13、According to the studies from the UN, the increase of CO2in the air is responsible for 85% of the temperature increase. CO2goes into the air when we burn fossil fuels to run our industries, cars and so on. Luckily, half of the CO2that we produced is taken in by plants, trees, land and the oceans. The rest gases are still large to cause worry. At the same time, we are cutting down forests that take in carbon from the air.
To solve the problem is not an easy job. Developed nations such as the USA, Germany and Australia will have to promise to cut down greenhouse gases by as much as 25-40%. Countries such as India and China that have a large population and growing industry, have to leave a smaller greenhouse gas footprint. Everybody must be active and stick to it.

15、You’re in a department store and you see two fashionable young women, looking at a sweater. You listen to their conversation:
“I can’t believe it—a Lorenzo Bertolla! They are hard to find. It’s much cheaper than the one Sara bought in Rome.”
They leave and you go over to see this sweater. You’ve never heard of Lorenzo Bertolla, but those girls looked really fashionable. They must know. So, you buy it. You never realize that those young women are employees of an advertising agency. They are actually paid to go from store to store, talking loudly about Lorenzo Bertolla clothes.
Every day we notice what people are wearing, drinking and eating. If the person looks cool, the product seems cool, too. This is the secret of undercover marketing (秘密行销). Companies from Ford to Nike are starting to use it. It can reach people that don’t pay attention to traditional advertising. For example, consumers between the age of 18 and 34. They have a lot of money to spend, but they don’t believe ads.
So advertising agencies hire (雇佣) young actors to “perform” in bars and other places where young adults go. Some people might call this practice misleading, but the marketing manager Jonathan Reseller calls it creative. “Look at traditional advertising. Its effectiveness is decreasing”

17、 Language changes all the time. New words and phrases appear and grow. The words and pronunciations used by young people in the UK can be very different from those used by adults Living in a multi (多元的)-cultural society has an effect on language, especially on young people, whose friends are often from a mix of backgrounds. TV and music also influence the language of the young.
Young British people use lots of language that you usually can't find in most dictionaries. These very informal(不正规的) words and expressions are known as “slang”. It is not possible to make a complete list of modern British slang. By the time the list was finished, it would be out of date! However, here are a few examples:
◆“Safe”,“ sorted”;“ sound”,“cool” and “wicked” all mean “That' s good" or “I understand”.
◆“Whatever ”means “I don’t care”.(e.g. A: But the teacher says we can't leave until we've finished. B: Whatever. I'm going)
◆“He's fine". And “He's fit ” both mean “He's good-looking”. Fine and fit can describe a boy or a girl.
Not everybody uses slang and not everybody likes it. A school in Sheffield, has recently required its pupils to stop using slang words such as hiya (hello), cheers and ta(both mean “thank you "). The head teacher says that If young people learn to speak“correctly”, this will help them get a place at university and a good job。
So, how important is it to learn these slang words and expressions? If you watch films or TV in English, read magazines in English, chat online in English or are interested in English song lyrics, then understanding slang can be very useful. You probably won't see much slang in your English exam, though.

18、The high school diploma (文凭) is losing its value quickly, as a growing number of students graduate (毕业) from school without the math and reading skills that colleges and companies require, according to a new report.
The high school graduation exams that most states (州) require students to pass before they graduate remain far too easy. Most of the exams generally test eighth-or ninth-grade level work.
Today, even high school graduates who are going to have blue-collar (蓝领) jobs need to study the math, research and writing courses. But in high school, only students who are going to college are now required to take these courses.
“If you want a good job with a good pay, it’s a high-skill job,” said Michael Cohen, a leading member of the America Diploma Project.
The project suggests that all graduates master a wide range (范围) of skills. “A high school diploma should mean something to a company and university,” said Ohio Gov. Bob Taft, who is Achieve’s co-cha
