When the air is plluted we wear masks t prtect ur lungs(肺). What abut bees and butterflies? They can’t wear masks.
New Scientist magazine recently reprted findings frm James Ryalls and his team at the University f Reading, UK. Their study fund that air pllutin is harmful(有害的) t pllinatrs(传花粉者)-insects like bees and butterflies. They can’t smell flwers because f the pllutin.
Pllinatrs are imprtant. They spread pllen(花粉) amng plants with flwers. This helps the flwer prduce seed and fruit. Withut pllinatrs, farms cannt make fd. We all need pllinatrs.
T d their study, Ryalls’ team built eight areas. Then, they piped(吹送) nitrgen xide(氧化氮) and zne(臭氧) int six f these areas. The ther tw areas had nrmal air. They were the cntrl grup.
“The results were much mre severe(严重的) than we thught,” said Ryalls. The levels f pllutin in their tests were similar t “nrmal rad traffic”. In such cnditins, 70 percent fewer insects entered the area. Once they were there, they didn’t hang arund. Visits t flwers decreased by up t 90 percent.
Scientists explained that gases like nitrgen xide and zne can break dwn the scents(气味) f flwers. This makes it hard fr insects t find their fd.
Maybe the mst terrible thing is that the researchers created pllutin levels that were legal(合法的) in the UK. Shannn Olssn, a scientist in India, called the results “imprtant” because they shw that “safe” levels f pllutin keep pllinatrs away.
“Air pllutin is anther stress n insects,” said Ryalls. “That adds t all the ther stresses causing their numbers t decline(减少).”
36．What prblem may air pllutin cause t pllinatrs?
A．They may have less fd t eat.
B．They may eat mre fruit and vegetables.
C．They can’t smell flwers, s they spread(传播) less pllen.
D．They may stp flwers giving ut scents.
37．Hw did the scientists d the research?
A．They recrded(记录) insects’ activities n farms next t busy rads.
B．They brught clean air t places with severe air pllutin.
C．They piped nitrgen xide and zne int eight areas.
D．They cmpared(比较) insect behavir in areas with plluted air and nrmal air.
38．What happened t pllinatrs in areas with air pllutin?
A．They fund fd mre easily.B．They culd nt find each ther.
C．They hung ut(外出) mre ften.D．They visited flwers less.
39．What des Paragraph 7 shw?
A．Pllinatrs will nly wrk in a “safe” envirnment.
B．Even “safe” levels f pllutin influence(影响) pllinatrs badly.
C．The law will have less cntrl ver air pllutin.
D．An envirnment that is safe fr insects is nt safe fr humans.
40．What is the experiment in the passage mainly abut?

⑥My ld address bk nw sits n tp f the new ne. The magnet(磁铁) n its cver is as strng as ever, keeping all the peple frm A t Z in rder. But my new address bk whispers a stry f new pssibilities. It ffers me space fr thse new friends that I haven’t met yet. I’ll get t it. It’s just a matter f time.
