问题 选择题

下列说法正确的是(  )

A.物质是不灭的,因此人类可以无限制开发和利用地球上的资源

B.化学工业是污染的罪魁祸首,因此应当限制化学的发展

C.化肥可以快速地提高农作物的产量,因此我们应当大力提倡使用

D.吸烟有害健康,是因为吸烟会产生多种有害的化学物质进入人体

答案

D

地球上的煤矿、石油、天然气等资源是有限的,人们不可能无限地开采。化学工业为人类的进步作出了前所未有的贡献,而且必将作出更大的贡献,只是我们在发展化学工业的同时要充分利用化学科学来控制、消除污染。化学肥料虽然能提高农作物的产量,但它在破坏土壤结构、污染水源、改变作物性能等方面的副作用也是不可忽略的,因此我们应当有限度地施用化肥。吸烟能产生尼古丁、一氧化碳、煤焦油等多种有害物质,所以,吸烟对人体有百害无一利。

While traveling abroad, Mr. Jackson Frank ran short of money. So he wrote to his brother, asking for $500. “Send the money by telegram,” he wrote, “to the Fisher Bank in P...”After a week he began calling at the Fisher Bank. He showed his passport. “ Nothing has come for you,” he was told. This went on for two weeks and Mr. Frank got very worried. He sent a telegram to his brother, but there was no reply. In the fourth week Mr. Frank was arrested for failing to pay his hotel bill. His passport was taken from him. He tried to explain the problem, but no one believed him. He was sent to prison for six days.

When he came out, he went immediately to the Fisher bank. The clerk he spoke to was a new man. “Have you received $500 for me?” he ask,” My name is Jackson Frank.” The clerk checked his books. “Yes, Jackson, it's here. It came by telegram.—let me see—oh, more than two months ago. We wondered where you were.” He showed Mr. Frank the order. The order read:” Pay Mr. Frank Jackson the sum of $500...” “ But my name is Jackson Frank, not Frank Jackson.” “ Oh, that's all right, sir. It was in our books under the letter ‘J', but it's your money.” The clerk laughed,” A human mistake, sir! We're all human beings, so we all make mistakes. A family name like Frank sounds strange to me.” Mr. Frank was silent. He really wanted to hit somebody. At last he said,” A human mistake—I think some humans need kicking.”
