Some poor people who had been shipwrecked held on to any bit of wood they could find.Nobody could imagine that a clever bird flying over the sea was able to save their lives.
The night was dark, though sometimes the moving clouds allowed a star or two to be seen in the sky.The poor men held on to any bit of wood they could find.They called to Marie for 1 , but she was far beyond the 2 of the human voice.At one o'clock in the morning, the water was getting 3 , and a strong wind had begun to blow.Suddenly 4 were seen in the distance: another ship! The 5 of the swimmers were heard on board, and willing hands pulled them out of the water.The 6 of the ship that had arrived on the scene so 7 to save their lives was Ellen.What had brought her to the exact spot through the 8 and the pathless sea? Her captain had known 9 about this wreck (沉船) and had indeed attempted to sail away from it.But, let him speak for himself.
I was forced by the wind, he said long afterwards, to 10 my course(航道).Just as I did it, a small 11 flew across the ship once or twice and then flew at my face.I took no 12 of this until exactly the same thing happened at a 13 time, which caused me to think it rather 14 , while I was thus 15 it, the same bird for the third time, made its appearance and 16 about in the same way as before.I was then persuaded to change my course 17 to the original one.I had not gone far 18 I heard strange noises; and when I tried to 19 where they came from.I found I was in the middle of the people who had been shipwrecked.I immediately did my best to 20 them.

The link between environment and poverty is central to that great race for sustainability. It is a pity, then, that several powerful fallacies (谬论) keep getting in the way of sensible debate. One popular myth is that trade and economic growth make poor countries' environmental problems worse: Growth, it is said, brings with it urbanization, higher energy consumption and industrialization —all factors that contribute to pollution and pose health risks.
Another common view is that poor countries should pollute now and clean up later. Certainly poor countries should not be made to adopt American or European environmental standards. But there is evidence to suggest that poor countries can and should try to tackle some environmental problems now, rather than wait till they have become richer.
One powerful—and until recently ignored—weapon in the fight for a better environment is local people. Much academic research has shown that the poor are often victims of resource depletion (损耗) : it tends to be rich locals or outsiders who are responsible for the worst exploitation (开发). Local people usually have a better knowledge of local ecological conditions than experts in faraway capitals, as well as a direct interest in improving the quality of life in their village.
1. From the first paragraph we can learn that——.
A. in developing countries 6 million people die from environmental factors each year
B. in developing countries 3 million people lose their lives each year because of water shortage
C. in developing countries environmental factors are the biggest cause for abnormal death
D. in developing countries more people die from malnutrition
2. According to the author, which of the following contributes most to environmental problems in poor countries?
A. poverty B. urban air pollution
C. water-related diseases D. rich locals and outsiders
3. The main idea of Para. 3 is
A. poor countries should pollute now and clean up later
B. poor countries should take environmental problems seriously as early as possible
C. poor countries should follow American or European environmental standards
D. some poor countries hold a false guideline in tackling environmental problems
4. According to the author, people who can play an important role in tackling environmental problems are ——.
A. rich locals B outsiders
C. local residents D environmental experts

Every year in developing countries, a million people die from urban air pollution and twice that number from exposure to stove smoke inside their homes. Another 3 million unfortunates die prematurely (过早的) every year from water-related diseases. All told, premature deaths and illnesses arising from environmental factors account for about a fifth of all diseases in poor countries, bigger than any other preventable factor, including malnutrition.
