23、ile clean energy is increasingly used in our daily life, global warming will continue for some decades after CO2 emissions(排放) peak. So even if emissions were to begin to decrease today, we would still face the challenge of adapting to climate change. Here I will stress some smarter and more creativ

24、e examples of climate adaptation. When it comes to adaptation, it is important to understand that climate change is a process. We are therefore not talking about adapting to a new standard, but to a constantly shifting set of conditions. This is why, in part at least, the US National Climate Assess

25、ment says that：“There is no ‘one-size fits all’ adaptation.” Nevertheless, there are some actions that offer much and carry little risk or cost. Around the world, people are adapting in surprising ways, especially in some poor countries. Floods have become more damaging in Bangladesh in recent deca

26、des. Mohammed Rezwan saw opportunity where others saw only disaster. His not-for-profit organization runs 100 river boats that serve as floating libraries, schools, and health clinics, and are equipped with solar panels and other communicating facilities. Rezwan is creating floating connectivity(連接)

27、 to replace flooded roads and highways. But he is also working at a far more fundamental level: his staff show people how to make floating gardens and fish ponds to prevent starvation during the wet season. Elsewhere in Asia even more astonishing actions are being taken. Chewang Norphel lives in a

28、mountainous region in India, where he is known as the Ice Man. The loss of glaciers(冰川) there due to global warming represents an enormous threat to agriculture. Without the glaciers, water will arrive in the rivers at times when it can damage crops. Norphel’s inspiration came from seeing the waste

29、of water over winter, when it was not needed. He directed the wasted water into shallow basins where it froze, and was stored until the spring. His fields of ice supply perfectly timed irrigation(灌溉) water. Having created nine such ice reserves, Norphel calculates that he has stored about 200，000m3

30、of water. Climate change is a continuing process, so Norphel’s ice reserves will not last forever. Warming will overtake them. But he is providing a few years during which the farmers will，perhaps, be able to find other means of adapting. Increasing Earth’s reflectiveness can cool the planet. In so

31、uthern Spain the sudden increase of greenhouses(which reflect light back to space) has changed the warming trend locally, and actually cooled the region. While Spain as a whole is heating up quickly, temperatures near the greenhouses have decreased. This example should act as an inspiration for all

32、cities. By painting buildings white, cities may slow down the warming process. In Peru, local farmers around a mountain with a glacier that has already fallen victim to climate change have begun painting the entire mountain peak white in the hope that the added reflectiveness will restore the life-

33、giving ice. The outcome is still far from clear. But the World Bank has included the project on its list of “100 ideas to save the planet”． More ordinary forms of adaptation are happening everywhere. A friend of mine owns an area of land in western Victoria. Over five generations the land has been

34、too wet for cropping. But during the past decade declining rainfall has allowed him to plant highly profitable crops. Farmers in many countries are also adapting like this—either by growing new produce, or by growing the same things differently. This is common sense. But some suggestions for adaptin

35、g are not. When the polluting industries argue that we’ve lost the battle to control carbon pollution and have no choice but to adapt, it’s a nonsense designed to make the case for business as usual. Human beings will continue to adapt to the changing climate in both ordinary and astonishing ways.

36、But the most sensible form of adaptation is surely to adapt our energy systems to emit less carbon pollution. After all, if we adapt in that way, we may avoid the need to change in so many others. 【解題導(dǎo)語】　盡管清潔能源在如今的生活中被越來越多地使用，全球變暖仍將在未來的幾十年中繼續(xù)。面對這個(gè)問題，人們想出了不同的具有創(chuàng)造性的方法來適應(yīng)它。 3．The underlined part in P

37、aragraph 2 implies________． A．a(chǎn)daptation is an ever-changing process B．the cost of adaptation varies with time C．global warming affects adaptation forms D．a(chǎn)daptation to climate change is challenging A　解析：句意理解題。根據(jù)上文中的“We are therefore...but to a constantly shifting set of conditions.”可知，對于不斷變化的環(huán)

38、境，沒有一個(gè)通用的方法來解決所有這樣的問題。故畫線部分暗示的是適應(yīng)環(huán)境也是一個(gè)不斷變化的過程。故A正確。 4．What is special with regard to Rezwan’s project? A．The project receives government support. B．Different organizations work with each other. C．His organization makes the best of a bad situation. D．The project connects flooded roads and highw

39、ays. C　解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段首句可知，世界范圍內(nèi)尤其是一些貧窮地區(qū)的人們使用了令人意想不到的方法去適應(yīng)環(huán)境的改變，化劣勢為優(yōu)勢，再結(jié)合下文的內(nèi)容可知，Rezwan 就是這么做的，故答案為C。 5．What did the Ice Man do to reduce the effect of global warming? A．Storing ice for future use. B．Protecting the glaciers from melting. C．Changing the irrigation time. D．Postponing the meltin

40、g of the glaciers.

A．White paint is usually safe for buildings. B．The global warming trend cannot be stop

41、ped. C．This country is heating up too quickly. D．Sunlight reflection may relieve global warming.

42、highly profitable crops C．leave carbon emission alone D．fight against carbon pollution D　解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第七段中的“When the polluting industries argue that we’ve lost the battle to control carbon pollution and have no choice but to adapt”可知，污染行業(yè)辯稱因?yàn)槿藗儧]有贏得治理碳污染的戰(zhàn)役，只能適應(yīng)，再結(jié)合下文的“it’s a nonsense designed to ma

43、ke the case for business as usual” 可知，作者認(rèn)為污染行業(yè)的這種說法是荒謬的，其目的是給自己的商業(yè)行為制造借口。由此可推知，對于污染行業(yè)來說，負(fù)責(zé)任的做法是同碳污染抗?fàn)帲詼p少碳排放，故D項(xiàng)正確。 8．What’s the author’s preferred solution to global warming? A．Setting up a new standard. B．Reducing carbon emission. C．Adapting to climate change. D．Monitoring polluting industrie

44、s. B　解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段第二句“But the most sensible form of adaptation is surely to adapt our energy systems to emit less carbon pollution.” 可知，作者認(rèn)為最明智的應(yīng)對全球變暖的方法是減少碳排放，故B項(xiàng)正確。 B卷 完形填空 I spent last summer volunteering at a hospital.

Upon arrival in the West, many Chinese find they have to firstly put on the brakes. Li Feng, raised in northern

66、 China and now based in England, agrees.“The only thing Chinese people would be shocked by in Britain is how long it takes to do things，”he says.“For instance, in China if you want to open a bank account, you don’t wait and you just do it at the counter.” Out-of-hours and weekend work is standard in China, but in Britain, the weekend is for family and friends.
