35、living in todays world.Dr.Wallace:It was my pleasure to be here.Announcer:So,now youve heard what Dr.Wallace has to say about pesticides and how they relate to our health and the environment.Lets open the floor up for questions.We would appreciate hearing from you.I think we have our first question.
36、Go ahead,sir.Male Speaker 1:OK.Heres my question.Dr.Wallace,I heard that flame-retardants are now turning up in the human body.Is this true,and if so,how dangerous are those chemicals?,To be continued,Listening 1,Dr.Wallace:All right.Well,flame-retardantswhich are chemicals that make products diffic
37、ult to burnare added to just about any product that can burn,and they save hundreds of lives a year in the United States alone.Unfortunately,one family of flame-retardant compounds called PBDEs have been showing up in the blood of humans,but little is known about their impact on our health.In high a
38、mounts,they have caused health problems in laboratory animals.However,it looks as though the small amounts of PBDEs that normally accumulate in the human body arent worth worrying about.Announcer:Thank you,Doctor.We have another question.The woman in the third row.Go ahead.,To be continued,Listening
39、 1,Female Speaker 1:Hi,Dr.Wallace.Im a mother of two young children,and I recently moved into anew apartment.I just found out that the walls are painted with lead paint.What should I do?Dr.Wallace:Well,its known that even very small amounts of lead can cause brain damage in children.If the paint is
40、chipping or flaking,call your landlord.Its his or her responsibility to fix the problem.Another good option is to move,but if you cant,at least make sure that your children arent exposed to paint chips or dust.Announcer:That sounds like good advice.Lets take another question.OK,go ahead.,To be conti
41、nued,Listening 1,Male Speaker 2:Hello,Doctor.I eat a lot of seafoodespecially swordfish and tuna.Is there any danger to me from mercury in those fish?Dr.Wallace:Mercury is a very dangerous pollutant which persists for a long time in the environment.It needs to be taken seriously because mercury pois
42、oning can permanently damage memory and our ability to learn.Coal-burning power plants are a major source of mercury.It gets into the water and into the bodies of the smallest animals first.These small animals are eaten by larger ones,which are then eaten by even larger ones,and so on up the food ch
43、ain.,To be continued,Listening 1,Dr.Wallace:Large fish at the top of the food chain,such as tuna and swordfish,accumulate high amounts of mercuryand pass it on to people who eat seafood.Now,it doesnt appear that traces of mercury in the blood are a serious problem,but I could be wrong.Eating too muc
44、h of those fish could raise the amount of mercury in your body to a dangerous level,so I would advise you to eat them in moderationmeaning a reasonable amount.Announcer:Well,it looks like we have time for one more question.The lady in the red shirt.Go ahead.Female Speaker 2:Hello and thanks for taki
45、ng my question.What Im concerned about is my constant cell-phone use.Could it have a negative impact on my health?,To be continued,Listening 1,Dr.Wallace:Thats an interesting question and one Im sure many are concerned about.One common concern is the danger of driving and using a cell phone at the s
46、ame time.Cell phones take our attention off the road,and that can lead to accidents.The solution to that problem is simple:turn off your cell phone while driving,and dont ever text message while driving.Another concern has to do with radiation.For those of you who arent familiar with thisradiation i
47、s energy that certain machines and some substances produce.Large amounts of radiation can be dangerous.Cell phones send information using radiation,so naturally were exposed to that radiation when we use our phone.,To be continued,Listening 1,Dr.Wallace:Cell-phone radiation has caused brain cancer i
48、n rats,but its danger to humans is difficult to assess.Some studies have indicated that cell phones are safe,but some other studies seem to link cell-phone radiation with brain cancer in humans,especially in people who have been using cell phones for a decade or longer.Im not altogether sure that yo
49、u can eliminate radiation exposure from cell phones,but people who are concerned about it can reduce the risk by using a headset.This keeps the phone away from your head and exposes you to less radiation.Announcer:Im afraid thats all the time we have.Thanks very much,Dr.Wallace,for the information a
