New machines and new methods have helped cut down time and expense while increasing overall output. This has meant more production and a higher standard of living. For most of us in America, modern tec
10、hnology is thought of as the reason why we can have cars and television sets. However, technology has also increased the amount of food available to us, by means of modern farming machinery and animal-breeding techniques, and has extended our life span via medical technology.Will mankind continue to
11、 live longer and have a higher quality of life? In large measure the answer depends on technology and our ability to use it widely. If we keep making progress as we have over the past fifty years, the answer is definitely yes. The advancement of technology depends upon research and development, and
12、the latest statistics show that the United States is continuing to pump billions of dollars annually into such efforts. So while we are running out of some scarce resources we may well find technological substitutes for many of them through our research programs.Therefore, in the final analysis the

Countless recent reports from the worlds
18、leading scientific bodies have said the same thing. For example, a 2010 summary of climate science by the Royal Society stated that: “There is strong evidence that the warming of the Earth over the last half-century has been caused largely by human activity.”The idea that humans could change the pla
19、nets climate may be counter-intuitive(与直觉不符的), but the basic science is well understood. Each year, human activity causes billions of tons of greenhouse gases to be released(释放)into the atmosphere. As scientists have known for years, these gases hold heat that would otherwise escape to space, wrappi
20、ng the planet in an invisible blanket.Of course, the planets climate has always been changing thanks to “natural” factors(因素) such as changes in solar or volcanic(火山的)activity, or cycles relating the Earths going around the sun. According to the scientific literature, however, the warming recorded t
21、o date matches the pattern of warming we would expect from a build-up of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere not the warming we would expect from other possible causes.Even if scientists did discover another reasonable explanation for the warming observed so far, that would beg a difficult question. As
22、 Robert Henson puts it in The Rough Guide to Climate Change: “If some newly discovered factor can account for the climate change, then why arent carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)and the other greenhouse gases producing the warming that basic physics tells us they should be?”The only way to prove with 100% certai
23、nty that humans are responsible for global warming would be to run an experiment with two identical Earths one with human influence and one without. That obviously isnt possible, and so most scientists are careful not to state human influence as an absolute certainty. 72. In most scientists opinion,
24、 the global warming is mainly caused by _. A. solar activityB. volcanic activityC. the Earths going around the sunD. human activity73. The text is developed by _.

28、etting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other social skill that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware, at all times, that their feedback to youngsters can g
29、reatly affect their children. Youngsters may take their parents and coaches criticisms to heart and find a fault in themselves. Coaches and parents should also be cautious that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the
30、process of learning the sport and other life lessons. In todays youth sport setting, young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport. Following a game many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find fault with youngsters performances.Positiv
31、e support should be provided regardless of the outcome. Research indicates that positive reinforcement motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress, which can lead to burnout.71An effective way to prevent the burnout of young athlet
