22、   Climate emergencies are a bit like buses. You wait an age for one and then three come along at once. Parliaments in the UK and Ireland passed motions declaring a climate emergency in May. Last Monday, Canada followed suit.

It isn’t just parliament sounding the alarm. “This is a climate emergency,” said U.N. climate chief Patricia Espinosa for the first time last Tuesday. Hours earlier, James Bevan of England’s Environment Agency and Vince Cable, the leader of the U.K.’s Liberal Democrats, also used the phrase.

They join a cast of high-profile public figures already on the bus, from UK opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn to UN secretary-general Antonio Guterres. But how did the language of climate change campaigners jump to the lips of the establishment, and should we welcome its seemingly unstoppable adoption?

Does this language make a difference? A day after Canada’s climate emergency motion, it approved a £4.4 billion oil pipeline. Bristol City Council in the UK also declared a climate emergency, yet the city’s mayor subsequently backed expansion of the local airport. Nothing changed on UK streets after parliament declared a climate emergency, notes former Labour Party leader Ed MIliband. “This silent response to an alarm that we ourselves have sounded symbolizes the challenge we face,” he wrote. _______?_______

Mike Hulme at the University of Cambridge argues against the phrase because it implies “time-limited radical(激进的)” action could end the emergency, when climate change is actually a “new condition of human existence.” Some, HUlme included, also fear the language may cause counterproductive responses.

Bur Roz Pidcock of communication organization Climate Outreach says a climate emergency “suggests a response that is very radical in scale and ambition, but not incautious or knee-jerk(本能的),” and certainly not a license for extreme measure like geoengineering the climate.

Despite the risk of phrase being devalued, Rebecca Willis at Lancaster University in the U.K. tells me it is still useful ---and that’s because it is true. As Spratt says, “You cannot solve a problem unless you name it for exactly what it is.” Getting politicians to adopt the language will also be crucial to holding them to tough policy decisions later, says Doug Parr of Greenpeace.

The phrase’s widespread adoption isn’t a problem. The lack of action equivalent to such language is. And that action is going to include a lot of silently gliding electric buses.

【1】Which of the following sentences may best end Paragraph 4?

A.We should strive to stimulate people’s initiative.

B.The use of “climate emergency” highlights the challenge.

C.Such a mismatch risks making the term meaningless.

D.There are many people against the use of the phrase.

【2】It can be inferred from the passage that Mike Hulme thinks that ______.

A.climate change call for deliberate consideration before action is taken

B.immediate action should be taken to put climate emergency to an end

C.the phrase “climate emergency” may lead to the opposite consequences

D.people all over the world have been accustomed to climate change

【3】Which of the following arguments can be used in favour of the phrase “climate emergency”?.

A.Extreme measures will be taken to address the issue of climate change

B.The use of the phrase may contribute to substantial policymaking.

C.The phrase will make no sense unless practical solutions are found.

D.Less attention is paid to the phrase though it reflects a true story.

【4】What is the author’s attitude towards the phrase “climate emergency”?

A.Negative B.Optimistic

C.Indifferent D.Objective

23、   Much of the United States is locked by an unusually large winter storm, which has sent temperatures dropping sharply across the country, from coast to coast and as far south as southern Texas. In many areas, ice and snow storms have added to the challenges. Only a few areas in the south have dodged the freezing weather pattern. The National Weather Service( NWS) says that a winter storm, this large and this serious, has almost never been seen before.

The NWS reports that over 150 million Americans were under winter storm warnings. In Texas, over 2.7 million people were left without power on Monday. Texas isn't used to such serious winter weather. In the city of Houston, temperatures have dropped to - 9℃. The storm has led to huge, deadly highway accidents, and has forced its airport to cancel flights. On Sunday, President Joe Biden declared an emergency in Texas, allowing the state to get more help for the weather disaster from the US government. Several other states have declared some sort of weather-related emergency. In Washington and Oregon, warming shelters were opened to help people stay warm and safe.

The NWS says cold air from the Arctic is behind the record-breaking low temperatures. Though it may seem surprising, global warming may be one of the causes. A strong wind known as the jet stream usually flows in a circle around the Arctic, keeping super-cold air near the North Pole. But as the jet stream weakens because of climate change, the cold air is able to escape the Arctic and bring freezing temperatures to places that are normally much warmer.

The NWS is forecasting there’ll be more snow and freezing rain over the next few days as a new storm cuts up toward the Northeast from the middle of the country. The NWS says that much of the country will continue to have extremely cold temperatures, and it's likely that hundreds of cold weather records will be broken. Perhaps, people should think about the consequences of global warming.

【1】Which can best replace the underlined word “dodged” in paragraph 1?

A．Seen.

B．Recorded.

C．Avoided.

D．Defeated.

【2】Why does the author mention Texas?

A．It’s hit the hardest by extreme weather.

B．It's brought the super cold under control.

C．It's the first to warn of the climate disaster.

D．It's helping other states with the winter storm.

【3】What does paragraph 3 mainly focus on?

A．How the jet stream forms in the Arctic.

B．What causes the extreme cold in America.

C．Why the cold air escapes from the Arctic.

D．When the global warming affects America.

【4】What is the NWS’s prediction about the rough weather?

A．It’ll change climate permanently.

B．It’ll cause another new storm.

C．It’ll lessen global warming.

D．It’ll go on for some time.

24、These days, Earth Day is celebrated every year on April 22 in schools and cities across the United States. There are class projects, programs, tree plantings and many other official events. So, it may be hard to realize that when it first started, Earth Day was considered a radical (激进的) protest.

The modern environmental movement began in the 1960s. It was a time of the generation gap. Young people were acting out against their parents’ way of life. College campuses were rocked by demonstration against the war in Vietnam and other issues. In the middle of this, in 1970, a US senator (参议员) from Wisconsin named Gaylord Nelson camp up with the idea for Earth Day. As he later explained it, the idea was to channel “the student antiwar energy” into the environmental cause.

A lot of young people felt that science was the enemy. This was in spite of the fact that a lot of the people who were warning the public about air and water pollution and animals in danger were scientists. After all, wasn’t it technology- cars, housing developments and factories-that was causing the problem by spreading pollution and destroying nature? Some adults who had thought Earth Day supporters had gone too far made fun of them. They called them “tree huggers”.

Environmentalists were right that technology had to be controlled. Laws and regulations were needed to make sure that both industry and science acted responsibly. Still, science got a bad name. It was as if you had to choose either science or nature. You couldn’t have both.

Lately, though, the situation has changed. We have come to see that science and the environment do not have to be enemies. Technology can be used to protect the environment, not destroy it. Look at all the advances in clean energy that have come from science. Just as Earth Day has evolved, so has our view of science and nature. We know today that we do not have to choose between the two. Instead, we understand that science is one of the main tools we can use to protect the environment. You can be a scientist and a “tree hugger”. That’s big advancement for science and great news for trees.

【1】What can people usually do on Earth Day?

A．Cut down trees.

B．Join in a protest.

C．Launch an investigation.

D．Complete a class project.

【2】Why did Gaylord Nelson suggest celebrating Earth Day?

A．To encourage young students to protect nature.

B．To direct the public’s attention to environmental changes.

C．To take students’ attention away from antiwar demonstration.

D．To narrow the generation gap between young people and their parents.

【3】What did some adults think of “tree huggers”?

A．Too extreme.

B．Quite rational.

C．Very knowledgeable.

D．Really considerate.

【4】Which statement is supported by the author?

A．People have to choose either science or nature.

B．Nowadays science can serve to protect the environment.

C．Science has been playing a positive part the whole time.

D．The development of science does harm to the environment.
