Unit 4Global warming【导语】全球气温变暖给南极的企鹅带来了怎样的影响,你知道吗?为了爱护他们,我们应当怎么做?Antarctica, the coldest place on Earth, is too cold for most humans.It's a different story for penguins,though.Several types of penguins make their home in Antarctica.The birds walk with short steps all over the icy continent.However,they don't all have “happy feet”.Some of Antarctica's penguins are endangered.The animals, hunt for food in waters off Antarctica's coasts.They use floating sea ice as a place to rest while they search.In recent years, global warming, the slow rise of Earth's temperature, has been causing the ice to melt.“Global warming is reducing the amount of food for penguins so that they can't find enough to eat, ”scientist Shaye Wolf said.Turning up the heatHumans may be directly responsible for the continent's temperature changes, according to a new study in the journal Nature Geoscience.Temperatures in Antarctica usually do not go above freezing, or 32 degrees Fahrenheit.But lately the weather has been heating up.People add to global warming when they drive cars or use electricity.That burns fossil fuels, such as coal,oil,and natural gas.The burning of fossil fuels gives off gases that warm Earth.The harmful gases stay in the atmosphere above Antarctica, researchers say.They found that the west side of the continent is especially affected by global warming.Scientists are concerned about the possibility that Antarctica's ice may melt more over time.The icy continent is about 5 million square miles.It is covered by glaciers and an ice cap (冰冠) about 7,100 feet thick.If the ice melts, that could cause sea levels to rise around the world.Higher sea levels could lead to dangerous flooding in some countries.Cool fix for AntarcticaExperts are hopeful that conditions in Antarctica can be improved.They say people can reduce global warming by using cars and electricity less often.Even kids can help.Wolf suggests,“Talk to your friends and family about global warming, how it is harming penguins, and how important it is to stop global warming today.”【词海拾贝】1.Antarctica n.南极洲2.penguin n.企鹅3.fossil n.化石;生物4.glacier n.冰河;冰川【问题思考】1.Why can't penguins find enough food to eat?_______________________________________________________答案:Because global warming is reducing the amount of food for them.2.Who may be directly responsible for global warming?_______________________________________________________答案:Humans.Ⅰ.将单词与其正确释义连线1.consume A.图表;曲线图2.graph B.现象3.phenomenon C.燃料4.fuel D.平均的5.trend E.趋势;倾向6.mild F.温存的;温存的7.consequence G.环境;状况8.circumstance H.贡献9.average I.消费;消耗10.contribution J.结果答案:1-I2-A3-B4-C5-E6-F7-J8-G9-D10-HⅡ.依据所给汉语提示写出单词1.____________ n.洪水;水灾2.____________ v t.反对;抵制3.____________ adj.平稳的;持续的4.____________ adj.分布广的;普遍的5.____________ v t.拥护;提倡,主见6.____________ n.污染;弄脏答案:1.flood 2.oppose 3.steady 4.widespread 5.advocate 6.pollutionⅢ.依据英语释义写出单词1.________:a quick look2.________:an amount or a number of sth3.________:to pay money regularly to support a charity4.________:to express something in speech or writing,especially in a definite or formal way5.________:happening or chosen without any definite plan,aim or pattern6.________:to take a particular direction7.________:a sudden event resulting in great loss andmisfortune8.________:the limits between which sth varies;a set ofproducts of a particular type答案:1.glance 2.quantity 3.subscribe 4.state5.random 6.tend7.catastrophe8.rangeⅣ.选用短语的适当形式完成句子keep on;be opposed to;come about;result in;subscribe to;go up;quantities of;even if1.There are large _______________________________ rain in this area.答案:quantities of2.Do you know how global warming ____________________?答案:comes about3.I have never ________________ the view that schooldays are the happiest days of your life.答案:subscribed to4.If you want to make the kite __________________,pull the string hard,and then release it slowly.答案:go up5.His careless speech ____________________________ much argument.答案:resulted in6.We ___________________ the practice of power politics between nations.答案:are opposed toⅤ.领悟句子所用的句型并译成汉语1.That probably does not seem much to you or me,but it is a rapid increase when_compared_to other natural changes.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________答案:这个数值对你我来说可能是无所谓的,但是跟其他自然变化相比较而言,这却是一种快速的增长。

