However, many other human 2 (activity) also let off carbon gases. Anytime something is burnt, carbon is put 3 the atmosphere. Cars and other vehicles burn petrol in their engines, and electrical power plants most often burn fuels such as coal and oil in order to produce electricity.4, the more petrol and electricity we consume, the 5 carbon we are letting off.

One thing we can do to help solve this problem is to walk or use 6 bicycle when possible. Of course, there are times 7 we need to travel long distances. In this case, public transport such as buses and the underground is always a much better choice than a private car or a taxi.

How to Say Goodbye
Knowing how and when to say goodbye is often difficult, even in informal situations. But learning to say goodbye appropriately is a skill that will help you keep your relationships and let people know you care. Read on to learn how to recognize opportunities when you leave.

When you're at any kind of party or gathering, or even a one-on-one conversation, it can be difficult to get away. Learning to recognize good opportunities to leave will make a short-term goodbye much easier.
Watch body language.
People don't like telling you that they'd like you to leave. If the host of a party starts cleaning up, or withdraws (退出) from the conversation, gather your friends or belongings and make your exit. If someone starts checking their watch, or seems otherwise restless, it's also time to leave.
Make plans to see each other again.
Even saying, “See you at school tomorrow,” or “Can't wait to see you again at Christmas” keeps the goodbye light and focused forward.
Tell the truth.
Many people expect to come up with a “good excuse” when they're ready to leave.If you want to leave, just say, “I'm going to go now, see you later.”
A. You don't need to.
B. Set up a coffee date.
C. Recognize when to leave.
D. So try and watch for signals.
E. It makes the goodbye easier.
F. It's also easier than it seems sometimes.
G. If you haven't already made plans, use it as an opportunity to make them.

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。
You might think that “global warming” means nothing more than a rise in the world's temperature. But rising sea levels caused by it have resulted in the first evacuation (撤离) of an island nation, the citizens of Tuvalu will have to leave their homeland.
During the 20th century, sea level rose 8~12 inches. As a result, Tuvalu has experienced lowland flooding of salt water that has polluted the country's drinking water.
Paani Laupepa, a Tuvaluan government official, reported to the Earth Policy Institute that the nation suffered an unusually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years. Many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damaging storms.
Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the United States for refusing to sign the Kyoto Protocol, an international agreement calling for industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions (排放), which are a main cause of global warming. “By refusing to sign the agreement, the US has effectively taken away the freedom of future generations of Tuvaluans to live where their forefathers have lived for thousands of years.” Laupepa told the BBC.
Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand to allow the gradual move of its people to both countries.
Tuvalu is not the only country that is vulnerable (易受影响的) to rising sea levels. Maumoon Gayoon, president of the Maldives, told the United Nations that global warming has made his country of 311,000 an “endangered nation”.
(1)What is the text mainly about?
A.Rapid changes in earth's temperature.
B.Bad effects of global warming.
C.A country moving to a new place.
D.Reasons for lowland flooding.
(2)According to scientists, what is the direct cause of more and fiercer storms?
A.Greenhouse gas emissions in industrialized nations.
B.Higher surface water temperatures of the sea.
C.Continuous global warming.
D.Rising sea levels.
(3)Laupepa was not satisfied with the United States because it did not ________.
A.agree to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions
B.believe the problems facing Tuvalu were real
C.allow Tuvaluans to move to the US
D.sign an agreement with Tuvalu
(4)The country whose situation is similar to that of Tuvalu is ________.
A.Australia
B.New Zealand
C.the Maldives
D.the United States

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
Computer technology is still developing rapidly. The computer of the future will continue to increase in value and performance while decreasing in cost. It will become smaller, but faster and more powerful.
It is possible to make some guesses about what the future of the computer will look like, based upon the types of technologies that are being developed now. A lot of progress has already been made in some of these new technologies, but some are still in their earliest stages and may not be ready for use for years. Two of the most interesting areas of computing that are currently being developed are quantum computing (量子计算) and nanotechnology (纳米技术).
Quantum computing is one possibility for the future of the computer that could make computers run far faster than even the quickest computers do today. Quantum computers could be able to do what modern supercomputers are unable to do by using transistors that are able to take on many states at the same time.
Nanotechnology could also change the face of computing, by creating computers that could be very powerful, though they are tiny in size. These computers could be incorporated (并入) into everyday objects, including electrical appliances (电器), clothes and even the human body. We will be able to use computers in new and unimaginable ways. They will become a part of our lives rather than simply being a box that is used only for specific purposes, such as work.
Quantum computing and nanotechnology will be able to play new roles, which will make us live greener lives, as well as enjoy better health and happier lives.
(1)Which of the following can NOT describe the computer of the future properly?
A.Much smaller.
B.Much faster.
C.More powerful.
D.Less valuable.
(2)According to the text, quantum computing _____.
A.has been put in use so far
B.can make computers run by themselves
C.can reduce the cost of computers
D.will work by using transistors
(3)We can learn from the text that nanotechnology will _____.
A.create much smaller computers
B.be used in electrical appliances and clothing
C.change the structure of computers
D.make computers just serve specific purposes
(4)The text is mainly about _____.
A.what nanotechnology is
B.what quantum computing is
C.what the future of the computer is
D.what future computers can bring us
