核心考点
举一反三
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 smog (烟雾).
Many countries are making rules to fight 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 do not throw it on the
ground. We can to go 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 pollution.

| A new study has found no evidence that sunscreen, commonly used to reduce the risk of skin cancer, actually increase the risk. Researchers from the University of Iowa based their findings on a review of 18 earlier studies that looked at the association between sunscreen use and melanoma (黑素瘤). They said that they found flaws in studies that had reported associations between sunscreen use and higher risk of melanoma. Most health experts believe that by protecting the skin from the harmful effects of the sun, sunscreen helps prevent skin cancer, which is increasing in incidence (发生率) faster than any other cancer in the United States. But questions has been raised about sunscreen and whether it may has opposite effect, perhaps by allowing people to remain exposed to the sun longer without burning. The researchers said that among the problems with some earlier studies is that they often failed to take into account that those people most at risk for skin cancer-people with fair skin(白皙的肤色) and freckles (雀斑), for example-are more likely to use sunscreen. As a result, it may appear that sunscreen users get cancer more often. The studies, which generally relied on volunteers to recall their sunscreen use, were also unable to prove how well the products had been applied, said the new study. |
