This is

48、 exciting. Yet, on the other hand, competition breezes a pragmatic （实用主义的 ） attitude. People choose to learn things that are useful, and do things that are profitable.

This measures the amount of warming that can event

58、ually beexpected to follow a doubling in the atmospheric concentration of CO2（carbon dioxide）. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change（IPCC）, in its most recent summary of the science behind its predictions, published in 2007, estimated （评估）that, in present conditions, a doublingof CO2 would c
