In a large American city not long again many paintings were damaged by “bad” air. In New York City in 1996, 168 people died and thousands became ill from fumes(烟气) in the air.

Air pollution, or dirty air, is caused by many things. Great clouds of smoke come from factory chimneys(烟囱). Cars send smoke as fumes into the air. Burning waste fills the air with bits of dirt. Even burning leaves add smoke to the air.

Sometimes, airplanes cannot find their landing spots through the smoke. Smoke of all kinds is bad to breathe and can do harm to the body.

Still, we cannot live without air. We must find a way to clean the air we have.

  In time, we may have factories that are run by atomic energy. Our cars may run on smoke-free electric power. Scientists are also working on new ways to keep the oil burned by cars from making fumes. Waste may be buried in the sand on ocean floors.

  These changes might keep our air clean in the years to come. But until then, many scientists are looking for new ways to make air cleaner now.

  A. There is no hope to keep the air clean.

B. Air plane landing causes air pollution.

  There are many single parents because there are many divorces(离婚) in the United States. A young woman who gets married must think carefully about having a child. There is 50 percent chance that she will have to take care of that child alone someday. Here is the story of one single parent who is happy with her life.

  My biggest problem is money. When Ron and I divorced, he let me have the small house the children and I live in. I’m glad I have it because it’s good for the children. Now I have to pay for it every month and pay the bills. That’s difficult. I make about $18,000 a year at my job. Ron has to pay me $450 a month to help with the children. Everything is very expensive now. There isn’t enough money for everything. I have to be very careful.
