全球在变暖——但这会带来什么影响吗
在20世纪期间,地球温度大约上升了华氏1度。这个数值对你我来说很可能是无所谓的,但是跟其他自然变化相比较而言,这却是一种快速的增长。那么,他是怎么产生的呢?会产生什么影响呢?“关爱地球”组织的索菲、阿姆斯特朗就在探究这些问题。
毫无疑问,地球是在变暖(见表一),正式人类的活动导致了地球变暖二不是一种任意的自然现象。
所有的科学家都同意这种观点:人们为了生产能量而燃烧化石燃料(如煤、天然气和石油等),从而引起了全球温度的升高。在这个升温过程中所产生的一些副产品就叫做“温室气体”,其中最重要的就是二氧化碳。贾尼斯福斯特博士解释说:
“有一种科学家称之为‘温室效应’的自然现象。这种现象发生在大气层中少量的气体(如二氧化碳、甲烷、水蒸气等)吸收太阳的能量,从而使地球变暖的时候。如果没有这种‘温室效应’,地球的温度将比现在的温度还要低大约33摄氏度。因此,我们需要这些气体。但我们在大气层中增加了大量额外的二氧化碳是,问题就来了。这意味这更多的能量被困在大气层中,从而引起全球温度升高。"
我们知道,在过去的100~150年期间,二氧化碳的含量急剧增加了。有一位名叫查尔斯基林的科学家曾经把1957~1997年期间大气层中二氧化碳的含量做了精确的统计。他发现,在这些年里,大气层中的二氧化碳含量从315/1000000上升到370/1000000.(见表二)
所有的科学家都接收这个数据。他们还同意下述观点,正式由于越来越多的化石燃料的然是导致了二氧化碳的增加。那么气温会升到多高?福斯特博士说,在今后的100年里,全球变暖的量可能低到1~1.5摄氏度,但是也有可能高达5摄氏度。
然而,科学家们在对待升温的态度上却是大不相同的。一方面,福斯特博士认为气温升高5摄氏度的趋势可能是一场大灾难。她说:“对于未来的气候,我们不可能做出精确地预测,但那时的天气很可能是糟糕的。”同意他的观点的其他科学家认为,全球变暖会导致海平面上升好几米;也有人预言会出现严重的风暴、洪涝、干旱、饥荒、疫病传播和物种的灭绝。另一方面,还有一些人,像科学家乔治汉不利,反对这种观点,他们认为我们不必担心空气中会有高含量的二氧化碳。他们预言说,变暖的情况不会很严重,对环境的影响也不会太大。汉不利实际上是这样说的:
“二氧化碳含量的增加实际上是一件好事,它使植物生长的更快,庄稼产量更高,还会促进动物的生长——所有这些都能改善人类的生活。”
温室气体继续在大气层中聚集。技师我们开始减少二氧化碳和其他温室气体的含量,在未来几十年获几十个世纪里,气候仍会持续转暖。没有人知道全球变暖会带来怎样的影响。这是不是意味着我们就不必采取任何措施呢?还是说,这样不采取措施危险性会很大呢?

GEORGE’S DIARY 12TH—14TH JUNE
乔治的日记
Monday 12th, June
6月12日,星期一
Arrived early this morning by bus. Went straight to hotel to drop my luggage, shower and shave. Then went exploring. First thing was a ride on a cable car. From top of the hill got a spectacular view of San Francisco Bay and the city. Built in 1873, the cable car system was invented by Andrew Hallidie, who wanted to find a better form of transport than horse-drawn trams. Apparently he'd been shocked when he saw a terrible accident in which a tram's brakes failed, the conctor could not control the situation and the tram slipped down the hill dragging the horses with it.
今天早晨到达乘公共汽车去。径直走到酒店掉我的行李,淋浴和刮胡子。然后去探索。首先是一个骑一匹电缆车。从山顶上,得到了一个引人入胜的景观的旧金山海湾和这个城市。建立1873年,缆车系统由安德鲁赶紧发明,他想找一份更好的形式的交通比坐在弯折。显然,他很震惊,这时他看见了一起可怕的事故中,电车的刹车、导体不能控制的情况和电车滑下山坡马拖着。
Had a late lunch at Fisherman's What. This is the district where Italian fishermen first came to San Francisco in the late 19th century and began the fishing instry. Now it's a tourist area with lots of shops, sea food restaurants and bakeries. It's also the place to catch the ferry to Angel Island and other places in the Bay.
