Unit 4 Global warmingⅠ.阅读理解AWildfires and heat waves have been troubling the states of California and Arizona this year. Since 2010, about 6.4 million acres have been burned on average per year. Recent studies have stated that global warming is the cause of these wildfires and higher temperatures, and that the incidence of these natural disasters is likely to increase.As temperatures increase, wildfires become more common. As this cycle progresses, climate change and wildfires both increase frequently and seriously. Forest fires are also developing at higher frequencies as a result of global warming. Firefighters use techniques like back-burning to help prevent further spread of these fires, but these measures are not always effective.Some factors that promote wildfires, such as drought and insect outbreaks, have been linked to global warming as well. Insects that kill trees and other plants make the remains more sensitive to fires, as the plant matter dries out and can more easily be burned. Higher temperatures that result from climate change cause more water to evaporate(蒸发)from reservoirs and lakes, which can lead to drought.With global warming causing higher temperatures, the wildfire seasons of affected areas lengthen. This occurs because summer heat begins to build earlier in the year, and the cooling fall season is delayed. For forests in the southwest United States, the conclusion of snow’s melting indicates the time when fires are able to start. Climate change has caused the melting of snow to occur earlier than it did 50 years ago by about one to four weeks.The global warming trend has hit Southern California extremely hard, and the months of January through April have been hotter this year than they have been for any others in recorded history. This has also caused a drought which has been severe or worse for the entire state. Last year, drought affected only 46 percent of California.With the results from these recent studies, global warming has been linked to an environment that promotes wildfires, by creating higher temperatures and causing drought. California’s wildfire season is just starting, and the damages are likely to be worse as the season continues.1. What does the author intend to tell in the passage?A. Global warming causes high temperatures and wildfires.B. Forest fires have been bringing serious threat to the earth.C. High temperatures make water disappear at a high speed.D. California and Arizona are faced with the extreme weather.2. Why are insects connected with wildfire?A. Because tons of insects exist in the forests.B. Because drought drives insets into the forests.C. Because insects leave the trees dead and dry.D. Because the bodies of insects can burn easily.3. We can conclude from the passage that .A. it is impossible to prevent wildfire from happeningB. the southern states in the USA will see the longest summerC. it is necessary to raise awareness of fire preventionD. California has done nothing to fight wildfiresBFred and Bonnie have 21 children. First they had two of their own and they adopted 19 others from countries around the world. They adopted children from many countries, like Japan, India and Vietnam. Each time they made sure they had music, food, pictures, and books of the child's native country so the children would feel good about themselves.Fred and Bonnie had pre-school children running around the house for 26 years without a break! The washer was always going and clothes hung from one end of the room to the other. Everyone helped out with the housework. The family drank ten litres of milk a day.The couple enjoyed their children. They took care of small problems right away so they wouldn't become big problems. Fred says, "If you have trouble with one of your children, don't worry. Worry doesn't help, and in time your child will be all right."When the children were older, Bonnie began travelling to India. She opened three homes for 170 homeless children. She travels there four times a year to bring food, medicine, and used clothing to the needy children.Back home, Bonnie cooks meals for her seven children still living there. The other children keep in touch. When Tran got married,18 brothers and sisters danced at his wedding.They hope their children will find their own way to help others. They want them to be happy, healthy and independent.Fred says, "Let me light my lamp and never wonder if it will take away the darkness."4. What does the word "adopted" underlined in Paragraph 1 mean ?A. raised children with government support.B. looked after children for parents who were busy.C. provided education for children from poor families.D. brought up someone else's child as his parents.5. What did the couple do to make sure that the children felt good about themselves?A. To offer them things from their own country.B. To feed them well.C. To make sure they could play well.D. To handle small problem right away.6. What does Bonnie do after the children grow up?A. She goes abroad to help more children in need.B. She still stays at home to cook for them.C. She set up three homes in Vietnam.D. She often visits her son in India.7. Why do the couple want to live such a life?A. To get extra money from the government.B. To be allowed to build more rooms.C. To have more chances to travel abroad.D. To offer help and to show their love.8. Which of the following is the best title for the article?A. Worry doesn't help.B. A big happy family.C. How to help others.D. Family should keep in touch.Ⅱ.完形填空The back door of the ambulance(救护车)was suddenly shut and the driver ran to the front, jumped into his seat, and started the engine.

