That’s about 13 times more salt than is used by the entire food processing industry. Salt lowers the freezing temperature of water and thus melts snow and ice. But its public safety benefits do e with some ecological drawbacks(弊端 ). The biggest concern with road salt is how it affects water quality. The material doesn’t just disappear when the snow and ice melts: It is washed away into lakes and streams or gets into groundwater supplies. Researchers recently found that, in the urban Twin Cities area, 70 percent of the salt applied to roads stays within the region’s watershed( 水源區(qū) ). Once it gets there, the pollution is difficult and expensive to move. Salty groundwater can make for salty drinking wells. That’s a health issue for people on restrictedsodium diets and a taste problem for everyone else. When salt gets into lakes and streams, it can also harm plants and animals there. Road salt can affect the environment in other ways, too. It can erode(腐蝕 ) soil and plants as far as 650 feet away. Roadsides can also turn into a sort of artificial salt lick(鹽堿地 ) that would be attractive to animals. As a result, they run a higher risk of being road kill. Birds are mon victims, as well. So if salt is so problematic, why are we still using it? Because it’s cheap. Alternative chemicals can be much more expensive, and they often require new spreading equipment. As researchers continue to look for substitutes, there are plenty of ways that road crews can cut back on their salt usage. Prewetting the salt, for example, allows for more controlled application and better sticking power. Weather monitoring is key, too: applying salt just before a storm hits, so that the snow can’t attach to the ground, is usually more efficient than waiting until after the snow has fallen. 12. How does road salt melt snow and ice? A. By changing the weather. B. By raising their temperatures. C. By raising the temperature of roads. D. By changing the freezing point of water. 13. The author is most worried about the influence of road salt on _____. A. traffic safety B. water quality C. soil conditions D. plants and animals 14. It’s mentioned in the text that birds _____. A. often die because of eroded soil B. often die because of polluted water C. are often killed by vehicles on roads D. are often killed by other animals in the fields 15. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. How to use road salt more efficiently. B. Researchers are looking for substitutes. C. Road crews are monitoring the weather. D. The advantages of alternative chemicals. 第二節(jié) (共 5小題;每小題 2分,滿分 10分) 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng) ,并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。t play the state lottery any more.
