Australia has promised to introduce the most comprehensive （全面
的） carbon trading program outside Europe in 2010. The gov ernment in Canberra plans to cut greenhouse gas emissions (排
放) by at least five percent by 2020, but it could make bigger r eductions if other countries agree to tougher targets.
The Australian government warns that without tough environ mental measures the country could lose key industries and jo bs. Climate Change Minister Penny Wong says the economy i s under threat and decisive action is needed.
Central to the government’s climate change plan is a carbon e missions trading program that will be introduced within two ye ars. It would involve one thousand of the nation’s biggest com panies and would cover about three-
quarters of Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions.
Many scientists believe that greenhouse gases, such as carb on dioxide and methane, contribute to global warming. Many of them are released by burning fuels such as coal and oil. Companies will be required to buy permits for each ton of car bon they emit, although big polluting exporters will receive up to 90 percent of their carbon licenses free.
Many business leaders want the government to delay the plan because of the current global financial crisis, which is slowing the Australian economy. Peter Anderson from the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry says it is irresponsible to bring in a carbon trading plan now.
Environmentalists, on the other hand, say Prime Minister Kevi n Rudd has not properly addressed the threat of climate chan ge. Activists had sought a minimum emissions cut of 25 perce nt.
Instead, the Rudd government aims to cuts carbon emissions by at least five percent of 2000 levels by 2020. That amount c ould rise to 15 percent, if future global agreements set such a target.
Ray Nias of the environmental group WWF says Australia will pay the price for low targets. “This is a deeply, deeply disappo inting target,” Nias said. “It commits Australia to long-
term climate change. It will make Australia’s ability to negotiat e (协
商) global agreements very, very difficult. It is much lower tha n even we had imagined.”
Australia has one of the highest per-
person greenhouse emissions rates in the world because of it s reliance on coal for electricity.
Some scientists warn that the vast, dry Australian continent, w hich has been suffering a series of droughts in recent years, c ould be one of the region’s hardest hit by global warming. 28.Which group supports to cut carbon emissions by at least 25%?
A. Environmentalists
B. The government
C. Business leader s
D. Scientists
29.Who most probably agrees to a higher goal of carbon emis sions?
A. Penny Wong
B. Peter Anderson
C. Kevin Rudd
D. R ay Nias
30.Many business leaders are against the Australian program because________.
A. they believe the program will only benefit the big companie s
B. they believe the program will cause the global warming
C. they don’t want to pay extra money for carbon emissions
D. they don’t think carbon emission will surely cause the glob al warming
31.The underlined sentence means_________.
A. The Australian government will be blamed for the low targe t
B. Australia will suffer a lot from climate change caused by ca rbon emissions
C. The Australian government will have to spend lots of mone y on carbon emissions
D. Many Australian companies will close down because of the low target

Any car accident is frightening, but an accident in which your vehicle is thrown into the water, with you trapped inside, is ab solutely terrifying. 36 However, most deaths result from pani c, without a plan or unde
rstanding what is happening to the car in the water. By adopti ng a brace (支
撑) position, acting decisively and getting out fast, you can sa ve yourself from a sinking vehicle.
Brace yourself for impact (撞击
力). As soon as you're aware that you're going off the road an
d into a body of water, adopt a brac
e position. The impact cou ld set of
f the airba
g system in your vehicle, so you should plac e bot
h hands on the steering wheel in the "ten and two" position. Undo your seatbelt. 37 Untie the children, starting with the o ldest first. Forget the cell phone call. Your car isn't going to wa it for you to make the call.
38 Leave the door alone at this stage and concentrate on th
e window. A car's electrical system should work for up to thre e minutes in water, so try the method o
f openin
g it electronical ly first. Many people don't think about the window as an escap e option either because of panic or misinformation about door s and sinking.
Break the window. If you aren't able to open the window, or it only opens halfway, you'll need to break it with an object or yo ur foot. It may feel counter-intuitive (有悖常理
的) to let water into the car. 39
Escape when the car has equalized. If it has reached the dra matic stage where the car cabin has been filled with water an d it has become balanced, you must move quickly and effectiv ely to ensure your survival. 40 While there is still air in the c ar, take slow, deep breaths and focus on what you're doing. A. Open the window as soon as you hit the water.
B. Surviving a sinking car is not as difficult as you think.
C. It takes 60 to 120 seconds for a car to fill up with water usu ally.
D. Such accidents are particularly dangerous to the risk of dro wning.
E. In conclusion, if you know what to do in the water, you will be safe.
F. This is the first thing to attend to, yet it often gets forgotten i n the panic.
G. But the sooner the window is open, the sooner you can es cape directly through it.
