24、Scientists have long believed one way to stop the Earth’s air from warming is by planting more trees. The idea is that more trees will take in or absorb(吸收) some of the CO2 in the air. CO2 is a gas released by cars, factories and other human activities. The gas traps heat in the Earth’s air, which warms the planet. However, two new studies have found that trees may not be as helpful in reducing CO2 as thought.
The first study was done at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. Researchers pumped(打气) extra CO2 into a test area where green trees were growing. The trees grew thirty-four percent faster during the first three years. However, in time, the trees slowed to about their normal growth rate. The scientists say this is because trees need other nutrients(营养素), such as nitrogen(氮).
In the second study, researchers from Duke and Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine examined the soil(泥土) around trees. They discovered that as the leaves broke down into the soil, all the carbon was not trapped in the soil. Much of it was let into the air as CO2.
The findings of the two studies were published last month in Nature magazine. They suggest there is limited(有限的) value in planting trees to reduce the CO2 pollution in the air.
Forest planting has been a part of negotiations(谈判) on a world agreement to reduce greenhouse gases that scientists believe cause global warming. The United States, Canada, Japan and some other countries have supported the idea. But this new research suggests the idea is not as effective as environmental activists(积极分子) had thought. Scientist Ram Oren of Duke University led the study on tree growth. He says that earlier estimates(估计) on the ability of forests to absorb CO2 were overly hopeful.
Some other scientists say the research provides some of the first evidence on how trees react(反应) to CO2. Some other scientists say the research disputes(质疑) a belief among some coal and power companies. The companies say that more CO2 in the air will not create harmful global warming. Instead, they say it will increase forests and other plants.
【1】Why did the researchers put trees in extra CO2 in the first study?
A. To learn whether trees can still absorb CO2 under extreme conditions.
B. To get more oxygen from these trees.
C. To know how much CO2 that trees can absorb.
D. To see the effect of CO2 on the growth rate of these trees.
【2】What happened to the leaves falling from the trees in the second study?
A. They broke down and the main parts turned into oxygen.
B. They broke down and the carbon had mainly turned into CO2.
C. They broke down and the carbon was mainly absorbed in the soil.
D. They absorbed more CO2.
【3】Scientist Ram Oren thinks that common beliefs of the tree’s ability to absorb CO2 are __________.
A. just right B. not acceptable
C. a bit too cheerful D. too dangerous

26、If you won a lottery and had lots of money, what would you do? Most people start by buying themselves things, such as a new car or a bigger TV.
Many people who win lots of money may suddenly find that they have a lot of socalled(所谓的)friends. The new friends they make may follow them for their money but they may also leave them when all the money is spent. Besides that, they can’t decide what to do with the money, so they try to think what they want. In the end, most people usually decide to save the money.
There are some lottery winners who decide to quit(辞职)their jobs, because they think they have enough money and don’t need to work any longer. Some big lottery winners make even bigger changes—they end their marriages. They think that winning a lot of money has suddenly made them more intelligent and more attractive(有吸引力的).So they feel that they have to be with a younger or more attractive man or woman.
They don’t know their new money is just a bit of luck. It can’t change everything.
Next time when you buy a lottery ticket, think about what you would like to do and what you wouldn’t like to do with the money if you won.

27、Maybe it is true that we do not know what we have got until we lose it, but it is also true that we do not know what we have been missing until it arrives. Giving someone all your love never means that they will love you back. Do not expect love in return; but if it does not, be glad it grows in yours.
It takes an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Do not depend on one's appearance, it may not be true. Do not depend on wealth, even that disappears slowly. Depend on someone who makes you smile, because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.
There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug(拥抱) them.
Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.
May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials(尝试) to make you strong, enough sadness to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy.
Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person, too.
The happiest people do not necessarily give the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Happiness waits for those who cry, those who have been hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tired, for only they can enjoy the importance of people who have touched their lives.
The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past. You cannot go on well in life until you let your past failures and heartaches go off.
When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.
【1】If you put yourself in another's position, ___________.
A. you should depend on wealth
B. you shouldn't do those things that will hurt you and other people
C. you will do what you want to do however dangerous it is to people
D. you should depend on other people.
【2】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. If you give someone your love, you are sure that she will give her love to you in return.
B. We often don’t know what we have lost until it happens.
C. If someone accepts your love and he doesn’t give you his love in return, you should be angry with him.
D. If it takes you an hour to love someone, you will easily forget her.
【3】In the last paragraph of the passage, the writer is actually telling us that a man in the world should be one who __________.
A. can accept the suggestions made by others
B. can live happily and forget the past
C. does good to the people and wins their respect
D. has made a lot of money for himself when he dies
28、
A.angrily B.afford C.thought D.encourage E.control |
Every year in November, people look for bargains (便宜货) on Black Friday, the day after the American holiday of Thanksgiving, to start shopping for Christmas. But do you know that the same day is also Buy Nothing Day?
