根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Industrial pollution is not only a problem for the countries of Europe and North America but also an extremely serious problem in some developing countries.小题1:They want to introduce industries, and so they put few controls on the industries which cause pollution. Cubatao, an industrial town of 85 000 people in Brazil, is an example of the connection between industrial development and pollution. In 1954, Cubatao had no industry.小题2: The people of the town are suffering from the poisonous matter in their environment．小题3:Birth shortcomings are extremely common. Among children and adults, lung problems are sometimes twelve times more common in Cubatao than in other places. 小题4:However, these laws are not strict enough. It is cheaper for companies to take no notice of the laws and pay the fines(罚款) than to buy the expensive equipment that will reduce the pollution. It is clear, therefore, that economic growth is more important to the government than to the health of the workers. However, the responsibility does not completely lie with the Brazilian government. 小题5:A number of the factories in the town are owned by large companies from France, Italy, and the U. S. They are doing things in Brazil that they would not be able to do at home. If they caused the same amount of pollution at home, they would be severely punished or even put out of business.
Ｆ．Today it has more than twenty large factories, which produce many pollutants(污染物)． Ｇ．The example of Cubatao shows that international companies are not acting in a responsible way either. |
