8、fireplaces to heat their homes. Scientists have become worried about the smoke that they give off. Harmful chemicals are in the smoke. The smoke is causing air pollution. The pieces of pollution, called soot, are floating in the air. They are too tiny to see. Scientists must use a microscope to see

9、them.Small amounts of soot are safe, but large amounts can be dangerous. The government wants to limit this kind of pollution. It may stop people from using their fireplaces.The air is tested every day. When soot levels are high, more than 65 micrograms of soot per cubic meter, factories must stop m

10、aking smoke. The government thinks that limit should be much lower.Factories produce the most smoke and soot. But the government thinks that all types of burning should be limited.

15、rms. However, the surface of the planet seems to show that water flowed across it some time in the past, and it is believed that there is enough ice at the poles to cover the planet with water if it melts. Although there is no life on the Mars now, some scientists think that there may have been some

16、 form of life long time ago. At that time, the planet had active volcanoes; the atmosphere was thicker and warmer; and there was water. In fact, in some ways the Mars may have been similar to the Earth, where life exists.Some people believe that the Mars could support life in the future if the right

17、 conditions were produced. The first step would be to warm the planet using certain gases which trap the Suns heat in the planets atmosphere. With warmth, water and carbon dioxide (二氧化碳 ), simple plants could begin to grow. These plants could slowly make the Mars more suitable for living. It is esti

18、mated that the whole process might take between 100,000 and 200,000 years. In the meantime, people could begin to live on the planet in special closed environments. They would provide a lot of useful information about conditions on the Mars and the problems connected with living there.25 Some scient
