trying to make the deserts into good land again. they want to bring water to the deserts so that people can live and grow food there.they are learning a lot about the deserts，but more and more of the earth is becoming desert all the time.scientists may not be able to change the desert in time.why is more and more land becoming desert？scientists think that people make deserts.people are doing bad things to the earth.for example，scientists tell the people how important plants are for stopping land becoming desert，but people dont pay enough attention to the green plants.some places on the earth dont get much rain.but they still dont become deserts.this is because some green plants are growing there.small green plants and grass are very important to dry places.plants dont let the sun make the earth even drier.plants dont let the wind blow the soil away.when a bit of rain falls，the plants hold the water.without plants，the land can become desert more easily. the present fact is that green plants on the earth are fewer and fewer.if there were no green plants on the earth，the whole earth would become desert.36deserts _.anever have any plants or animals in them beforebcan all be turned

that _.aplants can keep dry land from becoming desertbit is good to get rid of the grass in the desertscall places without much rain will become desertsdit is better for the dry land to grow grass than to grow treesbthe arctic ices decline(减少)in august,2008 has left the region with just a little more ice than in 2007，when ice hit the lowest levels on record，scientists say.this week the ice has already started freezing back up for winter，but the rapid loss in august points to longterm，significant declines in perennialor yearroundice cover.“i expected that the perennial ice this year would be similar to that of 2005 and 2006，”said josefino comiso of nasas goddard space flight center in grecnbelt，maryland.“but in august，it started going at a much more rapid rate.it almost got to as low as 2007，”he said.the ice cover at the end of last summer，comiso said，was 38 percent less than average and 27 percent less than the previous lowest perennial ice cover.as temperatures rise due to global warming，arctic ice is getting thinner，which makes it easier to meltespecially in warmer water.the oldest ice can be meters thick，having grown over the course of many years.thick ice that melts or floats away into the warmer atlantic in summer is replaced by thin ice，formed over the course of one winter，and this thin ice melts even quicker the following summer，he explained.meanwhile，arctic ocean water that used to be covered by icewhich reflects (反射)much of the light and warmth of the sunnow takes in that solar energy，causing it to warm further.comiso noted that according to scientists in the field，arctic ice has been melting even faster from the bottom than it has from the top.this suggests that the warming of the arctic water is a more important factor affecting the decline of summer ice，he said.41in which year did arctic ice reduce the most?a2005.b2006.c2007. d2008.42according to the passage，all of the following are the results of the rise in temperatures except that

night.the way you feel during your waking hours hinges_on how well you sleep at night.then how could you sleep well？your daytime eating and exercise habits play a role in how well you sleep.its particularly important to watch what you put in your body in the hours leading up to your bedtime. stay away from big meals at night.try to make dinnertime earlier in the evening，and avoid heavy，rich foods within two hours of bed.fatty foods take a lot of work for your stomach to digest and may keep you up.also be cautious when it comes to acidic(酸的) foods in the evening，as they can cause stomach trouble and heartburn. avoid alcohol before bed.many people think that a nightcap before bed will help them sleep.while it may make you fall asleep faster，alcohol reduces your sleep quality，waking you

hours after drinking it！consider eliminating caffeine after lunch or cutting back your overall intake. avoid drinking too many liquids in the evening.drinking lots of water，juice，tea，or other fluids may result in frequent bathroom trips throughout the night. eat a light snack before bedtime.a light snack before bed can help promote sleep.it helps calm the brain and allow you to sleep better.for

wished that they had not accepted jacks dare.they liked camping，but not near this swamp.“so，” martin asked as they sat watching the hot coals. “how did this place get its name？”“are you sure you want to hear it? its a scary story，”warned jack.“of course！” cried out tom. “if there were anything to be scared of，you wouldnt have chosen this place！”“ok，but dont say i didnt warn you，” said jack, and he began his tale.“way back in time, a man called dennis tried to start a farm here. he built that cottage over there to live in. in those days, the area looked quite differentit was covered with tall trees and the swamp was a crystalclear river. after three hard years, dennis had cleared several fields and planted crops. he was so proud of his success that he refused to listen to advice.”“you are clearing too much land， warned one old man. the land is a living thing. it will hit back at you if you abuse it.”“silly fool， said dennis to himself. if i clear more land, i can grow more crops. ill become wealthier. hes just jealous！”“dennis continued to chop down trees. small animals that relied on them for food and shelter were destroyed. he was so eager to expand his farm that he did not notice the river flowing slowly towards his door. he did not notice salt seeping to the surface of the land. he did not notice swamp plants choking all the native plants.”“what happened？”martin asked. it was growing colder. he trembled, twisting his body closer to the fire.“the land hit backjust as the old man warned，”jack shrugged. “dennis disappeared. old folks around here believe that swamp plants moved up from the river and dragged him underwater. his body was never found.”“what a stupid story，” laughed tom. “plants cant.” before he had finished speaking, he screamed and fainted(晕倒). the other two boys jumped up with fright，staring at tom. suddenly, they burst out laughing. some green swamp ivy(常春藤) had covered toms face. it was a while before tom could appreciate the joke.51the
