It’s never too late to right your wrongs, big or small.

Working as hard as I had been over the years, I had become disconnected from（失去聯(lián)系的）the people who mattered most to me. I decided to spend a year reconnecting with my friends and relatives and making amends(補償). I devoted myself to caring for what I called “my unfinished business”, which has helped me become a more attentive husband, father, son and friend —and a happier, more energetic person.

Now that I’ve had a good opportunity to revisit my past mistakes—and experience the rewards of fixing them—I’d like to share some of the lessons I have learned:

Have you lost touch with people who were important to you? Are there things you’ve done or not done that are in front of you? Are there people in your life you don’t know how much they meant to you? List your unfinished business and take action to deal with it.

Instead of trying to put an end to the cold war dividing your family, begin with a small thing you can control. Apologize to your brother for not attending his Super Bowl party. Respond to an e-mail you should have answered a week ago. Write a note or make a call.

No matter what the wrong is, the most important thing in making it right is your sincerity. If you reach out with a genuine (真誠的)heart, your friends will be glad to hear from you again.

This is the key to learning and growing. Keep a journal, or summarize what you’ve learned in e-mails to friends. The difficulty we face in dealing with our unfinished business can seem impossibly big, but the first step to clearing them can be simple: Again, write a note or make a phone call .Once you discover your fears and get over them, you’ll become a more complete and pleased person.

Topic: 1 ______too late to right your wrongs

Introduction

Have you been disconnected from the people who mattered most to you just because of your hard 2__________?

Be sincere

Sincerity is the 8__________ to improving the relationship. To get in 9__________ with your friends again, you should reach out with your true heart.

Reflect on your experience

To clear the problems, the first step is simply 10__________ a note or making a phone call.

The hole in the Earth’s ozone layer(臭氧層) has until now protected Antarctic from the worst effects of global warming, but scientists have warned that as the hole closes up in the next few decades, temperatures on the continent could rise by around 3℃ on average, with melting ice contributing to a global sea level increase of up to 1.4 meters.

In the past decades the western Antarctic has seen rapid ice loss as the world has warmed, but the other parts of the continent have, paradoxically, been cooling, resulting in a 10% increase in ice in the seas around the region. This is because the hole in the ozone layer has increased cold winds in Antarctic, making much of the continent surface colder than usual.

But now that the gases that cause the ozone hole have been banned, scientists expect the hole to repair itself within the next 50 to 60 years. By then the cooling effect will have faded out and the Antarctic will face the full impact of global warming. This means an increase in average air temperatures of around 3℃ and a reduction in sea ice by around a third.

The biggest threat to the continent comes from warming seas. Robert Johnson, a scientist who monitors Antarctic ice sheets, said, “The ice sheets in Antarctic are hundreds of meters thick. But once warm ocean waters start flowing underneath, the ice will begin thinning and could break up very quickly.” Thinning ice sheets cause ice to break away from the continent and to melt even faster. Escaping ice from western Antarctic has already resulted in a 10% rise in global sea level in recent decades.

Johnson believes that international action to reduce global warming is required immediately or it may be too late. “Everything is connected——Antarctic may be a long way away but it is an important part of the Earth’s system,” said Johnson. “It contains 90% of the world’s ice, 70% of the world’s fresh water and that is enough, if it melts completely, to raise sea levels by 63 meters.”

Even in a worse-case situation scientists don’t expect the ice to entirely disappear, but predict that, because of the melting ice sheets, average sea level rise will be around 1.4 meters higher by the end of the century.

1.

The underlined word “paradoxically” (in paragraph 2) most probably means “      ”.

A. rapidly         B. generally        C. contradictorily        D. apparently

2.

What is the effect of the hole in the ozone layer on Antarctic?

A. It is causing the ice to melt faster.

B. It is making much of the continent colder.

C. It is making the effects of global warming in the region worse.

D. It is reducing the amount of water in Antarctic.

3.

 What do scientists think is the biggest danger facing Antarctic?

A. Rising sea levels.                  B. Warming sea water temperature.

C. Water pollution.                   D. Growing ice sheets.

4.

 Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Antarctic is currently experiencing the full effects of global warming.

B. The average temperature has increased by 3℃ in recent decades.

C. Antarctic contains most of the world’s fresh water.

D. Ten percent of Antarctic’s ice has already been lost.

Federal regulators Wednesday approved a plan to create a nationwide emergency alert (警報) system using text messages delivered to cell phones.

Text messages have exploded in popularity in recent years, particularly among young people. The wireless industry’s trade association, CTIA, estimates (估計) more than 48 billions text messages are sent each month.

The plan comes from the Warning Alter and Response Network Act, a 2006 federal law that requires improvement to the nation’s emergency alter system. The act tasked the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with coming up with new ways to alter the public about emergencies.

“The ability to deliver accurate and timely warning and alters through cell phone and other mobile services is an important next step in our efforts to help ensure that the American public has the information they need to take action to protect themselves and their families before, and during, disasters and other emergencies,” FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said following approval of the plan.

Participation in the alter system by carriers — telecommunication companies — is voluntary, but it has received solid support from the wireless industry.

The program would be optional for cell phone users. They also may not be charged for receiving alters.

There would be three types of messages, according to the rules.

The first would be a national alter from the president, likely involving  a terrorists attack or natural disaster. The second would involve “approaching threats,” which could include natural disasters like hurricanes or storms or even university shootings. The third would be reserved for child abduction (綁架)emergencies, or so-called Amber Alerts.

The service could be in place by 2010.

1.What is the purpose of the approval plan?

A．To warn people of emergencies via message.

B．To popularize the use of cell phone.

C．To estimate the monthly number of messages.

D．To promote the wireless industry.

2. The improvement to the present system is in the charge of ______.

A. CTLA.   B. the Warning Alert and Response Network

C. FCC    D. federal regulators

3.The carriers’ participation in the system is determined by _______.

A．the US federal government

B．mobile phone users

C．the carriers themselves

D．the law of the United States

4.Which of the following is true of cell phone users?

They must accept the alert service. 

B. They may enjoy the alert service for free.

C. They must send the alerts to others.

D. They may choose the types of messages.

5.An alert message will NOT be sent if __________.

A. a child loses his way         B. a university shooting happens

C. a natural disaster happens   D, a terrorist attack occurs

6. Which of the following would be the best title for the test?

A．Cell Phone Alerts Protecting Students

B．Cell Phone Alerts by Wireless Industry

C．Cell Phone Alerts Natural Disasters

D．Cell Phone Alerts Coming Soon