Unit 4 Global warmingACalifornia Condor’s Shocking RecoveryCalifornia condors are North America’s largest birds, with wind-length of up to 3 meters. In the 1980s, electrical lines and lead poisoning(铅中毒) nearly drove them to dying out. Now, electric shock training and medical treatment are helping to rescue these big birds.In the late 1980s, the last few condors were taken from the wild, and there are now more than 150 flying over California and nearby Arizona, Utah and Baja in Mexico. Electrical lines have been killing them off. “As they go in to rest for the night, they just don’t see the power lines,” says Bruce Rideout of San Diego Zoo. Their wings can bridge the gap between lines, resulting in electrocution(电死) if they touch two lines at once.So scientists have come up with a shocking idea. Tall poles, placed in large training areas, teach the birds to stay clear of electrical lines by giving them a painful but undeadly electric shock. Before the training was introduced, 66% of set-freed condors died of electrocution. This has now dropped to 18%.Lead poisonous has proved more difficult to deal with. When condors eat dead bodies of other animals containing lead, they absorb large quantities of lead. This affects their nervous systems and ability to produce baby birds, and can lead to kidney(肾) failures and death. So condors with high levels of lead are sent to Los Angeles Zoo, where they are treated with calcium EDTA, a chemical that removes lead from the blood over several days. This work is starting to pay off. The annual death rate for adult condors has dropped from 38% in 2000 to 5.4% in 2011.Rideout’s team thinks that the California condors’ average survival time in the wild is now just under eight year s. “Although these measures are not effective forever, they are vital for now,” he says. “They are truly good birds that are worth every effort we put into recovering them. ”1.California condors attract researchers’ interest because they ______.A. are active at nightB. had to be bred in the wildC. are found on in CaliforniaD. almost died out in the 1980s2. Researchers have found electrical lines are_________ .A. blocking condors’ journey homeB. big killers of California condorsC. rest places for condors at nightD. used to keep condors away3.According to Paragraph 5 ,lead poisoning _________ .A. makes condors too nervous to flyB. has little effect on condors’ kidneysC. can hardly be gotten rid of form condors’ bloodD. makes it different for condors to produce baby birds4.The passage shows that __________ .A. the average survival time of condors is satisfactory.B. Rideout’s research interest lies in electric engineering.C. the efforts to protect condors have brought good results.D. researchers have found the final answers to the problem.BFood festivals around the worldStilton Cheese RollingMay Day is a traditional day for celebrations, but the 2,000 English villagers of Stilton must be the only people in the world who include these rolling in their annual plans. Teams of four, dressed in a variety of strange and funny clothes , roll a complete cheese along a 50-metre course. On the way, they must not kick or throw their cheese, or go into their competitors' lane. Competition is fierce and the chief prize is a complete Stilton cheese weighing about four kilos (disappointingly, but understandably the cheeses used in the race are wooden ones). All the competitors arc served with beer or port wine, the traditional accompaniment for Stilton cheese.Fiery Foods Festival—The Hottest Festival on EarthEvery year more than 10,000 people head for the city of Albuquerque, New Mexico. They come from as far away as Australia, the Caribbean and China, but they all share a common addiction—food that is not just spicy ,but hot enough to make your mouth burn, your head spin and your eyes water. Their destination is the Fiery Eood and BBQ Festival which is held over a period of three clays every March. You might like to try a chocolate-covered habanero pepper—officially the hottest pepper in the world—or any one of the thousands of products that are on show. But one thing's for sure—if you don't like the feeling of a burning tongue, this festival isn't for you!La Tomatina—The World's Biggest Food FightOn the last Wednesday of every August, the Spanish town of Bunol hosts Ea Tomatina—the world's largest food fight. A week-long celebration leads up to an exciting tomato battle as the highlight of the week's events. The early morning sees the arrival of large trucks