SINCE the 1997 international agreement to fight global warming, climate change has worsened and speeded up – beyond even the worst expectations of the 1997 talks in Kyoto, Japan.

  As world leaders have spent a dozen years trying to figure out what to do next, new ship passages have opened through the once frozen summer sea ice of the Arctic. In Greenland and Antarctica, ice sheets have lost trillions of tons of ice. Mountain glaciers in Europe, South America, Asia and Africa are shrinking faster than before.

   And it's not just the frozen parts of the world that have felt the heat in the dozen years leading up to next month's climate summit in Copenhagen: The world's oceans have risen by about 4cm. Droughts  and wildfires have become more frequent worldwide. Animals and plants are now in trouble because of the changing climate. These include the polar bears, butterflies, frogs and entire stands of North American pine forests. Temperatures over the past 12 years are 0.4 degrees warmer than in the dozen years leading up to 1997.

   Even the gloomiest (令人沮喪的) climate models from the 1990s didn't forecast results this bad.

   “The latest science is telling us we are in more trouble than we thought,'' said Janos Pasztor, climate adviser to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon.

    And here's why: Since an agreement to reduce greenhouse gas pollution was signed in Kyoto, Japan, in December 1997, the level of carbon dioxide in the air has increased by 6.5 percent. From 1997 to 2008, world carbon dioxide emissions (排放) from the burning of fossil (化石) fuels have increased by 31 percent. US emissions of this greenhouse gas have risen by 3.7 percent. Emissions from China have more than doubled.

Some climate change can be caused by natural factors such as variations in solar radiation, volcanoes, land drift (位移) and ocean drift. However, most of scientific and public opinion has come to the conclusion that the climate is changing mainly because of the accumulation of greenhouse gases (especially CO2) in the atmosphere due to human activity.

   From December 7 to 18, officials from across the world will meet in Copenhagen to seek a solution for this problem. If successful, the meeting will send a clear signal to business and industry, governments and citizens around the world. New commitments and plans will signal that the future belongs to a low-carbon economy and that tomorrow's winners will be those who invest (投資) in clean energy solutions.

 66. We can learn from the passage that        

A. The 1997 climate summit was held in Copenhagen

 B. Since 1997,the level of carbon dioxide in the air has decreased by 6.5%.

C. The Copenhagen summit is intended to announce new ship passages to the Arctic

E

Water and its importance to human life are the center of the world’s attention. March 22 is World Water Day, which has the theme “Water and culture ”this year. Ther are more than one billion people in the world who live without safe drinking water. The United Nations hopes to cut this number in half by 2015.

Solving such a big problem seems like an unreal challenge. But everyone, even teenagers, can do something to help. A teenage girl in the U.S. has set an example to others of her age around the world. Rene Haggerty, 13, was awarded the 2004 Gloria Barron Prize for her work of collecting deserted batteries which pollute water.

In 2003, Haggerty went on a field trip to the Great Lakes Science Centre in Ohio. There, she saw an exhibit about how chemicals in old batteries harm the water of Lake Erie. Haggerty learnt that recycling the batteries was an easy solution. “I think everybody can do it, because everyone uses batteries, and it can make a big difference.”With these words, she began to increase awareness in her area.

She talked to her county government and school board. She got permission to start a recycling programme in schools as well as the public libraries, hospitals, and churches. With the help from her family, friends and local waste-management officials, she gathered containers, arranged transportation, and made an educational video.

Over the past two years, she collected four tons of batteries and drew the attention of officials, who were in charge of a battery recycling programme but had made little progress. When asked if she feels like a hero, Haggerty is quite modest. “Not really. Well, maybe for the fish I saved!”

Every year the Gloria Barron Prize honors young Americans aged 8 to 18 who have shown leadership and courage in serving the public and the planet. Each year ten winners receive $2,000 each, to help with their education costs or their public service work.

68.According to the passage, how many people probably can’t drink safe drinking water in 2015?

A.About I billion.                                            B.About 2 billion.

C.About 500 million.                                        D.About 5 million.

69.In order to collect used batteries, Rene Haggerty did the following things EXCEPT_______.

A.gather some containers                                  B.arrange the transportation

C.make an educational video                             D.go on a field trip

70.The best title for this passage should be_______ .

A.A girl awarded the 2004 Gloria Barron Prize

B.A girl acts to clean the world’s water

C.We should protect our environment

D.A girl collecting batteries

D

Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent, person’s intelligence is fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.

It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random(隨意地) from the population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.

Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is  boring. We should soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.

68. The writer is in favor of the view that man’s intelligence is given to him

A. at birth                          B. through education

C. both at birth and through education    D. neither at birth nor through education

69. If a child is born with low intelligence, he is unlikely to      

A. become a genius so long as he or she works hard enough

B. still become a genius if he should be given special education

C. go beyond his intelligence limits even in rich surroundings

D. never reaches his intelligence limits in his life

70. The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separately shows

A. the importance of their intelligence      

B. the role of environment on intelligence

C. the importance of their positions        

D. the part that birth plays

71. What can be the best title for the text?

A. Surroundings                           B. Intelligence

C. Dependence on Environment              D. Effect of Education

One would have to be a fool to overlook the importance of using positive thinking for you rather than allowing negative thinking to work against you. In recent years, research in psychopharmacology (精神藥理學) has proved what many people have known over the centuries: a positive attitude is good for you, good for your health, good for your wealth, good for everything. Researchers found that a positive attitude produces a specific chemical reaction which makes people feel better, while negative thinking results in a decline of hormone (荷爾蒙) and shuts down the immune (免疫的) system. This leads to illness and depression. Positive thoughts will make you feel better. Even if you must begin by literally forcing yourself to be positive (faking it, so to speak), it will become contagious (會傳播的) and the positive thoughts will generate nice little w*w^w..c~o*mchemicals and good feelings which will reinforce the positive thoughts.

For example, if you force yourself to smile or laugh, even when you don't feel like smiling or laughing, if you keep at it for a few minutes, you will soon feel like it. Feelings can generate thoughts, but thoughts can also generate feelings. Control your thoughts and you can control your feelings. Positive thinking is important in all aspects of our lives. There is probably no single factor more important in determining your success in achieving your career objectives than your own attitude.

It's often been said that in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. And in the office of militant (好戰(zhàn)) negativism, the positive workers shine like gold. You cannot control external events, but you can learn to control your reaction to those events and thereby have a positive attitude and be happy. This vital key to success is totally within your control. Use it.

67. We can infer from the passage that         .

A. positive thinking can cure you of your diseases

B. positive thinking can easily be generated by anyone

C. a decline of hormone may cause you to be depressed

D. a specific chemical reaction is the cause of negative thinking

68. According to the passage, which of the following is true?

A. Feeling and thoughts can generate each other.

B. It's easier to control thoughts than to control feelings.

C. Your success depends wholly on your attitude.

D. Keeping smiling will surely make you successful.

69. Just like a one-eyed man in the land of the blind, you should              .

A. take positive attitude in the office of militant negativism

B. be king in your office

C. pay no attention to what is going on around you

D. control your feeling to what is happening to you

70. The best title to the passage is               .

A. the Bad Effect of Negative Thinking     B. Why Should People Think

C. Positive Thinking Benefits People        D. Thinking: The Vital Way
