33、nd that higher prams are better, because most particle pollution is concentrated in the first metre above road level. On average, children in prams breathe at a height of about 0.85 metres,meaning they are exposed to about 60 percent more pollution than adults.On top of this, particle pollution is m
34、ore dangerous to babies than adults, says Jonathan Griggs at Queen Mary University of London, who was not involved in the study. Babies breathe faster than adults and they are easily hurt for the effects of pollution because the protective mechanisms in their lungs are not yet fully developed, he sa
35、ys.When choosing the best pram for defending against pollution, the weather is also a factor. Hot summer air concentrates pollution close to the ground, making seat height particularly important. But when the air is cold, the heat from car exhausts(排气管)causes dangerous particles higher in the air, a
36、fter which they fall. In these cases, prams with some kind of covering can help protect children from pollution falling down on them from above.“There are very few existing studies to draw conclusive evidence on which pram design is best, ” says Prashant Kumar, who led the research. So far he is onl
37、y able to identify broad things to look for in a pram. In the future, it may be possible to purchase addon air filter(过滤)systems for prams. One currently in development is called Brizi,which consists of a flat headrest with wings on either side of the babys head. Air is sucked in on one side,cleaned
38、, and blown out the other, creating a bubble of slightly higher air pressure, which 7keeps out particles.“Designing better prams is only a temporary solution to dealing with pollution itself, ” says Griggs. “Its certainly cautious not to stick your child next to an exhaust pipe, and most importantly
39、 reduce emissions on roads.”( )58. One of the research findings is that high prams with coverings are .A. more convenient to push B. helpful to block sunshineC. good for protecting babies heads D. effective to protect babies from pollution( )59. What can parents do to protect babies?A. Monitor their
40、 breathing rate. B. Promote their lung development.C. Offer comfortable seats in hot days. D. Keep babies away from exhausts.( )60. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The benefit of high prams with coverings.B. The development of air filter system for prams.C. The necessity of designing the
41、best prams.D. The urgency of reducing particle pollution.COne sunny afternoon in the autumn of the year 1861 a soldier lay in clump of laurel(月桂树) by the side of a road in western Virginia. He lay at full length upon his stomach, his head upon the left forearm. His extended right hand loosely graspe
42、d his gun. But for the slight rhythmic movement of his back, he might have been thought to be dead. He was asleep at his post of duty. But if found he would be dead shortly afterward, death being the just and legal penalty of his crime.The sleeping soldier was a young Virginian named Carter Druse. H
43、e was the son of wealthy parents, an only child. His home was but a few miles from where he now lay. One morning he had risen from the breakfast table and said, quietly but gravely: “Father, the Union army has arrived at Grafton. I am going to join it.”The father lifted his head, looked at the son a
44、 moment in silence, and replied, “Go, Carter, and whatever may occur, do what you consider to be your duty. Virginia, which you betray, must get on without you. Should we both live to the end of the war, we will speak further of the matter. Your mother, as the physician has informed you, is in a mos
45、t critical condition; at the best she cannot be with us longer than a few weeks, but that time is precious. It would be better not to disturb her.”So Carter Druse, bowed to his father and left the home of his childhood. By conscience and courage, he was soon well received by his fellows and his offi
46、cers; and it was to these qualities and to some knowledge of the country that he owed his selection for his present duty at the extreme post. Nevertheless, he fell asleep, exhausted. What good or bad angel came in a dream to awake him from his state of crime, who shall say? He quietly raised 8his fo
47、rehead from his arm and looked between the laurels.His first feeling was a keen artistic delight. On the cliff was a statue of impressive dignity. The figure of the man sat on the horse, straight and soldierly. The face of the rider, turned slightly away; he was looking downward to the bottom of the
48、 valley.Broad awake and keenly alive now, Druse cautiously pushed the gun forward through the bushes and covered a vital spot of the horsemans breast. A touch upon the trigger(扳机)and all would have been well with Druse. At that instant the horseman turned and looked in his directionseemed to look in
49、to his very face, into his eyes, into his brave heart.Druse grew pale; he shook in every limb(四肢),turned faint. His hand fell away from his weapon, his head slowly dropped until his face rested on the leaves in which he lay.The duty of the soldier was plainthe man must be shot dead. But nothere is a hope; he may have discovered nothingperhaps he is but admiring the beauty of the landscape. Druse turned his head and looked through the deeps of air downward. He saw s
