The sun was getting hotter. Big Sheep and Small Sheep were tired，hungry and thirsty. But they continued walking an

He gambolled over to the tree. It was a patch of green grass.“BAA， BAA！” he shouted to Small Sheep to come over. Both Big Sheep
13、and Small Sheep were very excited. But the small patch of grass was a very small patch. It was just enough for one sheep.

18、eria warm the climate, scientists have discovered that cooling may occur in areas where burnt trees allow more snow to mirror more sunlight into space.This finding suggests that taking steps to prevent northern forest to limit the release of greenhouse gases may warm the climate in northern regions.
19、 Usually large fires destroyed forests in these areas over the past decade. Scientists predict that with climate warming, fires may occur more frequently over next several centuries as result of a longer fire season. Sunlight taken in by the earth tends to cause warming, while heat mirrored back int
20、o space tends to cause cooling.This is the first study to analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climate. Earlier studies by other scientists have suggested that fire in northern regions speed up climate warming because greenhouse gases from burning trees and plants are released into th
21、e atmosphere and thus trap heat.Scientists found that right after the fire, large amounts of greenhouse gases entered the atmosphere and caused warming. Ozone（臭氧）levels increased, and ash from the fire fell on far-off sea ice, darkening the surface and causing more radiation from the sun to be taken
22、 in. The following spring, however, the land within the area of the fire was brighter than before the fire, because fewer trees covered the ground. Snow on the ground mirrored more sunlight back into space, leading to cooling.“We need to find out all possible ways to reduce the growth of greenhouse
23、gases in the atmosphere.” Scientists tracked the change in amount of radiation entering and leaving the climate system as a result of the fire, and found a measurement closely related to the global air temperature. Typically, fire in northern regions occurs in the same area every 80 to 150 years. Sc
24、ientists, however, found that when fire occurs more frequently, more radiation is lost from the earth and cooling results. Specifically, they determined when fire returns 20 years earlier than predicated, 0.5 watts per square meter of area burned are soaked up by the earth from greenhouse gases, but
25、 0.9 watts per square meter will be sent back into space. The net effect is cooling. Watts are used to measure the rate at which energy is gained or lost from the earth.26. According to the new findings, taking steps to prevent northern forest fires may _ .A. result in a warming climateB. cause the
26、forest fires to occur more frequentlyC. lead to a longer fire seasonD. protect the forests and the environment there27. The following are all the immediate effects after a forest fire EXCEPT _.A. large amounts of greenhouse gases enter the atmosphereB. the levels of ozone which is a type of oxygen i

30、elease more energyCSaturday, October 7th, was a marathon of sad tasks for Anna Politkovskaya. Two weeks earlier, her father, a retired official in the department of foreign affairs, had died of a heart attack as he emerged from the Moscow Metro while on his way to visit Politkovskayas mother, Raisa
31、Mazepa, in the hospital. She had just been diagnosed(诊断) with cancer and was too weak even to attend her husbands funeral. “Your father will forgive me, because he knows that I have always loved him,” she told Anna and her sister, Elena Kudimova, the day he was buried. A week later, she had an opera
32、tion and since then Anna and Elena had been taking turns helping her deal with her grief.Politkovskaya was supposed to spend the day at the hospital, but her twenty-six-year-old daughter, who was pregnant, had just moved into Politkovskayas apartment, on Lesnaya Street, while her own place was being
33、 prepared for the baby. “Anna had so much on her mind,” Elena Kudimova told me when we met in London, before Christmas. “And she was trying to finish her article.” Politkovskaya was a special reporter for the small newspaper Novaya Gazeta, and, like most of her work, the piece focused on the terror
34、that can be seen all over the southern republic of Chechnya. This time, she had been trying to report repeated cruel acts done by people faithful to the Prime Minister, Ramzan Kadyrov, who are in favour of Russia. In the past seven years, Politkovskaya had written dozens of accounts of life during w
35、artime; many had been collected in her book “A Small Corner of Hell: reports from Chechnya.” Politkovskaya was far more likely to spend time in a hospital than on a battlefield, and her writing bore frequent witness to robbery, and the uncontrolled cruelty of life in a place that few other Russiansa

Curious B. easy-going C. careless D. responsible第三部分：完形填空（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）There is no doubt that the earth is becoming warmer and that it is human activity that has caused this global warming rather than a random but natural phenomenon. All scientists subscribe
39、36 the view that the increase in the earths 37 is due to the 38 of fossil fuels like coal, natural gas and oil to produce energy. Some byproducts of this process are called greenhouse 39, the most important one of 40 is carbon dioxide. Dr Janice Foster explains: There is a natural phenomenon that sc
40、ientists call the greenhouse effect. This is when small amounts of gases in the atmosphere, like carbon dioxide, methane and water vapour, trap heat from the sun and 41 warm the earth. 42 the greenhouse effect, the earth would be about thirty-three degrees Celsius 43 than it is. So, we need those ga
41、ses. The problem begins when we add huge quantities of 44 carbon dioxide into the 45. It means that more heat energy tends to be 46 in the atmosphere causing the global temperature to go up. We know that the levels of carbon dioxide have 47 greatly over the last 100 to 150 years. It was a scientist
42、called Charles Keeling, 48 made accurate measurements of the amount of 49 in the atmosphere from 1957 to 1997. He found that between these years the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere went up from around 315 parts to around 370 parts per million All scientists 50 this data. They also agree that it is
43、the burning of more and more fossil fuels 51 has 52 this increase in carbon dioxide. So how 53 will the temperature increase go? Dr Janice Foster says that 54 the next 100 years the amount of warming could be as low as 1 to 1.5 degrees Celsius, but it could be as high as 5 55.36. A. in B. to C. for

The lava that flows slowly like a wave down the mountain causes far more damage because it buries 59 in its path under the molten rock. 60 ,

57、and more forests have been cut down. Thirdly, the air is being polluted and the environment is being damaged.In my opinion, to stop Earth from becoming warmer and warmer, we must firstly try our best to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Secondly, we should plant more grass and trees and take effective measures to protect the environment. Lastly, we should not use disposable products.Lets make a great effort together to stop global warming and make Earth a better place to live in.版权所有：高考资源网()