Because of the way light reflects off the organisms, these phytoplankton create colourful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean colour varies from green to blue, depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton. Climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas, while reducing it in other spots, leading to changes in the ocean’s appearance.Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface, where they pull carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die, they bury carbon in the deep ocean, an important process that helps to regulate the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the ocean’s warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth, since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow, but also nutrients.Stephanie Dutkiewicz, a scientist in MIT’s Center for Global Change Science, built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3Ⅰ, it found that multiple changes to the colour of the oceans would occur. The model projects that currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters, such as those of the Arctic, a warming will make conditions riper for phytoplankton, and these areas will turn greener. “Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changing.” she said, “but the type of phytoplankton is changing.”【语篇解读】本文为说明文。

German company, the spray—on liquid glass might become one of the most useful inventions in the field of nanotechnology (纳米科技)、 The product was tested at the Saarbrücken Institute for New Materials、It is worth mentioning that the invention is transparent and non—poisonous、 The liquid glass can protect any type of surface from damages caused by water, UV radiation, dirt, heat and bacterial (细菌) infections、Besides, it is flexible and breathable, which means that the liquid glass can be applied to plants and seeds as well、 Researchers found that the spray greatly increases the resistance of plants to bacteria-caused diseases、 The trials also showed that the sprayed seeds grew faster、Depending on the type of surface that is to be covered, researchers can add water or ethanol to the spray、 Scientists say that their latest invention has a long—lasting anti—bacterial effect、 The spray produces a coating that is just 100 nm thick、 Trials by food processing plants in Germany have concluded that foods covered with the glass can store longer than those stored in normal c ondition、According to Neil McClelland, UK project manager with Nanopool, due to its capabilities, the spray-on liquid glass can become one of the most useful inventions around the world,ending up being used by a lot of industries that will cover their products、 At present, the invention is being used by a train company and a hotel chain in the UK, as well as a hamburger chain in Germany that are carrying out tests of the liquid glass for various uses、The spray-on liquid glass was als o tested in a Lancashire hospital, where it showed“very promising”results, being used to cover medical equipment and bandages、 The invention couldbe also used on clothing, because it cannot be seen by the naked eye, thus clothes could become stain resistant、 Due to its unique characteristics, the liquid glass can be used to cover bathrooms,sinks and many other surfaces in the home、According to the researchers, the spray-on glass can last for a year、 It is expected to hit the DIY stores across Britain at a price of 5 pounds、1、 Which of the following about the liquidglass is NOT true?A、 We can still see an object

理解诱思 1.What is the main idea of the text? 答案:The Arctic may be essentially ice-free during summer within
15 years because of global warming. 2.When will the first“ice-free” Arctic summer occur according to
As the climate changes,the Arctic is warming more than twice as fast as the rest of the planet. Arctic air temperatures were about 3.4 degrees above average in 2019,and were the secondwarmest since records began in 1900. Scientists also said the results of the study indicate that there is room for improvement in sea-ice models—and that the ice may disappear even more quickly than current models suggest. “Climate models may be collectively underestimating the rate of change,” the authors write in the study.

