lost.Hundreds of scientists,writers and academics sounded a warning to humanityin an open letter published last December:Policymakers and the rest of us must engageopenly with the risk of global col lapse.Researchers in many areas have projected thewidespread collapse as“a credible scenario(情景)this centuryw.A survey of scientists found that extreme weather events,food insecurity,andfreshwater shortages might create global collapse.Of course,if you are a non-humanspecies,collapse is well underway.The call for public engagement with the unthinkable is especially germane in thismoment of sti11-uncontrolled pandemic and economic crises in the worlds mosttechnologically advanced nations.Not very long ago,it was also unthinkable that avirus would shut down nations and that safety nets would be proven so disastrouslykicking in flexibility.The international scholars*warning letter doesn*t say exactly what collapse willlook like or when it might happen.Collapseology,the study of collapse,is moreconcerned with identifying trends and with them the dangers of everyday civilization.Among the signatories(签署者)of the warning was Bob Johnson,the originator of theMecological footprintM concept,which measures the total amount of environmentalinput needed to maintain a given lifestyle.With the current footprint of humanity,“it seems that global col lapse is certain to happen in some form,possibly wi thin adecade,certainly within this century,w Johnson said in an emai1.“Only if we discuss the consequences of our biophysical limits,“the Decemberwarning letter says,“can we have the hope to reduce their speed,severity and harm”.And yet messengers of the coming disturbance are likely to be ignored.W e all want tohope things will turn out fine.As a poet wrote,Man is a victim of dope(麻醉品)In the incurable form of hope.The hundreds of scholars who signed the letter are intent(执着)on quieting hopethat ignores preparedness.Lets look directly into the issue of collapse,M theysay,“and deal wi th the terrible possibi i ties of what we see there to make the bestof a troubling future.”28.What does the underlined word“germane”in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Scientific.B.Credible.C.Original.D.Relevant.29.As for the pub!ic awareness of global col lapse,the author is.A.worried B.puzzledC.surprised D.scared30.What can we learn from this passage?A.The signatories may change the biophysical limits.B.The author agrees with the message of the poem.C.The issue of collapse is being prioritized.D.The global collapse is well underway.Early fifth-century phi losopher St.Augustine famously wrote that he knew whattime was unless someone asked him.Albert Einstein added another wrinkle when hetheorized that time varies depending on where you measure it.Todays state-of-the-artatomic(原子的)clocks have proven Einstein right.Even advanced physics can,tdecisively tel 1 us what time is,because the answer depends on the question you*re asking.Forget about time as an absolute.What if,instead of considering time in termsof astronomy,we related time to ecology?What if we tillowed environmental conditionsto set the tempo(节奏)of human life?Were increasingly aware of the fact that wecan,t control Earth systems wi th engineering alone,and realizing that we need tomoderate(调节)our actions if we hope to 1 ive in balance.What if our definition oftime reflected that?Recently,1 conceptualized a new approach to timekeeping that*s connected tocircumstances on our planet,conditions that might change as a result of globalwarming.Were now building a clock at the Anchorage Museum that reflects the totalflow of several major Alaskan rivers,which are sensitive to local and globalenvironmental changes.Weve programmed it to match an atomic clock if the waterwayscontinue to flow at their present rate.If the rivers run faster in the future on average,the clock will get ahead of standard time.If they run slower,you 11 see the oppositeeffect.The clock registers both short-term irregularities and long-term trends in riverdynamics.Its a sort of observatory that reveals how the riveis are behaving from theirown temporal frame(时间框架),and allows us to witness those changes on our smartwatchesor phones.Anyone who opts to go on Alaska Mean River Time will live in harmony withthe planet.Anyone who considers river time in relation to atomic time will encountera major imbalance and may be motivated to counteract it by consuming less fuel orsupporting greener policies.Even if this method of timekeeping is novel in its particulars,early agriculturalsocieties also connected time to natural phenomena.In pre-Classical Greece,forinstance,people ucorrectedM official calendars by shifting dates forward or backwardto reflect the change of season.Temporal connection to the environment was vitai totheir survival.Likewise,river time and other timekeeping systems were developingmay encourage environmental awareness.When St.Augustine admitted his inability to define time,he highlighted one oftime s most noticeabl e q ual ities:Time becomes meaningful onl y in a defined context.A nytimekeeping system is val id,and each is as pr aisew or thy as its pur pose.3 1.What is the main idea of Par agr aph 1?A.Timekeeping is incr easingl y r el ated to natur e.B.E ver yone can define time on their ow n ter ms.C.The q ual ities of time
