2．如果当选，你将为同学做什么? 答案:A Campaign Speech Ladies and Gentlemen,
Good evening! Thank you for coming to this election campaign today. With the trust and complete support of my team, I am delighted to announce that I am running for chairman of the Student Union. There are some reasons, I think, to join the activity. As a
see crop yields affected as global temperatures rise, but that adaptation can help slow the decline for some crops.
For corn, the anticipated loss is roughly 10 percent, the research shows. Farmers of these crops have already seen yield growth slow down since 1980 as temperatures have risen, though other policy and economic factors have also played a role.

farmers will use the available options for adapting. Europe has already seen a lot of warming, so we should expect to already see adaptation if farmers are quick to respond to climate signals." 1.

diligent man with pleasant personality, I have always been considered to be a good team member.

D.Pessimistic. 答案:A[解析] 根据题干中的 Moore think about the results 定位到 原文第四段。该段首句中指出，穆尔对研究结果略感惊讶，因为欧洲 还是相当凉爽的。四个选项与原文中的 surprising“令人感到意外的” 意义最为接近的是 Unexpected，故选 A。 4. What can be counted as "adaption" according to Lobell? A.Exploring new technologies. B.Grow crops in greenhouses. C.Install irrigating systems. D.Release less greenhouse gases. 答案:C[解析] 根据题干中的 be counted as "adaption" according to Lobell 定位到原文第五段。该段首句中罗贝尔说道：“在我们看 来，‘适应’就是以现有技术为基础的一系列措施，如更换作物品种， 安装灌溉设施或种植一种完全不同的但能适应较高温度的作物。”四 个选项中符合原文的只有 C 项，故选 C。 5. What does Moore suggest in the last paragraph?

Moore described the results as somewhat surprising because Europe is fairly cool. "So you might think it would benefit from moderate amounts of warming," she said. "Our next step was to actually measure the potential of European farmers to adapt to these impacts."
I believe that the sign of a really strong organization is that it can change its leadership without hindering its progress and without damaging its values. If I am elected, I believe I have the capability to lead the Union to advance in the right direction. I will cooperate well with my fellow members of the Union and take innovative measures, including forming a teacher-student-friendship association, establishing a student-information center, making the Union a true assistance to students' study and life here as well as a bridge of communication between teachers and students.

Part Ⅰ Writing 问题:1. Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a campaign speech in support of your election to the post of chairman of the Student Union. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese.
"By adaptation, we mean a range of options based on existing technologies, such as switching varieties of a crop, installing irrigation or growing a different crop, one better suited to warmer temperatures," said Lobell. "These things have been talked about for a long time, but the novelty (新奇) of this study was using past data to quantify (量化) the actual potential of adaptation to reduce climate change impacts. We find that in some cases adaptation could substantially reduce impacts, but in other cases the potential may be very limited with current technologies."
"The results clearly showed that modest amounts of climate change can have a big impact on yields of several crops in Europe," said Stanford doctoral student Frances Moore, who conducted the research with David Lobell, an associate professor of environmental Earth system science.
Moore pointed out that the biggest issues are often how quickly farmers in Europe will adapt to climate change (adaptation uncertainty) and how crop yields will respond to climate change (response uncertainty).
Thank you very much.
