Pollution

Hundreds of years ago，life was much harder than it is today.People didn't have modern machines.There was no modern medicine，either.

Life today has brought new problems.One of the biggest is pollution.Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty.It kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water.Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily.Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution.It's bad to all living things in the world.

Cars，planes and factories all pollute our air every day.Sometimes the polluted air is so thick that it is like a quilt over a city.This kind of quilt is called haze (霧霾)．

Many countries are making rules to fight against pollution.Factories must now clean their water before it is thrown away，and they mustn't blow dirty smoke into the air.

We need to do many other things.We can put waste things in the dustbin and not throw it on the ground.We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car.If there are fewer people driving，there will be less pollution.

Rules are not enough.Every person must help to fight against pollution.

When making a promise, why do Chinese people like to hook pinkies (勾小指)?

In China, children like to make promises and show their t1. in each other by hooking pinkies with each other. They then say, “A pinkie promise must be k2. for 100 years.” Maybe you used to hook pinkies with your buddies, didn’t you?

No one is sure how long this h3.has remained and where it comes from. It’s said that it has something to do with the role of fingers in Chinese c4.. As we all know, the Chinese character for “finger” has the s5. pronunciation as a character that means “aim” or “purpose” . The latter can sometimes refer to someone’s thoughts. So hooking fingers can be seen a6.the exchanging of thoughts. And it shows that the two believe in each other.

That might be why the fingers play an important part in making promises. Chinese people not only use them to complete a promise, it is also common for some ancient people to cut fingers w7. making a blood oath (歃血盟). When someone swears (發(fā)誓), they use their finger to p8. to the sky.

Generally speaking, people hook fingers when they are making a serious promise. In some gangster (黑幫) movies, if a person breaks a promise, p9. he or she will have their little finger cut off!

Of course, this kind of thing is not very likely to happen in r10. life. But we can still see how important “pinkie promises” can be.
