  The sudden disappearance of a stranger made the writer think much about the world around us and the life of his own .

  We may look at the world around us, but somehow we manage not to see it until whatever we've become used to suddenly disappears. 1  , for example, the neatly-dressed woman I  2  to see or look at on my way to work each morning.

  For three years, no matter  3  the weather was like, she was always waiting at the bus stop around 8:00 am.On  4  days, she wore heavy clothes and a pair of woolen gloves.Summertime  5  out neat, belted cotton dresses and a hat pulled low over her sunglasses. 6  , she was an ordinary working

woman.Of course, I  7  all this only after she was seen no more.It was then that I realized how  8  I expected to see her each morning.You might say I  9  her.

  Did she have an accident? Something  10  ? I thought to myself about her  11  Now that she was gone, I felt I had  12  her.I began to realize that part of our  13  life probably includes such chance meetings with familiar  14  : the milkman you see at dawn, the woman who  15  walks her dog along the street every morning, the twin brothers you see at the library.Such people are  16  markers in our byes.They add weight to our  17  of place and belonging.

  Think about it. 18  , while walking to work, we mark where we are by  19  a certain building, why should we not mark where we are when we pass a familiar, though  20  ,person?

  Where do pesticides (杀虫剂) fit into the picture of environmental disease? We have seen that they now pollute soil, water, and food, that they have the power to make our streams fishless and our gardens and woodlands silent and bird less. Man, however much he may like to pretend the contrary, is part of nature. Can he escape a pollution that is now so thoroughly distributed throughout our world?

    We know that even single exposures to these chemicals, if the amount is large enough, can Cause extremely severe poisoning. But this is not the major problem. The sudden illness or death of farmers, farm workers, and others exposed to sufficient quantities of pesticides is very sad and should not occur. For the population as a whole, we must be more concerned with the delayed effects of absorbing small amounts of the pesticides that invisibly pollute our world.

    Responsible public health officials have pointed out that the biological effects of chemicals are cumulative over long periods of time, and that the danger to the individual may depend on the sum of the exposures received throughout his lifetime. For these very reasons the danger is easily ignored. It is human nature to shake off what may seem to us a threat of future disaster. “Men are naturally most impressed by diseases which have obvious signs,” says a wise physician, Dr. Rene Dubos, “yet some of their worst enemies slowly approach them unnoticed.”

    1. Which is closest in meaning to the sentence “Man... is part of nature”?

      A. Man pretends as if he does not belong to nature.

      B. Man can't escape his responsibility for environmental protection.

      C. Man appears indifferent to what happens in nature.

      D. Man can avoid the effects of environmental pollution.

   2. The sudden death caused by exposure to large amounts of pesticides——.

      A. is unavailable because people can not do without pesticides in fanning.

      B. is not the worst of the negative consequences resulting from the use of pesticides.

        C. now occurs most frequently among all accidental deaths.

     D. has sharply increased so as to become the center of public attention.

   3. People tend to ignore the delayed effects of exposure to chemicals because——

     A. the danger does not become apparent immediately

     B. limited exposure to them does little harm to people's health

     C. the present is more important for them than the future

     D. humans are capable of withstanding small amounts of poisoning

   4. It can be inferred from Dr Dubos' remark that

     A. diseases with obvious signs are easy to cure

     B. attacks by hidden enemies tend to be fatal

     C. people tend to overlook hidden dangers caused by pesticides

     D. people find invisible diseases difficult to deal with
