They often accept the opinion or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without 37 ; they

17、 try to find a solution by trial and error. However, when all of these methods 38 , the person with a problem has to start analysing.

One in eight people dont sleep well and are easily woken. 7.6 percent sleep less than 3 hours each night

41、. Some even cannot fall asleep for several days in a row.As a basic bodily and mental need, sleep is essential for our survival, it helps us to fight diseases, strengthen our memory, perform better in work and school and improve our quality of life.

48、text?ADoubtful BDisapproving CConcerned DEnthusiasticDHumankind has tried to improve its standard of living since the very beginning of civilization. Back then, as well as today, providing food and security was the basic task for a person. However, nowadays the range of required goods has expanded s

49、ignificantly. People feel the need for not only some primary things, such as a piece of bread and a roof over their heads, but also for various facilities and luxuries. Providing humanity with these things is connected to the use of natural resources, which requires energy. In turn, the common sourc

50、es of energy we use today cause pollution, so economic growth is almost unavoidably associated with environmental damage.Economic growth is the increase in numbers of goods and services produced over time by an economy, and it is calculated in terms of real Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Before growt

51、h is calculated, inflation (通货膨胀)is adjusted in order to take into account its misleading effect on the price of goods and services. Economic growth can also be explained as the increase in expected output, which results from an increase in actual output, or total demand.There are certain aspects of

52、 economic growth which affect the environment. The first of these is the fact that in order to produce more goods and products, at a faster rate, the construction of large industrial plants is required. These plants produce a lot of waste, leading to the pollution of water and the atmosphere, which

53、may cause negative long term health effects to nearby populations of animals, or people. They also lead to global warming.Industrial manufacturing leads to the constantly increasing energy consumption. The traditional energy sources, which are commonly used nowadays, are considered to be the greates

54、t polluters to the environment. There also exist so-called eco-friendly sources of energy. They are sometimes preferred but replacing the traditional sources with them also requires time, during which people have to make some sacrifices to support these undertakings.In order to produce economically

55、practical energy, a sometimes significant transformation of the natural site is often inevitable. This is expensive and, has harmful effects on the environment. Application of wind energy would block airflows natural speed which is the reason for their decrease in strength, after crossing the windmi

56、ll. Consequently, the pressure balance that is brought about by this current will be affected, and it is important to remember that the environment and weather conditions are directly affected by atmospheric pressure.For these reasons, bringing about economic growth without any resulting environment

57、al damage, whatsoever, is impossible.68. What does the passage mainly talk about?A.Pollution caused by plant construction.B.Effects of windmills on the environment.C.Economic growth and human civilization.D.Economic growth and environmental damage.69. What does the underlined word “They” in the thir

58、d paragraph refer to?A. Goods and products B. The industrial plantsC. Water and atmosphere D. Negative health effects70.
