According to the UN Intergovernmental Panel (專家咨詢組) on Climate Change, global temperatures have risen by approximately 0.6℃ in the past century, caused mainly by emissions of greenhouse gases produced by human activities，such as the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation.Temperatures are to increase between 1.6℃ and 5.8℃ in the next century, accompanied by sea level rise and an increase in the frequency of extreme weather events.
The best available evidence suggests that climate changes since the 1970s may already be causing over 150,000 deaths annually, and that greenhouse gas emissions would increase disease burdens in the coming decades.The risks are concentrated in the poorest population, who have contributed least to the problem.
The Kyoto Protocol (京都議定書) is signed by 128 nations，and commits the participating industrialized countries to cutting emissions of greenhouse gases by over 5% below 1990 level by the period of 2008?2012.
“Over 600 thousand people died in weather?related disasters in the 1990s.Temperature and rainfall influence the rates of diseases and infections including malaria，and malnutrition，which together cause over 3.5 million deaths a year.The Kyoto Protocol is the first step towards protecting the climate system，which exerts such a strong influence on our health”，said Dr Kerstin Leitner，Assistant Director?General for Sustainable Development and Healthy Environments.
While acting to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, it is also essential to protect vulnerable (脆弱的) communities from the effects of climate changes.WHO works to promote measures such as protection from malaria and other climate sensitive diseases, and reliable access to clean water and sanitation, for people in the most vulnerable developing countries.Increasing disease control efforts will also help to protect current and future generations from the impacts of greenhouse gas emissions.
1.According to the passage, what is the reason for the rise of global temperatures?
A．The burning of fossil fuels.
B．The rise of sea level.
C．Extreme weather disasters.
D．The emissions of greenhouse gases.
2.Which of the following is true?
A．Weather?related disasters caused over 3.5 million deaths.
B．The climate system has a deep impact on human health.
C．The members of the Kyoto Protocol are all industrialized countries.
D．The poorest population are to blame because they contribute least to the problem.
3.In order to protect communities, WHO takes some measures except________.
A．preventing diseases caused by climate changes
B．helping to provide clean water
C．a(chǎn)iding to offer sanitation
D．gaining access to vulnerable developing countries
4.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A．Climate changes and the effects on human health.
B．Climate changes cause over 15,000 deaths annually.
C．Who promotes measures such as protection from malaria.
D．The Kyoto Protocol helps to protect human health.

I am an e?mail user. When I first started to use the e?mail system, I used to read all my e?mail. I didn’t have much mail. I gave my friends my e?mail address. Soon I had more mail than I wanted. Some of the mail was junk mail. I was worried. I didn’t want my mail to control me.
I’ve tried some methods to help me get control of my mail. First, I check my mail at the same time every day. Also I try to allow myself only 15～20 minutes every day to process my e?mail.

Sometimes I’m not at all interested in a message, so I don’t even open it. I delete it right away. This is very much the way I go through the mail that the postal service delivers to my home.
These methods are very simple. I have some friends who are very clever with computers. From time to time，they teach me new tricks for managing my e?mail. I’m still amazed at what e?mail can do for me! I’m still worried, however, about having too much to read.

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項。
I was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare (兔子) and the tortoise (烏龜). At the end I said, “Son, remember: Be slow and steady (鎮(zhèn)定的), and that will win the race. Don’t you think there’s something to learn from the tortoise?”
Sonny opened his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when I’m entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?”
I was shocked, “But the tortoise didn’t wish that the hare would fall asleep!”
“He must have wished that,” Sonny said, “Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”
“He didn’t have such a wish,” I insisted. “He won the race by perseverance (堅忍不拔), by pushing on steadily.”
Sonny thought a while. “That’s a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadn’t happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he’d never have won the race. That’s for sure.”
I gave up. Today’s children are not like what we used to be. They’re just hopeless.
1.The writer argued with his son because ________.
A. he liked tortoises while his son liked hares.
B. they disagreed about whether the tortoise was foolish.
C. he liked the story of the hare and the tortoise while his son didn’t.
D. he tried to teach his son a lesson but the son had different opinion.
2.Sonny believed that the tortoise ________.
A. in fact did win the race luckily
B. took a chance by agreeing to run a race
C. was not given a fair chance in the race
D. won the race by his own hard working
3.Billy, Tony and Sandy must be ________.
A. boys who were unknown to Sonny’s father
B. boys who Sonny has run races with before
C. boys who Sonny has never raced with before
D. boys who Sonny did not expect to race with again
4.According to the passage, who do you think learnt a lesson?
A. The tortoise B. Sonny
C. Sonny’s father D. The hare

