Read the passage and choose the best answer to each question (10 points) WARNING ON GLOBAL WARMING Global warming could cause drought and possibly famine in China, the source of much of Hong Kong’s food, by 2050, a new report predicts. Hong Kong could also be at risk from flooding as sea level rose. The report recommends building sea-walls around low-lying areas such as the new port and airport reclamations. Published by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), the report, which includes work by members of the Chinese Academy of Meteorological Sciences, uses the most recent projections on climate change to point to a gloomy outlook for China. By 2050 about 30 to 40 percent of the country will experience changes in the type of vegetation it supports, with tropical and subtropical forest conditions shifting northward and hot desert conditions rising in the west where currently the desert is temperate. Crop - growing areas will expand but any benefit is expected to be negated by increased evaporation of moisture, making it too dry to grow crops such as rice. The growing reason also is expected to alter, becoming shorter in southern and central China, the mainland’s breadbasket. The rapid changes make it unlikely that plants could adapt. “China will produce smaller crops. In the central and northern areas, and the southern part, there will be decreased production because of water limitations,” Dr. Rik Leemans, one of the author of the report, said during a brief visit to the territory yesterday. Famine could result because of the demands of feeding the population - particularly if it grows - and the diminished productivity of the land. “It looks very difficult for the world as a whole,” he said. Global warming is caused by the burning of large amounts of fossil fuels, such as coal and oil, which release gases that trap heat in the atmosphere. World temperatures already have increased this century by about 0.6 degrees Celsius and are projected to rise by between 1.6 degrees and 3.8 degrees by 2100. Dr. Leemans said China’s reliance on coal - fired power for its industrial growth did not bode well for the world climate. “I think the political and economic powers in China are much greater than the environmental powers, and greenhouse gas emissions could accelerate,” Dr. Leemans said. “China is not taking the problem seriously yet, although it is trying to incorporate this kind of research to see what is going to happen.” The climate change report, which will be released tomorrow, focuses on China but Mr. David Melville of WWF - Hong Kong said some of the depressing scenarios could apply to the territory. Food supplies, for instance, could be affected by lower crop yields. “Maybe we could afford to import food from elsewhere but you have to keep in mind that the type of changes experienced in southern China will take place elsewhere as well,” he said. Sea levels could rise as glaciers melted and the higher temperatures expanded the size of the oceans, threatening much of developed Hong Kong which is built on reclaimed land. Current projections are that sea levels worldwide will rise by 15 to 90 centimeters by 2100, depending on whether action is taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. “Hong Kong has substantial areas built on reclaimed land and sea level rises could impact on that, not only on Chek Lap Kok but the West Kowloon Reclamation and the Central and Western Reclamation - the whole lot,” Mr. Melville said, adding that sea - walls would be needed. Depleted fresh water supplies would be another problem because increased evaporation would reduce levels. Mr. Melville said the general outlook could be helped if Hong Kong used water less wastefully and encouraged energy efficiency to reduce fuel - burning. He also called on the West to help China improve its efficiency. 1. Overall, what sort of picture is painted of the future effects of global warming? A. disastrous B. potentially disastrous C. relatively optimistic D. on balance things are going to be satisfactory 2. What is this passage?

It’s the last ten minutes of your yoga class, meditation time. “Imagine you’re a fluffy white cloud”, says the teacher. Your tummy rumbles–dinner soon, what to have? “The sky is clear and blue…, Pasta? Chips? Chips : You’re passing over a lake…” God, that woman’s snoring.

