Around the world, people are starting to measure the effects of global warmingand trying to figure out what to do about it.Scientist recently used satellites to study the temperatures of lakes around the world and they found that lakes are heating up. Between 1985 and 2009, satellites recorded the nighttime temperatures of the surfaces of 167 lakes. During those 24 years, the lakes got warmerby an average of about 0.045 degree Celsius per year. In some places, lakes have been warming by as much as 0.10 degree Celsius per year. At that rate, a lake may warm by a full degree Celsius in just 10 years. That difference may seem smallyou might not even notice it in your bath. But in a lake, slightly warmer temperatures could mean more algae（水藻）, and algae can make the lake poisonous to fish.The study shows that in some regions, lakes are warming faster than the air around them. This is important because scientists often use measurements of air temperature to study how Earth is warming. By using lake temperatures as well, scientists can get a better picture of global warming. The scientists say data on lakes give scientists a new way to measure the impact of climate change around the world.Thats going to be useful, since no country is too big or too small to ignore climate changes. Scientists arent the only ones concerned. Everyone who lives on Earth is going to be affected by the rapid warming of the planet. Many world leaders believe we might be able to do something about it, especially by reducing the amount of greenhouse（温室）gases we put into the air.Thats why the United Nations started the Framework Convention on Climate Change, or UNFCCC. Every year the convention meets, and representatives from countries around the world gather to talk about climate change and discuss global solutions to the challenges of a warming world.16、 Scientists have been keeping records of lake temperatures for over 30 years.A.

Hurricane winds blow in a large spiral(螺旋) around a relative calm center known as the “eye”. The “eye” is generally 20 to 30 miles wide, and the storm may extend outward 400 miles. As a hurricane nears land, it can bring heavy rains, high winds, and storm surges(风暴潮). The storm surges and heavy rains can lead to flooding.2 Hurricanes are given a different label, depending on where they occur. If they begin over the North Atlantic Ocean, the Caribbean Sea, the Gulf of Mexico, or the Northeast Pacific Ocean, they are called hurricanes. Similar storms that occur in the Northwest Pacific Ocean west of the International Date Line are called typhoons. Near Australia and in the Indian Ocean, they are referred to as tropical cyclones(龙卷风).3 When a hurricane hits land, it can do great damage through its fierce winds, heavy rains, inland(内陆的) flooding, and huge waves crashing on to the shore. During a hurricane, homes, businesses, and public buildings may be damaged or destroyed; roads and bridges can be washed away. A powerful hurricane can kill more people and destroy more property than any other natural disaster. Fishermen are at special risk from hurricanes as they may be at sea when a hurricane arrives and not be able to get to a safe harbor if they do not receive adequate warming.4 If a hurricane is coming in your area, the most important thing is to stay calm and find shelter immediately. Go to your safe room. If you do not have one, stay indoors during the hurricane and go to a safer place near the center of your home. Cover yourself with a blanket and be sure to keep away from windows and glass doors, because if the glass breaks its really dangerous. Do not be fooled if there is a lull(暂停)；it could be the eye of the storm- winds will pick up again.23.Paragraph 1 _24. Paragraph 2 _25. Paragraph 3 _26. Paragraph 4 _A. Where do hurricanes usually happen?B. What damages can a hurricane cause?C. What should you do during a hurricane?D. What is a hurricane?E. What are different names of hurricanes?F.

