Ever wonder how this season’s celebrations affect the environment? Guest blogger Krista Fairles takes an amusing look at this very topic:

The holidays are a wonderful, cheerful time when most people wait for Santa to bring them presents. But I’m not like most people. I spend my time wondering just what the environmental impacts of Santa Claus and his reindeer are, and more importantly, how I can calculate those impacts.

Lately I’ve been particularly curious as to whether Santa’s old sled is a clean green flying machine, or if he should be replacing his 8 reindeer with an environmentally-friendly car.

I should mention that, surprisingly, I was unable to find statistics specific to Santa’s magical flying reindeer, so these calculations use numbers from various sources and may not represent actual pollution caused by Santa and his animals. In other words, don’t complain to the government about the damage Santa is causing the environment based on this article.

Santa’s yearly trip around the globe is 44,000km long, twice the average of a North American driver. If we assume that the magic provides the altitude for this trip, then reindeer power only needs to push Santa’s sled forward. To complete the trip in 12 hours, I estimate they must travel at a speed of about 3100km/h. To travel at this speed, for this length of time, the reindeer need to eat an incredible 980 million calories each!!

So the next question is: how much food is in 980 million calories? Well, if they’re eating corn, they’d need to eat 16,500 lbs each — or 1.6 acres of food. Growing 12.8 acres of corn has its own implications for the environment that we’ll leave for another calculation.

We now need to consider that during the global trip the reindeer are “l(fā)etting out” some of that corn in the form of methane (甲烷，沼氣). A resting cow produces 110 kg of methane per year, so flying reindeer would each let out about 4.8 tons. With methane causing 20 times the global warming damage of CO2, and the altitude increasing that damage by 1000% that another 20 times, we can put Santa’s round-trip emissions at 15,488 tons. This is much more than the 100 tons an environmentally-friendly car would release on the same trip!

Bad Santa.

1. Which aspect does the writer NOT include in her analyses about reindeer’s influence on environment?

A. Distance covered.                                      B. Calories consumed.

C. Tons of waste let out.                       D. Money spent on food.

2. According to Paragraph 6, how many acres of corn would Santa need to feed 10 reindeer?

A. 1.6.                 B. 16.                           C. 12.8.                        D. 128.

3. Which of the following statements would the writer most probably agree with?

A. Christmas celebrations are really a waste of money.

B. Vegetarians are more likely to survive than meat-eaters.

C. Raising animals has a negative influence on environment.

D. The car industry does less harm to environment than farming.

4. Which of the following words best describes the language style of the passage?

A. Humourous and concerned.                    B. Cheerful and friendly.

C. Academic and formal.                               D. Serious and boring.

5. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?

A. Is Santa driving clean and green?

B. Santa, watch where you’re going!

C. Santa Claus is coming to town!

D. Let’s reduce waste on Christmas celebrations!

Drunken driving——sometimes called America’s socially accepted form of41_——has become a national infectious disease．Every hour of every day about three Americans on average are killed by drunken drivers, adding up to an42number of 250,000over the past decade．

A drunken driver is usually defined as one with a 0．10 blood alcohol content or      43three beers, glasses of wine or shots of whisky drunk within two hours．Heavy drinking used to be an acceptable part of the American strong man image and judges were not44in most courts, but the drunken slaughter has recently caused so many well-publicized tragedies, especially45young children, that public opinion is no longer so      46      of it．

Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21, altering a47in the 1960s to reduce it to 18．After New Jersey lowered it to 18, the number of people killed by 18-20-year-old drivers more than doubled, so the state recently upped it back to 21．

Reformers, however, fear raising the drinking age will have little effect unless48by educational programs to help young people to develop “responsible attitudes” about drinking and teach them to49strong pressure to drink．

Tough new laws have led to increased arrests and tests and, in many areas already, to a marked decrease in fatalities（死亡事故）．Some states are also penalizing bars for serving customers too many drinks．

Nearly everyone was very much against motor cars when they first appeared．So the government found a very clever way to try and drive them off the roads.

   Back in 1861, a previous government had passed a law about the heavy steam vehicles which were beginning to crawl about the roads of Britain．This law said that no vehicle should go more than 10 miles an hour in the country and 5 miles an hour in town．Four years later these speed limits were reduced to 4 and 2 m.p.h, and a man with a red flag had to walk in front to warn people of the danger．

   This law applied to ordinary cars, too, and the police started to arrest drivers who broke the speed limit and didn't have a man with a red flag．Of course, it made the idea of motor cars seem quite ridiculous．But this law was stopped in 1878 and the speed limit was raised to the frightening speed of 14 m.p.h, in 1896．A special race was held from London to Brighton to celebrate this victory for the motor car industry．The London-Brighton Veteran Car Run is still held every November to mark this event．Only cars made before 1905 may take part．In the first rally there were no more than 33 entrants, and only 22 of them finished the course．Nowadays, so many old cars apply to go on the run that the organizers have had to restrict the entry.

   Early motorists had to carry their own spare parts and do their own repairs．If they had a real breakdown, the only chance of getting anywhere was to borrow a horse and hitch it to the front of the car!

1．What do the first two paragraphs mainly tell us?

       A．The heavy steam vehicles appeared as early as 1861.

       B．No one liked motor cars when they first appeared.

       C．The British government tried to do away with motor cars.

       D．The first car drivers had to pay attention to the speed limits.

2．What does the underlined “it” in the third paragraph refer to?

       A．The law．          B．The speed limit． C．A red flag．         D．The government.

3．According to the passage, the following is true EXCEPT _______.

       A．The cars were allowed to run faster in 1861 than they were in 1865

       B．Motor cars were not popular when they first appeared

       C．The London-Brighton Veteran Car Run has become more popular

       D．The law was stopped in 1896 and a special race was held to celebrate it

4．If the car had a very serious mechanical problem on the road, most probably the early motorists would __________.
