( A )
After reading some of the letters printed in this newspaper, I\'m beginning to believe that the carbon monoxide(一氧化碳) in this city\'s air during the past year has already affected some people\'s ability to think straight.
The suggestion for limiting(限制) the use of cars seems fair and reasonable to me. I don\'t feel that it will produce any real suffering on the part of motorists, who sometimes seem to put their right to drive above everyone else\'s right to breathe.
Surely everyone can understand that it would be worse to have to wear gas masks in our city than to travel by bus or train. After all, breathing is necessary, and we might all breathe more easily if we could reduce (减少) the amount of pollution in our air.

A. complained that carbon monoxide had affected (影响) their own ability to think
B. complained that carbon monoxide had affected other people\'s ability to think
C. disagreed to the idea of limiting the use of cars
D. thought highly of the idea to limit the use of cars
52. The writer thinks that________.
A. cars do not pollute the air as much as some people think
B. carbon monoxide can actually affect people\'s health
C. motorists have the right to drive as much as they like
D. public vehicles (车辆) are more harmful than private cars
53. The motorists put their right to drive their cars aboveeveryone else\'s right to breathe clean air because ________.
A. they are brave B. they like driving
C. they don\'t appreciate(完全了解)the harm they\'ve caused
D. driving does no harm to other people\'s health
54. To be able to breathe cleaner air, the writer suggests ________.
A. wearing gas masks
B. reducing air pollution
C. limiting the use of buses
D. punishing the motorists
55. In writing this passage the writer is ________.
