25、don has always been known for its black fogs. “ In the winter of 1952，a milky white fog rolled into the city. As the smoke poured into the air, it was so hard to see that people had to walk in front of the buses to guide them. In this way, the most serious air pollution disaster in history began. Wh
26、en it was over, more than 4,000 people had been killed by the thick black smog.New York City has had several London-type smogs since 1950. Each time, there were from 100 to 400 deaths caused by the smog. Although these smogs were not as deadly as London s,New York City has the worst air pollution pr
27、oblem in the United States.In all the killer smogs, factories and homes poured smoke and fumes into the air from the furnaces. The chemical fumes combined with the water droplets in the fog to form harmful substances. These substances caused the illness of those who breathed the polluted air.Usually
28、, such harmful fumes rise into the upper air and are blown away by the wind. But sometimes there is an unusual weather condition called a temperature inversion. A layer of cold air remains near the ground as smoke and fumes pour into it. This is covered by an upper layer of warm air that acts like a
29、 lid. It prevents the polluted cooler air from rising. The harmful fumes pile up and make people ill. The smog may be so thick that airports are closed and chains of collisions occur on the highways.Another type of smog occurs in Los Angeles. Here the weather may be clear and sunny. But stinging eye
30、s and dry coughs show that harmful chemicals fill the air. The smog is due to invisible gases, mostly from automobile exhaust. Because these chemicals are changed by the sun high up in the air, it is called photochemical smog. It contains automobile exhaust fumes and nitrogen oxides changed by the s
31、uns rays. Added to these are sulfur dioxide and other fumes from factories and oil refineries. Photochemical smog is found in many large cities all over the world.Killer smogs don，t happen very often, fortunately. But in Beijing, a combination of automobile exhaust fumes, home furnace smoke, and fac
32、tory waste gases pours into the air. This may also happen in the suburbs, or out in the country, where large factories have been built. A number of harmful substances have been found in the air there. When these substances are breathed in day after day ，the health of the population is affected.51.Wh
33、y do people call this phenomenon black fog ？A. It is black and dirty.B. It can affect the health.C. It can kill people.D. It is too thick for people to see something.52.What can reduce the air pollution according to the passage?A. Water.B. Wind.C. The sun.D. Cold air.53.When photochemical smog happe
34、ns in the city, _.A. many people will be killedB. black smoke may pour into the airC. the weather may be fineD. people have to walk to work54.From the passage we know that the most serious black smog disaster took place in_A, LondonB. New YorkC. Los AngelesD. BeijingBThere are some new drivers going
35、 back to school. Teens who have recently gotten their drivers licenses may be taking the wheel to drive to school this fall. However, parents fear when their teen starts driving. And it turns out that such parental fears are justifiedso its worth reviewing how to keep your teen safe while he or she
36、is behind the wheel.Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death in U. S. teens. Drivers 16 to 19 years old are at the greatest risk for crashes. In fact, their risk is 4 times greater than for older drivers. The teens at the greatest risk are those who are male, those carrying other teenage
37、 passengers in the car, and those still in their first year of driving. Nearly 50 percent of teen deaths related to automobile crashes happen on Fridays Saturdays or Sundays between the hours of 3 p. m. and midnight.Why are teens at higher risk for motor vehicle crashes?Development. Teens haven * t
38、completely matured mentally and have greater risk-taking behaviors, possibly because they tend to underestimate the risk associated with a particular behavior. Teens also have a greater tendency to speed and to drive too close to the cars in front of them.No seatbelts. Teens have the lowest rate of
39、seatbelt use among all driving groups.Alcohol. At least 25 percent of motor vehicle deaths in teens are related to alcohol use.Technological distractions (分散注意力）.Cell phones, texting，MP3 players, and the like can all distract drivers greatly一and who more than teenagers?Be aware of your teen s drivin

44、 paragraph in order to_.A.offer parents practical suggestionsB.summarize teen s driving practicesC.advocate different driving habitsCYou may want to think twice after posting a new photo or update to your Facebook profile. That s because new research has found that social media use can lower some us
45、ers ，sense of self-control over their lives. The research, which will be published in the Journal of Consumer Research, was based on the responses of 541 Facebook users in the United States.Using online social networks can have a positive effect on self-esteem(自尊)and well- being, However, these incr
46、eased feelings of self-worth can have a damaging effect on behavior，” said researchers Keith Wilcox of Columbia University and Andrew Stephen of the University of Pittsburgh. ” Because consumers care about the image they present to close friends，social network use enhances self-esteem in users who a
47、re focused on close friends while searching for , information on their social network. This momentary increase in self-esteem, leads them to display less self-control after looking through a social network.In other words, social media users had more self-esteem after using networks like Facebook. Ho
48、wever, that momentary improvement in self-esteem lowered their self-control and led them to do what they want, even if this is not good for them .In particular, the researchers found that social media users were more likely to do too much drinking and eating and have a higher body-mass index. Freque
49、nt Facebook users also were more likely to have certain financial problems，including a lower credit score and higher levels of debt.The researchers tied these feelings to the observation that social media users are less likely to exhibit modesty on their profiles, since feedback is not immediate.“Th
50、ese results are concerning given the increased time people spend using social networks，as well as the worldwide proliferation of access to social networks anywhere ,anytime via smartphones and other small devices， Wilcox and Stephen wrote. “ Given that self-control is important for maintaining socia
51、l order and personal health and happiness, this unnoticeable effect could have widespread impact. This is particularly true for adolescents and young adults who are the heaviest users of social networks and have grown up using social networks as a normal part of their daily lives.“59.When may social
52、 media users lower their self-control?A.Before browsing networks.B. While eating too much.B.While scanning networks.D.

54、sier, and computers that make complex problems almost childishly simple. But when it comes to which invention is the best, the Japanese may not be thinking with their heads or their hearts, but their stomachs. They named instant noodles the best invention of the 20th century. As for life-changing te
55、chnology, that came in at No. 2： karaoke.The admittedly non-scientific survey by the Fuji Research Institute attached to Tokyo University asked 2,000 adults in the Tokyo region to rate the greatest inventions of the 20th century in three categories： manufactured goods, culture and technology. Respon
56、dents were asked to take into consideration worldwide acceptance of the various customs and inventions. An astonishing 692 placed instant noodles, an Japanese “ invention in 1958，at the top of the list. Instant noodles went into commercial production in 1971, and almost 50 billion cups are now consu

They were ranked b
58、ehind instant noodles and off-key howling. Known as ” Poketto Monsters (Pocket MonstersM ) in Japan ，Pikachu and his popular little friends came in at No. 8. In view of practicality, automobile-related technology came in at No. 9 automobiles themselves, invented overseas, were not ranked at all. Sus
59、hi ，perhaps the original fast food in Japan, rounded out the top list.While the Fuji Institutes survey may not have been the most scientific, it does suggest one thing: technology may rule the world, but at least in Tokyo ? it begins and ends with the tastebuds(味蕾）63.Instant noodles were considered

63、，the federal debt ceiling is the only other situation that more than half of Americans say is hurting them financially.
