B

Each year there is an increasing number of cars on roads and street are millions of new cars are produced. One out of every six Americans works at putting together the parts of cars, driving trucks, building roads of filling cars with gas. Americans won’t live without cars!
Most Americans find it hard to think what life would be without a car. However some have realized the serious problem of air pollution by cars. The polluted air is poisonous(有毒的) and dangerous to health.
One way to get rid of(排除)the polluted air is to build a new kind of car. That’s what several of the large car factories are trying to do. But to build a clean car is easier said than done. Progress in this field has been slow.
Another way is to take the place of the car engine(发动机) by something else. Engineers are now working on some new cars. Many makers believe that it will take years to develop a practical model that pleases man.
To prevent the world from being polluted by cars, we’ll have to make some change in the way many of us live. Americans, for example, have to cut down on the number of their cars. They are encouraged to travel and go to work by bike. Riding a bike is 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 closed down. And the problem of air pollution would become less important than that of unemployment(失业).
Although cars have brought us a better life, they have also brought us new problems.

Tourism

People travel for a lot of reason. Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines. Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their picture taken in front of famous places. But most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach toile on.
Northern European are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it. Residents of cities like London, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much of the rest the year in the rain. This is the reason the Mediterranean has always attracted them. Every summer, more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean resort and beaches for their vacation. They all come for the same reason sun!
The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean countries. Italy’s 30, 000 hotels are booked solid every summer. And 13 million people camp out on French beaches, parks and roadsides. Spain’s long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else. 37 million tourists visit yearly, or one tourist for every person living in Spain.
But there are signs that the area is getting more tourism than it can handle. The Mediterranean is already one the most polluted seas on earth. And with increased tourism, it’s getting worse. The French can’t figure out what to do with all the garbage left by campers around St. Tropez. And in many places, swimming is dangerous because of pollution.
None of this, however, is spoiling anyone’s fun. The Mediterranean gets more popular every year with tourists. Obviously, they don’t go there for clean water and solitude. They tolerate traffic jams and seem to like crowded beaches. They don’t even mind the pollution. No matter how dirty the water is, the coastline still looks beautiful. And as long as the sun shines, it’s still better than sitting in the cold rain in Berlin, London, or Oslo.
According to the passage, which of the following factors might spoil the tourists’ fun at Mediterranean resorts and beaches

A:Polluted water B:Crowded buses C:Traffic jams D:Rainy weather
