Dear Editor,

Recently we have made a discussion about the prevent of global warming in our research

group. Everybody has become aware the green-house effect, what has drawn the attention of the world. Many scientists on the summit of COPENHAGEN warned any rise above 2 degrees could lead to a sea level rise threatening islands and coastal cities, kill off many specie of animals and plants. As a result of, every nation should work together to limit the release of carbon dioxide. Everybody should shoulder the responsible for fight against climate change, and a low carbon life is a must.

I think fight against global warming is part of environmental protection. If we humans are more friend to nature, nature will be friendly, too. It’s time everybody rethink our role in keeping peace with our mother, nature.

Yours   sincerely,

Lihua

Edward Wilson is America’s, if not the world’s, leading naturalist. In The Future of Life, he takes us on a tour of the world’s natural resources(资源). How are they used? What has been lost? What remains and is it able to continue with the present speed of use? Wilson also points out the need to understand fully the biodiversity(生物多样性) of our earth.

Wilson begins with an open letter to the pioneer in environment(环境) protection Henry David Thoreau. He compares today’s Walden Pond with that of Thoreau’s day. Wilson will use such comparisons for the rest of the book. The problem is clean man has done great damage to his home over the years. Can the earth, with human help, be made to return to biodiversity levels that will be able to support us in the future?

Biodiversity, Wilson argues, is the key to settling many problems the earth faces today. Even our agricultural crops can gain advantages from it. A mere hundred species (物种) are the basis of our food supply, of which but twenty carry the load. Wilson suggests changing this situation by looking into ten thousand species that could be made use of, which will be a way to reduce the clearing of the natural homes of plants and animals to enlarge farming areas.

At the end of the book, Wilson discusses the importance of human values in considering the environment. If you are to continue to live on the earth, you may well read and act on the ideas.

1.We learn from the text that Wilson cares most about           .

A. the environment for plants

2.How many specie are most important to our present food supply?

A. Twenty.                             B. Eighty

C. One hundred.                            D. Ten thousand.

3.Wilson suggests that one way to keep biodiversity is to          .

A. learn how to farm scientifically

B. build homes for some dying species

C. make it clear what to eat

D. use more species for food

4.We can infer that the text is           .

A. a description of natural resources          B. a research report

C. a book review                           D. an introduction to a scientist
