閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容，從短文后所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中，選擇最佳答案。

  Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today. People didn’t have modern machines. There was no modern medicine, either.

  Life today has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and polluted our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution. It’s bad for all the living things in the world.

  Cars, planes and factories all polluted air so thick that it is like a quilt (被子) over a city. This kind of quilt is called smog (煙霧).

  Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. Factories must now clean their water before it is thrown away, they mustn’t blow dirty smoke into the air.

  We need to do many other things. We can put waste things in the dustbin and not throw it on the ground. We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car. If there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution.

  Rules are not enough. Every person must help to fight pollution.

閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容，完成表格中所缺的信息。

     Some people prefer to make friends with people who are very much like them while others prefer friends who are very different. There are advantages to both types of friendship. If a man chooses a friend similar to himself, there is no problem that they will share many common interests. They may have similar goals in life. This means that they will be able to help each other in achieving their goals. Two people who are very similar will feel comfortable with each other and may understand each other' s feelings better. Their friendship may be deeper and last longer.

     There are also many advantages of making friends with someone of opposite interests and even character. In this type of friendship, the two people complement (補充) each other. If one is weak in some ways, the other is strong. While two people with similar goals may find themselves in competition, hut those who want different things can always support each other. Those who have different interests can introduce each other to new experience and so enrich (豐富) their knowledge.
