The scene in the Hollywood movie The Day After Tomorrow, whem global warming could soon turn the global climate (气候) into a new ice age, may never occur, according to new research.

The next ice age could be 15,000 years away, say European scientists who last month announced a continuous record of 7.40,000 years of climate data (数据) obtained from the Antarctic ice.                                 

Scientists from 10 nations have now almost completely drilled through a 3,000-meter.depth of ice high in the Antarctic mainland. They figure out that the area where summer temperatures can fall to –40℃, has at least 900,000 years of snowfalls,, kept as neatly as the growth rings of a tree. And the ice and air caught in each layer(层) have begun to answer questions about the climates in the past..

The results show that there have been eight ice ages in the past 740, 000 years and eight warmer periods. And by comparing the pattern of global conditions today with those of the past, the researchers reported in Nature that the present warm period could last another 15, 000 years.

Research suggests that there is a very close connection between greenhouse gas levels and global average temperatures. It also shows that carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) levels are the highest for at least 440,000 years.         

"If people say to you: the greenhouse effect is a good thing because we would go into an ice age otherwise, our data say no, a new ice age is not hanging over our heads,”said Eric Wolff from the British Antarctic Survey. "Now we have eight examples of how the climate goes in and out of ice ages… and you can learn what the rules are that go into the climate models that tell us about the future."

Scientists found that whenever temperatures rose in the frozen record, so did carbon dioxide

level. "In 440,000 years we have never seen greenhouse gas get as thick as it is today," said Dr

Wolff.

48. In drilling through the ice in Antarctica, scientists, have found that______.

     A. the lowest temperature there is –40℃

     B. the depth of ice is 3,000 meters

     C. the ice has existed for 15,000 years

     D. snowfalls are kept in certain patterns

49. The information of the global climate conditions in the past can be obtained through______.

     A. separating carbon dioxide from the air

     B. examining the growth rings of trees

     C. comparing temperatures in different areas

     D. studying the ice and air caught in each layer

50. We can infer from Eric Wolff's words that_______.

     A. there is something wrong with the data

     B. greenhouse effect is always a bad thing

     C. a new ice age will not come in the near future

     D. greenhouse gas will get thick in the future

51. What would be the best title for the passage?

     A. Research over the Antarctic area.

     B. Warm period to last about 15, 000 years.

     C. Report on the eight ice ages in the past.

D. Hollywood movies and the global climate.

Everyone’s at it , even my neighbors. I thought I might be the only person left in the world who hadn't done an eBay deal.

You can buy these right away.

     If the item is being auctioned, you offer the. highest price you are prepared to pay and eBay bids (出价') for you. The bid will be increased little by little until it goes beyond your highest bid, then you are emailed and asked if you would like to bid again.

placing a bid as you might not want to post a cheque or postal orders. The easiest way is through PayPal, an online payment system that takes the money away from your credit card (信用).

Lack of parent willpower may contribute more to juvenile obesity than under-exercising or

overeating.

Research suggests that having overweight parents is a big, influence ( 影响) upon a child' s

weight, with one study finding that children with overweight parents were four times more likely to be overweight themselves.

The findings add heat to an already fierce political debate (争论) over childhood obesity. The Prime Minister, John Howard, last week decided that $116 million be Used for programs to deal with obesity, while the Opposition Leader, Mark Latham, recently announced that his party would move to protect children from unhealthy food advertisements..

Clare Colins a senior lecturer at the University of Newcastle, believes such programs will definitely fail unless they influence the way of life of whole families. "If we can' t get parents to take action against their own weight problems, then we can' t expect to influence their kids," she said.

However, Professor, Louise Baur from the Children’ s Hospital at Westmead, doubts whether

adult education programs offer any solution to weight problems. "Many parents know they need to lose weight and they knew it influences their kids, but they lack the willpower to do anything about it.

The, l0-year study of 150 American children found two-thirds of children with overweight parents became overweight. Only one in six children whose parents were of average weight became overweight.  

The president of the Australasian Society for the .Study of Obesity, Associate Professor Gary

Wittert, said parents needed help in doing their job and the Opposition Party’s policy(政策) might be on the right track.

"We know that driving without a seat belt is unsafe, so we make law against it,” he said.

"Obesity is a major public health concern, so why shouldn’t we change the law regarding unhealthy food ads?"

39. What does the underlined phrase “juvenile obesity” mean?

A. Adult education. B. Childhood overweight C. Parents’ influence D. Growing pains

40. What is TRUE about the programs supported by the Prime Minister?

A. Debates on them will become less fierce.

B. They will be effective in dealing with obesity.

C. A large sum of money will be spent on them.

D. They will influence people' s way of life.

41.Both Collins and Baur believe that overweight parents_______,

A. will come up with .better solutions

B. will help with their children' s education

C. should be more active in reducing weight

D. should carry out at least 10 years' study

42. According to some experts, the Opposition Party's policy________.

A. can help fight against unemployment

B. may protect kids from unhealthy food ads

C. should be brought back to the right track
