2、because the glass traps the heat from the sun and keeps it from escaping.This makes the greenhouse heat up and so the plants can grow throughout the cold period.3In the atmosphere surrounding the earth there are gases，which are called“greenhouse gases”， including carbon dioxide，methane(甲烷，沼氣) and wa

15、1氏度。這個(gè)數(shù)值對(duì)你我來(lái)說(shuō)很可能是無(wú)所謂的，但是跟其他自然變化相比較而言，這卻是一種快速的增長(zhǎng)。那么，這種溫度的增長(zhǎng)是怎么產(chǎn)生的呢？會(huì)產(chǎn)生什么影響呢？“關(guān)愛(ài)地球”組織的索菲阿姆斯特朗就在探究這些問(wèn)題。 毫無(wú)疑問(wèn)，地球是在變暖(見(jiàn)圖一)，而地球變暖正是人類(lèi)活動(dòng)導(dǎo)致的，并非是一種無(wú)規(guī)律的自然現(xiàn)象。圖1：18602000年長(zhǎng)期平均溫度差所有的科學(xué)家都贊同這種觀點(diǎn)：人們?yōu)榱松a(chǎn)能量而燃燒化石燃料(如煤、天然氣和石油等)，從而引起了地球溫度的升高。這個(gè)升溫過(guò)程的一些副產(chǎn)品就叫做“溫室”氣體，其中最重要的就是二氧化碳。賈尼絲福斯特博士解釋說(shuō)：“有一種科學(xué)家稱(chēng)之為溫室效應(yīng)的自然現(xiàn)象。這種現(xiàn)象的發(fā)生是因?yàn)樵诖?/p>

16、氣層中少量的氣體(如二氧化碳、甲烷、水蒸汽等)吸收太陽(yáng)的熱量，從而使地球變暖。如果沒(méi)有這種溫室效應(yīng)，地球的溫度將比現(xiàn)在的溫度還要低33攝氏度左右。因此，我們需要這些氣體。當(dāng)我們的大氣層中增加了大量額外的二氧化碳時(shí)，問(wèn)題就來(lái)了。這意味著更多的熱量要被困在大氣層中，從而引起全球溫度上升?！?我們知道，在過(guò)去100150年期間，二氧化碳的含量急劇增加了。有一位名叫查爾斯基林的科學(xué)家曾經(jīng)把19571997年期間大氣層中二氧化碳的含量作了精確的統(tǒng)計(jì)。他發(fā)現(xiàn)，在這些年里，大氣層中的二氧化碳含量從315/1000 000上升到370/1000 000。(見(jiàn)圖二) 所有科學(xué)家都接受這個(gè)數(shù)據(jù)。他們還贊同下述觀點(diǎn)

17、，正是由于越來(lái)越多地燃燒化石燃料導(dǎo)致了二氧化碳的增加。那么氣溫會(huì)升多高？福斯特博士說(shuō)，在今后的100年里，全球變暖的量可能低到11.5攝氏度，但是也有可能會(huì)高達(dá)5攝氏度。圖2：19571997年大氣中的二氧化碳含量 然而，科學(xué)家們?cè)趯?duì)待升溫的態(tài)度上卻是大不相同的。一方面，福斯特博士認(rèn)為氣溫升高5度的趨勢(shì)可能是一場(chǎng)大災(zāi)難。她說(shuō)：“對(duì)于未來(lái)的氣候，我們不可能作出精確的預(yù)測(cè)，但是那時(shí)的天氣可能是很糟糕的。”同意她的觀點(diǎn)的其他科學(xué)家認(rèn)為，全球變暖會(huì)導(dǎo)致海平面上升好幾米；也有人預(yù)言會(huì)出現(xiàn)嚴(yán)重的風(fēng)暴、洪澇、干旱、饑荒、疫病和物種的滅絕。另一方面，還有一些人，像科學(xué)家喬治漢布利，反對(duì)上面的觀點(diǎn)，他們認(rèn)為我們

18、不必?fù)?dān)心空氣中會(huì)有高含量的二氧化碳。他們預(yù)言說(shuō)，變暖的情況不會(huì)很?chē)?yán)重，對(duì)環(huán)境的影響也不會(huì)太壞。漢布利實(shí)際上是這樣說(shuō)的：“二氧化碳含量的增加實(shí)際上是件好事。它使植物生長(zhǎng)更快，莊稼產(chǎn)量更高，還會(huì)促進(jìn)動(dòng)物的生長(zhǎng)所有這些都能改善人類(lèi)的生活。” 溫室氣體繼續(xù)在大氣中聚集。即使我們開(kāi)始減少二氧化碳和其他溫室氣體的含量，在(未來(lái))幾十年或幾個(gè)世紀(jì)內(nèi)，氣候仍會(huì)持續(xù)轉(zhuǎn)暖。沒(méi)有人知道全球變暖會(huì)帶來(lái)什么樣的影響。這是不是意味著我們不必采取任何措施呢？還是說(shuō)，這樣不采取任何措施危險(xiǎn)性會(huì)很大呢？二、將下列單詞或詞組譯成英語(yǔ)然后參閱Unit 4的詞匯表自主勘誤。1消費(fèi)，消耗 v_2圖表 n_3現(xiàn)象 n_4資料，數(shù)據(jù) n_5趨勢(shì) n_6大災(zāi)難 n_7洪水 n_8溫和的 adj._9結(jié)果，后果 n_1consume2.graph3.phenomenon4.data5.tend6.catastrophe7.flood8.mild9.consequence10陳述，說(shuō)明 v_11種類(lèi)，范圍 n_12發(fā)生，造成_13同意，贊成，訂閱_14大量的_15上升，增長(zhǎng)_16導(dǎo)致_17反對(duì)_18即使_e about13.subscribe to14.quantities of15.go up16.result in17.be opposed to18.even if
