Unit 4 Astronomythe science of the starsⅠ.阅读理解Environmentalists said our planet was doomed to die. Now one man says they are wrong.“Everyone knows the planet is in bad shape,” thundered a magazine article last year. Species are being driven to die out at record rates, and the rivers are so poisonous that fish are floating on the surface, dead.But there’s a growing belief that what everyone takes for granted is wrong: things are actually getting better. A new book is about to overturn our most basic assumptions about the world’s environment. Rivers, seas, rain and the atmosphere are all getting cleaner. The total amount of forests in the world is not declining. The Skeptical Environmentalist by Bjorn Lomborg, professor of statistics at the University of Aarhus in Denmark, is an attack on the misleading claims of environmental groups, and the “bad news” culture that makes people believe everything is getting worse.Now the attacks are increasingly coining from left-wing environmentalists such as Lomborg, a former member of Greenpeace. The accusation is that, although the environment is improving, green groups——with profits of hundreds of millions of pounds a year——are using scare tactics(谋略) to gain donations. Lomborg’s book doesn’t deny global warming——probably the biggest environmental threat——but destroys almost every other environmental claim with many official statistics.The Worldwatch Institute claims that “deforestation has been accelerating over the last 30 years”. But Lomborg says that is si mply rubbish. Since the dawn of agriculture the world has lost about 20 percent of its forest cover, but in recent decades the forest area’s depleting has come to a stop. According to UN figures, the area of forests has remained almost stead y, at about 30 percent of total land area, since the 1940s. Forests in countries such as the US, the UK and Canada have actually been expanding over the past 40 years. Despite all the warnings the Amazon rainforest has only shrunk（缩小）by about 15 percent.Nor are all our species dying out. Some campaigners claim that 50 percent of all species will have died out within 50 years. But other studies show only 0.08 percent of species are dying out each year. Conservation efforts have been successful. Whales are no longer threatened and the bald eagle is off the endangered list.Environmental groups claim that many of the improvements are the results of the success of their campaigns. Stephen Tindale, director of Greenpeace UK, said, “There are important examples, such as acid rain and ozone, where things aren’t as bad as predicted, and that’s because behavior has changed.”1.In his book, The Skeptical Environmentalist, what is Lomborg’s main argument? A．Our planet is in bad shape.B．The world’s environment is improving.C．The total amount of forests in the world is not declining.D．Conservation efforts have been successful.2.What is Lomborg’s main accusation of environmentalists?A．They scared people into making donations.B．They overturned our basic assumptions about the world’s environment. C．They changed their behavior toward the environment.D．They only told people bad news about the environment.3.The underlined word “depleting” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to “_____”.A．Reducing B．limitingC．Expanding D．accelerating4.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A．The total area of forests in the world has increased significantly.B．The effects of global warming are not as bad as first expected.C．It appears that the bald eagle will now survive.D．In the last 50 years the number of whales has increased.Putting together lunches that your children will enjoy can seem like a difficult task, as you struggle to meet the tastes of your kids with all of the food in the world. There are some tips for you to complete this and give your kids a healthy treat at the same time.5 Have your kids select their own lunchboxes or lunch bags. This will let them express their personal style and will allow them to make a choice. They can give the presentation of their lunch a personal touch that will make it more attractive. Most older kids prefer plain brown bags.6Buy a frozen ice pack or freeze the juice boxes you plan to include. 7 In this way, he or she doesn’t end up with soggy sandwiches and other lunch problems. Containers are likely to “sweat”a little when they thaw, so wrap them up well to avoid any sogginess soaking through.Try to include a good combination of your child’s favorite snacks and healthy choices. If you include a bland sandwich and a pile of carrot sticks, your child may end up putting the lunch on the trading block. But if you pack lunches with delicious treats and healthy choices, kids are more apt to eat everything in the bag and look forward to lunch the next day.8 Packing school lunches is often a task that moms and dads may fear, but it doesn’t have to end up that way. 9A.Like all things in life, packing school lunches is really all about balance.B.However, younger kids will jump at the chance to pick a fun lunch bag.C.One of the first things you need to do is to make sure that your kids have the right containers for lunch.D.You can consult it with your children ahead of time.E.You can pack a school lunch that is both exciting and healthy, just by being a little creative.F.The frozen juice will look inviting and make your child have a good appetite.G.This will help refrigerate everything in your child’s lunch.Ⅱ.完形填空One day I pulled up to my apartment building and noticed there was a father and daughter 1 some things from a moving truck. Normally I’m shy away from contact with 2 . That particular day， though， something was in me； I can’t explain 3 ， but I felt like I should just help these people， even 4 something as seemingly unimportant as unloading a truck. So I 5 and introduced myself，welcomed them to the town， and asked them to give me a(n) 6 to put some proper shoes on. After I had flip-flops(夹趾拖鞋) on， I went over and helped them move all of their 7 into the apartment.After we finished， we talked some and I got to know my new 8 . It might seem unimportant， but it seems like people are less 9 and friendly to their neighbors these days；I wanted to 10 that， at least in my small 11 block. So we did talk，and they’re from Florida， just like me.At that 12 time in my life，I was going through a really difficult 13 with my girlfriend of 7 years. I didn’t feel like helping anyone or doing anything 14 ，but I figured why not？And I’m glad I did. Also， as 15 would have it， their daughter is my age(college student) and we each had a mutual(相互的) 16 in one another. This developed into a friendship， and in the coming months， probably more.The 17 wa s the act itself， though. I got to know my new neighbors and made some new friends in the 18 .
