八、Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehension(总题数：0，分数：0.00)
九、Task 1(总题数：1，分数：5.00)
Tuvalu, north of Fiji, is a tiny country in the Pacific Ocean.
Storms and huge waves are a constant threat and none of Tuvalu's nine little islands is more than
five metres above sea level. Salt water is already entering the country's drinking water supply,
as well as damaging plants that produce fruit and vegetable. It fears it will be swallowed up

by the sea. Without urgent help, the country's days are numbered.
But Tuvalu is not the first place to face sinking into the sea. Venice, a historic city in Italy
best known for its canals, has sunk about 24cm over the past 100 years. Experts say that it will
have sunk another 20-50cm by 2050. A century ago, St. Mark's Square, the lowest point in the city,
flooded about nine time a year. Nowadays, it happens more than 100 times.
While Venice is slowly sinking into the mud on which it stands, Tuvalu's rising sea level is caused
by global warming. The average global temperature has increased by almost 0.5 centigrade degree
over the past century; scientists expect it to rise by an extra 1-3 degrees over the next 100
years.
Warmer weather makes glaciers melt, adding more water to the ocean. The warmer temperatures also
make water expand, so it takes up more space, causing the sea level to rise. The sea level has
risen about 10-25cm in the last 100 years.
People have been increasing the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as CO[
2
], through burning
coal, oil and gas. This adds to the power of the greenhouse effect, making the planet even warmer.
Many scientists believe that, if the warming is not stopped, there will be huge climate changes.
The sea level could rise by one metre this century.
Should this come true, millions of homes would be swallowed up by the sea and the world will be
flooded with

十、Task 2(总题数：1，分数：5.00)
Along the river banks of the Amazon and the Orinoco there lives a bird that swims before it can
fly, flies like a fat chicken, eats green leaves, has the stomach of a cow and has claws (爪)
on its wings when young. They build their homes about 4.6m above the river, an important feature
for the safety of the young. It is called the hoatzin.
In appearance, the birds of both sexes look very much alike with brown on the back and cream and
red on the underside. The head is small, with a large set of feathers on the top, bright red eyes,
and blue skin. Its nearest relatives are the common birds, cuckoos. Its most striking feature,
though, is only found in the young.
Baby hoatzins have a claw on the leading edge of each wing and another at the end of each wing
tip. Using these four claws, together with the beak (喙), they can climb about in the bushes,
looking very much like primitive birds must have done. When the young hoatzins have learned to
fly, they lose their claws.
During the drier months between December and March hoatzins fly about the forest in groups of
20 to 30 birds, but in April, when the rainy season begins, they collect together in smaller living
units of two to seven birds for producing purposes.

One out of many important things for the whole family to do is to have dinner together. Researchers
began reporting the benefits of family dinner about a decade ago, focusing mainly on how it affects
children. Studies show that those families who eat dinner at least 3 or 4 times a week together,
benefit in many ways.
Eating together helps families achieve open communication and build stronger and healthier
relationships. Children have better grades at school and are better adjusted as teens and adults,
and the entire family enjoys healthier nutrition. For many families, eating dinner together proves
to be a good and effective way to reduce the risk of youth rates of addiction, and helps to raise
healthier children. It is also a great time to share the events of the day, discuss news and ideas
and just be together and enjoy each other's company.