AThe number of buses, taxis and other vehicles on Kenya’s roads is growing every day. Now, the country’s first electric-powered motorbikes are coming into the market. The bike is designed to cut down on pollution and aimed at low-income communities. Most motorbikes used in Kenya depend on gasoline as fuel, but not this new motorbike.Three university students developed the new ecotype bike. It catches the sun’s energy, stores it in batteries and uses it to charge the electric motor. Robert Achoge is one of the student inventors. “Our hope is that by th e fifth year, we will be able to cover the whole of Kenya with the electric motorcycle so as to conserve the environment and provide affordable transport.”The students have set up a charging station for the motorbikes in Nairobi. Riders can plug the bikes into any electrical outlet. The small battery can run for 70 kilometres when fully charged. Once the power is used up, the motorbike has to return to the station while another charged battery is connected to the bike. The US African Development Foundation (USADF) is providing finance for two solar-powered charging stations in the Kenyan port of Kisumu.Each ecotype bike costs about $700. One taxi operator says the new motorbike costs less to operate than that running on traditional gasoline. “When it comes to buying gasoline, there’s no need. It’s basically good for various things. As long as you won’t take quite a heavy load(装载量), you can go with it anywhere. Otherwise, it may break down halfway. But now people still have a preference to the gas-powered bi kes.”A Nairobi dealership is selling the ecotype bikes. Businessman Kennedy Kusimba hopes they will become popular. We also know they are more reliable compared to the gas-powered bikes.1.What do we know about the ecotype bike?A.It was developed by the USADF.B.Its energy comes from the sunlight.C.It can charge itself while running.D.It does more harm to the environment.2.What do people think of the ecotype bike?A.It’s better not to use it to carry too much.B.It is a good choice for the long-distance journey.C.It will take the place of gas-powered bikes soon.D.It is much more expensive than a traditional motorbike.3.Where does the text probably come from?A.A research plan.B.An advertisement.C.A government report.D.A science magazine.BSeveral years ago, the mayor of Chicago, Illinois, visited Germany, a leader in green roof design. Former Mayor Richard Daley later decided to have vegetation planted on Chicago City Hall. Today, the tops of many other buildings also look like parks. In Canada, the Coast Plaza Hotel in Vancouver has a forest on its roof. New York City has an unusual demonstration farm for hydroponics(水培).The farm is on a boat called the Science Barge. Rainwater and purified river water are used to grow lettuces, tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. The farm shows the possibilities for designing rooftop systems.Green roofs are designed to save energy and capture rainwater. Rooftops covered with plants help keep buildings cool. They can extend the life of a roof. And they can reduce water running off into streets and storming water systems.Experts say green roofs usually do not get much above twenty-seven degrees Celsius. So temperatures might not be a problem for growing. But rooftop gardeners have to be careful not to put too much weight on the roof. This is true whether plants are grown in soil or water.Earlier in 2008, researchers in Texas reported that green roofs can reduce a building’s air conditioning costs by about one fifth compared to blacktop roofs. But they also reported that not all green roofs perform equally well. They found that designs differ in their ability to keep buildings cool and to capture rainwater. The researchers put experimental roofs on top of metal insulated boxes, to recreate green roof conditions. The study compared products from six companies to help businesses understand how to improve their designs. Each rooftop had sixteen different kinds of plants native to Texas. The researchers said the presence of native plants likely helped all the green roofs capture water better compared to sedums. Sedums are plants that need little water and often are used on green roofs. The native plants could take in more water and release more of it to the atmosphere.4.The author writes Paragraph 1 to .A. tell us what is the green roof designB. tell us Germany is the country that leads or guides the green roof designC. introduce some famous hotels in the worldD. lead to the topic of the passage5.The underlined word “storming” in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by “”.A. attackingB.controllingC.attractingD.managing6.According to the passage, which conclusion is WRONG?A. Sometimes green roofs may break down the house.B. Not all the green roofs can reduce the building’s air conditioning costs equally.C. Different designs of green roofs have different effects on buildings.D. Sedums are a kind of plants native to Texas.CThe Antarctic’s ice-white environment is going green and facing other unexpected threats. Scientists say that as temperatures go up in the polar region, invading (入侵) plants and insects, including the flies, cause a major threat.More and more of these invaders, in the form of larvae (幼虫) or seeds, are surviving in coastal areas around the South Pole, where the temperature has risen by more than 3℃over the past three decades. Glaciers have retreated, exposing more land which has been occupied by mosses that have been found to be growing more quickly and thickly than ever before—providing potential green homes for invaders.“The common house flies are a perfect example of the problem the Antarctic now faces from invading species,” said Dominic Hodgson of the British Antarctic Survey. “It comes in on ships, where it exists in kitchens and then at bases on the continent. It now has an increasing chance of surviving in the Antarctic as it warms up, and that is a worry. Insects like the house flies carry bacteria that could have a deadly effect on native life forms.”The Antarctic has several native species of insects. Together with its native mosses, these are now coming under the increased threat from three major sources: visiting scientists, increasing numbers of tourists and global warming. However, it is global warming that is the main driver of the greening of the Antarctic.In 2015, more than 38,000 tourists visited the Antarctic. “These tourists are often very careful about not leaving waste or having mud. But they could carry seeds or larvae on their boots when they set foot on the Antarctic,” said Hodgson.More and more invasive insects and plants have been found on the Antarctic and have required removal. “The insects and plants that are native to the Antarctic have survived there for thousands of years,” said Hodgson. “We have got to act now if we want to save the environment.”7.What does the underlined word “mosses” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. A kind of plants.B. House flies.C. Coastal areas.D. A kind of animals.8.What is the main cause of the Antarctic going green?A. Scientists’ coming.B. Global warming.C. A growing number of visitors.D. The rapid spread of native planting.9.What do we know about the house flies in the Antarctic?A. They are native to the Antarctic.B. They will disappear due to the cold climate.C. They seriously affected the Antarctic native species.D. They directly fly to the Antarctic from nearby islands.10.What’s the best title for the text?A. The Antarctic is faced with various threatsB. The Antarctic is becoming green and energeticC. More and more scientists get to explore the AntarcticD. Global warming has caused the temperature in the Antarctic to rise up第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

