As the school year barely starts in Denver, French teacher Melanie is filled with worry that her students are always absent-minded. Yet, the problem isn't messaging, enjoying video games or delivering notes. Surprisingly, the problem is about the ongoing heat wave in Denver.
"Today was a little bit hot, so I noticed that kids were very sleepy and they had to get up to drink water quite often," said Melanie, who works at Denver's East High School. "If you lose too much water, you have to keep going to the water fountain, which can take away from their classroom experience. While nodding off in class on a warm day may seem acceptable for average teens, Melanie's observation carries a bigger consequence than dry lips.
"There have been quite a few media reports about teachers noticing that students weren't able to focus on hotter days," said R Jisung Park, a researcher. "Does a hotter climate during the school year actually affect the rate of learning " The drop in academic achievements couldn't be explained by hotter weekends or hotter summers, but the trend was connected to higher temperatures on school days alone.
The connection between lost learning and a greater number of hot days is one more example of how climate change is already affecting our lives—and it's an alarm bell for what we stand to lose in the future. Humans still have time to lessen the negative consequences of continued global warming. Without any important changes in the next 10 years, the globe will be trapped in an unavoidable era of heat waves that were unprecedented for human beings.
1.What may cause students to be absent-minded according to the text
A.Video games. B.Text messages. C.Heat waves. D.Classroom notes.
2.What can be inferred from the second paragraph
A.Kids often go to the water fountain for lack of water.
B.Extreme heat may lower a kid's ability to learn.
C.Nodding off in class is a sign of respecting teachers.
D.Kids are more interested in drinking water than sleeping.
3.How does the author feel about dealing with the future global warming
A.Optimistic. B.Uncertain. C.Worried. D.Indifferent.
4.What does the text mainly talk about
A.The way that global warming continues.
B.The reasons why kids are absent-minded in class.
C.The hotter it grows, the more focused kids become.
D.The hotter it grows, the harder it will be for kids to learn.
四、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
My crippled (瘸腿) grandmother was dancing. I stood in the living room doorway, absolutely shocked. I heard her singing when I opened the door but did not want to interrupt her by shouting I had arrived. She was wearing beautiful dancing shoes and her legs obeyed her perfectly. As long as I could remember, she was once the pet of the dancing world. But it was all over after a sudden accident. She had always limped (一瘸一拐地走), helped by a cane (拐杖).
She turned around and saw me standing in the doorway. Her song ended, and her beautiful movements ended with it. Grandma turned towards the kitchen. She was walking with no difficulties in her beautiful shoes. I followed her, not believing my eyes.
"So..." I asked surprisedly but happily, "how did your leg heal(康复) "
"To tell you the truth—my leg has been well all my life," she said.
"But I don't understand!" I said. "I mean... You have pretended all these years "
"Very much so," Grandmother closed her eyes, "and for a very good reason."
"What reason "
"Your grandfather."
"You mean he told you not to dance "
"No, this was my choice. I am sure I would have lost him if I had continued dancing. I weighed fame (名声) against love and love won."
"We were talking about the engagement (订婚) when your grandfather had to go to war. It was the most terrible day of my life when he left. I was so afraid of losing him, and the only way I could stay peaceful was to dance. And then one day a letter came. There were only three sentences: 'I have lost my leg. I am no longer a whole man and now give you back your freedom. It is best if you forget about me.' "
Grandma continued to tell me that Grandfather was in hospital and she made her decision not to give him up. She took her leave, and traveled away from the city.
Paragraph 1:
Several weeks later, she returned.________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
She took a deep breath, leaned on her cane and limped to Grandfather.__________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

四、答案：
Paragraph 1:
Several weeks later, she returned. She had bought herself a cane and wrapped her leg tightly with bandages. She told everyone she had had a car crash and that her leg would never completely heal again. Her dancing days were over. No one suspected the story----she had learned to limp convincingly before she returned home. Then she traveled to the hospital. She saw my grandfather seated in his wheelchair with a cane on the ground nearby.
Paragraph 2:
She took a deep breath, leaned on her cane and limped to Grandfather. She told him she had an accident and a leg was injured seriously. She showed him two engagement rings she had bought the day after he left for the war. "I was not going to waste them on any other man," Grandma said to him. Then Grandfather bent to take his cane from the ground but Grandma was not going to help. And so he managed it on his own and never sat in a wheelchair again in his life.
