Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.
Everyone knows about pollution in the environment. Water, air, and land are
all polluted. This means that pollution is everywhere .Now, scientists are looking inside our bodies to find out about internal pollution.
In 2003, the Environmental Working Group studied nine people to measure the chemicals in there bodies. These nine people had an average of 53 cancer-causing chemicals in their bodies .They also had average of 62 chemicals that can harm babies in pregnant women .Even though a lot of chemicals were found in human bodies , the chemicals were found in small amounts .The amounts were small enough that they were probably not hurting the people . However, scientists are worried because most of these chemicals were created by humans. Most of these chemicals did not exist 75b years ago. This proves that we have not only polluted the world – we have polluted our own babies!
How dose this pollution get into our bodies? We come into contact with many
chemicals everyday .for example, everyone use soap, skin lotion, and shampoo. However, few people know that these products contain harmful chemicals, some of which may cause memory loss. Chemicals known as DEA(diethanolamine) and TEA(triethanolamine) may seep into the skin and stop us from absorbing a helpful nutrient called ―choline‖. Choline is a nutrient that plays a crucial role in the memory cell making progress in the developing brain. Some people worry that every time we wash our hair, we are decreasing our memories.

toothpastes. However, studies show that fluoride dose not really protect our teeth. In fact, fluoride has been connected with bone cancer and other diseases. While we are trying to save our smiles, we could be damaging our health.
Women are probably exposed to more chemicals then men because they use more
beauty products. Recently, harmful chemicals are called ―phthalates‖. Studies on animals have shown that phthalates can damage the liver, the kidneys, and the lungs. Cosmetic companies say the amounts of phthalates in their products are safe. But consumer protection groups disagree. They say some women try to look beautiful, the more they could be harming their health.
In a futuristic story by Ray Bradbury, a man found a pristine stream on a new
planet. When he drank from the stream, he died! Why? His body was so polluted that pure water was a position to him! Perhaps that is only science fiction, but it reminds us to take care of our bodies. We must find ways to reduce the pollution we absorb. Summary: Like our polluted environment, our bodies are no longer pollution-free. Scientists with bone cancer
now know that there is pollution in our bodies. On (61) , we have 53 cancer-causing chemicals in our bodies. Even fluoride (62) which seep into our (63) absorbing the (64) and other diseases. Some common cosmetics contain small amounts of chemicals,
when we use these products. They prevent us from our bodies need. So, it is (65) that we find

After the Zhou Dynasty, the Han Dynasty witnessed a leap in both techniques and styles of embroidery. Embroidered objects ranged from the sun, the moon, stars, mountains dragons, and phoenixes to tigers, flowers and grasses, clouds and geometric patterns. Auspicious words were also fashionable. Both historic records and products of the time prove this.
The cultural relics found in the Mawangdui Han Tomb are the best evidence of this unprecedented development in embroidery.
In addition, embroidery unearthed from the Mogao Caves in Dunhuang , the ancient tombs in Turpan and northern Inner Mongolia ,further strengthen this observation . (84) The Chinese word for embroidery is ―xiu‖, a picture or embroidery in five colours .It implies beautiful and magnificent things.
