resulted in the first evacuation（撤离）of an island nationthe citizens of tuvalu will have to leave their homeland.during the 20th century ,sea level rose 812 inches. as a result .tuvalu has experienced lowland flooding of salt water which has polluted the countrys drinking water.paani laupepa , a tuvaluan government official ,reported to the earth policy institute that the nation suffered an unusaually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years .many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damagingtorms.laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the united states for refusing to sign the kyoto protocol, an international agreement calling for industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions（导致温室效应的气体排放）,which are a main cause of global warming . “by refusing to sign the agreement ,the us has effectively taken away the freedom of future generations of tuvaluans to live where

the station. he was looking for the girl whose heart he knew, but whose face he didnt, the girl with the rose. when reading a book in a florida library a year before, john became interested not in the contents of the book, but in the notes penciled in the margin(空白处). the handwriting reflected a thoughtful soul and beautiful mind. he discovered the former owners name in the front of the book: miss hollis maynell. he located her address and wrote a letter introducing himself. the next day he was shipped overseas to serve in the army. during the next year, they grew to know each other through the mail and their friendship developed. john requested a photograph, but she refused, saying if he really cared, it wouldnt matter what she looked like. when the day finally came for him to return home, their first meeting was suggested7:00 p.m. at the grand central station in new york. she wrote, youll recognize me by the red rose i wear on my coat. so now john was in the station to meet the girl with a rose. as a pretty and slim girl in green came over, john noticed her blue eyes like flowers in spring. he walked directly towards her, entirely forgetting she was not wearing a rose. as john came closer to her, he saw another woman with a red rose stood nearby. well past 40, this woman had graying hair done under a worn hat. seeing the girl in green walk quickly away, john felt as if he were split(劈开) in two. he desired to follow that girl, but longed for the woman whose spirit had truly companioned and supported him. the woman looked gentle and sensible. john went to her, saying, im captain john blanchard. you must be miss maynell. i am glad to meet you here. may i take you to dinner? she replied with a smile, i dont know what this is about. but the lady in green who just went by, begged me to wear this rose on my coat. she said if you asked me out to dinner, id tell you she is waiting for you in the big restaurant across the street. she said it was some kind of test!29.

the road? to get to the other side.most people know this joke. but recently, some people have been much more concerned with how the grizzly bear(大灰熊) and mountain lion can cross the road. millions of animals die each year on u.s. roads, the federal highway administration reports. in fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the u.s. today. the main reason? roadkill. ecopassages may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. they are paths both over and under roads. these ecopassages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid human conflicts, said jodi hilty of the wildlife conservation society. but do animals actually use the ecopassages? the answer is yes. paul beier of northern arizona university found foot marks left by mountain lions on an ecopassage that went under a highway. this showed that the lion used the passage. builders of some ecopassages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. animals seem to be catching on. animals as different as salamanders(火蜥蜴)and grizzly bears are using the bridges and underpasses. the next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around. you might see an animal overpass!33. the writer uses the example of “ocelots” to show that_.awild animals have become more dangerousbthe driving conditions have improved greatlycthe measure for protecting wildlife fails to work dan increasing number of animals are killed in road accidents 34. from the news story, we know an ecopassage is_.aan underground path for cars
