provide welcome relief from the hot summer sun.But when that single tree ispart of a small forest,it creates a considerable cooling effect.According to a study published today in theProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences,trees play a big role in keeping our cities cool.According to the study,the right amount of tree cover can lower summer daytime temperatures by as muchas 10 degrees Fahrenheit.And the effect is quite noticeable from neighborhood to neighborhood,even down tothe scale of a single city block.“We knew that cities are warmer than the surrounding countryside,but we foundthat temperatures vary just as much within cities,”says Monica Turner,a professor in the department ofIntegrative Biology,Wisconsin-Madison University and a co-author of the study.With climate change making extreme heat events more common each summer,city planners are working onhow to prepare.Heat waves drive up energy demands and costs and can have big human health impacts.Onepotentially powerful tool,the studys authors say,are organisms that have been around long before humancivilizations could appreciate their leafy benefits.And those trees may be the secret to keeping the places we livelivable.Essentially,says Turner,roads,sidewalks and buildings absorb heat from the sun during the day and slowlyrelease that heat at night.Trees,on the other hand,not only shade those surfaces from the suns rays,they alsorelease water into the air through their leaves,a process that cools things down.To get the maximum benefit of this cooling service,the study found that tree cover must be more than 40percent.In other words,an aerial picture of a single city block would need to be nearly half-way covered by a leafygreen network of branches and leaves.8.What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A.Temperatures in cities mainly depend on their green coverage.B.People living and working in cities must plant trees in summer.C.Cities are warmer than the countryside because they dont have trees.D.An area with more trees can be cooler than the other parts within a city.9.Which of the following problems is caused by extreme heat events?A.Severe damage of city facilities.B.Serious human health problems.C.Residents growing demands for plants.D.Unnecessary waste of energy resources.10.Why are trees crucial to cities?A.They help shade and cool the cities.B.They make urban scenery beautiful.C.They build up city cooling systems.D.They essentially block and release heat.11.What can city planners conclude from the study?A.They should publish the study in a newspaper.B.They should educate citizens to protect forests.C.They should plant trees on roads and sidewalks.D.They should cover nearly half the city with trees.DBy mid-century there will likely be 9 billion people on the planet,using ever more resources and leading evermore technologically complex lives.What will our cities be like?How much will artificialintelligence(AI)advance?Will global warming cause disastrous changes,or will we be able to engineer our way out of the climate changeissues?Recently,the magazineBig Thinkasked top minds from a variety of fields to weigh in on what the futureholds 40 years from now.The result is as follows.Its likely that by 2050 the majority of the people in the world will live in urban areas and will have a muchhigher average age than people today.Cities theorist Richard thinks urbanization will transform the educationsystem of,making our economy less houses driven and removing the divisions between home and work.And rapidly advancing technology will continue ever more rapidly.Cities of the future wont look like“somesort of science-fiction fantasy”,but its likely that technological advances and information overlays(VR and AR)willgreatly change how we live.Self-driving cars will make the roads safer and provide faster transports.A largerversion of driverless cars-driverless trucks may make long-distance drivers out of date.Some long view predictions are completelydire.Environmentalist Bill says that if we dont make greatprogress in fighting global warming,its likely we could see out-of-control rises in sea levels,huge crop shortfallsand wars over limited freshwater resources.In terms of how we will eat,green markets founder and“real food supporter Nina believes that there will bemore small milk processing plants and more regional food operations and well be healthier as a result.New YorkTimeswriter Mark thinks that people will eat fewer processed foods and eat foods grown closer to where they live.And more people will be aware of the ethical responsibility to grow foods.12.What may happen by 2050 based on the magazineBig Think?A.Education will be driven by economy.B.The majority of people will be taller.C.AI
