Robert Downey Jr． is famous for being a beloved Hollywood actor， but now he is adding "robotics environmentalist" to his list of good qualities． Earlier this week， the Iron Man actor took to the stage at the Amazon Re： Mars conference in Las Vegas to announce the creation of his new foundation which will use nanotechnology（纳米技术） and robotics as a means of cleaning up the planet．
  　　Downey Jr． did not show many details on how the organization will begin its clean-up job， but a website went live shortly after the actor＇s announcement． As of right now， the website only includes a sign-up sheet for future newsletters and latest news， but Downey Jr． says that he will be spending the next 11 months working together with UN experts and building up the organization so the group can get to work by April 2020．
  　　After that， Downey Jr． says that "between robotics and nanotechnology we could probably clean up the planet noticeably， if not entirely， within a decade．" Downey Jr． also explained how his failure to look after the environment in the past is now inspiring him to take action， " I have this quiet sense of crisis （危机）， " he said， according to reporters． "I＇m a person who spends a lot of energy on things like plane trips， but I want to change．" Regardless of the actor＇s plan， Downey Jr＇s net worth is about ﹩81 million — more than enough to start tidying up the planet．

It was winter but people were everywhere in London at the weekend. They were in T-shirts or sandals （凉鞋）. Monday was another warm day, without a cloud in the sky, and in the late afternoon the light took on a magical, honey-coloured color. It brought to mind one of those summer evenings you experienced in childhood, when you＇d be in the park all day and your parents let you stay out until bedtime, and you felt like you were doing something deliciously naughty just by being there．
  　　It wasn＇t early summer： it was February. And the entire developed world has been attacking the global ecosystem （全球生态系统） for many years, and that＇s how we go into this pickle．
  　　We should try to hold on to this fact that this is not supposed to be happening. Less than a month ago, there was a video of extreme （ 极 端 的 ） cold weather coming out of Chicago. Water poured from cups immediately froze on its way to the ground. OK, that was on the other side of the world, and its temperature was -11℃ then．
  　　On Monday, though, the temperature hit 20.3℃ in Ceredigion, West Wales： the highest
  　　February temperature ever recorded in Britain and the first time the temperature had reached 20℃ in winter．
  　　This isn＇t good, is it？ The 10 hottest years on record have all happened within the past 20 years, the five hottest were the last five. Yet the beaches and the beer gardens fill up, while the papers describe the weather as wonderful. There were those who gave in to the heat wave a little too easily. They let themselves forget it was winter and found themselves, when the sun went down and the temperature dropped, suddenly shaking and unprepared for the cold. It feels uncomfortably like a symbol．
28.What does the author want to do in the first paragraph？
A.To introduce a beautiful summer．
B.To encourage kids to play outside．
C.To share his daily activities with us．
D.To describe the scene of a warm winter．
29.What does the underlined word pickle in Paragraph 2 mean？
A.Daily activity．
B.Unusual place．
C.Difficult situation．
D.Quick development．
30.Why is Chicago＇s weather mentioned？
A.To compare it with that of London．
B.To attract more people to Chicago．
C.To show it is well-known for an online video．
D.To encourage more people to post videos online．
31.What can we infer from the last paragraph？
A.The author hoped people stayed indoors．
B.The author worries about global warming．
C.The papers misled the public in weather reports．
D.The papers asked the public to prepare for the cold．
D
In the past 50 years， the amount of water in the open ocean with zero oxygen has gone up more than fourfold．In coastal water bodies，including river mouths and seas， low-oxygen sites have increased more than tenfold since 1950．Scientists expect oxygen to continue dropping even outside these zones as Earth warms．
  　　"Oxygen is fundamental to life in the Oceans，"said Denise Breitburg， a marine ecologist with the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center． "The decline in ocean oxygen ranks among the most serious effects of human activities on the Earth ＇s environment． Actually， it＇s a great loss to all the support services that rely on recreation and tourism， including hotels and restaurants and taxi drivers and everything else． The reverberations（严重影响） of unhealthy ecosystems in the ocean can be extensive．"
  　　In areas traditionally called "dead zones" ， like those in Chesapeake Bay and the Gulf of Mexico，oxygen plummets（大幅下跌） to so low levels that many animals die． As fish avoid these zones， their habitats become smaller and they＇re easier to be attacked or caught． But the problem goes far beyond "dead zones"． Even smaller oxygen decline can prevent growth in animals， hinder reproduction and lead to disease or even death． It also can cause the release of dangerous chemicals such as nitrous oxide，a greenhouse gas up to 300 times more powerful than carbon dioxide．While some animals can boom in "dead zones"，overall biodiversity falls．
  　　Climate change is the key criminal in the open ocean．Warming surface waters make it harder for oxygen to reach the inside of the ocean．Furthermore，as the ocean as a whole gets warmer，it holds less oxygen．In coastal waters， too much nutrient pollution from land creates algal blooms，which use up oxygen as they die and break down．
  　　People＇s livelihoods are also on the line，the scientists reported， especially in developing nations．Smaller fisheries（渔场）may be unable to relocate when low oxygen destroys their harvests or forces fish to move elsewhere．So we humans have to carry on a war now and win the war．
32. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about？
A.The ocean has been losing its oxygen．
B.The amount of sea water is increasing．
C.The coastal water bodies are dangerous．
D.The Earth becomes warmer and warmer．
33.What can we infer from Denise Breitburg＇s words？
A.Different oceans have different levels of oxygen．
B.The decline in ocean oxygen has great influences．
C.The future of tourism relies on the levels of ocean oxygen．
D.The decrease in ocean oxygen is the most serious environment problem．
34.How does the "dead zone" affect sea animals？
A.It offers more food．
B.It forms dangerous gas．
C.It reduces their living areas．
D.It produces more carbon dioxide．
35.How can we win the war according to the text？
A.By closing smaller fisheries．
B.By controlling humans＇ bad activities．
C.By improving people＇s living standards．
D.By stopping nutrients entering the ocean．