有一晚中午在渔夫是什么。这是该地区在意大利渔民第一次来到旧金山在19世纪末,开始渔业的发展。现在是一个旅游地区很多商店,海鲜餐馆和面包店。这也是地方赶上渡轮天使岛和其他地方湾的。
Did so much exploring at Fisherman's What. Am exhausted and don't feel like doing anything else. Early bed tonight!
在探索做了那么多的渔人什么。太累了,也别想做的任何东西。早期今晚床!

6月14日,星期三
In morning, took ferry to Angel Island from the port in San Francisco Bay. On the way had a good view of the Golden Gate Bridge. From 1882 to 1940 Angel Island was a famous immigration station where many Chinese people applied for right to live in USA. The cells in the station were very small, cold and damp; some did not even have light but the immigrants had nowhere else to go. Their miserable stay seemed to be punishment rather than justice and freedom to them. They wrote poems on the walls about their loneliness and mourned their former life in China. In 1940 the civil authorities reformed the system so that many more Chinese people were able to grasp the opportunity of settling in the USA. Made me very thoughtful and thankful for my life today.
在上午,作为渡轮天使岛的港口在旧金山海湾。在有一个好的视野的金门桥。从1882年到1940年天使岛是一位著名的移民站在哪里许多中国个人申请生存权利在美国。这些细胞在车站很小,寒冷和潮湿,有些甚至没有光,但移民没有别的地方可去。他们的悲惨的保持似乎而不是正义和自由的惩罚。他们在墙上写诗对他们的孤独和悼念他们的前任在中国的生活。1940年中国政府改革的各项制度,使更多的中国人,人们能把握机遇解决在美国。让我非常体贴和感谢我的人生。

Unit1 一个多元文化的国家
加利福尼亚是美国的第三大州,而且是人口最多的州。加州与众不同之处在于它也是美
国最具多元文化的一个州,它吸引了来自世界各地的人。这些移民的风俗习惯以及语言在
他们的新家都得以延续。当你了解了加利福尼亚的历史后,你就不会对此感到惊讶了。
美洲土著人
最早的一批人具体是在什么时候来到我们现在所知道的加利福尼亚地区的,谁也说不清楚。然而,很可能至少在15 ,000年以前美洲土著人就住在加利福尼亚了。科学家们认为,这些迁居者通过一条史前时代曾经存在的大陆桥穿越北极地区的白令海峡到达美洲。欧洲人在16世纪来到这儿后,土著人遭受了极大的苦难,成千上万的人被杀害或被迫成为奴隶。此外,欧洲人带来了疾病,使许多人染病而死,不过,还是有一些人在经历了这些恐怖时期后活下来了。今天住在加利福尼亚的美洲土著人比任何其他州的都要多。
西班牙人
在18世纪的时候,加利福尼亚是由西班牙统治的西班牙士兵最早是在1 6世纪初期来到南美洲的,他们同土著人打仗,并夺去了他们的土地。两个世纪以后,西班牙人在南美洲
的大部分地区定居下来,而且还在我们现在称之为美国的西北沿海地区住下来。在首批移居加州的西班牙人中,大部分是宗教人士,他们的职责是向原住民传授天主教。1821年,墨西哥人从西班牙获得了独立-加利福尼亚于是成了墨西哥的一部分。1846年美国向墨西哥宣战,美国赢得战争胜利后,墨西哥被迫把加利福尼亚割让给美国。但是,这个州至今仍然保留着很强的西班牙的影响。这就是为什么今天还有40%的加利福尼亚人仍然把西班牙语作为第一或第二语言的缘故。
俄罗斯人
19世纪初期,一批最初到阿拉斯加的俄罗斯猎人开始在加利福尼亚定居下来。今天,
住在圣弗朗西斯科(旧金山)及其周边地区的美籍俄罗斯人约有25,000人。
淘金矿工
1848年,在美国同墨西哥开战之后不久,在加利福尼亚发现了金矿。发财梦很快就吸引了世界各地的人。距离最近因而来得最早的是南美洲人和美国人。随后跟着来的有欧洲和
