人类从开始做饭洗衣，就开始了对环境的污染。幸亏环境有自净力，人类才安全生息。人口急速增加，工业迅猛发展，环境不堪重负。土地、空气、水的污染已影响到人类的健康和幸福，沉重代价唤起了人们的醒悟：地球是我们共有的家园，需要我们精心呵护。

　　 The earth is our home. We must take care of it. This means keeping the land air and water clean.

　　  Pollution is a "dirty" word. To pollute means to make things unfit or unclean to us. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it smell it taste it and drink it. Pollution is beginning to threaten our health our happiness and our life.

　　  Man has been polluting the earth from the time he first made fire washed his clothes in the river and threw his waste on the ground. When land was used up or water became dirty man moved on to another place. At first the problem was not so serious because there was plenty of clean air land and water. There weren't so many people then and their wants were fewer. All the dirty things could be absorbed by nature and soon covered over. But this is no longer true. The increase of population and the development of industry have changed that. Man is slowly poisoning his surroundings.

　　 Through the use of poison man has polluted the land killing the animals. By putting dirty water and chemicals into river and lakes we have polluted our drinking water killing the fish.

Our increasing population is part of the problem. More people more waste. Where is this all to end? Are we turning the world into a big rubbish dump or is there any hope that we can get rid of the pollution? Fortunately millions of people have been warned of the danger of pollution. Large numbers of people are now working hard to bring pollution under control.

All the following statements are true except "_______" according to the passage.

  A. We live on the earth so we should pay more attention to it.

  B. To pollute means to make air water and soil unfit for use.

  C. All the waste produced by modern industry can be absorbed and made harmless.

  D. Man is now fighting a battle against different kinds of pollution.
