　　英语六级阅读专项训练题原文

　　Conversely，when large numbers of negative ions are present，then people have a feelingof well-being. Natural conditions that produce these large amounts are near the sea，close towaterfalls or fountains，or in any place where water is sprayed，or forms a spray. This probablyaccounts for the beneficial effect of a holiday by the sea， or in the mountains with tumblingstreams or waterfalls.

　　To increase the supply of negative ions indoors，some scientists recommend the use ofionisers：small portable machines，which generate negative ions. They claim that ionisersnot only clean and refresh the air but also improve the health of people sensitive to excesspositive ions. Of course，there are the detractors，other scientists，who dismiss such claimsand are skeptical about negative/positive ion research. Therefore people can only make uptheir own minds by observing the effects on themselves，or on others，of a negative rich orpoor environment. After all it is debatable whether depending on seismic readings toanticipate earthquakes is more effective than watching the cat.