亚洲的探险家。事实上很少有人圆了发财梦。一些人死了或回家了,但是尽管条件十分艰苦,多数人还是留在了加利福尼亚劳作谋生,并在新的城镇或农场里定居下来。到1850
年加利福尼亚成为美国第31个州的时候,它已经是一个有着多种文化的社会了。
后来的移民
虽然中国移民在淘金热时期就开始到来了,但是更大批量的移民却是在1 9世纪60年
代为了修建贯穿美国东西海岸的铁路而来的。今天,加利福尼亚州各地都有美籍华人,尽
管有很大比例的华人还是选择住在洛杉矶和圣弗朗西斯科(旧金山)的“中国城”里。
19世纪后期,其他国家的移民,比如意大利人来到了加利福尼亚,他们主要是渔民,也有制酒工人,1911年,丹麦的移民建立了自己的城镇,至今仍然保留着丹麦文化。 20世纪20年代,电影业在加州的好莱坞建立了起来。这个行业吸引了大量的欧洲人,包括许多
犹太人。今天,加利福尼亚的犹太人口在美国占第二位。
日本农民是在20世纪初期开始到加利福尼亚来的,而从20世纪80年代以来就有更
多的日本人在加利福尼亚定居了。非洲人从1 9世纪就在加利福尼亚住下来,他们是从墨西哥向北迁来的。然而,更多的非洲人是在1942年至1945年期间来到加利福尼亚的,当时他们是到船厂和飞机厂工作。
最近期的移民
在最近的几十年里,加利福尼亚成了更多的亚洲人的家,包括朝鲜人、柬埔寨人、越
南人和老挝人。从20世纪70年代以来,计算机工业吸引了印度人和巴基斯坦人来到加州。
未来展望
世界各地的人,由于受到气候条件和生活方式的吸引,仍然在继续迁入加利福尼亚。人们认为,要不了多久,多种国籍的混合将会非常之大,以致不可能存在一种主要的种族或
文化群体,而是多种族、多文化的混合体。

Ⅶ 高中英语选修六第一单元阅读翻译《The wrong kind of small talk》
以斯帖Greenbaum是公司的传真机的售货员和商业供应。但她也是世界上最直言不讳的人——好吧,至少威彻斯特县。她的座右铭是“每次我打开我的嘴,Iput我的脚。”
以斯帖Greenbaum的主要缺点是,她完全没有闲聊。不,那不是真的。她闲聊,但这是错误的。事实上,她从未学会社会交往的基本规则,因此,她每次都犯了的错误她打开她的嘴。没有巧合,她不是一个很好的销售员。
有一天在一次会议上,以斯帖被引入一个重要的客户,一个成熟的女人。
“很高兴认识你,”她说。“你多大了?“客户显得尴尬。
“四十?45 ?”以斯帖说。“你看上去老得多。和你的朋友…她比你大,但是她看起来年轻得多!”
在另一个场合,以斯帖嘲笑一个打字员,“嘿!你的宝宝什么时候出生?”
打字员了红色和反驳以斯帖。“其实,我不是怀孕了,”她说。
以斯帖说:“哦,对不起。但没有任何道歉。“只是长胖一点,嗯?”
以斯帖是从不小心别人的感情。她的一个熟人,一个salwsman公司正在经历一个非常混乱的离婚,非常沮丧。她试图使他振作起来。“忘记她!她是一个完整的傻瓜。没有人喜欢她。”
很多时候,以斯帖说首先要进入她的头。在工作的一天,一个店员走进办公室,一个新发型。
以斯帖说:“漂亮的发型没有说。”
以斯帖说:“好吧,不管怎样,你都支付太多或者太少。”
她遇到了一个非常著名的作家。“嘿,真巧!”她说。“你在写一本书,就是我在读的那个”
以斯帖麻烦的是她想到什么说什么,并从不对她说的话多加思考。一个年轻人试图对他的新工作是适度的赞许。
“我猜公司选择我,所以他们会得到一些和平的办公室,”他笑了。
“不,我猜他们选择你是为了阻止你和我们一样将整个职业生涯浪费于此,“以斯帖亲切地回答。
一次,以斯帖去一个和一些老校友毕业周年时的早午餐聚会。她迎接女主人。
“你还记得那个在和你谈恋爱的家伙吗?他发生了什么事?”她问。“你知道,其貌不扬的家伙。”就在这时,一个男人站在她的朋友身边。“以斯帖,我想让你见见我的丈夫,”她说。
“查理斯,这是…”
以斯帖打断她,“嘿,你嫁给了他!”

选修6 Unit 1 Art-Reading
A SHORT HISTORY OF WESTERN PAINTING
Art is influenced by the customs and faith of a people. Styles in Western art have changed many times. As there are so many different styles of Western art, it would be impossible to describe all of them in such a short text. Consequently, this text will describe only the most important ones, starting from the sixth century AD.
