Some people say they have an answer to the problems of car crowding and pollution. In many cities, hundreds of people 1 bikes to work every day. In New York City, some bike riders have even founded(成立) a group: Bike for a Better City. They say if 2 people rode bikes to work, there would be fewer cars and less dirty air.

Long, long ago there lived a poor young boy in a small village. He was about ten years old. Every afternoon, he walked around the village selling his cooking oil(油). He carried the oil in a small wooden basin(盆). After he sold all of his oil one day, he was very tired. He thought that he would take a rest. He left his wooden basin under a tree, put the money in it and then fell asleep.
About two hours later, he woke up. He looked into the basin and found that his money was gone. He went at once to see a woman judge(法官). The judge listened to the boy’s story very carefully. She thought for a while, and then said to the men in her office, “Go and get all the village people here.” When all the village people came, she asked that everyone should put a coin(硬币) into the water in a big basin. About half the people had put their coins in before a young man came up. He also put his coin into the water.
“Wait a minute,” the judge said. “You took away the boy’s money, didn’t you?”
The young man’s face turned red. “Yes-yes-yes,” he said. “How did you know that?”
The judge said, “You see, after you had put your coin into the water, some oil came up to the top. Your money must have been taken from the oil basin.”

Fire can help people in many ways. But it can be very harmful. Fire can make water hot and the house warm, give light and cook food. But fire can burn things, too. It can make trees, houses, animals and other things catch fire(着火). If some people can’t run away from fire, it can kill them. This can be seen in every country. Sometimes big fire can burn forests and destroy(毁坏) many tall buildings.
Nobody knows clearly when people began to make fire, but there are many interesting stories about the first time a man or a woman started a fire. One story from Australia tells about a man a long time ago, he went up to the sun and brought fire down.
Today people know how to make a fire with matches(火柴). Children sometimes like to play with them. But matches can be very dangerous. The match can burn a piece of paper and then it can burn a house. A small fire can become a big one. Fire kills many people every year. So you must be careful with fire.

Thirty years ago, Lake Ponkapog in Hartwell, New Jersey, was full of life. Many birds and animals lived beside the water, which was full of fish. Now there are few birds, animals, and fish. The lake water is polluted(污染的). It is in a color of dirty brown, and it is filled with strange plants.
How did this happen? First, we must think about how water gets into Lake Ponkapog. When it rains, water comes into the lake from all around. In the past, there were forests all around Lake Ponkapog, so the rainwater was clean.
Now there are many homes around the lake. People often use chemicals(化学品) in their gardens. They use other chemicals inside their houses for cleaning or killing insects(昆虫). There are also many businesses. Businesses use chemicals in their machines or shops. Other chemicals fall onto the ground from cars or trucks. When it rains, the rainwater picks up all the chemicals from homes and businesses and then carries them into the lake. They pollute the water and kill the animals.
Boats on the lake are also a problem. Lake Ponkapog is a popular place for motorboats. But oil and gas from boats often get into the lake. So more bad chemicals go into the water this way.
People in Hartwell are worried. They love their lake and want to save it. Will it be possible? A clean lake must have clean rainwater going into it. Clean rainwater is possible only if people are more careful about chemicals at home and at work. They must also be more careful about gas and oil and other chemicals on the ground. And they mustn’t use motorboats any more on the lake. All these may change people’s lives. Only then can Lake Ponkapog be a beautiful, clean lake again.
( ) 11. In the past, ______ made the water in Lake Ponkapog clean.
A. forests B. rain C. birds D. fish
( ) 12. ______ carry (carries) chemicals from homes and businesses into the lake.
A. The cars and trucks
B. The boats
C. Some people D. The rainwater
( ) 13. Cleaner rainwater will mean _____.
A. more boats on the lake
B. more dirty things in the lake
C. a cleaner lake D. a dirtier lake
( ) 14. To save Lake Ponkapog, people need to______.
A. be more careful about chemicals
B. use less water
C. grow fewer plants in the gardens
D. use more motorboats on the lake
( ) 15. The passage is about _____.
A. boats on Lake Ponkapog
