the house!There is a mouse trap in the house!”The hen clucked(咯咯地叫)and scratched,raised her head and said,“Mr.Mouse,I can tell this is a great concern to you,but it is of no consequence to me.I cannot be bothered by it.”Then the mouse turned to the pig.The pig sympathized,but said,“I am so very sorry,Mr.Mouse,but there is nothing I can do about it but pray.Be assured you are in my prayers.”Then the mouse turned to the cow and repeated the same words.The cow said,“Moo,Mr.Mouse.Im sorry for you,but its no skin off my nose.”So,the mouse returned to the house,head down and sadly faced the farmers mousetrap alone.That very night a sound was heard throughout the housethe sound of a mousetrap catching its prey(猎物).The farmers wife rushed to see what was caught.In the darkness,she did not see it.It was a poisonous snake whose tail was caught in the trap.The snake bit the farmers wife.The farmer rushed her to the hospital.When she returned home,she still had a fever.Everyone knows fresh

memory,and even anxiety.This is suggested by the results of new research on mice.While other studies have shown the harmful effects of polluted air on the lungs and heart,this is the first to show the negative effect on the brain.The team of Laura Fonken,Randy Nelson,from the Ohio State University,U.S.A.,has spread to the brain a previous line of research which found that fine particulate(微粒) matter floating in the air mainly because of air pollution caused by humans,causes swelling in much of the body,and may be related to high blood pressure problems,and some other diseases.In the research Fonken and his colleagues exposed mice to polluted air for six hours each day,five days a week,over a period of 10 months,almost half the average life length of mice.Polluted air contains fine particles created by cars,factories and natural dust.Fine particles of this kind are tiny,about 2.5 micrometers in diameter,or about one-thirtieth the width of a human hair.These particles can go deep into lungs and other organs.The concentration of this particulate material to which they exposed mice is equal to the concentration at which people can be exposed in some polluted urban areas.After a period of 10 months,the researchers got the animals to have a series of behavioral tests.Both the behavior of mice and the results of neurological(神经的) tests done to them show that those within the polluted air had more problems in learning and memory,and higher levels of anxiety.The results suggest that long-time exposure to polluted air can have measurable negative effects on the human brain and can cause a variety of mental health problems.This could have important consequences for those living and working in polluted urban areas.6.The results of new research on mice first suggest that polluted air mainly does harm to .A.normal organsB.lungs and heartC.mental healthD.blood
