The first is the story of each of the three hikers.

19、Lankford offers a biography of each of the missing men and shows them through the eyes of those who knew them well and those who joined the search.Right underneath the narratives about the three hikers are the stories of everyone looking for them. Lankford played a role in each search but she allowe

26、nts.DIts a detailed account of a journey.CTropical (热带的) forests could become so hot that some kinds of leaves will no longer be able to conduct photosynthesis (光合作用), according to a study. The photosynthetic machinery in tropical trees begins to fail at about 46.7on average. The research suggests t

27、hat forests may be nearing dangerous temperature sooner than expected. Models predict that once we hit a global temperature increase of 3.9, these forests might experience mass leaf damage.Chris Doughty, an associate professor at Northern Arizona University and the lead researcher of the study, said

28、 the leaf-warming experiments had revealed a nonlinear rise in temperatures. “We were really surprised that when we warmed leaves by 2, 3 or 4, the highest leaf temperatures actually increased by 8. This shows a concerning nonlinear feedback that we were not expecting.” said Doughty. “If we adopt a

29、do-nothing response to climate change and tropical forest air temperatures increase by greater than 4C, there could be massive leaf death.” he added.Avoiding high emissions in the first place is key to stabilizing temperatures. “We should do all we can to avoid high-emissions. Under low-emissions, a

30、lmost all tropical forest tree leaves can avoid death from overheating and the trees will survive,” said Simon Lewis, a professor of global change science at University College London. “Yet what the study doesnt look at is heatwaves. We still might see tree deaths from overheating for limited period

31、s during heatwaves under lower emissions.”Researchers suggest that the damage is not yet unchanged. “Vote for people who are serious about addressing climate change and transferring to low-carbon economies,” Disney, one researcher, advocated. More generally, we can all recognize the importance of su

32、pporting those countries and people who live in and rely on tropical forests economically. But the serious changes to tropical forests dont just affect the local people its a global issue.28Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “nonlinear” in Paragraph 2?AGlobal.BDramatic.CStea

New UBC research suggests liv

35、ing in areas with high exposure to green space can help set them up for success.For the study, the researchers at UBC analyzed the developmental scores of 27, 372 children in Metro Vancouver who attended kindergarten between 2005 and 2011. They estimated the amount of green space around each childs

36、residence from birth to age five. They also assessed levels of traffic-related air pollution and community noise.The results highlight the fundamental importance of natural green spaces like street trees, parks and community gardens. “Most of the children were doing well in their development, in ter

37、ms of language skills, cognitive (认知的) capacity, socialization and other outcomes,” says Ingrid Jarvis, a PhD candidate in the department of forest and conservation sciences at UBC“But whats interesting is that those children living in a residential location with more vegetation and richer natural e

38、nvironments showed better overall development than their peers with less green space.”According to the researchers, the reason for this is partly green spaces ability to reduce the harmful effects of air pollution and noise-environmental challenges that have been shown to adversely (不利地)affect child

39、rens health and development through increased stress, sleep disturbances and central nervous system damage. “Few studies have investigated this pathway linking green space and developmental outcomes among children,” adds Jarvis.The researchers assessed early childhood development using the Early Dev

40、elopment Instrument (EDI), a survey completed by kindergarten teachers for each child. The tool measures a childs ability to meet age-appropriate developmental expectations.“More research is needed, but our findings suggest that urban planning efforts to increase green space in residential neighbour