with tomatoes—official fight-starters get things going by casting tomatoes at the crowd.The battle lasts little more than half an hour, in which time around 50,000 kilograms of tomatoes have been thrown at anyone or anything that moves, runs, or fights back. Then everyone heads down to the river to make friends again—and for a much-needed wash!5. In the Stilton cheese rolling competition, competitors on each team must____ .A. wear various formal clothesB. roll a wooden cheese in their own laneC. kick or throw their cheeseD. use a real cheese weighing about four kilos6.Where is the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival held?A. In New Mexico.B. In the Caribbean.C. In Australia.D. In China.7.The celebration of La Tomatina lasts____________ .A. three daysB. seven daysC. less than three daysD. more than seven days8.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The chief prize for the Stilton cheese rolling competition is beer or port wine.B. More than 10,000 Chinese take pail in the Fiery Food and BBQ Festival.C.

Business people, political leaders, university professors, and especially millions of grass-roots Americans are taking part in the movement. “The understanding has increased many, many times, ”says Gaylord Nelson, the former governor from Wisconsin, who thought up the first Earth Day.According to US government reports , emissions (排放)from cars and trucks have dropped from 10. 3 million tons a year to 5. 5 tons . The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been reduced from 40 to 9 . Although serious problems still remain and need to be dealt with , the world is a safer and healthier place .A kind of “Green thinking ” has become part of practices .Great improvement has been achieved . In 1988 there were only 600 recycling programs ; today in 1995 there are about 6, 600 . Advanced lights , motors , and building designs have helped save a lot of energy and therefore prevented pollution .Twenty –five years ago , there were hardly any education programs for environment . Today , it’s hard to find a public school , university , or law s chool that does not have such a kind of program . ” Until we do that , nothing else willchange! ” say Bruce Anderson .12.

They have reduced pollution through effective measures .15.What is especially important for environmental protection according to the last paragraph ?A .EducationB. PlanningC. Green livingD. CO reduction七选五The Science of Risk-SeekingSometimes We decide that a little unnecessary danger is worth it because when we weigh the risk and the reward, the risk seems worth taking. 16 Some of us enjoy activities that would surprise and scare the rest of us. Why? Experts say it may have to do with how our brains work.The reason why any of us take any risks at all might have to do with early humans.Risk-takers were better at hunting, fighting, or exploring. 17 As the quality of risk-taking was passed from on generation to the next, humans ended up with a sense of adventure and a tolerance for risk.So why aren’t we all jumping out of airplanes then? Well, even 200,000 years ago, too much risk-taking could get one Killed. A few daring survived, though, along with a few stay-in-the-cave types. As a result, humans developed a range of character types that still exists today. So maybe you love car racing, or maybe you hate it.18No matter where you are on the risk-seeking range, scientists say that your willingness to take risks increases during your teenage years.19 To help you do that, your brain increases your hunger for new experiences. New experiences often mean taking some risks, so your brain raises your tolerance for risk as well.20 For the risk-seekers a part of the brain related to pleasure becomes active, while for the rest of us, a part of the brain related to fear becomes active.As experts continue to study the science of risk-seeking, we’ll continue to hit the mountains, the waves or the shallow end of the pool.A. It all depends on your character.B. Those are the risks you should jump to take.C. Being better at those things meant a greater chance of survival.D. Thus, these well-equipped people survived because they were the fittest.E. This is when you start to move away from your family and into the bigger world.F. However, we are not all using the same reference standard to weigh risks and rewards.G. New brain research suggests our brains work differently when we face a nervous situation.完型填空“Daily Star, sir” called Jason, carrying some newspapers under his arm.
