21、The world is getting greener, according to a new study published in Nature this week.
Chi Chen, lead author of the study, and his colleagues have been mining data collected by an orbiting NASA camera that monitors green vegetation on Earth’s surface, day by day. Even more interesting: They are able to show the exact causes of increasing or decreasing leaf cover in particular areas.
In some cold places, increase in leaf cover apparently resulted from global warming. Since the climate is becoming more and more temperate and the growing season is getting longer and longer, the plants are growing bigger and leafier there.
“One large area of Brazil lost vegetation. I personally checked the data, and that’s because of lack of rain,” Chen said.
The most striking changes, though, were the result of human decisions in China and India. Both countries have been getting a lot greener.
The greening of India, Chen says, comes from a huge expansion of irrigated agriculture. “Instead of having just crops when it’s raining, they also have a whole six months of cropping and greenness when it’s not raining,” he says. “This version of greening isn’t really so great for the environment, though. The irrigation drains groundwater, vegetation is wiped away at harvest time and the extra chemicals farmers use produce greenhouse gases.”
In China, though, about half of the new leaf cover that Chen detected appears to be the result of a massive reforestation effort. It’s a government-supported attempt to prevent disastrous dust storms that resulted from earlier deforestation. “They are really doing a good job,” Chen says. “They have a large and comprehensive tree planting program. Those trees will stay in place, capturing (捕捉) dust and also CO2, the greenhouse gas. They’ll store it in wood, roots and soil, doing their part to slow global warming.”
【1】Which of the following best explains the underlined word “temperate” in paragraph 3?
A．Warm.
B．Wet.
C．Cold
D．Dry.
【2】What has led to the decrease of leaf cover in the Brazilian area?
A．Tree cutting.
B．Dry weather.
C．Seasonal harvest.
D．Desertification.
【3】How does Chi Chen probably feel about the greening in India?
A．Excited.
B．Puzzled.
C．Worried.
D．Annoyed.
【4】What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A．The benefits of tree planting.
B．The harm of global warming.
C．The costs of greening in China.
D．The cause of greening in China.
22、Susan Brownell Anthony was a lady ahead of her time. She fought for women’s rights long before it became a popular issue.

24、 Yesterday, a salesman called me by phone, on behalf of a telecom company, to sell his phone plans. I was at work and I usually didn't like telemarketing (电话销售), so I excused myself that I couldn't talk yet and said he could call me back one hour later, at 6:00 pm.
That's what he did. So we talked for 15 minutes. He explained to me his different phone plans, which he stated to be better than my current one. While listening to him, sometimes I was lost in my thoughts and I gave several “hmm hmm” as a sign of agreement to convince him that I was still there. Sometimes, I felt a bit impatient, especially as he had difficulty in correctly talking in French. But I stayed calm and polite until the end of the discussion.
At the end of the conversation, he revealed (袒露) the following to me:“Thank you, Linda. You are the first person in a long time with whom I had an enjoyable conversation. Usually, people shout at us, speak to us rudely, and treat us as thieves. Today, since 10:00 am, I hadn't had a conversation without an offense. I know you had a long day at work and you could have relaxed in front of your TV. Instead, you listened carefully to me. I sincerely thank you. I wanted to tell it to you.”
I thanked him for this revelation. I realized how much he could have been the subject of verbal violence, all through his working days. Unfortunately, the telephone enables the customers to have such aggressive behavior. Indeed, physical barriers do not exist in this situation and a kind of dehumanization (非人性化) seems to happen. I am also conscious that those people getting impatient could have been me. Yet, he was only doing his job and he shouldn't have suffered from the violence.
【1】Why did the author let the salesman call back later?
A．She meant to refuse him at once.
B．She showed interest in his phone plans.
C．She hoped for more about telemarketing.
D．She wanted to use the way to discourage him.
【2】How can we describe the author during the 15-minute talk?
A．Patient.
B．Careful. .
C．Kind of absent-minded.
D．Obviously impolite.
【3】What did the salesman intend to express in Paragraph 3?
A．His deep apology.
B．His true appreciation.
C．His anger at misunderstanding.
D．His sufferings in telemarketing.
【4】What can we learn from Paragraph 4?
A．People say unkind words to him.
B．There are physical barriers.
C．Salesmen's impatience.
D．Customers' Humanization.
