a Scottish regional council(政务委员会) adding fluoride(氟化物)chemical to the public water supply.
In a case which has already cost the taxpayer ￡1,000,000, the judge ruled that it was beyond the
powers of the local authority to add the chemical to the water in order to reduce tooth decay.
At her home last night Mrs Catherine McColl said, “I did what I thought was right and I would do
it again, too.”She claimed that adding fluoride to public drinking water made it into some kind of dirty
soup.“Where would it stop？”she asked.“They might come up with the idea of putting drugs into the
water to keep the unemployed quiet.”It was a horrible poison, she said, that could have caused all kinds
of diseases, including cancer.
The judge, however, concluded that there was no evidence to suggest that the inclusion of fluoride
in the water supply would have had a negative effect on public health. Although the chemical might serve
as an efficient and convenient means of achieving a beneficial effect on the dental health of consumers
generally, he said, and its use was greatly favoured by the dental profession, he could also understand
why some members of the public, Mrs McColl in particular, might be passionately opposed to the
action of the Water Authority in assuming the right to improve public wellbeing without consulting the
public in the first case. The Authority"s legal duty to provide“wholesome” water for public consumption
which was both safe and pleasant to drink, did not, he said, extend to their right to safeguard public
health by chemical means.
1. Mrs McColl felt so strongly about the fluoride issue that she eventually ________.
A. took the local council to court
B. had a physical fight with the judge
C. urged the authority to apologize
D. spent much money removing the chemical
2. According to what the judge said in the passage, adding fluoride to the water________.
A. was not proved to be harmful
B. was the duty of the local authority
C. was strongly opposed by dentists
D. was surely beneficial to the public
3. The word“wholesome”in the last paragraph can be best replaced by the word“________”.
A. clear
B. poisonless
C. healthy
D. recycled
4. From the passage we learn that people like Mrs McColl are more concerned about________.
A. the improvement of their personal health
B. the problem of unemployment in their community
C. the chemicals to be used for the improvement of water quality
D. their right to be informed of the authorities" decisions

counter knows his 1 by name and what they normally want to buy. He treats children and adults with
equal 2 . He reads science fiction behind the counter when business is 3 .
One day, three people rushed in and grabbed food off the shelves as fast as they could, 4 not
intending to pay for it. He hit the "panic button" , then went over the counter and 5 the front door.
It was obvious that they were homeless, and equally obvious that they weren"t going 6 with their
illgotten gains. They 7 the food and simply crowded together in panic-knowing the police were 8
the way.
Imagine what they must have felt like when they were told they didn"t have to steal if they were that 9 . "We have food in the back, expired (到期)but still 10 to eat. If you need food, you 11 have
some."
They were told to 12 what they had dropped and put it back, and then asked to straighten out the
mess. They were doing just that 13 the police arrived. The officers were told the situation was under
control and the police were no longer 14 .
This wasn"t what they had 15 . They were being treated as human beings who could right the wrong
they"d done. Shocked, they quickly followed orders to take turns and use the restroom to clean up.
Soon three 16 people walked out with all the 17 their arms could hold. They were 18 that,
if they needed to come back again, they were to ask and not just grab.
And then the young man went back to read until the next customer came in. He would be the 19
person in the world to claim he was a hero. But he gave three people something they were in desperate
need of-a 20 amount of selfrespect and a little bit of hope.