The Middle Ages (5th to the 15th century AD)
During the Middle Ages, the main aim of painters was to represent religious themes. A conventional artist of this period was not interested in showing nature and people as they really were. A typical picture at this time was full of religious symbols, which created feeling of respect and love for God. But it was evident that ideas were changing in the 13th century when painters like Giotto di Bondone began to paint religious scenes in a more realistic way.
The Renaissance (15th to 16th century)
During the Renaissance, new ideas and values graallv replaced those held in the Middle Ages.People began to concentrate less on religious themes and adopt a more humanistic attitude to life. At the same time painters returned to classical Roman and Greek ideas about art. They tried to paint people and nature as they really were. Rich people wanted to possess their own paintings, so they could decorate their superb palaces and great houses. They paid famous artists to paint pictures of themselves, their houses and possessions as well as their activities and achievements.
One of the most important discoveries ring this period was how to draw things in perspective. This technique was first used by Masaccio in 1428. When people first saw his paintings, they were convinced that they were looking through a hole in a wall at a real scene. If the roles of perspective had not been discovered, no one would have been able to paint such realistic pictures. By coincidence, oil paints were also developed at this time, which made the colours used in paintings look richer and deeper. Without the new paints and the new technique, we would not be able to see the many great masterpieces for which this period is famous.
Impressionism (late 19th to early 20th century)
In the late 19th century, Europe changed a great deal. from a mostly agricultural society to a mostly instrial one. Many people moved from the countryside to the new cities. There were many new inventions and social changes. Naturally, these changes also led to new painting styles. Among the painters who broke away from the traditional style of painting were the Impressionists, who lived and worked in Paris.
The Impressionists were the first painters to work outdoors. They were eager to show how light and shadow fell on objects at different times of day. However, because natural light changes so quickly, the Impressionists had to paint quickly. Their paintings were not as detailed as those of earlier painters. At first, many people disliked this style of painting and became very angr about it. They said that the painters were careless and their paintings were ridiculous.
Modern Art (20th century to today)
At the time they were created, the Impressionist paintings were controversial, but today they are accepted as the beginning of what we call "modem art". This is because the Impressionists encouraged artists to look at their environment in new ways. There are scores of modern art styles, but without the Impressionists, many of these painting styles might not exist. On the one hand, some modem art is abstract; that is, the painter does not attempt to paint objects as we see them with our eyes, but instead concentrates on certain qualities of the object, using colour, line and shape to represent them. On the other hand, some paintings of modern art are so realistic that they look like photographs. These styles are so different. Who can predict what painting styles there will be in the future?
THE BEST OF MANHATTAN’S ART GALLERIES
The Frick Collection (5th Avenue and E.70th Street)
Many art lovers would rather visit this small art gallery than any other in New York. Henry Clay Frick, a rich New Yorker, died in 1919, leaving his house, furniture and art collection to the American people. Frick had a preference for pre-twentieth century Western paintings, and these are well-represented in this excellent collection. You can also explore Frick's beautiful home and garden which are well worth a Visit.
Guggenheim Museum(5th Avenue and 88th Street)
This museum owns 5,000 superb modern paintings, sculptures and drawings. These art works are not all displayed at the same time. The exhibition is always changing. It will appeal to those who love Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings. The Guggenheim Museum building is also world-famous. When you walk into gallery, you feel as if you
were inside a fragile, white seashell. The best way to see the paintings is to start from the top floor and walk down to the bottom. There are no stairs just a circular path. The museum also has an excellent restaurant.
Metropolitan Museum of Art (5th Avenue and 82nd Street)
The reputation of this museum lies in the variety of its art collection. This covers more than 5,000 years of civilization from many parts of the world, including America, Europe, China, Egypt, other African countries and South America. The museum displays more than just the visual delights of art. It introces you to ancient ways of living. You can visit an Egyptian temple, a fragrant Ming garden, a typical room in an 18th century French house and many other special exhibitions.
Museum of Modern Art (53rd Street, between 5th and 6th Avenues)
It is amazing that so many great works of art from the late 19th century to the 21st century are housed in the same museum. The collection of Western art includes paintings by such famous artists as Monet, Van Gogh, Picasso and Matisse. A few words of warning: the admission price is not cheap and the museum is often very crowded.
Whitney Museum of American Art (945 Madison Avenue, near 75th Street)
The Whitney holds an excellent collection of contemporary American painting and sculpture. There are no permanent displays in this museum and exhibitions change all the time. Every two years, the Whitney holds a special exhibition of new art by living artists. The museum also shows videos and films by contemporary video artists.