Over here if you manage to find a form that includes meditation, such as hatha yoga, and a teacher who is capable of leading you properly, you probably won’t be able to do it. You’ll get distracted 2. ………………. I used to think my failure to meditate was about having an over-active brain that goes tick – tick – tick from morning to night but apparently that’s just part of the Western psyche. “There’s something about our minds,” says Nicola Temporal, 3. …………. especially adapted for Western brains. “We want instant gratification and, if we don’t get it, we spiral off” We’re conditioned to control rather than accept, to think rather than to feel and so the process of letting go and experiencing the moment, which is central to meditation, is hard for us. But meditation is particularly good for us. At its simplest, meditation is about relaxation, 4. ……………., but it has deeper rewards as well. Advocates talk about knowing themselves better, of being more in touch with there instincts and intuitions, of being more at peace. Clear away some of the detritus and answers come more easily. “We live in our heads, which means we live 5. ……………”, says Ms Temporal. “Meditation helps you access who you are, what you really want and what your values are, and these things can help you live a more honest and more satisfying life” Fantastic, but how on earth do you do it? How do you even begin to switch your head off. A. and so we find it difficult B. by other people’s expectations C. how we can master yoga D. or fall asleep E. without the spiritual dimension F. which can be hard for us to understand G. which provides endless health benefits H. who teaches meditation Your answer 1……………… 2……………… 3……………… 4………………… 5………………… Question 5. Read the passage and do the tasks that follow. (10 pts) A. Besides the earth’s oceans, glacier ice is the largest source of water on earth. A glacier is a massive stream or sheet of ice that moves underneath itself under the influence of gravity. Some glaciers travel down mountains or valleys, while others spread across a large expanse of land. Heavily glaciated regions such as Greenland and Antarctica are called continental glaciers. These two ice sheets encompass more than 95% of the earth’s glacial ice. The Greenland ice sheet is almost 10,000 feet thick in some areas, and the weight of this glacier is so heavy that much of the region has been depressed below sea level. Smaller glaciers that occur at higher elevations are called alpine or valley glaciers. Another way of classifying glaciers is in terms of their internal temperature. In temperate glaciers, the ice within the glacier is near its melting point. Polar glaciers, in contrast, always maintain temperatures far below melting. B. The majority of the earth’s glaciers are located near the poles, though glaciers exist on all continents, including Africa and Oceania. The reason glaciers are generally formed in high alpine regions is that they require cold temperature throughout the year, in these areas where there is little opportunity for summer ablation (loss of mass), snow changes to compacted firm and then crystallized ice. During periods in which melting and evaporation exceed the amount of snowfall, glaciers will retreat rather than progress. While glaciers rely heavily on snowfall, other climatic conditions including freezing rain, avalanches and wind, contribute to their growth. One year of below average precipitation can stunt the growth of a glacier tremendously. With the rare 7 exception of surging glaciers, a common glacier flows about 10 inches per day 7 in the summer and 5 inches per day in the winter. The fastest glacial surge on record occurred in 1953, when the Kutiah Glacier in Pakistan grew more than 12 kilometers in three months. C. The weight and pressure of ice accumulation causes glacier movement. Glaciers move out from under themselves, via plastic deformation and basal slippage. First, the internal flow of ice crystals begins to spread outward and downward from the thickened snow pack also known as the zone of accumulation. Next, the ice along the ground surface begins to slip in the same direction. Seasonal thawing at the base of the glacier helps to facilitate this slippage. The middle of a glacier moves faster than the sides and bottom because there is no rock to cause friction. The upper part of a glacier rides on the ice below. As a glacier moves it carves out a U-shaped valley to a riverbed, but with much steeper walls and flatter bottom. D. Besides the extraordinary rivers of ice, glacial erosion creates other unique physical features in the landscape such as horns, fjords, hanging valleys, and cirques. Most of these landforms do not become visible until after glaciers have receded. Many are created by moraines, which occur at the sides and front of a glacier. Moraines are formed when material is picked up along the way and deposited in a new location. When many alpine glaciers occur on the same mountain, these moraines can create a horn. The matter horn, in the Swiss Alps is one of the most famous horns. Fjords, which are very common in Norway, are coastal valleys that fill with ocean water during a glacial retreat. Hanging valleys occur when two or more glacial valleys intersect at varying elevations. It is common for waterfalls to connect the higher and lower hanging valleys, such as in Yosemite National Park. A cirque is a large bowl- shaped valley that forms at the front of a glacier. Cirques often have a lip on their down slope that is deep enough to hold small lakes when the ice melts away. E. Glacier movement and shape shifting typically occur over hundreds of years. While presently about 10% of the earth land is covered with glaciers, it is believed that during the last Ice Age glaciers covered approximately 32% of the earth’s surface. In the past century, most glaciers have been retreating rather flowing forward. It is unknown whether this glacial activity is due to human impact or natural causes, but by studying glacier movement, and comparing climate and agricultural profiles over hundreds of years, glaciologists can begin to understand environmental issues such as global warming.
