      It's true that quite a few most respected scientific  authorities have confirmed that the world is
becoming hotter and hotter. There's also strong evidence that humans are contributing to the warming.
Countless recent reports have proved the same thing. For instance, a 2010 summary about the climate
science by the Royal Society noted that:"The global warming over the last half－century has been caused mainly by human activity."
      You may not believe that humans could change the planet's climate, but the basic science is well
understood. Each year, billions of tons of greenhouse gases are released into the atmosphere because of
human activity. As has been known for years, these gaseshold heat that would otherwise escape to space, wrapping the planet in an invisible(看不見的) blanket.
       Of course, the earth's climate has always been changing due to "natural" factors such as volcanic
eruption (熔化) or changes in solar, or cycles concerning the Earth's going around the sun. According to
the scientific research, however, the warming observed by now matches the pattern of warming we would expect from a build－up of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere－not the warming we would expect from
other possible causes.
       Even if scientists did discover another reasonable explanation for the warming recorded so far, that
would give birth to a difficult question. As Robert Henson puts it: "If some newly discovered factor is to
blame for the climate change, then why aren't carbon dioxide and the other greenhouse gases producing
the warming that basic physics tells us they should be?"
     The only way to prove with 100% certainty that humans are responsible for global warming would be
to run an experiment with two identical Earths－one with human influence and one without. That obviously isn't possible, and so most scientists are careful not to state human influence as an absolute certainty.

1. In most scientists' opinion, the global warming is mainly caused by________.

A. solar activity
B. volcanic activity
C. natural factors
D. human factors

2. The text is developed by________.

A. giving typical examples
B. following the order of space
C. analyzing a theory and arguing it
D. comparing and finding differences

3. The underline word "identical" in the last paragraph probably means________.

A. totally different
B. exactly the same
C. extremely important
D. partly independent

4. Which of the following can be the best title?

A. Are All the Scientists Really Scientific?
B. Where Is Global Warming Leading Us to?
C. Are Humans Definitely Causing Global Warming?
D. What's Relation of Global Warming and Greenhouse Gases?

It was a very hot summer Sunday. Most of the neighbors were indoors with air-conditioners and color TVs going on. Suddenly, there was a power failure. After about half an hour, most houses had lost their pleasing coolness and people began to come outdoors in search for a gentle breeze. Before long, everyone was sharing all kinds of soft drinks and iced tea or coffee. Food began to appear, someone brought some small tables, and a natural block party developed.

It is time for students to sell such things as chocolate bars and greeting cards to raise money for their school, class or club. It is inevitable that they will knock on your door and you will easily hand ever your cash for overpriced items that you really do not want. That is okay, though, because there are many reasons why children should be allowed to raise money for their schools and clubs.
Fundraising(自籌資金) is a great way to help children learn social skills. It is not easy to go up to a complete stranger and ask them for their money. They have to nicely ask for help, show the interested buyer what they have to offer and explain how it will help them in school. If someone refuses to buy an item, that child has to take the failure in stride（從容處理）, and that is a learning lesson as well.
Students can learn how to deal with money by fundraising. Of course, it might seem safer for us to take charge of our children’s earnings from their fundraising before it is turned in to the school. However, by making them keep track of it, count it, and make sure everyone pays the right amount, they are learning an important lesson. Dealing with money is important to know about when they are older.
Fundraising helps improve their schools. It is the child’s school. They have to learn there and grow there. Why not let them help in making it a better place? When one of our local schools lacked funding for sports, the students and parents joined hands to raise that money needed. When they succeeded, they felt they accomplished something important.
Fundraising allows for more life experiences for the child. Most fundraising is done for individual classes and clubs. The raised money is used towards things like parties, trips. The children receive the rewards for their hard work at raising the money. Without fundraising, these field trips and special school memories would be missed.
In a word, fundraising helps children a lot in many ways.
