Effects from the explosion will go on for a long time. Over two million people still live in the polluted areas. Only 56 people died from the explosion but many other problems have been caused because of it. Some types of cancer are more than 200 times above world average. Many children have cancer now and birth defects have doubled since the accident. Some people in the United States are worried about the children living there. One group has been trying to raise money. They are called the Chernobyl Children's Project. They want to bring children from the Ukraine to the U.S. each summer. A spokesperson for the group says that radiation is the highest in the summertime, so it is a good time to get the children out of the country. They want to help the children get away for a little while. The Project wants them to be safe from radiation. It costs $1,500 to bring each child to the United States for six weeks. The group raised enough money to bring 28 children to the United States. The children were able to do lots of fun things. They enjoyed clean air, healthy food, and plenty of outdoor fun. One little nine-year-old girl who got to come to the United States said that she likes America.

Q: Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: Climate change,pollution,overuse of water and development are killing some of the world's most famous rivers including China's Yangtze.India's Ganges and Africa's Nile.WWF said on Tuesday.At the global launch of its report "World's Top 10 Rivers at Risk",the group said many rivers could dry out, affecting hundreds of millions of people and killing unique aquatic life. "If these rivers die,millions will lose their livelihoods,biodiversity will be destroyed on a massive scale,there will be less fresh water and agriculture,resulting in less food security,"said.Rayi Singh,secretary--general of WWF--India.The report launched ahead of "World Water Day" today,also cited the Rio Grande in the United States,the Mekong and Indus in Asia,Europe's Danube, La Plata in South America and Australia's Murray--Darling as in need of greater protection. Rivers are the world's main source of fresh water and WWF says about half of the available supply is already being used up.Dams have destroyed habitats and cut rivers off from their flood plains.while climate change could affect the seasonal water flows that feed them,the report said.Fish populations,the top source of protein and overall life support for hundreds of thousands of communities worldwide,are also being threatened, it found..The Yangtze basin is one of the most polluted rivers in the world because of decades of heavy industrialization,damming and huge influxes of sediment from land conversion. Climate change,including higher temperatures,also means serious consequences for fishery productivity,water supply and political security in Africa's arid Nile basin.Tributaries flowing into the Ganges are drying up because of irrigation,WWF said. Question: The top 10 rivers are fast dying as a result of the following EXCEPT _ . - climate change - wasting water - pollution - dams
A: wasting water

Read the following article and select the best answer. Article: Why do men die earlier than women? The latest research makes it known that the reason could be that men's hearts go into rapid decline when they reach middle age. The largest study of the effects of aging on the heart has found that women's _ may be linked to the fact that their hearts do not lose their pumping power with age. "We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20-25 percent between 18 and 70 years of age," said the head of the study, David Goldspink of Liverpool John Moores University in the UK. "Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it to beat. Between the age of 20 and 70, one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men," said Goldspink. "This is part of the aging process." What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells. A healthy 70-year-old woman's heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old one's. "This gender difference might just explain why women live longer than men," said Goldspink. They studied more than 250 healthy men and women between the ages of 18 and 80, focusing on healthy persons to remove the confusing influence of disease. "The team has yet to find why aging takes a greater loss on the male heart," said Goldspink. The good news is that men can improve the health of their heart with regular exercise. Goldspink stressed that women also need regular exercise to prevent their leg muscles becoming smaller and weaker as they age.