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項。
No one would much like the idea of eating 61 pounds of tomatoes a day. But if their goodness was put into an easy?to?swallow pill that you were told might prevent strokes(中風(fēng)) and heart attacks you would probably be putting in an order tomorrow.
Researchers believe they may have come up with just that after trials. The daily pill contains a chemical called lycopene which makes tomatoes red and is known to break down fat in the vessels(血管)．A Cambridge University study found taking the pills improved blood flow and the lining of vessels in patients with pre?existing heart conditions. It also increased the flexibility(靈活性) of their vessels by 50 percent. The scientists believe it could limit the damage caused by heart disease—responsible for 180,000 deaths a year—and help cut the 49,000 deaths a year from strokes. They also hope it could benefit those with arthritis(關(guān)節(jié)炎), diabetes(糖尿病) and even slow the progress of cancer.
Each pill is equal to eating around 61 pounds of ripe tomatoes. Studies have shown eating a Mediterranean?style diet rich in tomatoes, fish, vegetables, nuts and olive oil can significantly reduce cholesterol(膽固醇) and help prevent cardiovascular disease.
Preliminary results from a two?month trial, in which the pill was given to 36 heart disease patients and 36 healthy volunteers with an average age of 67, were presented at a meeting of the American Heart Association. It was shown to improve the function of the endothelium—the layer of cells lining blood vessels. It also improved their sensitivity to nitric oxide, the gas which causes the enlargement of the vessels in response to exercise.
Ian Wilkinson, head of Cambridge University's clinical trials unit, said，“These results are potentially very significant and it meets the goal, but we need more trials to see if they translate into fewer heart attacks and strokes.”
Further studies are planned, with researchers hoping it could offer a choice for heart disease sufferers who can not take the cholesterol?lowing drugs.
Mike Knapton, head of the British Heart Foundation, said, “Although this showed lycopene improved blood flow in people with heart disease, that's a long way from demonstrating that taking it could improve outcomes for people with heart disease. The best way to get the benefits of a good diet is to eat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables.”
1.What can we infer from Paragraph 1?
A．We can eat too much tomato food.
B．Tomatoes are helpful to strokes and heart attacks.
C．Tomatoes will lose healthy elements if they are put into pills.
D．We had better not eat tomatoes.
2.We can learn from the passage that the pills ________.
A．a(chǎn)re at the experiment stage
B．can cure all the disease
C．a(chǎn)re widely used among patients
D．cost patients so little money
3.Who were the volunteers by taking part in the trial?
A．Children. B．Youth.
C．Working people. D．Old healthy people.
4.What was Ian Wilkinson's opinion on the trial?
A．Disappointing. B．Surprising.
C．Satisfactory. D．Terrible.

