【单选题】Britain’s emissions of greenhouse gases, blamed by many scientists for contributing to global warming, have fallen by 14 percent since 1990, according to the latest government report.
British lakes and rivers are also on the road to recovery from acid rain poisoning, following successful curbs to air pollution from cars and heavy industry.
The report by the NationalAtmosphericEmissions Inventory (NAEI) attributed the drop in greenhouse gas emissions to several factors including: the introduction of catalytic converters on cars, a move toward low sulphur and lead-free petrol and a switch to gas from coal and oil in power generation.
Environment Minister Michael Meacher said the downward trend was welcome, but warned of complacency.
"Even though these figures are encouraging, we must not be complacent. There are still significant problems where we need to do more, for example, to further reduce greenhouse gases and harmful pollutants (污染物) such as ammonia and particulate matter, " he said in a statement.
The government has a target to cut greenhouse gases by 23 percent by 2010 on 1990 level, This is almost double the target of 12. 5 percent to which the UK is committed under the Kyoto Protocol and there are signs that emissions are rising as generators return to using coal-fired power stations in the face of rising natural gas prices.
TheDepartment ofEnvironment Food and RuralAffairsDEFRA、said substantial curbs on sulphur dioxide emissions across the UK andEurope had cut acid rain by half over the last 12 years. "Damaged freshwater lakes and streams are showing signs of recovery, " it saiD、
ButDEFRA、warned of a new threat: "Nitrogen oxides and ammonia are the main air pollutants that must be tackled to stop future damage. "
The bulk ofBritain’s ammonia emissions come from farm animal manure (粪肥), causing over-enrichment of land and waterways, said the report.Certain species rampage unchecked through this ultra-fertile environment, smothering the slower growing plants beneath them and choking streams and rivers. Nitrogen oxides enter the atmosphere from car exhausts and industry, creating health-damaging ozone and contributing to acid rain.
Which of the following hasBritain NOT done to decrease emissions of greenhouse gases
A、Introduced catalytic converters on cars.
B、Encouraged use of low sulphur and lead-free petrol.
C、Replaced coal and oil with gas in power generation.
D、Closed down some heavy industry factories.

【单选题】In her 26 years of teachingEnglish, Shannon McCuire has seen countless misplaced commas, misspelled words and sentence fragments.
But the instructor at US’s Louisiana State University inBaton Rouge said her job is getting harder every day.
"I kid you not, the number of errors that I’ve seen in the past few years have multiplied five times. " she saiD、
Experts say e-mail and instant messaging are at least partly to blame for an increasing indifference toward the roles of grammar, spelling and sentence structure.
They say the problem is most noticeable in college students and recently graduates.
"They used to at least feel guilty (about mistakes)," said NaomiBaron, professor of linguistics atAmerican University in Washington,D、C、 "They didn’t necessarily write a little better, but at least they felt guilty. "
Ironically,Baron’s latest book,Alphabet toEmail: How WrittenEnglishEvolved and Where It’s Heading, became a victim of sloppy proofreading. The book’s title is capitalized differently on the cover, spine and title page. "People used to lose their jobs over this," she saiD、 "And now they just say ‘whatever. ’"
"Whatever" describes Jeanette Henderson’s attitude toward writing. The sophomore at the University of Louisiana at Monroe admits that her reliance on spellcheck has hurt her grades inEnglish class. "Computer has spoiled us. " she saiD、
But the family and consumer sciences major believes her future bosses won’t mind the mistakes as much as her professor does. "They’re not going to check semicolons, commas and stuff like that. " Henderson saiD、
LSU’s McGuire said she teaches her students to use distinct writing styles that fit their purpose.
She emphasizes that there’s the informal language of an e-mail to a friend, but there’s also the well thought out and structured academic or professional style of writing.
It’s not just e-mail and instant messaging that are contributing to slack writing habits.
Society as a whole is becoming more informal.Casual wear at work used to be reserved for Friday, for example, but is now commonplace at most offices. There’s also a greater emphasis on youth culture, and youth tend to use instant messaging more than adults do.
English language has been neglected at different points in history but always rebounds.During Shakespearen times, for example, spelling wasn’t considered important, and early publishers rarely proofreaD、
There will likely be a social force that recognizes the need for clear writing and swings the pendulum back.
We can infer from the passage that college students ______.
A、are the victims of the deteriorating education
B、mostly have very had handwriting
C、don’t think they’re writing badEnglish
D、are ashamed of their poor writing skills
