       Scientists in the United States say plant life has increased on Earth in the past twenty years and that in every area of plant growth the increase is the result of weather conditions.

       Eight scientists from across the United States did the study．The space agency NASA and the Department of Energy paid for it．The findings were published in the magazine Science.

       The researchers spent one and a half years examining weather satellite information．The information was recorded from 1982 to 1999．That period was one of the warmest on record．Researchers found that rainfall generally increased during that time.

       The satellites measured the number of leaves on plants and the amount of sunlight taken in．The scientists used that information to estimate what is called net primary production．This is total amount of carbon stored in land plants.

       The scientists report a 6% increase in stored carbon since 1982．They say gains were high in equatorial areas, especially around the Amazon River in South America．The area alone had a 1% increase in the net primary production.

Ramakrishna Nemani of the University of Montana in Missoula headed the study．He says reduced cloud cover led to growth in Amazon area．He also says the lack of clouds allowed more sunlight to get through．More sunlight meant increases in photosynthesis（光合作用）．That is the process by which plants use energy from sunlight to produce the chemicals they need to grow.

       Northern Canada, the north-central United States and northern Europe were second in increased plant growth．Ramakrishna Nemani says a rise in temperature helped plants there.

       All together, the report says 25% of areas of plant life on Earth experienced increases．But the scientists also note increase in the number of people on Earth and carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere．Ranga Myneni of Boston University in Massachusetts, another study scientist says humans use about half the net primary production on Earth．And he notes that the world population grew by 36% during the period of time studied.

1．Which of the following is in charge of the study?

       A．The space agency NASA of the US.       B．The Department of Energy of the US.

       C．Ramakrishna Nemani in Missoula.         D．Ranga Myneni in Massachusetts.

2．What’s the main cause of the plant growth put forward by the study?

       A．Growth in population.                          B．Regional features.

       C．Seasonal variation.                               D．Weather conditions

3．Why do scientists believe that reduced cloud cover has led to the plant growth in the Amazon area?

       A．Because plants could take in more sunlight.

       B．Because plants could get more rainfall.

       C．Because plants could enjoy cooler air.

       D．Because plants suffer less from natural disasters.

4．Which of the following descriptions about the years from 1982 to 1999 is TRUE?

       A．It was the warmest on record.

       B．Rainfall decreased little by little.

       C．World population grew by 25%.

       D．Stored carbon increased by 6%.

It’s not entirely true that kids learn a second language easily, but it’s still the best time to learn．Babies are basically equipped to hear and distinguish every possible language and dialect, but once they reach 6 months old, they begin to focus on the particular sounds that exist in the languages that they’re exposed to．In this way, kids will naturally and automatically be bilingual（双语的） if they hear multiple languages on a daily basis when they are still babies..

One lady told me of her son who grew up in a very multi-cultural community working at a resort．He would naturally and easily switch from Dutch, to French, to Italian, German and English depending on who he was talking to．Of course that’s an extreme case, but it’s completely possible and easy.

It’ s not true that they will get mixed up by learning multiple languages．They may mix them up purposely simply because certain words or expressions are easier, but they won’t develop any permanent language disabilities．Quite the contrary, bilingual children have been shown to be as much as a year more advanced in learning ability development for 2 and 3 years olds.

Some kids who simply aren’t gifted at learning languages, just as some aren’t gifted at sports or music, will find it difficult to continue schooling in a foreign language．In that case, it may be better not to continue with the foreign language school．Still, it will have been an excellent opportunity for Grade One．Perhaps for Grade Two you could try a bilingual school.

In any case, learning even a small amount of a foreign language, maintaining the ability to hear and pronounce it by listening to music and movies will keep a foundation for later learning．Knowing a second language can be a great benefit for gaining employment.

1．What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?

       A．It’s difficult for kids to learn a second language.

       B．Kids are able to learn multiple languages.

       C．Kids should be exposed to the native language.

       D．Kids enjoy all kinds of different dialects.

2．What did the lady tell us about her son?

       A．He could speak five kinds of languages.

       B．He was learning some different languages.

       C．He could talk with many people at the same time.

       D．He was working in a multi-community.

3．In which way can learning multiple languages benefit kids according to the text?

       A．Mixing up different languages.              B．Distinguish different dialects.

       C．Developing learning ability.                    D．Developing language disabilities.

4．What should you do if your kids are not good at learning language?

       A．Ask them to turn to sports or music.

       B．Encourage them to remain in Grade One.

       C．Let them remain in the foreign language school.

       D．Send them to a bilingual school later.

       Australia is famous for its beautiful beaches．And Australian people love swimming and going to the beach．But it wasn’t always that way.

       Different Climate, Different Habits

       When Europeans first invaded Australia, the only people here who were good at swimming were the Aboriginal people．The Europeans came from climates where it was too cold to swim．However the warm climate of Australia soon changed their attitude to swimming．At first, only men swam．They swam without any clothes on—there were no women to see them.

       Cover up!

       By the 1880 and 1890s visiting the beach was very fashionable．People wore everyday street clothes—much more than people wear at the beach today.

       In those days people believed they should cover their most body so it would not be seen by the opposite sex．Special bathing costumes were designed for women．This costumes used a lot of cloth and were very heavy when wet, making it difficult to swim.

       Laws Made and Laws Changed

       The government decided to stop men swimming naked．It passed a law which forbade bathing between 6 am and 7 am．But in 1903, the laws changed; people could swim in the daytime, but they had to wear neck-to-knee costumes.

       The Shrinking Costume

       As time passed, swimming costumes became smaller and more convenient.

       At first men and women were covered from neck to knee．Then arms became bare．Then more of the legs were uncovered．Each new change was regarded by many as shocking and rude and people wrote letters to the newspapers complaining about the new costume．Nowadays some people go to special “nude beaches” to swim naked.

       However, most people cover their bodies more than they did ten years ago—not because they think bare skin is shocking—but to protect their skin from the harmful rays of the sun.

1．Which of the following statements about the climate of Australia is TRUE?

       A．It made European settlers think differently about swimming.

       B．It changed European settlers’ swimming costume.

       C．It made European settlers feel much hotter.

       D．It made European settlers have to swim naked.

2．What should swimmers do during the late 19^th century?

       A．They should hide when they meet a person of the opposite sex.

       B．They should cover their body to avoid being seen by the opposite sex.

       C．They should wear many heavy clothes on beaches.

       D．They should wear special wet costumes designed for them.

3．What does the underlined sentence mean?

       A．People were surprised by each new change and criticized it.

       B．People were amazed by each new change and praise it．

       C．Only newspapers were in favor of each new change.

       D．Only newspapers thought poorly of each new change.

4．What can we conclude from the last paragraph?

       A．People worry about getting skin cancer from too much sun.

       B．People protected their swimming costumes from too much sun.

       C．People are greatly shocked by the nude beaches.

       D．People think it rude to swim with the smaller costumes.