Being an astronaut sounds cool, doesn't it？In space, they get to do some pretty amazing things, like floating in zero gravity.
However，there are also plenty of things that astronauts can't do because of their weightless environment, and that's very sad. What's worse, they can't even let their sadness show—because it's impossible to cry in zero gravity.
Of course, astronauts can still produce tears. But crying is much more difficult in space，reported The Atlantic in January. Without gravity, tears don't flow downward out of the eyes like they do here on Earth. This means that when you cry in space, your tears have nowhere to go—they just stick to your eyes.
In May 2011, astronaut Andrew Feustel experienced this during one of his spacewalks.“Tears，” he said, “don't fall off your eye... They just kind of stay there.”
Besides making your vision unclear, this can also cause physical pain. Back on Earth, tears are supposed to bring comfort to the eyes.But that's not the case in space.The space environment dries out astronauts' eyes, and when tears suddenly wet the eyes, it can cause pain rather than comfort. “My right eye is painful like crazy.” Feustel told his teammate during the walk.
Since gravity doesn't work in space, astronauts need some extra help to get rid of the tears.Feustel chose to rub his eyes against his helmet to wipe the tears away. Another choice is to just wait—“When the tears get big enough they simply break free of the eye and float around，”astronaut Ron Parise told The Atlantic.
There are lots of small things—things like crying—that we are so used to on Earth. We usually take them for granted, until they become a problem in a totally different environment，like space. There, astronauts can't talk to each other directly. They also can't eat or drink in normal ways. They can't even burp(打隔), because there is no gravity to hold the food down in their stomach. If they do burp, they just end up throwing up(嘔吐) everything in their stomach，according to the UK National Space Center.
Thus, perhaps it's only space explorers who can honestly say：“Gravity, you're the best.”
1.What can we conclude from Paragraphs 2 and 3?
A．Astronauts are unable to feel sad in space.
B．Astronauts produce fewer tears in space.
C．Tears produced in space flow down more slowly.
D．Tears produced in space don't flow downward.
2.What effect do tears have on astronauts?
A．They cause physical pain.
B．They bring comfort to them.
C．They make their vision clearer.
D．They float around and cause trouble.
3.What can the astronaut do to get rid of the tears?
A．Rub his eyes against his helmet to let the tears float forward.
B．Rub his eyes by hand to let the tears float around.
C．Get the tears big enough to fall off of his eyes.
D．Get the tears big enough to break away from his eyes.
4.What's the last but one paragraph mainly about?
A．Suggestions on how astronauts can stay comfortable in space.
B．Other basic things that are difficult to do in space.
C．Why burping is impossible in space.
D．Things that humans can't do without gravity.

Before going outside in the morning, many of us check a window thermometer(溫度計)for the temperature. This helps us decide what to wear. 1. . We want our food to be a certain coldness in the refrigerator. We want it a certain hotness in the oven. If we don’t feel well, we use a thermometer to see if we have a fever. We keep our rooms a certain warmth in the winter and a certain coolness in the summer.
Not all the thermometers use the same system to measure temperature. We use a system called the Fahrenheit scale. But most other countries use the Centigrade scale.
Both systems use the freezing and boiling points of water as their guide. 2. .
The most common kind of thermometer is made with mercury(水銀)inside a clear glass tube. As mercury (or any other liquid ) becomes hot, it expands. As it gets colder, it contracts(收縮). That is why on hot days the mercury line is high in the glass tube. 3..
First. Take a clear glass juice bottle that has a cap; fill the bottle with coloured water. Tap a hole in the center of the cap using a hammer and thick nail. Put the cap on the jar. Then stick a plastic straw(吸管) through the nail hole.
4..
Finally. Place a white card on the outside of the bottle and behind the straw. Now you can see the water lever easily.
5..
As the temperature goes down, the water will contract, and the lever in the straw will come down. Perhaps you will want to keep a record of the water lever in the straw each morning for a week.
A. We use and depend on thermometers to measure the temperature of many other things in our daily lives.
B. Thermometers measure temperature, by using materials that change in the same way when they are heated or cooled.
C. Now that you know this rule you can make a thermometer of your own that will work.
D. The water will rise in the straw. As the temperature of the air goes up, the water will expand and rise even higher.
E. They label these in different ways. On the Fahrenheit scale water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees. On the Celsius scale water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100degrees.
F. Take wax (you may use an old candle if you have one) and melt some of it right where the straw is struck into the cap to seal(把..粘住) them together.
G. People use thermometers which are made by themselves when travelling around the world.