Heres a story about one successful businessperson. He started out washing dishes and today he owns 168 restaurants.Zubair Kazi was born in Bhatkal, a small town in southwest India. His dream was to be an airplane pilot, and when he was 16 years old, he learned to fly a small plane.At the age of 23 and with just a little money in his pocket, Mr. Kazi moved to the United States. He hoped to get a job in the airplane industry in California. Instead, he ended up working for a company that rented cars.While Mr. Kazi was working at he car rental(租赁的) company, he frequently ate at a nearby KFC restaurant. To save money on food, he decided to get a job with KFC. For two months, he worked as a cooks assistant. His job was to clean the kitchen and help the cook. “I didnt like it,” Mr Kazi says, “but I always did the best I could.”One day, Mr Kazis two co-workers failed to come to work. That day, Mr. Kazi did the work of all three people in the kitchen. This really impressed the owners of the restaurant. A few months later, the owners needed a manager for a new restaurant. They gave the job to Mr. Kazi. He worked hard as the manager and soon the restaurant was making a profit.A few years later, Mr Kazi heard about a restaurant that was losing money. The restaurant was dirty inside and the food was terrible. Mr. Kazi borrowed money from a bank and bought the restaurant. For the first six months, Mr. Kazi worked in the restaurant from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week. He and his wife cleaned up the restaurant, remodeled the front of the building and improved the cooking. They also tried hard to please the customers. If someone had to wait more than ten minutes for their food, Mrs. Kazi gave them a free soda. Before long the restaurant was making a profit.A year later, Mr. Kazi sold his restaurant for a profit. With the money he earned, he bought three more restaurants that were losing money. Again, he cleaned them up, improved the food, and retrained the employees. Before long these restaurants were making a profit, too.Today Mr. Kazi owns 168 restaurants, but he isnt planning to stop there. Hes looking for more poorly managed restaurants to buy. “ I love it when I go to buy a restaurant and find its a mess.” Mr. Kazi says. “ The only way it cango is up.”31. When Mr. Kazi was young, his dream was to A. be an airplane pilot. B. sell cars.C. own a restaurant. D. become a good cook.32. Mr. Kazi decided to work with KFC toA. learn how to cook. B. save money for a car.C. save money on food. D. learn how to run a restaurant.33. Mr. Kazi became the manager of a new restaurant becauseA. he worked very hard. B. his co-workers praised him.C. he was a good cook. D. he knew how to run a restaurant.34. To save a failing restaurant, Mr. Kazi did all the following things, EXCEPT to A. advertize for it. B. clean it up.C. improve the food. D. retrain the employees.35. In the last paragraph, “its a mess” meansA. its small. B. its profitable.C. its dirty. D. its cheap. 第二篇：The book of life（生命之书）So far, scientists have named about 1.6 million living species, and thats a just a fraction of that probably exists on Earth. With so many plants, animals, and other creatures coveting the planet, it can be tough to figure out what type of spider is moving up your leg or what kind of bird is flying by.A soon-to-be-started Web site might help. An international team of researchers has announced the creation of Web-based Encyclopedia of life（EOL）. The project aims to catalog every species on Earth in a single, easy-to-use reference guide.To get the encyclopedia started, the creators will use information from scientific databases that already exist. And eventually, in special sections of the site, nonscientist with specialized knowledge will get to join in. Bird-watchers, for example, will be able to input which bird theyve seen and where. The technology for this kind of tool has only become available.As the EOL develops, you might find it useful for school projects. The site will feature special pages for kids who are studying ecosystems（生态系统） in their neighborhoods. To make sure the encyclopedia is accurate, scientists will review much of the information added to it. People who visit the site will be able to choose to leave out pages that havent been reviewed.Another convenient feature of the EOL is that youll be able to pick the level of detail you want to see to match your interest, age, and knowledge. If you wanted to learn about bears for a science class report, for example, you could use the “novice” setting to get basic information about the animals. On the “expert” setting, on the other hand, you could get much more detailed information about the history, literature, and exploration of bears.It now takes years for scientist to collect all the data they need to describe and analyze species. The creator of the Encyclopedia of Life hope that their new tool will speed up that process.36. “Spider” and “bird” mentioned in Paragraph 1 are examples to illustrateA. animals are peoples friends.B. there are numerous living species on Earth.C. it is easy to see spiders and birds.D. there are many types of spiders and birds.37. The goal of the creation of the EOL is to A. collect enough data to analyze the living species on Earth.B. enlarge an existing Web site of the living species on Earth.C. work out an easy-to-use catalog of every living species on Earth.D. add new information to the existing databases of the living species on Earth.38. At the starting stage, the EOL will get information fromA. all the Web sites available.B. the existing scientific databases.C. databases built up by its creators.D. nonscientist with specialized knowledge.39. The word “novice” in Paragraph 5 could be best replaced by A. scientist. B. beginner. C. creator. D. expert.40. Which of the following statement is NOT true?A. The EOL will be beneficial to school kids with its development.B. Scientists have cataloged only a small part of the living species on Earth.C. People with different interests and knowledge will in a way find the EoL useful.D. Scientists will review every piece of the information added to the EOL. 第三篇：Weaving with LightIn the Sierra Madre mountain range of west central Mexico, the native Huichol people live much the way their ancestors did without electricity. Thats because its too expensive to string power lines to the remote mountain areas where they live. To help support themselves, the Huichol create beautiful artwork. They sell their art in cities hundreds of miles away from their villages. And without electricity at home or on the road, they can only work during daylight hours. When it gets dark, they must stop whatever theyre doing.Now, a team of scientists, designers, and architects is using new technologies to p
