泉州市2024高考英语文章突破一轮训练（9）及答案
(***)
Some years ago industries had more freedom than they have now，and they did not need to be as careful as they must today. They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed. They did not have to pay much attention to the health and safety of the people who worked for them. Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them；often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.
Of course sometimes there were real disasters(灾难) which attracted the attention of governments and which showed the need for changes.Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore.At such times, there were inquiries into the causes of the disasters or the problems. New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries；however, the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or who became seriously ill.
Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers. In the U. S．， for example, there is a department which tests new airplanes and gives warnings about possible problems. It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow. Another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell.A third department looks at the places where people work，and then reports any company that is breaking the laws which protect the health and safety of workers. Of course，new government departments and new laws cannot prevent every accident or illness，but they are having some good results. Our work places are safer and cleaner than before. The planes and cars which we use for travel are better. Producers are thinking more about the safety and health of the people who buy and use their products.

A．governments and companies had different opinions about the safety of products
B．governments paid little attention to the safety of products
C．government officials often did not listen to scientists

THE EARTH CENTRE
You might have heard about the centre of the earth but have you heard of the Earth Centre? It is a new South Yorkshire attraction—a theme park with a difference.
Why does the Earth Centre attract visitors from all over the world? Because it is the world’s first sustainable(可持续的)development park and it aims to promote the idea of sustainable development to all ages. Here you will get to see the world in a way you have never seen it before.
________________________________________________________________________
There are many impressive attractions. Here are just a few：
·“Nature works” which explore pond life found in the various habitats of the Earth Centre. You don’t just look—if you want you can catch and handle these creatures too.
·The Water Cycle Simulator which allows you to speed around the planet.
·The Living Machine—a full-scale sewage(污水) treatment system for the Earth Centre that uses plants and micro-organisms to create water safe enough to drink.
·Daredevil outdoor activities—if you’re feeling adventurous, try the climbing wall.
In addition, there are 400 acres of the Country Park to explore with woods, lakes and a wealth of wildlife.
☆ Food and drink
If you get hungry—no problem! The Centre has its own café serving a range of delicious snacks and meals—all organic of course.
☆ Shop
If you feel like spending some money, you can call at the Earth Shop where you can buy “sustainability products” such as organic cotton T-shirts.
☆ How to get there
By Road—Leave the AIM at Junction 36 and follow the brown Earth Centre signs along the A630, then the A6023 towards Mexborough. The Earth Centre is next right after Conisbrough Railway Station.
By Rail—Conisbrough station is next to the entrance to the Earth Centre and is on the Doncaster to Sheffield line.
By Boat—The Earth Centre has a wharf(码头) on the River Don.

Open every day (except Christmas Day) 10：00 am—5：00 pm.
