Ⅴ.听短文填空。短文读两遍

　　Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the most serious problems is pollution.

Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. In the past, when the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But this is no longer possible now.

Water pollution kills fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us talk loudly and become angry easily. Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad for all living things on the earth. It is sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution.
