Nowadays,there is a heated debate on whether pollutants should be cleaned in the air. Cleaning up the air,while good for our lungs,could make global warming worse. And the pollutants still go up around the air,along with carbon dioxide.
These pollutants are called aerosols and they include soot as well as mixtures of nitrogen (氮) and sulfur (硫) and other stuff into the air. Natalie Mahowald,a climate researcher at Cornell University,says,so far,scientists have mostly tried to understand what those aerosols do while they’re actually in the air.
“There are so many different kinds of aerosols,” she says. “Some are warm and some are cool. But in fact,humans are giving out a lot of extra aerosols,and they tend to cool for the most part. ”
The aerosols reflect sunlight back into space,or keep us cool. But it turns out that’s not all they do. These aerosols also influence how much carbon dioxide gets drawn out of the air by plants on land and in the sea.
“They can add nutrients,for example,to the ocean or to the land ,” Mahowald says. “But also while they’re in the atmosphere they can change the climate,and thus that also can influence the amount of carbon,the land or the ocean can take up. So there are quite a few different ways that aerosols can act on each other. ”
Mahowald’s results suggest that reducing those pollutants could be an even bigger problem than realized,when you consider that aerosols help remove carbon dioxide from the air by encouraging plant growth. Hard numbers on this effect are highly uncertain at the moment,but this could turn out to be quite significant.
And studying it is not easy because the effects aren’t well understood. For example,nitrogen can be a fertilizer (肥料) , but it can stop plant growing when nitrogen comes out of the air in acid form.
Right now it seems like we’re much more likely to clean up aerosol pollution,while increasing the amount of carbon dioxide in the air. So scientists,unfortunately,may have a chance to see whether this experiment on our planet should continue or not.
( ) 5. From Paragraph 2,we know that .
A. scientists have been aware of how aerosols work
B. Natalie Mahowald is an expert in climate
C. cleaning up the air is so popular
D. pollutants are under control so far
( ) 6. What does the last sentence of the passage imply?
A. Scientists will be in a dilemma.
B. The experiment will be successful.
C. Scientists will carry out the experiment.
D. Scientists have difficulty in the experiment.
( ) 7. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?
A. Pollutants in the Air
B. The Experiment on the Planet
C. The Reason for Global Warming
D. The Influence of Aerosols

If you’ve ever seen the way dog people interacted with their pets,it comes as no surprise that there’s some germ-exchanging going on there. A new study indicates that dog ownership specifically may be one of the biggest single contributors to what kinds of microbes living on your skin.
A team of researchers led by Se Jin Song at the University of Colorado,Boulder,took swabs (化驗(yàn)標(biāo)本) of the tongues,palms,forehead and faeces (排泄物) of members of 60 family households. Some of the families had children or household pets and some did not;dogs were the only pets swabbed.
Researchers then analyzed the DNA of the bacteria they found to determine how diverse the bacteria populations were. Not surprisingly,family members who lived together had more bacteria in common than members of separate households. Bacteria on the skin were especially similar within households,probably because we pass microbes through the air,through direct contact,and via the surfaces we touch.
The most surprising finding,however,was the large bacteria contribution Fidonad made. The skin bacteria of dog owners from different households were almost as similar as if they’d cohabited without a dog. Put another way,you and a friend across town who both own dogs share a skin ecosystem as alike as a married couple does.
The reason for this appears to be that dogs harbor some kinds of bacteria that are rare on human skin. One in particular,a family of bacteria called Methylophilaceae,was abundant in the mouths of dogs sampled as well as the skin of their owners—indicating “a common occurrence of oral-skin transfer between dogs and their owners”,according to the results published in the journal Life.
( ) 5. From the study,we know that .
A. some kinds of bacteria live on our skin because of dog ownership
B. nobody finds it surprising that there should be some germ-exchanging between dogs and their owners
C. only dog ownership contributes to the sort of microbes that live on our skin
D. there would most probably be no microbe on our skin if it were not for dogs
( ) 6. The research took the following factors into consideration EXCEPT .
A. varieties of swabs from members of 60 family households
B. families with children or household pets
C. families without children or household pets
D. dogs being the only pets in the households
( ) 7. Why did researchers analyze the DNA of the bacte ria they found?
A. To search for the way microbes pass from one member of a family to another.
B. To find out the exact number of the bacteria living on human skin and dog skin.
C. To decide whether the bacteria were of the same kind or not.
D. To prove that family members who lived together had the same bacteria as the members of separate households.
( ) 8. What does this passage mainly tell us?
A. It is unsafe to keep dogs because of microbes.
B. How many kinds of bacteria live on people’s skin because of dog ownership.
C. Dog ownership affects the kinds of microbes living on people’s skin.
D. What are the similarities between people who keep dogs and those who don’t.

Recently,our school has held the meaningful discussion on whether it is reasonable for middle school students to have classes on weekends. Some of our classmates believe we should have classes on weekends because we can make fully use of free time to review the lessons we had learnt. Some others are against the opinion,saying we had better to have a good rest on weekends so that we can work effective during the weekdays. The rest agree with neither of the opinion. They have the view which keeping the balance between work and play are important for us. They suggest one day of the weekend should used to learn our lessons and during the other day we do something interested or have a rest.
