Yu might think that glbal warming means nthing mre than a rise in the wrld's temperature.But rising sea levels caused by it have resulted in the first evacuatin(撤离)f an island natin and the citizens f Tuvalu will have t leave their hmeland.

Paani Laupepa，a Tuvaluan gvernment fficial，reprted t the Earth Plicy Institute that the natin has suffered an unusually high number f fierce strms in the past ten years.Many scientists cnnect higher surface water temperatures resulting frm glbal warming t greater and mre damaging strms.
Laupepa expressed dissatisfactin with the United States fr refusing t sign the Kyt Prtcl，an internatinal agreement calling fr industrialized natins t reduce their greenhuse gas emissins(导致温室效应的气体排放)，which are a main cause f glbal warming.“By refusing t sign the agreement，the US has effectively taken away the freedm f future generatins f Tuvaluans t live where their frefathers have lived fr thusands f years.”Laupepa tld the BBC.
Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand t allw the gradual mve f its peple t bth cuntries.

Mre than 10% f all plants and animals will disappear frm the earth.It is t late t save many plants and animals because f the greenhuse gases that are already in the atmsphere.But the scientists say if we cntrl greenhuse gases nw，we can save many mre plants and animals frm disappearing.
The scientists studied sme areas f the wrld with very rich bilgy.These areas were Eurpe，Australia，Central and Suth America，and Suth Africa.Their studies shwed that species living in muntainus areas had a better chance f survival because they culd mve uphill t get cler.In flat areas，such as deserts，plants and animals wuld have t mve very lng distances t get cler，s they are in great danger f dying ut.The scientists fund many surprising things.Fr example，they fund that half f the 24 species f butterfly they studied in Australia wuld sn disappear.

Ⅱ.概要写作
阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Mst peple arund the wrld are right­handed.This fact als seems t have held true thrughut histry.In 1977，scientists studied wrks f art made at varius times in histry.Mst f the peple shwn in these wrks f art are right­handed，s scientists guessed that right­handedness has always been cmmn.But what d Lenard da Vinci，Marie Curie，and Albert Einstein have in cmmn？They were all left­handed，alng with ther famus peple including Brad Pitt，Prince William，and Barack Obama.In fact，an estimated 13 percent f the wrld's ppulatin may be left­handed.
Many researchers claim t have fund relatinships between left­handedness and varius physical and mental characteristics，such as blnd hair，blue eyes，and sleep difficulties.Other studies have fund a higher­than­nrmal level f left­handed peple in certain ccupatins(职业)，including prfessinal baseball players，architects，as well as prisners.Hwever，sme f these cnnectins are very weak，and thers have nt been prven.
What makes a persn becme right­handed rather than left­handed？One simple idea suggests that peple nrmally get right­handedness frm their parents.Studies have fund that tw right­handed parents have nly a 9.5­percent chance f having a left­handed child，while tw left­handed parents have a 26­percent chance f having a left­handed child.Anther cmmn thery is that left­handed peple suffer mild brain damage during birth，which makes them left­handed.
Whatever the reasns behind it，peple's attitudes tward left­handedness have changed a lt ver the years.Statistics shw that althugh 13 percent f yung peple are left­handed，nly six percent f the elderly are left­handed.Left­handed children used t be punished until they began using their right hand like ther children，but tday peple wh are left­handed are n lnger lked dwn n nr are they cnsidered abnrmal.Fr mst peple tday，either case is perfectly acceptable.There are even a number f shps nw selling prducts fr left­handed peple，such as left­handed can peners，guitars，and even a left­handed camera.

