With a little effort, and not much money, most of us could reduce our energy diets by 25 percent or more doing the Earth a favor while also helping our wallets.Not long ago, my wife, PJ, and I tried a new diet not to lose a little weight but to answer an annoying question about climate change. Scientists have reported recently that the world is heating up even faster than predicted only a few years ago，and that the consequences could be severe if we don t keep reducing emissions (排放) of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases that are trapping heat in our atmosphere.We decided to try an experiment.For one month we recorded our personal emissions of CO2. We wanted to see how much we could cut back, so we went on a strict diet. The average US household(家庭) produces about 150 pounds of CO2 a day by doing common place things like turning on airconditioning or driving cars. That s more than twice the European average and almost five times the global average, mostly because Americans drive more and have bigger houses. But how much should we try to reduce?For an answer, I checked with Tim Flannery, author of The Weather Makers: How Man Is Changing the Climate and What It Means for Life on Earth.in his book, he had challenged readers to make deep cuts in personal emissions to keep the world from reaching extremely important tipping_points，such as the melting (融化) of the ice sheets in Greenland or West Antarctica. “To stay below that point, we need to reduce CO2 emissions by 80 percent， he said.Good advice, I thought.I d opened our bedroom windows to let in the wind. We d gotten so used to keeping our airconditioning going around the clock.I d almost forgotten the windows even opened.We should not let this happen again. It s time for us to change our habits if necessary.语篇解读我们已经知道，减缓气候变化最快、最经济的方法就是少用能源。举手之劳，大局部人就能把所消耗的能源减少25%以上，并能减少CO2的排放量一方面保护地球，另一方面对自己的钱包也有帮助。那我们何乐而不为呢？5Why did the author and his wife try a new diet?A. To take special kinds of food.B. To respond to climate change.C. To lose weight.D. To improve their health.解析细节理解题。依据文章第二段中的“not to lose a little weight but to answer an annoying question about climate change可知，作者这么做的目的是答复一个令人烦恼的气候变化问题。答案B6The underlined words “tipping points most probably refer to “_A. freezing points B. burning pointsC. melting points D. boiling points解析猜想词义题。在他的书中，他要读者大幅减少个人温室气体排放量，以免世界来到“引爆的临界点，下面给出的例子“such as the melting(融化)of the ice sheets in Greenland or West Antarctica，可以判断出C项正确。答案C7It can be inferred from the passage that_.A. it is necessary to keep the airconditioning on all the timeB. it seems possible for every household to cut emissions of CO2C. the average US household produces about 3,000 pounds of CO2 a monthD. the average European household produces about 1,000 pounds of CO2 a month解析推理判断题。由第一段和最后一段可知大多数人可以减少能源消耗与温室气体的排放量。应选B。答案B8Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A. Saving Energy Starts at HomeB. Changing Our Habits Begins at WorkC. Changing Climate Sounds ReasonableD. Reducing Emissions of CO2 Proves Difficult解析主旨大意题。文章作者通过讲述自己一家人切实有效地减少温室气体排放量的行动，向我们证明了：节约能源从家庭做起，从我做起。故A项正确。答案A*结束完型填空8Today is Friday, the 29th of June.
