Car Pollution(汽車(chē)污染)
Car PollutionEach year there is an increasing number of cars on the roads as millions of new cars are produced. One out of six Americans works at making cars, driving trucks, building roads or filling up gas. Americans couldn't live without cars!
Most Americans would find it hard to imagine life without a car. However, some have realized the serious problem of air pollution caused by cars. The polluted air becomes poisonous and dangerous to health.
One way to get rid of the polluted air is to make a car without pollution. But to build a clean car is easier said than done. Progress in this field is slow.
Another way is to replace car engines with something else. Inventors are now working on steam cars as well as electric cars. Many makers believe that it will take years to develop a practical model for us.
To prevent the world from being polluted by cars, we have to make some changes in our lives. Americans, for example, have to cut down on the number of their total cars.They are encouraged to use bicycles, which are thought to help keep the air clean.
But this change does not come easily. A large number of workers may find themselves without jobs if a car factory cioses down. Thus the problem of air pollution would become less important than that of unemployment. Although cars have led us to a better life, they have also brought us new problems.
汽車(chē)污染
上路的汽車(chē)數(shù)量逐年增長(zhǎng),同時(shí),每年都會(huì)生產(chǎn)出幾百萬(wàn)輛新車(chē)。在美國(guó),每六個(gè)人中就有一個(gè)從事與汽車(chē)相關(guān)的工作:造車(chē)、開(kāi)車(chē)、修路、加油等等。 離開(kāi)汽車(chē),美國(guó)人無(wú)法生活!
大部分美國(guó)人簡(jiǎn)直無(wú)法想象沒(méi)有車(chē)的生活會(huì)是什么樣子。但是一些人也已經(jīng)意識(shí)到汽車(chē)造成的空氣污染已成為嚴(yán)重的問(wèn)題。被污染的空氣具有毒性,并且危害健康。
解決空氣污染的方法之一就是制造無(wú)污染汽車(chē)。但是生產(chǎn)清潔汽車(chē)說(shuō)來(lái)容易做來(lái)難。 目前,這一領(lǐng)域的進(jìn)展十分緩慢。
另一個(gè)方法就是使用其他東西替代汽車(chē)發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)。發(fā)明家正在研制蒸汽汽車(chē)和電車(chē)。但是許多廠家認(rèn)為我們可以使用的實(shí)用型汽車(chē)的誕生可能還需要幾年時(shí)間。
要想阻止全球化的汽車(chē)污染,我們需要對(duì)自己的生活方式做出適當(dāng)?shù)母淖。例如,在美?guó),需要縮減汽車(chē)總量。鼓勵(lì)人們使用有助空氣清潔的自行車(chē)。
但這種改變不能一蹴而就。一旦汽車(chē)工廠關(guān)閉,就會(huì)有大量工人失去工作。與失業(yè)相比,空氣污染似乎就不再那么重要了。盡管汽車(chē)為我們帶來(lái)了更加舒適的生活,同時(shí),它也帶來(lái)了新的問(wèn)題。
