4.Australia is the world's smallest continent and largest island, a relatively young nation established in an ancient land. Its development represents a triumph(胜利)over remoteness and a harsh landscape.It is generally accepted that Australia's original inhabitants, the aboriginal(土著的)people, have lived on the continent for 40,000 to 60,000 years. They were also its sole(唯一的)human inhabitants until two centuries ago. Indonesian traders probably visited Australia's northwest but it was unknown to the rest of the world until the 1600s. A huge south land appeared on maps before 200 AD but its existence was not confirmed until the 17th century when Portuguese, Spanish and Dutch merchants ventured into Asia.The first European settlement of the continent--by the British--began in 1788, on the site now occupied by Sydney, Australia's largest city. There were then about 1500 Europeans and an estimated 300,000 aboriginal people in Australia. The population has reached 2.25 million by 1881, 5.41 million by 1921 and 7.4 million by the end of World War II(1945). It increased sharply, partly because of a large postwar immigration program, and reached more than 17 million in 1991, despite a decline that began in the 1970s in the natural increase and net immigration. The rate of population increase in the 40 years after world war II, about two percent, has halved.Australia is one of the most urbanized countries in the world, with about 70 percent of the population living in the 10 largest cities. Australians have a high standard of living by world standards. The flag of Australia is the only one to fly over a whole continent in the world. The small Union Jack represents the historical link with Britain, the largest star has six points for each of the states and one point for the territories, and the small stars form. the Southern Cross - a prominent of the southern hemisphere night sky.1. The passage is written to _____.A. present a general picture of AustraliaB. persuade people to travel in AustraliaC. tell people the history of AustraliaD. describe the characteristic of Australia2. The first sentence in paragraph 1 mainly suggests that _____.A. Australia is a strange countryB. it is not easy to find AustraliaC. Australia has contradictory(矛盾的)featuresD. Australia is a continent and a country as well3. Which statement about Australia's population can NOT be inferred? _____A. The population change is a gradual increase.B. The population increased rapidly for a time owing to the government's special policy.C. The rates of population increase in different periods varied.D. The rate of population increase before World War II was about one percent.4. The word urbanized means _____.A. of towns or citiesB. of emergencyC. of suburbsD. of the countryside5. Which of the following statements is NOT true? _____A. The large star on the flag of Australia has seven points.B. People were certain of Australia's existence before 200 AD because it had appeared on maps.C. Australia enjoy relatively high standard of living compared with people in other countries.D. The aboriginal people of Australia were its only human inhabitants before the 18th century.

    The Cold Places

    The Arctic is a polar region.It surrounds the North Pole.
    Like Antarctica,the Arctic is a land of ice and snow. Antarctica holds the record for a low temperature reading一125 degrees Fahrenheit below zero.Reading of 85 degrees below zero is common in both the Arctic and Antarctica. Winter temperatures average 30 degrees below zero in the Arctic. At the South Pole the winter average is about 73 degrees below zero.
    One thing alone makes it almost impossible for men to live in Antarctica and in parts of the Arctic.This one thing is the low temperature一the killing chill of far North and the polar South.
    To survive,men must wear the warmest possible clothing. They must build windproof shelters. They must keep heaters going at all times.Not even for a moment can they be unprotected against the below-zero temperatures.
    Men have a way of providing for themselves.Polar explorers wrap themselves in warm coats and furs.The cold makes life difficult. But the explorers can stay alive.
    What about animals?Can they survive?Do we find plants?Do we find life in the Arctic and in Antarctica?Yes,we do.There is life in the oceans.There is life on land.
    Antarctica,as we have seen,is a cold place indeed.But this has not always been the case. Expedition scientists have discovered that Antarctica has not always been a frozen continent. At one time the weather in Antarctica may have much like our own.
    Explorers have discovered coal in Antarctica. This leads them to believe that Antarctica at one time was a land of swamps and forests.Heat and moisture must have kept the trees in the forests alive.

    Despite the hostile environment,both animals and plants can be found in the oceans and on land in polar areas.

    问答题
    Practice 10  Glaciers in Antarctica are melting faster and across a much wider area than previously thought, a development that threatens to raise sea levels worldwide and force millions of people to flee low-lying areas. Researchers once believed that the melting was limited to the Antarctic Peninsula, a narrow tongue of land pointing toward South America. But satellite data and automated weather stations now indicate it is more widespread. The melting also extends all the way down to what is called west Antarctica. By the end of the century, the accelerated melting could cause sea levels to climb by 3 to 5 feet-levels substantially higher than predicted by a major scientific group just two years ago. Making matters worse, the ice shelves that hold the glaciers back from the sea are also weakening.  For years, the continent at the bottom of the world seemed to be the only place on the planet not experiencing climate change. Previous research indicated that temperatures across much of Antarctica were staying the same or slightly cooling. The big surprise was exactly how much glaciers are melting in western Antarctica, a vast land mass on the Pacific Ocean side of the continent that is next to the South Pole and includes the Antarctic Peninsula. The glaciers are slipping into the sea faster because the floating ice shelf that would normally stop them—usually 650 t0980 feet thick—is melting. And the glaciers' discharge is making a significant contribution to increasing sea levels.  Together, all the glaciers in west Antarctica are losing a total of around 114 billion tons per year because the melting is much greater than the new snowfall. That's equivalent to the current mass loss from the whole of the Greenland ice sheet, New research found that melting glaciers will add at least 7 inches to the world's sea level—and that's if carbon dioxide pollution is quickly capped and then reduced.

    与以往见解不同,南极冰川正以更快的速度在大得多的范围内融化。这一变化将导致严重后果,使得世界范围内海平面上升,并迫使成千上万人背井离乡,逃离低海拔的地区。研究人员曾以为冰川融化只会局限于南极半岛这一片指向南美洲的小范围土地。但卫星提供的数据以及自动化气象站都表明这一现象已扩大:冰川一路融化,并且延伸至名为西南极的地区。到本世纪末,由于冰川融化速度加快,海平面可能上升三至五尺,这比两年前主流科学家们所预测的数值要高得多。冰架能使冰川不至于漂流于海上,可更糟的是,它们现在也面临着危机。
    多年来,地球上没有经历气候变化的唯一地方似乎只有南极洲。早先的研究表明从南极经过的空气温度恒定,甚至稍低。西南极是一片紧挨南极,包括南极半岛,位于南极洲濒临太平洋方向上的广阔陆地,但当你得知此片地域冰川消融的具体数目时,只会目瞪口呆。正常情况下,冰架通常有650到980尺厚,它们可以阻止冰川滑向海洋,但它们本身却在消融。而漂浮至海洋的冰川,成为了使海平面升高的重要原因。
    由于消融量比新的降雪量高得多,每年从西南极流失的冰川,总计可达到1140亿吨,这相当于丧失掉如今一整个格陵兰冰床。新的研究发现,如果不迅速限制并减少二氧化碳污染物的排放,正在融化中的冰川会使地球海平面上升至少7英尺。
