Are Your Clothes Causing Pollution? Very small pieces of plastic, called microfibers, are polluting rivers and oceans. 1. Clothes worn for outdoor activities and exercise are often made of artificial material, which is useful in keeping warm. But they contain very small plastic fibers, which may also be harming the environment when you wash them. When people wash these clothes, very small pieces go down the drain （下水道） with the wash water．
2.
Pollution caused by plastic is not new，but recent studies have shown the effect of microfibers in the environment．
Studies show very small microfibers are ending up in our waters，which may come from waste water treatment factories．A 2015 study found them in fish from California．
Microfibers, effect on food supplies．
Beyond the waterways，the researchers say microfibers may end up in soil and agricultural lands． 3.This means there is much to be learned about microfibers and the environment．Some studies have shown that microfibers end up inside sea animals，like oysters． 4. Researchers say that the fibers tend not to move into the tissue of the fish，but it needs more study．
Steps to save or keep microfibers from the environment．
Until more information becomes known，there are steps to take to reduce the amount of microfibers in the environment．People should use less of the artificial materials．If we already have those in our lives and we're using them，an important step would be washing them less． 5. A bag is being designed in which to wash these clothes．It traps the microfibers in the bag and it may be available for purchase soon．
A．New technology may also help．
B．Studies on microfibers in the environment．
C．They can also move around the atmosphere．
D．Studies on how much of the microfibers is released．
E．The source of these microfibers may surprise you: your clothes．
F．Washing machines keep microfibers from escaping with wash water．
G . So if these microfibers have been found in fish and seafood, are they safe to eat?
Are you an optimist? Do you look at your glass and see it as half full? Do you believe that every cloud has a silver lining and that generally things turn out for the best? Do you believe that if something is meant to be, it will be? If you reply “yes” to all of these questions, then you are an optimist. You probably are enthusiastic, cheerful and outgoing. You may well be successful at work and in love.
But you may be misguided because things don’t turn out for the best. You may believe that when one door closes another one opens (For example, you may fail to land a new job, but another chance will come around soon). Wrong. When one door closes, another door slams in your face. That’s bitter reality.
Now a book has been published which confirms what we pessimists(悲观者) have suspected all along. It’s called The Positive Power of Defensive Pessimism. Its author argues that defensive pessimism can lead to positive results. Defensive pessimism is a strategy used to manage fear, anxiety and worry. Defensive pessimists prepare for things by setting low outcomes for themselves. They carefully consider everything that may go wrong and plan for ways to handle these problems. And this gives them a sense of control. Lawrence Sanno, a psychology professor, says, “What’s interesting about defensive pessimists is that they tend to be very successful people, so their low opinion of the situation’s outcomes is not realistic. They use it to motivate themselves to perform better.”
So far, so good. This is not rocket science. Defensive pessimists prepare carefully and consider what might go wrong, whether at work, on a date or even in a sports game. It makes sense to have a backup plan. There are many sayings in English urging caution. For example, “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket”, and “Don’t count your chickens until they hatch.” To have a confident and optimistic approach to life’s problems is good. But listen to what Woody Alien, the American comedian says, “Confidence is what you have before you understand the problem.”
There are pros and cons to being an optimist and a pessimist. Don’t feel bad if you see the glass half empty. You are a realist. But lighten up and hook up with someone who sees the same glass half full.
