Park Life

Meet us at the south entrance to Taohe Park at 9 a. m. next Saturday if you want to join in.
The Air You Breathe
A great way to make the air we breathe cleaner is by planting lots of trees! It is a fact that trees slowly filter (过滤) a lot of pollutants (污染物) from the air. So come and help us plant some new ones in Fenhe Park at 2 p. m. next Sunday.

Do you know that forests cover an estimated 38 percent of the total land surface of the European Union (EU) And that these extensive areas covered with trees and underbrush need to be protected so they can continue to do good for the environment for the next generation Now the EU has just come up with is ambitious new “Forest Strategy”.
Forests can fight against climate change and prevent biodiversity loss They can reduce the impacts of climate change by cooling down cities, protecting us from heavy flooding, and reducing drought impacts. They are valuable ecosystems that are home to a major part of the world’s plants and animals. But forests also improve our health and well-being through functions like water regulation, erosion (侵蚀) control and air purification. And they serve as ideal settings for “recreation, relaxation and learning, as well as securing livelihoods”.
This new European- wide forest conservation vision takes in an impressive commitment to plant a minimum of three billion additional trees over the next decade. This is an ambitious plan but a long overdue one because forests have been battered by severe weather and human impacts, particularly the demand for wood over the last ten years. As the EU Observer puts it,“extreme weather events and the increasing demand for forest services and products, driven by wood-based bioenergy and international trade, have accelerated tree cover loss in the last decade.”
This EU strategy takes into account the complexity of ; forest sustainability. Observation, knowledge exchange, ongoing monitoring and close cooperation between public and private organizations and individuals are also key elements in this new continent- wide forest protection strategy.
This is a future- focused blueprint, designed to protect these precious green areas, and ensure that the trees and greenery are here to stay!

If there’s one thing the UK is really good at, it’s saving its butterflies. The Butterfly Conservation program in the UK is the world’s largest conservation organization dedicated to saving rare and endangered insects. And recently, thanks to the efforts of UK farmers, the country’s rarest butterfly, the Duke of Burgundy butterfly, has been saved.
Ten years ago, if you were in the UK, you could only find this species in the North York Moors and the southern Lake District. The population of this butterfly experienced a significant drop of nearly 46% in the 90s and 00s which made it the rarest species in the UK at the time. However, thanks to the Butterfly Conservation organization and the efforts of many landowners, things are looking up.
Back in 2011, the Butterfly Conservation launched the Dukes on the Edge program that focused on restoring 23 hectares of habitat, providing management advice for more than 147 sites where the Duke butterflies are found, and getting over 1, 000 volunteers to help carry the conservation effort. Both local citizens and land owners joined the program, and as a result, the population of this species has grown by 25% in the last decade.
The recovery of the Duke was solidified when a butterfly enthusiast found the largest single colony in the UK. Located quietly on the hills of a dairy farm, the colony was the result of the efforts of a farmer who has proudly been supporting the habitat for over two decades. The good news is that the Duke butterfly is no longer the UK’s rarest, and the Butterfly Conservation organization continues to save dying species at maximum speed. They even convinced the UK government to include butterflies and moths as formal biodiversity indicators.
8.What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A.To give background information. B.To summarize the main idea.
C.To provide strong supporting proof. D.To attract readers’ attention.
9.How is paragraph 3 developed
A.By listing statistics. B.By giving examples.
C.By providing comments. D.By making a comparison.
10.What does the underlined word “solidified” in the last paragraph mean
A.Interrupted. B.Changed.
C.Noticed. D.Strengthened.
11.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A.The UK Butterfly Conservation Program Works
B.UK Butterflies Welcome a New Species
C.UK Farmers Save a Butterfly from Extinction
D.UK Government Cooperates to Save Butterflies
二、七选五
A new report released this week by the IPCC on Climate Change looks at the causes, impacts and solutions to climate change. It shows clearly how a warmer world is affecting all living things on Earth. Here are five things we learnt from it.
·____12____
Climate related impacts are hitting the world at the high end of what scientists once expected and much more quickly than previously assessed by the IPCC.Right now, as the report makes clear, around 40% of the world’s population is “highly fragile” to the impacts of climate change.
·Work together for a green world
For several years, developing countries have been accused of taking chief responsibility for global warming. ____13____, because richer nations are connected with the long-term historical responsibility for carbon emissions (排放), and they fear to pay endlessly for the damages they have contributed to.
·Technology is not always useful
According to the IPCC, the use of some technologies designed to reduce CO2 could make matters worse. There are also worries that machines that attract CO2 from the air could result in more warming gas. ____14____. However, the IPCC fears that planting trees in the wrong place can do more harm than good.
·Cities offer hope
While large cities are hotspots for climate impacts, they also offer a good opportunity to avoid the worst impacts of warming. As cities grow bigger, they can push for cleaner energy and greener transport. ____15____.
·Take immediate action
Any further delay (延误) in action will miss a rapidly closing window to secure a liveable future. It’s not just about spending a lot money on developing electric cars. ____16____. “Nature can save us,” said Inger Anderson, the head of the programme. “But only if we save it first.”
A.So it is important to live in small cities
B.Caring about nature is more important

Scientists call this global heat-trapping ______30______ the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect keeps the temperature of our planet’s surface comfortably warm.
Several gases in the atmosphere ______31______ to global warming. The one you’ve ______32______ heard the most about is carbon dioxide.

37.Dear fellow students,
It is known to all that our city is trying to build a national civilized city to create a better living environment for us. I am writing to call on all of you to make joint efforts towards this goal.
As students, we can do many things to help. First of all, it’s important to care for the public environment and keep our school clean. For example, we mustn’t drop litter or make loud noise. Second, we are always supposed to obey the traffic rules. Third, it would be helpful to have the volunteerism and volunteer in our spare time encouraging other citizens to behave properly. More importantly, improving ourselves is a good way to make us more civilized.
Dear fellow students, let’s work together to make our city a better place!
Thank you!
