A UN report said that around 60 million people across the world are drinking polluted water. Some 4,500 children die every day because of polluted water.
A report showed that environmental problems kill 3 million children under five years old each year, making them one of the key contributors (构成) in more than 10 million child deaths each year.
Dangerous factors (因素) include indoor and outdoor air pollution, water pollution.
Another study showed that parents and scientists from seven countries including the United States and India think pollution is the biggest threat (威胁) to children’s living environment.

You may know the English letters A, B and C. But do you know there are people called ABCs? Do you know there is such a thing as “a banana person”? How strange! ABC means American-born Chinese. An ABC is a Chinese, but was born in the United States. Sometimes, people call an ABC a “banana person”. A banana is yellow outside. So, when a person is a “banana”, he or she is white inside—thinking like a Westerner and yellow outside—looking like a Chinese.
Usually, ABCs know little about China or the Chinese language. Some of them don’t speak Chinese. But if ABCs cannot speak Chinese, can we still call them Chinese people? Yes, of course. They are overseas（海外的）Chinese. These people may be citizens（公民）of another country like the US, Canada or Singapore. But they have Chinese blood. Their parents, grandparents or even great-grandparents were from China. They all have black eyes and black hair.
But they are not Chinese citizens. They are people of the People’s Republic of China. For example, we all know the famous scientist C. N. Yang（杨振宁）. He got the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1957. Chinese people love him. But he is an American citizen.“ABCs” in this passage means_____________.
| A．three English letters | B．a kind of banana |
| C．Chinese born in America | D．Americans born in China |
Chinese in Western countries are called “banana persons” because_____.
| A．their bodies are white inside but yellow outside |
| B．they think like Westerners but look like Chinese |
| C．they were born in China but go to study in America |
| D．they like to eat bananas |
The underlined word “blood” may probably mean ________.
| A．洪水 | B．祖先 | C．身份 | D．血统 |
Which of the sentences is WRONG about ABCs?
| A．They are Chinese citizens. |
| B．They are overseas Chinese. |
| C．They may speak little Chinese. |
