when make a wish connecticut an organization that creates life changing wishes for children with critical illnesses heard about brody s request to play outside they immediately jumped into action it s the most simple most sweet wish just to play outside but it seems to be the most difficult to realize said debbie artinian the manager of make a wish connecticut artinian and her team determined that a temperature controlled tent outside brody s home where he could play and not be in the sun would be the best option but they had to find a tent that could stand weather conditions like wind and snow and had the right material to block all uv rays luckily artinian found a company based in the united kingdom that could design and make the 4 tent make a wish connecticut learnt that brody loves the

experience may result in success c on december 16 in 1773 a group of massachusetts colonists made themselves look like mohawk indians and boarded three british tea ships in boston harbor they threw

india company by greatly lowering its tea tax and giving it a virtual monopoly 垄断 on the american tea trade the low tax allowed the company to sell its tea even more cheaply than that secretly shipped into america by dutch traders many colonists viewed the act as yet another example of britain s taxation tyranny 专制 in most american ports the groups known as the sons of liberty were formed they scared off british tea carrying ships by threatening their captains with tarring 焦油 or worse however when three tea ships the dartmouth the eleanor and the beaver arrived in boston harbor and the colonists demanded that the tea be returned to england thomas hutchinson the british appointed governor of massachusetts refused to permit the ships to leave patriot leader samuel adams organized the now famous tea party with about 60 members of the sons of liberty the british tea thrown into boston harbor on the night of december 16 was worth more than 700 000 dollars in today s money the british government outraged by the event made the coercive acts called the intolerable acts by the colonists in 1774 the coercive acts closed boston to merchant shipping established formal british military rule in massachusetts protected british officials from criminal prosecution 起诉 in america and required colonists to quarter british troops the colonists called the first 5 continental congress to consider a united american fight against the british the first continental congress agreed on july 4 1776 the second continental congress officially adopted the united states declaration of independence then the war between britain and america began in october 1781 the last major battle of the revolution ended in 1783 the united states formally became a free and independent nation 28 we

rainforest will collapse and disappear alarmingly quickly once a crucial tipping point is reached according to calculations based on real world data writing in nature communications researchers from bangor university southampton university and the university of london reveal the speed at which ecosystems of different sizes will disappear once they have reached a point beyond which they collapse transforming into an alternative ecosystem for example once the point of no return is reached the amazon rainforest could shift to a savannah type 稀树草原型 ecosystem with a mix of trees and grass within 50 years according to the research some scientists argue that many ecosystems are currently teetering 摇晃 on the edge of a cliff with the fires and destruction of both the amazon and australian rainforests unfortunately what our paper reveals is that humanity needs to prepare for changes far sooner than expected says joint lead author dr simon willcock of bangor university these rapid changes to the world s largest and most typical ecosystems would impact the benefits which they provide us with including everything from food and materials to the oxygen and water we need for life ecosystems made up of a number of interacting species rather than those dominated by one single species may be more stable and take longer to shift to alternative ecosystem states these ecosystems provide opportunities to mitigate or manage the worst effects say the authors for example elephants are termed a key stone species as they have a disproportionately 不成比例地 large impact on the landscape pushing over trees but also dispersing seeds over large distances the authors state that the loss of key stone species such as this would lead to a rapid and dramatic change in the landscape within our lifetime this is yet another strong argument to avoid degrading our planet s ecosystems we need to do more to conserve biodiversity says dr gregory cooper university of london 6 32 what is the phenomenon described in paragraph 2 a many ecosystems are in danger currently b large ecosystems have reached a tipping point c a new ecosystem will appear in the amazon forest d ecosystems are changed mainly due to natural disasters 33 what is paragraph 3 mainly about a the benefits of large ecosystems b the ways to prepare for the changes c the introduction to typical ecosystems d the influences of ecosystems changes on humanity 34 which of the following best explains mitigate in the last paragraph a cause b ease c increase d judge 35 why does the author mention elephants in the passage a to prove the destructive power of elephants b to present the great influences of large animals c to explain the reason for the reducing grassland d to stress the importance of conserving biodiversity 第二节 共第二节 共 5 小题小题 每小题每小题 2 分 满分分 满分 10 分 分 how to best protect your important files should you rely on one of the many cloud services available today the answer is yes here s four reasons
