16The following is a letter to the editor of a local newspaper.
As a local merchant, I wish to support the development of a ski resort in the state park north of our township. Along with many other merchants who favor the proposal by Ski the Slopes, Incorporated, I would, of course, experience a growth in my business. But I also know how much more prosperous, not to mention lively and interesting, our community would be if tourism increased. Since the main opposition comes from a few environmentalists who do not even live in this community, I see no reason to give in to their views. The First National Bank has finally researched the project and agreed to fund it. As a result, I see no reason to delay development of the resort.
Environmentalists are people who advocate the preservation of the natural environment.
17The Trash-Site Safety Council has recently conducted a statewide study of possible harmful effects of garbage sites on the health of people living near the sites. A total of five sites and 300 people were examined. The study revealed, on average, only a small statistical correlation between the proximity of homes to garbage sites and the incidence of unexplained rashes among people living in these homes. Furthermore, although it is true that people living near the largest trash sites had a slightly higher incidence of the rashes, there was otherwise no correlation between the size of the garbage sites and peoples health. Therefore, the council is pleased to announce that the current system of garbage sites does not pose a significant health hazard. We see no need to restrict the size of such sites in our state or to place any restrictions on the number of homes built near the sites.
18The nation of Claria covers a vast physical area. But despite wide geographic differences, many citizens are experiencing rising costs of electricity. A recent study of household electric costs in Claria found that families who cooled their houses with fans alone spent more on electricity than did families using air conditioners alone for cooling. However, those households that reported using both fans and air conditioners spent less on electricity than those households that used either fans or air conditioners alone. Thus, the citizens of Claria should follow the studys recommendation and use both air conditioners and fans in order to save money on electricity.
19As people grow older, an enzyme known as PEP increasingly breaks down the neuropeptide chemicals involved in learning and memory. But now, researchers have found compounds that prevent PEP from breaking neuropeptides apart. In tests, these compounds almost completely restored lost memory in rats. The use of these compounds should be extended to students who have poor memory and difficulty in concentrating ― and therefore serious problems in school performance. Science finally has a solution for problems neither parents nor teachers could solve.
20In a study of reading habits of Leeville citizens conducted by the University of Leeville, most respondents said they preferred literary classics as reading material. However, a follow-up study conducted by the same researchers found that the type of book most frequently checked out of each of the public libraries in Leeville was the mystery novel. Therefore, it can be concluded that the respondents in the first study had misrepresented their reading habits.
16作为一个本地商人，我支持在我们城市北部的州立公园建造一个滑雪场。和其他很多支持Ski the Slopes, Incorporated的商人一样，我的生意显然也将会增长。但是我还知道如果旅游业增长了，我们社区将会多么繁荣，还不用说它带来的生机和乐趣。由于主要的反对意见来自一些甚至并不住在本社区的环境主义者，我认为没有理由向他们的观点屈服。First National Bank最终研究了这个方案并同意资助它。因此，我认为没有理由推迟滑雪场的建造。 环境主义者是倡导保护自然环境的人。
17垃圾场安全委员会最近对于垃圾场对住在附近的居民健康的可能危害进行了一次调查。调查一共检测了5个垃圾场和300位居民。研究发现平均而言，在垃圾场附近居住和这些居民中未查明原因的皮炎之间只有很小的相关性。而且，尽管住在最大的垃圾场附近的居民患皮炎的比例确实要高一些，但是除此之外，垃圾场的规模和人们的健康之间是没有关联的。因此，委员会很高兴地宣布现有的垃圾场系统不会对健康产生严重的健康危害。我们认为没有必要限制本州这类垃圾场的规模，或对于在垃圾场周围建造的住宅的数量加以任何限制。
18 Claria这个国家覆盖了广泛的地理区域。但尽管存在很大地理差异，很多居民都遇到了电费上涨的经历。最近一项对于Claria家庭用电花费的研究发现，那些单独使用风扇来降温的家庭电费花费比那些单独使用空调降温的家庭要多。然而，那些报告说同时使用风扇和空调的家庭电费花费比单独使用风扇或空调的家庭少。因此，Claria的居民应该遵从这个研究的建议，同时使用空调和风扇来节省电费花费。
19随着人们的衰老，一种已知叫做PEP的酶不断地分解与学习和记忆有关的神经肽化学物质。但现在研究人员已经发现了一些阻止PEP分解神经肽的化合物。在试验中，这些化合物几乎完全恢复了老鼠失去的记忆。这些化合物的使用可以扩展到那些因记忆力较差和注意力不能集中而在学习中存在严重问题的学生。科学最终能够解决家长和教师都无法解决的问题。
20在一次由Leeville大学所举行的关于Leeville居民阅读习惯的调查中，多数被访者说他们倾向于阅读古典文学。然而，由相同的研究人员随后进行的调查发现Leeville所有公共图书馆中最经常被借阅的书是神秘小说。因此，我们可以得出结论，第一次调查的被访者错误地表达了他们的阅读习惯 。
