Passage 4
Burning il, gas and cal — fuels that cme frm the remains f ancient plants and animals — releases carbn (碳) int Earth’s atmsphere, where it traps heat and changes the climate. That prcess has caused massive destructin and lss f life, and it will cntinue t d s. As a result, carbn is seen as a pllutant.
Hwever, Paul Hawken argues in his new bk Carbn: The Bk f Life that bth the thinking and the message f the climate mvement are wrng. ‌“Thse wh call carbn a pllutant shuld rethink what they are saying,” Hawken writes. ‌“Carbn is the building blck f life. Withut it, Earth wuld just be a lnely, dead rck.”
Hawken believes that treating carbn as a pllutant nt nly misses what has caused climate change in the first place, but als further separates peple frm the living wrld. “There is n climate crisis, but a crisis f human thinking and behavir that’s damaging the sil, wiping ut entire species, and changing the weather faster than peple can adapt,” he argues. “The warming atmsphere is a respnse, a teaching.”
Hawken’s bk is a lessn in what’s smetimes called “unlearning‌”, r letting g f ld assumptins, like the idea that nature is smething t fix r cntrl. Instead, it explres ways t repair a brken relatinship with the natural wrld by drawing inspiratin frm native cultures and new scientific discveries.
First f all, Hawken wants a change in hw peple talk abut the natural wrld. He describes the wrd “bidiversity” as “a bldless term”. Even terms like “nature” are nt prper fr Hawken. He pints ut that such terms wuld nly be needed if we are nt a part f the living wrld.
The gal f the bk is nt t map ut a plan fr saving Earth, but t rebuild the relatinship with it. “My cmmunity recently brke dwn a barrier under a bridge that had blcked the fish n their jurney up the stream t give birth. The lessn frm the prject is abut care,” Hawken writes. “That’s where we shuld start.”
10．Accrding t Paul Hawken, carbn shuld be treated as ________.
A．a plluting elementB．the result f burning fuels
C．a part f the living wrldD．the cause f climate change
11．What des Paul Hawken say abut “bidiversity” and ”nature‌“?
A．They are nt based n the latest discveries.
B．They are helpful in fighting climate changes.
C．They are nt easy fr the public t understand.
D．They are misleading and shuld be abandned.
12．What des Paul Hawken suggest peple d in his new bk?
A．“Unlearn” t c-exist with nature.B．Find ways t cntrl nature.
C．Return t traditinal ways f living.D．Fix the prblems scientifically.
13．Frm which is the text prbably taken?
A．A new bk.B．A bk review.
C．An advertisement.D．An envirnment reprt.
