They say after a parent dies,the surviving children can take on some of their parent’s characteristics. I 1 becoming anything like my dad for years 2 I wanted to be me,not him;but there I sat at his memorial service several months ago,telling myself, “You’ve 3 a lot more of your dad in you than you think. ”
There is this phrase my dad 4,and I know I’m going to sound 5 to complain about it,but it used to 6 me. “I am so proud of you”’ he told us kids,whether we’d won a race or helped others. That should be a (n) 7 thing,but here’s what always 8 my mind: “You are taking credit for what isn’t really yours. You can be proud,but the 9 is mine. ”
Your parent is doing his best to give you 10,but you do not 11 it. “I’m so proud of you. ” It came out of my dad’s mouth 12 ,on those calls where I might have 13 something that happened at work or when he and Mum came to visit and we 14 the talents of our two boys. I knew the feeling of parental 15 well,especially when my boys achieved in ways that were 16 my comprehension and ability,but I looked for other ways to 17 it. “That’s an extremely good story you’ve written!” I would say about the composition. I thought that by making my praise 18,it would feel like I was claiming their achievement less as mine and more as one they could own themselves.
So just the other day when my older son sent me an e-mail about his scholarship,I searched for 19 things to say,but finally I 20 he doesn’t need my cleverness. He just wants what my dad gave me. “I'm so proud of you ,” I wrote. Just like the old man to me.

Nowadays,there is a heated debate on whether pollutants should be cleaned in the air. Cleaning up the air,while good for our lungs,could make global warming worse. And the pollutants still go up around the air,along with carbon dioxide.
These pollutants are called aerosols and they include soot as well as mixtures of nitrogen (氮) and sulfur (硫) and other stuff into the air. Natalie Mahowald,a climate researcher at Cornell University,says,so far,scientists have mostly tried to understand what those aerosols do while they’re actually in the air.
“There are so many different kinds of aerosols,” she says. “Some are warm and some are cool. But in fact,humans are giving out a lot of extra aerosols,and they tend to cool for the most part. ”
The aerosols reflect sunlight back into space,or keep us cool. But it turns out that’s not all they do. These aerosols also influence how much carbon dioxide gets drawn out of the air by plants on land and in the sea.
“They can add nutrients,for example,to the ocean or to the land ,” Mahowald says. “But also while they’re in the atmosphere they can change the climate,and thus that also can influence the amount of carbon,the land or the ocean can take up. So there are quite a few different ways that aerosols can act on each other. ”
Mahowald’s results suggest that reducing those pollutants could be an even bigger problem than realized,when you consider that aerosols help remove carbon dioxide from the air by encouraging plant growth. Hard numbers on this effect are highly uncertain at the moment,but this could turn out to be quite significant.
And studying it is not easy because the effects aren’t well understood. For example,nitrogen can be a fertilizer (肥料) , but it can stop plant growing when nitrogen comes out of the air in acid form.
Right now it seems like we’re much more likely to clean up aerosol pollution,while increasing the amount of carbon dioxide in the air. So scientists,unfortunately,may have a chance to see whether this experiment on our planet should continue or not.
( ) 5. From Paragraph 2,we know that .
A. scientists have been aware of how aerosols work
B. Natalie Mahowald is an expert in climate
C. cleaning up the air is so popular
D. pollutants are under control so far
( ) 6. What does the last sentence of the passage imply?
A. Scientists will be in a dilemma.
B. The experiment will be successful.
C. Scientists will carry out the experiment.
D. Scientists have difficulty in the experiment.
( ) 7. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?
A. Pollutants in the Air
B. The Experiment on the Planet
C. The Reason for Global Warming
D. The Influence of Aerosols
