2、e, head, run, predict, abundant, conception, reduceFor many environmentalists, the world seems to be getting worse. They have developed a hit list of our main fears: natural resources are 1 out? The population is ever growing, leaving less and less to eat? Species are becoming 2 in vast numbers, and
3、 the planets air and water are becoming ever more polluted.But a quick look at the facts shows a different picture. First, energy and other natural resources have become more 3 not less so, since the book The Limits to Growth was published in 1972 by a group of scientists. Second, more food is now p
4、roduced per 4 of the worlds population than at any time in history. Fewer people are 5 . Third, although species are indeed becoming extinct, only about 0.7% of them are expected to disappear in the next 50 years, not 2550%, as has so often been 6 . And finally, most forms of environmental pollution
5、 either appear to have been 7 , or are transient - associated with the early stages of industrialization and therefore best cured not by restricting economic growth, but by 8 it. One form of pollution - the release of greenhouse gases that causes global warming - does appear to be a phenomenon that
6、is going to extend well into our future, but its total impact is unlikely to 9 a devastating problem. A bigger problem may well turn out to be an inappropriate response to it.Yet opinion polls suggest that many people nurture the belief that environmental standards are declining and some factors see
7、m to cause this disjunction between 10 and reality.Passage Two: fill in the gaps with the proper form of given wordstransplant, solution, gradually, transport, elemental, conflict, continually, mobile,couple, agriculture, including, compromise, require, primary, consistThe typical pre-industrial fam
8、ily not only had a good many children, but numerous other dependents as well-grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins. Such extended families were suited for survival in slow paced 11 societies. But such families are hard to 12 . They are immobile.Industrialism demanded masses of workers ready and ab
9、le to move off the land in pursuit of jobs, and to move again whenever necessary. Thus the extended family 13 shed its excess weight and the so-called nuclear family emerged-a stripped-down, portable family unit 14 only of parents and a small set of children. This new style family, far more 15 than
10、the traditional extended family, became the standard model in all the industrial counties.Super-industrialism, however, the next stage of eco-technological development, 16 even higher mobility. Thus we may expect many among the people of the future to carry the streamlining process, a stepfather by
11、remaining children, cutting the family down to its more 17 components, a man and a woman. Two people, perhaps with matched careers, will prove more efficient at navigating through education and social status, through job changes and geographic relocations, than the ordinarily child-cluttered family.
12、A 18 may be the postponement of children, rather than childlessness. Men and women today are often torn in 19 between a commitment to career and a commitment to children. In the future, many 20 will sidestep this problem by deferring the entire task of raising children until after retirement.Passage

14、es have some 21 skills that could help the treatment of human diseases.Pigeons are often seen as dirty birds and an urban 22 , but they are just the latest in a long line of animals that have been found to have abilities to help humans. Despite having a brain no bigger than the 23 of your index fing
15、er, pigeons have a very impressive 24 memory. Recently it was shown that they could be trained to be as accurate as humans at detecting breast cancer in images.Rats are often 25 with spreading disease rather than 26 it, but this long-tailed animal is highly 27 . Inside a rats nose are up to 1,000 di
16、fferent types of olfactory receptors , whereas humans only have 100 to 200 types. This gives rats the ability to detect 28 smells. As a result, some rats are being put to work to detect TB. When the rats detect the smell, they stop and rub their legs to 29 a sample is infected.Traditionally, a hundred samples would take lab technicians more than two days to 30, but for a rat it takes less