Pride and Prejudice (Excerpt)
The Bennets' new neighbur
It is a truth well knwn t all the wrld that an unmarried man in pssessin f a large frtune must be in need f a wife.And when such a man mves int a neighburhd，even if nthing is knwn abut his feelings r pinins，this truth is s clear t the surrunding families，that they think f him immediately as the future husband f ne r ther f their daughters.
“My dear Mr.Bennet，” said Mrs Bennet t her husband ne day，“have yu heard that smene is ging t rent Netherfield Park at last？”
“N，Mrs Bennet，I haven't，” said her husband.
“Dn't yu want t knw wh is renting it？” cried Mrs Bennet impatiently.
“Yu want t tell me，and I dn't mind listening.”
Mrs Bennet needed n further encuragement.“Well，my dear，I hear that he's a very rich yung man frm the nrth f England.It seems he came t see Netherfield n Mnday and was s delighted with it that he arranged t rent it at nce.Of curse，it is the finest huse in the area，with the largest gardens.His servants will be here by the end f the week，and he will be arriving sn afterwards！”
“What is his name？” asked Mr.Bennet.
“Bingley.”
“Is he married r single？”
“Oh，single，my dear，f curse! A single man f large frtune—he has an incme f fur r five thusand punds a year.Hw wnderful fr ur girls！”
“Why? Hw can it affect them？” Mr.Bennet asked.
“My dear Mr.Bennet，” she replied，“hw can yu be s annying! Yu must realize I'm thinking f his marrying ne f ur daughters.”
“Is that his purpse in cming t the area？”
“His purpse? N，f curse nt.But it's very likely that he'll fall in lve with ne f them.And I want him t see the girls as sn as pssible，befre ur ther neighburs intrduce themselves.S yu must visit him as sn as he arrives.”
“I really dn't see why I shuld，” said Mr.Bennet.“Yu and the girls can visit him，r perhaps yu shuld send them by themselves.Yes，that might be better，as yu're as attractive as any f them，and Mr.Bingley might like yu best.”
“My dear，yu flatter me，” replied his wife，“I certainly have been called beautiful in the past，but I think a wman with five adult daughters shuld stp thinking f her wn ，I beg yu t visit him.Yu knw it's crrect fr the gentleman f the family t visit new neighburs first.I simply cannt take the girls t see him unless yu have already met him.”
“Surely yu wrry t much abut the rules f plite sciety.I'm sure Mr.Bingley will be delighted t see yu all.And I'll write him a few lines，which yu can give him，agreeing gladly t his marrying any f the girls，althugh I must especially recmmend my dear little Lizzy.”
“Oh n，Mr.Bennet！” gasped Mrs Bennet，hrrified.“Please dn't d that! And Lizzy is n better than the thers，althugh I knw she is yur favurite.”
“Our daughters are all very silly，ignrant girls，it's true.But at least Lizzy is a little mre intelligent than her sisters.”
“Mr.Bennet，hw can yu speak s unkindly f yur wn children? Oh dear，hw ill I feel! Have yu n pity fr me? Dn't yu realize hw I suffer？”
“Indeed，my dear，I've suffered with yu fr the last twenty three years.But I think yu will recver，and live t see many mre rich yung men cme int the neighburhd.”
傲慢与偏见(节选)
班纳特家的新邻居
家财万贯而又尚未婚配的男人一定需要一个贤内助，这是一条世界上人尽皆知的真理。当这样一位男人搬到了附近时，这条真理在邻居们心中就显得更加清楚，他们哪怕对他的感情或意见一无所知，也会马上把他当作他们哪个女儿未来的丈夫。
“亲爱的班纳特先生，”一天，班纳特夫人对她丈夫说，“你听说了吗？尼日斐庄园到底还是租出去了。”
“我还没听说，班纳特太太，”她丈夫说。
“难道你不想知道是谁要租吗？”班纳特太太不耐烦地嚷了起来。
“你要想告诉我，我也不妨听听。”
班纳特夫人不需要更多的鼓励就开腔了。“啊，亲爱的，我听说他是个阔少爷，英格兰北部人。好像是星期一来看了看尼日斐，十分喜欢，马上安排把它租了下来。当然，连宅子的花园都那么大，那确实是这一片最好的庄园。他的仆人周末到，他本人随后就到！”
“他叫什么名字？”班纳特先生问道。
“彬格莱。”
“结婚了还是单身？”
“啊，亲爱的，当然是单身！家财万贯的单身汉——他每年收入四五千镑呢。对咱家姑娘们来说真是再好不过了！”
“为什么？这跟姑娘们有什么关系？”班纳特先生问道。
“我亲爱的班纳特先生，”她回答道，“你怎么那么讨厌！你应该想到，我是在考虑他跟我们哪个姑娘结婚。”
“他搬到这儿住就是为了这个吗？”
“为这个？当然不是。可是真说不准他会爱上我们哪个姑娘。我想尽早让他见见姑娘们，要赶在其他邻居自我介绍之前。所以，他一来你就得去拜访他一下。”
“我真是不明白为什么要去拜访他，”班纳特先生说，“你可以和姑娘们去，或者你让她们自己去。对，还是让她们自己去好，你长得那么迷人，比她们哪个都不逊色，说不定彬格莱先生会看上你呢。”
“亲爱的，你太夸奖我了，”他妻子答道，“过去人们当然说我漂亮，可是我觉得，一个女人家，五个女儿都长大成人了，不应该再老想自己漂亮不漂亮。班纳特先生，我求求你，还是去拜访他一下吧。你知道，来了新邻居，家里的男人先去拜访一下是应该的。你如果不先见见他，我怎么好带着姑娘们去呢？”
“你对文明社会的条条框框真是考虑得太多了。我相信彬格莱先生会很高兴见到你们几个的。对了，我给他写几句话，你可以捎过去，就说他随便娶哪个姑娘，我都很乐意。不过，我得特别推荐我的小丽萃。”
“哦，不，班纳特先生！”班纳特太太倒抽口气，吓坏了。“别那样！再说，丽萃也不比其他几个好，不过我知道你偏爱她。”
“我们几个姑娘都很蠢，很无知，这是真的。可是，丽萃至少还比她几个姐妹聪明点儿。”
“班纳特先生，你怎么能这样无情地说自己的亲生女儿呢？哦。亲爱的，我难受极了！你一点儿也不心疼我吗？你没想到我多难受吗？”
“怎么没想到，亲爱的，我跟着你难受了23年了。不过我想你会恢复过来的，会在有生之年看到更多的阔少爷来和我们做邻居。”
