4.A rainforest is an area covered by tall trees with the total high rainfall spreading quite equally through the year and the temperature rarely dipping below l6℃.Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun and adjust the climate.Without the forest cover,these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere,warming the rest of the world.Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns,potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world.
In the past hundred years,humans have begun destroying rainforests in search of three major resources(資源):land for crops,wood for paper and other products,land for raising farm animals.This action affects the environment as a whole.For example,a lot of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳)in the air comes from burning the rainforests.People obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees but we will suffer much more than we will benefit.
There are two main reasons for this.Firstly,when people cut down trees,generally they can only use the land for a year or two.Secondly,cutting large sections of rainforests may provide a good supply of wood right now,but in the long run it actually reduces the world's wood supply.
Rainforests are often called the world's drug store.More than 25% of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforests.However,fewer than l%of rainforest plants have been examined for their medical value.It is extremely likely that our best chance to cure diseases lies somewhere in the world's shrinking rainforests.

72.Rainforests can help to adjust the climate because theyD.
A.reflect more heat into the atmosphere  
B.bring about high rainfall throughout the world
C.rarely cause the temperature to drop lower than l6℃
D.reduce the effect of heat from the sun on the earth
73.What does the word"this"underlined in the third paragraph refer to?A
A.We will lose much more than we can gain.  B.Humans have begun destroying rainforests.
C.People have a strong desire for resources.  D.Much carbon dioxide comes from burning rainforests.
74.It can be inferred from the text thatB.
A.we can get enough resources without rainforests     
B.there is great medicine potential in rainforests
C.we will grow fewer kinds of crops in the gained land  
D.the level of annual rainfall affects wind patterns
75.What might be the best title for the text?C
A.How to Save Rainforests  
B.How to Protect Nature
C.Rainforests and the Environment 
D.Rainforests and Medical Development.

Dear Editor-in-Chief,
Congratulations on,the,5'h anniversary,of Global Mirror!
I'm a regular reader of your newspaper.I like it very much mainly for the following two reasons.First,it covers both national and international news so that,by simply turning the pages,I can learn all important things that have happened during the week.Equally attractive are the success stories of world-famous people,which help me understand how a person can work hard to make the world a better place.
As a young student,I suggest that Global Mirror carry articles to guide us in our English learning,and I hope that it will become even more popular.
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua.

As is described in the picture,a person was persuaded into a smalll cage,who was told he would be cured of his fear of snakes,heights,small spaces and commitment in just six hours in that way.Additionally,the cage,with some snakes inside,was high up on four columns.
According to my understanding,the picture describes a person with some mental disability,as a result of which,he prefers to stay in large spaces with other's company.However,the doctor is trying all his out to help the person,supposing that it's more difficult for such patients to recover if they are only treated by means of pleasing them.Instead of offering him medicine,the doctor has his unique way of treating this patient,pushing him to face his problems directly.
From my perspective,life is filled with ups and downs.It goes beyond doubt that under no circumstances should we avoid challenges or responsibility.Quite the contray,we are supposed to face them with courage and wisdom..
