There is no question that the old style. of air pollution could kill people. In one week f

ollowing the infamous "peasouper" fog in December 1952, 4,700 people died in London. Most of these people were elderly and already had heart or lung diseases. A series of these killer fogs eventually led to the British Passing the Clean Air Act which restricted the burning of coal.

Fortunately the effect of smog on the lungs is not so dramatic. Scientists have now conducted a number of laboratory experiments in which volunteers are exposed to ozone inside a steel chamber for a few hours. Even at quite low concentrations there is a reversible fall in lung function, an increase in the irritability of the lungs and evidence of airway inflammation (发炎) . Although irritable and inflamed lungs are particularly seen in people with asthma (哮喘) and other lung diseases, these effects of ozone also occur in healthy subjects. Similar changes are also seen after exposure to nitrogen dioxide, although there is some disagreement about the concentration at which they occur.

Other studies have found that people living in areas with high levels of pollution have more symptoms and worse lung function than those living in areas with clean air. Groups of children attending school camps show falls in lung function even at quite low concentrations of ozone. There is also a relationship between ozone levels and hospital admissions for asthma, both in North America and Australia. It is suspected that long-term exposure to smog may result in chronic bronchitis (支气管炎) and emphysema (肺气肿), but this has yet to be proven.

Recently an association has been found between the levels of particles in the air and death rates in North American cities. The reason for this association is not understood and as vet there is no evidence this occurs in Australia. However, we do know that hazy days are associated with more asthma attacks in children.

Which of the following is NOT the result of laboratory experiments?

A.Low concentrations

B.Fall in lung function

C.Irritability of the lungs

D.Air way inflammation

阅读理解。
There is an English saying, "Laughter is the best medicine." Until recently, few people took the saying

seriously. Now however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body.

They have found that laughter really can improve people's health.

Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while

doctors checked their heart, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar

effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, makes the heart beat quicker and makes people

breathe deeper; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter

exercises the body, it must be beneficial.

Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one

experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programmes. The

group that tolerated (忍耐) the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny programme.

The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain

whichdiminishesboth stress and pain.

As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they

help to improve their patients'condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their

patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to

those caused by laughter.
