When an ice sheet (冰盖)melts, it raises sea levels. It sounds simple, but scientists have debated for decades whether both the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets actually were shrinking, and how much that melting contributed to rising sea levels.Now, a new study has provided the best evidence of how the polar ice sheets are responding to our warming world. In the study, an international team of scientists looked at 20 years of data in the ice sheets collected by 10 satellite missions. The teams conclusion: The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets both are losing ice overall. The researchers also found that between 1992 and 2011, melt water from those shrinking ice sheets caused sea levels to rise by about 11 millimeters.Over the 19 years studied, the Greenland ice sheet lost 2.7 trillion metric tons of ice. The Antarctic ice sheet also shrank by about l.3 trillion metric tons. Previously, some scientists disagreed whether the Antarctic sheet, the largest mass of ice in the world, was shrinking or growing or neither.While the Earth is warming overall, the effect of climate change varies from region to region. Over the last 15 years, for example, scientists have something disagreed over how climate change has affected the polar ice sheets. Many studies found that the sheets lost a lot of ice and that not enough snow fell on the sheets to compensate for the loss. But other studies found that the loss of ice was balanced by the gain in snowfall.Richard Alley, a glacier scientist at Penn State University, said that many of those studies looked at different areas, and over different time periods. In addition, the studies didnt all use the satellite data in the same way. Those differences made, it difficult to compare the results.The data in the new study matched time periods and areas. The study also combined measurements from kinds of satellites.1、Why does the author use a common-sense phenomenon as the beginning?ATo present the reason for ice sheet melting.BTo show us the result of a scientific experiment.CTo give a simple example to introduce the topic.DTo present a common daily finding obvious to the readers.2、The researchers reached their conclusion by_.Aanalyzing the findings of former studiesBobserving the Antarctic and GreenlandCreferring to the data from satellitesDmaking measurements in the Antarctic and Greenland3、What does the underlined phrase compensate for in paragraph 4 refer to?ACut down.BLead toCBring about.DMake up for.4、Which of the following might be the best conclusion for the passage?AIce sheets are shrinking due to global warming.BPeople are suffering from climate change.CRising sea levels makes people live in danger.DShrinking ice has nothing to do with sea levels.24（8分）Every pet owner loves his pet. There is no argument here.But when we asked our readers whether they would clone their beloved animals, the responses were split almost down the middle. Of the 228 readers who answered it, 108 would lone, 111 would not and nine weighed each side without offering an opinion.Clearly, from readers response, this is an issue that reaches deeply into both the joy and eventual sadness of owning a pet. It speaks, as well, to peoples widely differing expectations over the developing scientific procedure.Most of the respondents who favored the idea strongly believed it would produce at least a close copy of the original; many felt the process would actually return an exact copy. Those on the other side, however, held little hope a clone could never truly recreate a pet, many simply didnt wish to go against the natural law of life and death.Both sides expressed equal love for their animals. More than a few respondents owned “the t dog/cat in the World”. They thought of their pets as their “best friend”, a member of the family,” “the light of my life.” They told moving stories of pets heroism, intelligence and selfless devotion.Little wonders the loss is so disturbing-and the cloning so attractive. “People become very lose to their animals, and the loss can be just as hard to bear as when a friend or family memberdies,” says Gary Kowalski, author of Goodbye, Friend: Healing Wisdom for Anyone Who Has Ever Lost a Pet. “For me, cloning feels like an attempt to turn death away. Its understandable. Death is always painful. Its difficult to deal with. Its hard to accept.”But would cloning reduce the blow? This question seemed to be at the heart of this problem.1、So far as the cloning of pets is concerned, a recent survey shows that, of all pet owners, ,Aa lot more of them are for it Ba lot more of them are against itCvery few of them are willing to tell their opinions Dabout half of them are for it and the other half against it2、While talking about the respondents from the readers, the expression “eventual sadness of owning a pet” refers to ,Athe troubles one has to deal with in keeping a petBthe high cost of owning a petCthe death of ones petDthe dangers involved in the cloning of a pet3、From what Gary Kowalski says, we can know that he ,Ahas never thought about the problem of cloningBis in favor of the idea of cloning petsCis going to write another book on petsDis all against the cloning of pets4、What is the key question at the heart of the problem of cloning pets?ACan cloning make the pain one suffers less when a pet dies?BCan pet owners afford the cost of cloning?CDoes cloning go against the law of nature?DHow reliably does cloning produce an exact copy of ones pet?25（10分）President Xi Jinping, while visiting a village in North Chinas Shanxi province, called on Wednesday for greater efforts and more effective measures to help those living in poverty.The president has paid much attention to poverty reduction in recent years. In his New Years address, Xi said that what he cares most about is poor people. The peoples longing for a happy life is the goal that the Communist Party of China is striving for, Xi said during a stop in the village of Songjiagou, Kelan county, during his Shanxi inspection tour. The village is newly built for local people who relocated from povertystricken homes nearby. He called on the villagers to “roll up their sleeves and work on” and the peoples livelihoods will “rise joint by joint like sesame flowers on the stem,”the pre
