　　56、Questions56-61 are based on the following passage.

　　It was once thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and heavy automobile traffic.Today,we know that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution，the problem is literally worldwide.On several occasions over the past decade，a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the entire eastern half of the United States and led to health warnings

　　even in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic.In fact， the very climate of the entire earth may be affected by air pollution.

　　Some scientists feel that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of fossil fuels(coal and oil.is creating a“greenhouse effect”一holding in heat reflected from the earth and raising the world’s average temperature.If this view is correct and the world’s temperature is raised only a few degrees。much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities such as New Y0rk，Boston，Miami，and New Orleans will be under water.

　　Another view,less widely held，is that increasing particulate matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earth’s temperature—a result that would be equally disastrous.A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to new ice age and would make agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas.

　　At present we do not know for sure that either of these conditions will happen，though one recent government report prepared by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very likely.Perhaps，if we are very lucky,the two tendencies will offset each other and the world’s temperature will

　　stay about the same as it is now.

　　The easy way out isn t always easiest.

　　I learned that lesson when I decided to treat Doug, my husband of one month, to a special meal.

　　I glanced through my cookbook and chose a menu which included homemade bread.

　　Knowing the bread would take tine, I started on it as soon as Doug left for work.

　　As I was not experienced in cooking, I thought if a dozen was good, two dozen would be better, so I doubled everything.

　　As Doug loved oranges, I also opened a can of orange and poured it all into the bowl.

　　Soon there was a sticky dough covered with ugly yellowish marks.

　　Realizing I had been defeated, I put the dough in the rubbish bin outside so I wouldn t have to face Doug laughing at my work.

　　I went on preparing the rest if the meal, and, when Doug got home, we sat down to Cornish chicken with rice.

　　He tried to enjoy the meal but seemed disturbed.

　　Twice he got up and went out side, saying he thought he heard a noise.

　　The third time he left, I went to the window to see what he was doing.

　　Looking out, I saw Doug standing about three feet from the rubbish bin, holding the lid up with a stick and looking into the container.

　　When I came out of the house, he dropped the stick and explained that there was something alive in our rubbish bin .

　　Picking up the stick again, he held the lid up enough for me to see.

　　I felt cold.

　　But I stepped close and looked harder.

　　Without doubt it was my work.

　　The hot sun had caused the sough to dough to double in size and the fermenting yeast made the surface shake and sigh as thought it were breathing .

　　It looked like some unknown being from outer space.

　　I could see why Doug was shaken.

　　I had to admit what the living thing was and why it was there.

　　I don t know who was more embarrassed by the whole thing Doug or me.
