2141.閱讀下面短文,然后用60個單詞左右概括短文的要點。
Getting rid of dirt,in the opinion of most people,is a good thing.However,there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.
In the early 16th century,people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease,as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in.A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths.By 1538,the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom.So did the king of England in 1546.Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way.Henry IV,King of France,was famously dirty.Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath,the king ordered that,to avoid the attack of disease,the nobleman should not go out.
Though the belief in the advantage of dirt was long-lived,dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century.Scientifically speaking,cleaning away dirt is good to health.Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease.Yet,it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅱ.Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea;clothes need to be whiter than white,cloths ever softer,surfaces to shine.Has the hate for dirt,however,gone too far?
Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays.Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt,which might be responsible for the spread of disease.On the contrary,Mary Ruebush,an American immunologist(免疫學家),encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system.And the latter position is gaining some reason.發布:2024/5/23 20:38:36組卷:2引用:1難度:0.52142.
發布:2024/5/23 20:38:36組卷:1引用:1難度:0.62143.The sun rises above the Arctic Ocean(北冰洋).Across the frozen sea,a white bear moves slowly.
The bear stops and sways(搖晃)his head from side to side.There is nothing to see but endless ice and red sky.Then his powerful nose senses what his eyes cannot:a beluga whale is nearby.
The bear follows the smell and spots a large hole in the ice where a small white whale is swimming.He silently walks towards the hole,then stops,standing still.The whale does not see the bear,whose white fur makes him appear invisible(看不見的)against the ice.
Finally,the whale swims close to where the bear is waiting.With terrifying speed,the bear comes to life and moves towards the whale.In a moment it is over,and the bear eats his first meal in nearly a week.
Polar bears rule the frozen sea,but their ancestors weren't always built for ice and snow.The first Arctic bears were brown bears,a species that includes grizzly bears.They came to the icy north over a hundred thousand years ago.
No one knows for sure why these bears traveled to such a cold place.Scientists think they might have wandered north looking for food.Maybe they became trapped by glaciers and couldn't leave.Whatever the reason,the bears never should have survived.
But they did.They got used to their new environment.Their bodies changed.Their behavior changed,too.Eventually,the bears developed into an entirely new species:the polar bear.You can see some of the characteristics that polar bears developed to survive.
Sadly,these characteristics may now threaten the polar bear's survival.As sea ice melts due to global warming,polar bears are frequently forced to come ashore(在岸上).They are poor hunters on land,which means they often go a long time between meals.The polar bear,king of the Arctic,is now classified as a threatened species.
Although the future of the polar bear is unknown,the tale of two bears continues.As temperatures rise,grizzly bears have been spotted moving north into polar bear territory(領地).These long-lost cousins,once forced apart by nature,are coming back together again.