To my amazement, I discovered that not only had I been paid, a company I’d never worked for had also paid me! I knew I’d have been beside myself if my own salary was not in my account, so I tried to get the money back to the right person. It is easier said than done.The bank couldn’t help as it wasn’t a bank problem. The human-resource department as the company that paid me was unable to help as I didn’t have enough details. I rang the bank again. Thankfully I had sympathetic call operator who gave me a name, so I again rang the company “Daniel” worked for.I expected the bank would contact me to arrange to take the money from my account and repay Daniel. I heard nothing for a month and the money remained in my account when Daniel called, explaining he’d tried to get back his money but hadbeen unsuccessful as neither the bank nor his company felt it was their error. He had rung to ask if I could speak to the bank, but after chatting for a few minutes we realized we could probably fix this problem ourselves.We decided I would take the money from my account and he would pick it up from me. Due to my busy job I was unable to meet Daniel personally but he left me a lovely bottle of wine in exchange for what was rightfully his. I never had any intention of keeping Daniel’s pay, but red tape(繁琐手续)made it difficult to do the right thing. It all came down to two people being able to do what a huge bank and a large company couldn’t do — admit a mistake has occurred and fix it.1.What was the attitude of the author towards the extra money in his bank account?A. He didn’t know what to do with it.B. He felt lucky to get it.C. He thought of keeping it for himself.D. He wanted to return it to the right place.2.The underlined phrase “beside myself” in paragraph I probably means ________.A. very fortunateB. very angryC. really thankfulD. at ease3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Daniel had been repaid when he called the author.B. The author was to blame as he didn’t have enough details.C. Neither the bank nor the company admitted their fault.D. Daniel had the same name as the author’s.4.How was the problem solved in the end?A. The author and Daniel solved the problem themselves.B. It cost Daniel a lovely bottle of wine to get back his money.C. The author gave the money back to the company.D. The call operator offered to solve their problem.5.From the passage we can infer that ________.A. the bank could solve the problem soon and easily with the red tapeB. the company gave the wrong account to the bankC. Dani el didn’t know the error before he contacted the authorD. some large organizations usually have troublesome official rules五.根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项What makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? 1___.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough.

If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.4__.

Parents should also be careful with what they say to young childrenB. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligentC. It needs exerciseD.
