17、books at my mothers house. I started with big cloth-and-leather-bound books. When I ran out of bound volumes, I began to slip my treasures into anything I could find, such as old fiction paperbacks and cookbooks. The same is true in my house today. Shake a book, and a treasure just might fall into y

18、our hand.A few years ago, in Nova Scotia, my husband and I pulled off the road for a picnic. The ground was thick with clovers. Some shoots had four, five, or even six leaves. I lined them up on the picnic table to admire. To me, it was simple. The differences in their shapes made them stand out, br

On the way home, my husband and I were upgraded to business class. All of my frie

20、nds owed it to the clover. I think its some likely that we were upgraded because a flight was postponed （延誤），which left us trapped in two cities for several hours.People disagree about whether the luck comes for finding or possessing a clover. Some believe that the luck is lost if the four-leaf clov

25、he ocean. And if all that ice were to melt and go into the ocean, global sea levels would rise by about 24 feet everywhere around the world/ said Jason Briner, a geologist who studies the ice sheet in Greenland at the University of Buffalo. The ice sheet of the biggest island in the world is melting

26、, and the ice sheet that sits atop it is massive. The ice sheet is melting, of course. But just how much, compared to the past?Briners team did a computer simulation （模擬）of the southwest part of the Greenland ice sheet which he says is a good indicator （標示器）for ice melting across the entire ice shee

27、t. The researchers fed past climate data into that model to “hindcast, （Vi報）rather than forecast, the past activity of the ice sheet. They then checked the models predictions of the past shape and size of the ice sheet by looking at piles of rocks and dirt on Greenland today, which outline the edges

28、 of ancient ice. And the simulation was in good agreement with the actual situation.Using that reconstruction of the ice sheet over time, the team could compare the ice sheets historic losses to those happening today under human-caused global warming. And they determined that Greenland is on track t

29、o lose more ice this century than during any century in the past 12,000 years possibly four times as much.Finally, itzs up to us how much ice actually melts. If the world goes net carbon zero（零碳排放） by 2100, for example, Briner says ice loss could stop entirely at the end of the century, according to

30、 one model. Z/That was what kept me from being completely depressed about our study. Dozens of countries have already announced goals to go net zero by the middle of this century so far theU. S. is not one of them.What do we know about the Greenland ice sheet?It is as thick as over 10,000 feet.It is

31、 becoming smaller and smaller.It has raised sea levels by 24 feet.It is the largest ice sheet in the world.How did Brineys team conduct their research?By modeling part of the ice sheet on computer.By doing a simulation of the whole ice sheet.By studying the ancient rocks and dirt.By forecasting the

32、future climate change.What can we infer about the Greenland ice sheet in the last paragraph?The speed of its melting will be increasingly fast.The extent of its loss depends on human activities.Its ice loss will stop entirely at the end of the century.It will reach the goal of net carbon zero by the

33、 end of the century.What is the best title for the text?Rising Global Sea LevelsClimate Change is Speeding UpGreenland the Biggest Island is MeltingNet Carbon Zero a Global Goal by 2100DHarvard scientists have created a bionic （仿生的）leafw that turns solar energy into liquid fuel. The work is the frui

34、t of cooperation between Professor Pamela Silver at Harvard Medical School and Professor Daniel Nocera in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences.The pair; who began cooperating two years ago, share an interest in developing energy sources that might someday have practical application in remote areas in th

35、e developing world. Silver named the system “bionic“ because it joins a biological system to a clever piece of inorganic （無機的）chemistry previously developed by Nocera; that invention, widely known as the artificial leaf, turns solar energy into hydrogen （氫氣）fuel.Noceras artificial leaf, which serves

36、 as fuel source in the bionic leaf, works by sandwiching a photovoltaic cells （光電池）between two metal oxide catalysts （氧化催化物）.When put in water at room temperature and normal atmospheric pressure, the artificial leaf copies photosynthesis （光合作用）.Nocera has been perfecting the artificial leaf since he

37、 first demonstrated （演示）it in 2011； today, it is far more efficient than a field-grown plant, which assimilates only 1 percent of sunlights energy.The hydrogen is a fuel with a broad use, Nocera reports, and could easily become the basis of a fuel cell, but it has not been widely adopted, partly bec

38、ause it is a gas. By contrast, liquid fuels are much easier to handle and store.“Modern society, says Nocera, “has created an entire manufacturing economy based not only on burning fossil fuels, but on using oil to make things such as rubber and plastics/ A lot of chemistry was done which set that u

39、p, he notes. The present system makes sense now because oil costs so little; a sustainable system like the artificial or bionic leaf cant compete with that. But when oil becomes less and less, he say, “We might want to redo everything in terms of manufacturing. In the future, you might want to make

40、everything renewable. Then, you can trust bionic leaf.What can be implied from the second paragraph?The pair invented the artificial leaf.Bionic leaf got its name from its invention developed by Nocera.The pair are concerned about energy sources in developing countries.Both bionic leaf and artificia

In one 2013 study, students took practice tests over several weeks. On the final test, they scored better, on average,

47、than students who studied the way they normally had.Test yourselfNebels preferred study habit is one of the best way. Before big tests, Nebels mom quizzed her on the material. /zNow I know that was retrieval （檢索）practice, Hshe says. As Nebel got older; she quizzed herself. 39 Nebel suggests. z,Put q
