36、 Chongqing are “foggy” today. The “fog” was in fact smog, a mixture of smoke and fog. In other words, it was made by air pollution. In London, some of this pollution came from factories, but much of it came from the coal(煤)that people burnt in their houses to keep warm during the winter. By the 1950

37、s, Londons smog problem had become so bad that the government decided to do something to clean the air. A new law was made and nobody could burn coal in any British city. Within a few years, the air became much cleaner. There were no more “pea-soupers”.Many Chinese cities now face the same sort of p

38、roblem with air pollution that London faced 40 or 50 years ago. However, this problem is more difficult for Chinese cities to solve. One reason is that more of the pollution comes from the factories, rather than from coal burnt in peoples houses. If these factories were closed, this would harm the e

39、conomy and lots of people would lose their jobs. Another reason is that changing from coal to cleaner fuel(燃料), like gas, is quite expensive.However, the air in many Chinese cities is becoming cleaner and cleaner, as the government and people pay more and more attention to cutting down pollution.

40、 a result, there are fewer “pea-soupers” in Beijing than there used to be.根据短文内容，选择最佳答案，并在答题卡上按要求作答。1What was the main reason for air pollution in London?AThere was too much smoke in the sky.BThere were too many factories in the city.CPeople burnt too much coal in the houses.DThe city was too big fo

These ancient huge stones have been standing on the Salisbury Plains(索尔兹伯平原 ) in E

44、ngland for thousands of years. Who build Stonehenge? Some people said that the ancient Greeks built it. Some people said that it was a site where UFO landed. Its still a mystery.However, it is clear that the first stones arrived at Stonehenge around the same time as the ancient Egyptians were buildi

45、ng the pyramids. These stones can only be found in South Wales, nearly 150 miles away.
