    We're encouraged to be nice to other people. However, many people 1 to be nice to the environment. Nature has 2 the alarm and global warming is quite a big 3 today in the 21st century. Carbon dioxide is the largest pollutant. That 4 causes greenhouse gases to stay in the earth's atmosphere, 5 the temperature of the globe, causing abnormal weather and melting glaciers in the north and south.

    Simple things we can do every day can help 6 the earth, prevent the extinction of animals such as the polar bear, and make the earth a 7 place to live in for us and future generations to come.

I've found tons of carbon dioxide are sent out by cars every day, 8 to the climate crisis. So I decide to take 9 now to publicize the danger of carbon dioxide, or 10 do something worthwhile to help slow the rise of the weather.

    There are many ways for me to help reduce global warming. I often choose public 11, buses, for example. This can 12 money and energy. I prefer to bike or walk whenever I can. Somehow, I've 13 my body and grown muscles 14 the preference. If I have to go to a place and I can't walk, I'll share a car with others. I feel very 15 that New York city has decided to popularize hybrid (混合的) buses.

    I also try to 16 friends and family to do the same in order to reduce carbon dioxide release. If everyone does something to help, together we can make a 17.

    People who are interested can visit the 18 www.environmentaldefense.org to work with me. I'm 19 for everyone's support and let's fight together to make the earth healthy, 20 and free from pollution.

New discoveries and technological breakthroughs are made every year. Yet, as the information industry moves forward, many people in society are looking back to their roots in terms of the way they eat. A "locavore" movement has emerged in the United States. The movement supports eating foods grown locally and sustainably, rather than prepackaged foods shipped from other parts of the world.

Experts hold that eating local has many merits, and is expected to become a trend featuring sustainability. Erin Barnett is the director of Local Harvest, a company that aims to help connect people to farms in their area. By eating local, she argues, people have a better and more personal understanding of the impact their food consumption has on the rest of the world. "There is a way of connecting the point, where eating locally is an act that raises our awareness of sustainable living," Barnett says.

The United States' agricultural output is one of the highest in the world, says Timothy Beach, a professor of geography and geoscience at the University of Texas in Austin, Texas. "There's just no other place on Earth where the amount of input is so productive," Beach says of American agriculture. "Nobody can cut off the food we need."

However, the US food system is not sustainable because of its dependency on fossil (化石) fuels, says Beach. Equipment used on "extremely productive" farms is quickly consuming Earth's natural resources, particularly oil. Additionally, the production of agricultural supplements (补充剂),such as fertilizer, uses large amounts of energy.

The world has used close to half of the global oil supply, Beach says, and the second half will be consumed at an even faster rate because of the growing population and economic development. Although many businesses are experimenting with wind, solar, and biofuel, Beach says there's nothing that we see on the horizon that can replace it. "There is no way on Earth we are using fossil fuels sustainably. Then we have to reconsider the impact of eating local," he says.

The journey to discover myself,care for myself and love myself has been a long one.But,it's been a journey that has finally saved my life.

I remember throwing up for the first time when I was 8 years old.Somehow I had developed the belief that being thin was the only way to be accepted and loved.This way of thinking intensified(加剧) as I got older and bulimia(神经性贪食)became more and more deeply rooted in my life.

When I was 15 years old my family said goodbye to everything we had ever known and boarded the plane for New Zealand.I felt alone and scared in a world that was completely different to anything I had ever known.Eating helped numb(麻木)my pain and throwing up helped keep me thin.

By the time I went to university I was throwing up over 15 times a day.I was so ashamed of what I had become.

Although my bulimia had completely turned my life upside down,I knew one thing for sure that I loved my family more than anything in the world.This belief eventually made me pick up the phone and book my first appointment with a therapist(治疗专家).

The first session I had with my therapist,Amanda,was amazing.I walked out of her office feeling like I had finally done something positive for myself Amanda made me realize that I wasn't alone in my suffering and there were thousands upon thousands of girls just like me.

I met regularly with Amanda for the best part of a year,over which time I learnt how to treat myself kindly,respect myself and love myself.I said goodbye to bulimia after over a decade of suffering.

