As people live on the earth, we should be fully ready to deal with the dangers. If we do not pay more attention to the problems caused by air pollution, our earth may no longer be a healthy place for plants, animals, and people to live.Cleaning up the air is a job that all countries must work on. The problems caused by air pollution can be solved, but a lot of work needs to be done. Governments around the world are beginning to work together to lower the levels of dangerous gases in theatmosphere(大气层). If this can be done well, the ozone layer(臭氧层) can rebuild itself, global warming can be controlled, and acid rain can be reduced.In 1967, the government of the United States passed the Clean Air Act. More parts were added to the act in 1970, 1977 and 1990. As a result of these laws, cars now must reduce the amounts of harmful gases. Power factories must use "clean coal" methods to reduce acid-rain gases they produce.In 1970, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was set up. The EPA's job is to make sure that the environmental laws are being followed and to find out new dangers and offer solutions. The first Earth Day was also celebrated in 1970.While it is very important to address with air on a global scale, each person can also do something to protect the Earth. Here are some things you can do every day:1) Turn down the heat and air conditioning.2) Use the dishwasher only when they are full of dishes.3) Practice the 3 Rs: recycle, reuse, and reduce.4) Plant a tree.( ) 56.

In 1970C. In 1977( ) 60. In our daily life, we can do something to protect the earth by _______.A. using more carsB. riding the bikesC. cutting down treesCOne day a little girl found two weak birds when she walked in the forests. She took them home and put them in a small cage.Every day she feeds them with love and the birds grow strong. Every morning they say “hello” to her with a beautiful song. The girl loves them very much and wants their singing to last (持续) forever (永远).One day the girl left the cage’s door open. The larger and s tronger of the two birds flew out of the cage. The girl watched worriedly when it circled (盘旋) high above her. She was afraid that it would fly away and she would never see it again. So when it flew close, she caught it at once. She was very happy that she held it tightly (紧紧地) in her hand! Suddenly, she felt something happened to the bird. She opened her hand and was surprised to find that the bird couldn’t move any more and died. Her love for the bird killed it.She noticed the other bird jumping in the cage. She could feel that it wanted to be free. It hoped to fly into the clear, blue sky. She lifted (举起) it from the cage and flew it into the air. The bird circled once, twice, three times…When the bird flew happily in the sky, she was so glad. Just then the bird flew closer and sat softly on her shoulder (肩膀).
