Question 2. We can learn from the passage that _____. ----- Passage 1 ----- (Para. 1)The air is polluted. The earth is poisoned. Water is unsafe to drink and garbage is burying the civilization that produced it. (Para. 2)Our environment is being polluted faster than nature and man’s efforts can prevent it. Time is bringing us more people, and more people will bring us more industry. More people and more industry will bring us more motorcars, larger cities, and the growing use of man-made materials.

There is a constant flow of people from the country into cities, eager for the benefits of modern society. But as our technological achievements have grown in the last twenty years, so at that time pollution has become a serious problem. (Para. 4)Isn’t it time we stopped asking ourselves where we are going and why? It reminds one of the stories about the airline pilot who told his passengers over the loud speakers, “I’ve some good news and some bad news. The good news is that we’re making rapid progress at 530 miles per hour. The bad news is that we’re lost and don’t know where we’re going.” The sad fact is that this becomes a true story when applied to our modern society. ----- Question 2.
