Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.
People and the sources of air pollutions are found in the same places. This areas that cities
with
large
population
have
the
biggest
problem
of
dirty
airs.
Air
pollutions
is
caused
by
many
different things. A major source of air pollution is the gas fumes(
烟尘
) from cars. Another major
source
of
dirty

the
burning
of
coal
and
oil
for
energy.
This
energy

to
make
electricity.
Of course, much more electricity is used in the city than in the country.
On the average, we throw away more trash and garbage than years before. The burning of
garbage leads to air pollution.
Many major industries are also the excuse of the dirty air in and
around cities.
The flames from iron, steel, chemical, and petroleum production add particles

尘)
to the air
The
effects
of
air
pollution
range
from
mild
headaches
to
death.
The
levels
of
pollution
found in heavy traffic may cause headaches or loss of clear sight.
Wherever coal and oil are used
for
fuel,
fumes
may
kill
trees
and
plants.
In
some
of

these
endanger
the
lives
of
human beings by leading to lung diseases and causing early deaths.
