21. The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication means(通讯设备). Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.
Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, Man moved to another place. But this is no longer true. Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.
Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us angry more easily.
Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories in the city, and from putting dirty smoke into the air.
Pollution by carbon dioxide is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It is caused by heavy traffic. It is true that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.
The earth is our home. We must take care of it. That means keeping the land, water and air clean. And we must take care of the rise in population at the same time.
64. Our world is becoming much smaller_________.
A. because the earth is being polluted day and night
B. because science is developing
C. because of the rise in population
D. because the earth is blown away by the wind every year
65. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution because_________.
A. it does harm to all living things in the world      B. it makes much noise
C. it makes our rivers and lakes dirty               D. it makes us angry more easily
66. Which of the following is NOT the possible way to reduce air pollution?
A. Stop people from burning coal in the houses and factories in the city
B. Stop putting dirty smoke into the air
C. Encourage people to go to work by bike or on foot instead of driving a car
D. Don’t throw rubbish into the river.
67. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. The problem of pollution is not so serious because there are not so many people living on the earth.
B. The pollution of the earth grows as fast as the world’s population does.

22. I was reading these interesting stories behind a group of great logos in the world. Personally, Nike is my favorite one – it’s so simple. And I liked the stories behind them, which made me forget all other things. McDonald’s, Apple, Mercedes Benz and Adidas own great logos as well, and they are among my favorites.
Nike
In the Greek myth, Nike is the goddess of victory and the source of inspiration for soldiers. This logo represents the wing in the famous statue of the Greek goddess. Nike’s logo was designed by Carolyn Davidson in 1971 for $ 35, and was registered as a trademark in 1995.
McDonald’s
The logo was designed in 1962 by Jim Schindler to resemble the arch shaped(拱形的) signs on the side of the company’s then walk-up hamburger stand. Later on, the two golden arches were combined together to form the M. The McDonald’s name was added to the logo in 1968.
Apple
There are different stories behind Apple’s logo. The first logo was a reference to the religious story of Adam and Eve, in which the apple represented the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge. One year later, the second logo was designed in 1977 by Steve Jobs and Ronald Wayne, and it described Sir Isaac Newton sitting under an apple tree. This logo didn’t stay long. One year later it was replaced almost immediately by graphic designer Rob Janoff’s “rainbow apple”, a rainbow-color1 ed silhouette(轮廓) of an apple with a bite taken out of it. And then the rainbow-color1 ed apple was replaced by the one-color1 ed logo in 1998. It has not been changed so far.
Mercedes Benz
The Mercedes Benz logo, which was originally created by Gottlieb Daimler in 1909, consists of a simple description of a three-pointed star that represents its rule of the land, the sea and the air. The company was founded by Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach. Mercedes is the name of Maybach’s elder daughter, while Benz came as a result of a combination with Benz & Cie and DMG in 1926.
Adidas
The Adidas logo, which was created by the founder of the company Adi Dassler, represents mountains, pointing towards the challenges that are seen ahead and goals that can be achieved. The logo was used for the first time in 1967.
51. What does the author think of the stories of the great logos?
A. They are boring.                  B. They are attractive 
C. They are out of date.                      D. They are practical.
52. What does Nike’s logo stand for?
A. The wing of the Greek goddess.             B. The source of inspiration for soldiers.
C. The statue of the Greek goddess.             D. The goddess of victory
53. We can learn that Apple’s present logo is ______.
A. the religious story of Adam and Eve          B. a bitten apple with only one color1
C. Newton’s sitting under an apple tree          D. the rainbow-color1 ed bitten apple
54. ______ stands for the rule of the land, the sea and the air.
A. Nike’s logo      B. Apple’s logo     C. The Mercedes logo   D. The Adidas logo
55. Which of the following time orders describes the births of the great logos?
A. Mercedes Benz –McDonald’s – Nike – Apple  B. Nike – McDonald’s – Apple – Mercedes Benz
C. McDonald’s – Apple – Nike – Mercedes Benz  D. Nike – Mercedes Benz – McDonald’s – Apple
