record of the weather even further back.
It's clear that a tree would grow best in a climate with lots of sunlight and rainfall. It is also expected that little sunlight or rainfall would limit the growth of a tree. The change from a favorable (有利的) to an unfavorable climate can be reading the tree rings in tree trunk. To find out the weather of ten years ago,count the rings of a tree trunk from the outside to the inside. If the tenth ring is far from the other rings,then we are sure that lots of sunny and rainy weather happened. If the rings are close together,then the climate was bad for the tree.
Studying tree rings is important not only for the history of the weather,but also for the history of man. In a place of New Mexico you can find only sand-no trees and no people. However,many centuries ago a lot of people lived there. They left suddenly. Why?
A scientist studied the dead tree rings which had grown there. He decided that the people had to leave because they had cut down all the trees. Trees were used to make fires and buildings. So, after the people cut down the trees,they had to move.

听力原文:M: You like living in the city, don't you?
W: Oh, I love it. It's so, convenient. I can take the bus to work, or the subway, or the taxi. And there is so much to do.
M: I know what you mean. I'd like to live in the city, but to live in the suburbs is better for children.
W: Well, there are a lot of good things about suburban living. But, as a working woman, I think a city has all the conveniences…including the best food and fastest news.
M: But there are more trees, grass and fresh air in the suburbs.
W: Yeah, but living in a city, it's convenient to go everywhere. There are lots of movie houses, theaters and so on. You can take them to the suburbs on the weekends.
M: Yeah, children are the right age. There are lots of things for them here.
W: You are right. They are at the library in Brooklyn. And they come back home for lunch, then go uptown to the Museum of Natural History. There is so much for young people, to see and do.
M: Not just for young people. What about me? I've never been to the Museum of Natural History.
W: Neither have I. When I was a child, I used to go to the Museum of Art.
M: I've been there several times. Twice with children.
W: Well, I have an idea. Next weekend, we go to the Museum of Natural History.
M: Ok, that's really a very nice idea.

Lillehammer's opening ceremonies featured a giant Olympic Torch burning biogas produced by rotting vegetation. During construction, builders were threatened with 7,500 fines for felling trees unnecessarily. Rare trees were carefully transplanted from hillsides. Food is being served on potato-based plates that will be fed, in turn, to pigs. Smoking has been banned outdoors as well as in, with enforcement by polite requests.
Environmentalists have declared partial victory, though Coca-Cola' s plan to decorate the town with banners has been scaled back, there are still too many billboards for strict green tastes. Perhaps, but after the Games, athlete housing will be converted into vacation homes or shipped to the northlands for student dormitories. Bullets will be plucked from targets and recycled to keep the lead from poisoning ground water. And these tricks won' t be forgotten. Embarrassed by environmental protests, the I. O.C. claims that green awareness is not entrenched—along with sport and culture—as a permanent dimension of the Olympic Charter. Indeed, Sydney was successful in becoming host for the 2000 Summer Games in part on the strength of its endorsement from Greenpeace. Aspiring host cities are picking up the code. Salt Lake City, bidding for the 2002 Games, may opt to use the bobsled nm that Calgary built for the '00 Games. After that, who could deny that recycling is an Olympic movement?
Which of the following countries has not paid enough attention to the "green" issues?
A.Norway.
B.France.
C.America.
D.Australia.
Did you know that there are more insects in the world than any other kind of animal? They fly and hop and crawl and dig. Some insects, the ants, build hills and cities of their own. Insects called silk worms spin silk. Bees make honey. And crickets(蟋蟀) make music with their feet.
Lots of insects grow up in a curious way. When they are little, they look like tiny worms, and most of their lives are spent in just growing. Mosquitoes(蚊子) start this way, and so do beetles(甲虫) and flies, ants and bees. Some caterpillars (毛虫) grow into butterflies. Other wormlike wriggling (蠕动) things become moths (蛾). So all insects do not look the same. Worms in fruit are insects. So are caterpillars and potato beetles, flies and moths.
The things that some insects do are helpful to people. They spin silk and make honey and help the flowers to make seeds. Some insects are pests. They bite and sting (叮) and eat our plants and clothes, food and even furniture. Insects are everywhere.
Insects live ______.
A.in bushes
B.in the ground
C.on some animals
D.all of the above
A.The children are too young to benefit from city life.
B.Even adults themselves cannot go everywhere in the city.
C.There is a lot to see and do for children and adults.
D.There isn"t a lot to see and do for children.

However, in reality, there are lots of things we can do to stop, or at least to reduce it.
Plant a tree. Trees "(6)" carbon dioxide, but only as long as they're living.
Install low-flow shower heads and faucets. You'll use less than half the water without(7).
Buy energy-efficient electronics and appliances. Then, turn them off when they're not in use.
Reduce! Reuse! Recycle! Recycling a stack of newspapers only(8)will save a good sized tree.
Mount a local(9)against global warming Educate your community about how to cut greenhouse gas pollution. Support measures at the national and local levels that increase energy efficiency, and that(10)the use of clean, renewable solar and wind technology.