Just turn to face the direction of self﹣discovery,self﹣love and self﹣acceptance and keep walking until you get there.It will be the journey of a lifetime.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

Deforestation in tropical(热带的) regions of Asia, Africa and the Americas has reduced the cooling effects of trees. "The temperature change associated with deforestation over the 15-year study period is equal to a century of global warming, happening almost instantly, at these locations," says Luke Parsons at Duke University in North Carolina.

Now, by using data from population surveys and mapping tree cover loss over a 15-year period, Parsons and his colleagues have estimated the effect of deforestation on outdoor workers across 41 countries. He says climate change has already pushed tropical locations right to the edge of what would be considered safe for heavy outdoor labour and that deforestation causes those locations to be even more precarious.

Parsons and his colleagues used land surface temperature measurements from satellites, and collected humidity(湿度) data, to estimate how hot an average day felt to outdoor workers in regions which either lost or maintained tree cover between 2003 and 2018. "The study focuses on what you would think of as a 'feels-like' temperature. It takes into account how well you can cool yourself by sweating, which is affected by humidity, as well as the temperature," says Parsons.

The researchers then turned to population surveys to estimate the number of outdoor workers in these areas. This revealed that some 2.5 million outdoor workers in Asia lost at least half an hour of safe work per day, between 2003 and 2018, due to increased temperatures in deforested regions. Nearly 200,000 outdoor workers in the Americas and some 31,000 people in Africa lost this amount of safe work time each day. Regions that maintained forest cover generally stayed cool, and less work time was lost.

It is important to remember that, due to the scale(规模) of the study, the team didn't measure actual worker hours on the ground across the entire tropics, says Parsons. This means the assessment of lost worker hours is based on theoretical considerations rather than direct observations of behaviour.

 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

The public footpath laid barely 20 meters from where I stood, promising a walk along the river, passing fields and through woodland, well away from any road. Yet there was something in my way—the River Thames.

I checked my map to see how to reach the path, but there was no other footpath that would lead me to the island on which it sat. It was only accessible by boat—kid's dream. Similar to a talent show, some performances are educational but mostly, they just make you laugh. Talent is irrelevant, and audience engagement through call and response is essential.

Away from phones and peers back home, social norms fade and space for self-exploration forms. Shy kids come out of their shells, and cool kids let_their_guard_down. They get to open up this door to a part of themselves that they wouldn't have felt safe to reveal at school or at home.

It's been a decade since my last performance as a camp counselor, and I never thought of skits from a skill-building perspective. But I now realize this rich camp tradition left a great impression on me. Through camp skits, I developed my sense of humor, built confidence in front of a crowd, and learned how to accept others for their quirks(怪癖).

Maybe we can make our schools or communities more like summer camps by bringing the silliness of skits into our families and classrooms to reconnect with ourselves and each other. The next time you're sitting around a campfire with friends and family, give it a try. Embrace the discomfort and invite your loved ones to join in on the improvising(即兴创作). And remember: the more funny noises and childlike humor, the better.

Many years ago, I worked in a marathon(马拉松). I was required to stand by the road to give out water to the runners. I felt so excited to see all different kinds of runners who passed by and 1 took a cup of water. Some walked past, some jogged past and a few rushed past.

The next year, I signed up for the 2 and gave it a try. With 3 running practice, I just wanted to finish.

On the day of the race, it was terribly hot. Only after 2 miles, I felt sweat 4 off me and my legs swelling (肿胀). I began to5 , "Why am I doing this? What was I thinking? I must be 6 ." And at one moment, I said to myself: "I am never doing this again." For the following miles, I jogged. I walked. I jogged and walked. At times, I wonder if I could 7 .

Near the end, a 70-year-old man rushed past me, very fast, and I felt a little 8 that I was more than 50 years younger than him and I couldn't keep up with him. But then I 9 something: he was running his race and I was running mine. He had abilities, training and 10 for himself and I had mine. How often in life do we 11 ourselves with others and feel disappointed in ourselves when we really shouldn't?

We are all unique human beings with unique 12 . It's really no good focusing on others' race. I decided that I would not 13 running, and that one day I would be one of those elderly people who were still running races. As I crossed the finishing line, I was 14 of myself.

In life we all have those moments when we compare ourselves with others. It's natural but don't allow these moments to weaken you. Turn them into 15 and let them inspire you.
