13.Since the beginning of the year,smog(霧霾) has covered parts of North China.In January,Beijing saw only five days without smog.The rising PM 2.5 readings terrified many people,and some health experts said that whenever the smog gets serious,hospitals receive more patients suffering acute respiratory (呼吸系統(tǒng))and heart diseases.
Later,news of polluted underground water in some provinces scared people who wondered whether the water they drink is safe.So the need to emphasize environmental protection while developing the economy is heard everywhere.
Smog is especially a common concern.As a popular online post said,air may be the only thing that is equal for everyone,despite your income or profession.People with higher incomes are able to drink only bottled spring water and eat only organic food by paying higher prices,but they breathe the same air as everyone else.
At a meeting on Monday,many representatives have expressed their concerns about the air quality,too.One talked about his experience in Beijing."After taking a taxi from the capital airport to my hotel,which took about an hour,I washed my nose and found the inside of my nose was black.We should ask ourselves this question:Why do we want to develop?It's for living a better life.Dirty air is definitely not a better life,"he said.
China needs to develop its economy and invest (投資) in hightech.Every Chinese has a dream to make China stronger.But without blue sky,clean water and safe food,the achievements in the economy will become meaningless.Space technologies are not to be developed for building a base on Mars so that one day all human beings can move to the red planet because they have destroyed Earth.
What the public wants is a strong and beautiful China.The great efforts must be made to promote W5P2 ecological progress and build a beautiful China.The words have shown the central government's determination to address the environment issue.

分析 文章主要講的是發(fā)展經濟和保護環(huán)境的關系.今年年初以來,霧霾不斷籠罩中國北方的一些城市.霧霾讓更多的人患上了呼吸系統(tǒng)疾病和心臟病,霧霾成為人們最為關注的問題.在發(fā)展經濟的同時,人們開始關注環(huán)境保護.
解答 38.A 細節(jié)理解題.根據第一段"The rising PM2.5 readings…h(huán)ospitals receive more patients suffering acute respiratory (呼吸系統(tǒng)) and heart diseases"可知,霧霾導致PM2.5上升,患病的人數增加,B、C、D正確,霧霾不會使人們的收入增加,A項錯誤,故選A.
39.D 細節(jié)理解題.根據第四段"Smog is especially a common concern…air may be the only thing that is equal for everyone"可知,霧霾成為人們最普遍的關切是因為每個人都不可避免地需要呼吸空氣,故選D.
40.C 猜測詞義題."because they have destroyed Earth"是because引導的原因狀語從句,they指代的是主句中的"human beings",故選C.
41.D 推理判斷題.根據倒數第二段"Every Chinese has a dream to make China stronger.But without blue sky,clean water and safe food,the achievements in the economy will become meaningless."和最后一段"What the public wants is a strong and beautiful China.The great efforts must be made to promote ecological progress and build a beautiful China."可知,人們想要的是一個既強大又美麗的中國,為了發(fā)展經濟,不能以犧牲環(huán)境為代價,應該在保護環(huán)境的同時發(fā)展經濟,故選D.
