Unit 4 Global warming
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2016·上海)
Is there link between humans and climate change or not? This question was first studied in the early 1900s.Since then, many scientists have thought that our actions do make a difference.In 1997, the Kyoto Protocol explained our role in the Earths changing atmosphere and set international limits for gas emissions(排放) from 2008 to 2012.Some countries have decided to continue these reductions until 2020.More recently, the Paris Agreement, stuck by nearly 200 countries, also aims to limit global warming.
But just now how much warmer it will get depends on how deeply countries cut carbon emissions.
——3.5℃
This is how much temperatures would rise by 2100 even if nations live up to the initial Paris promises to reduce carbon emissions; this rise could still put coastal cities under water and drive over half of all species to extinction.
——2℃
To meet this minimum goal, the Agreement requires countries to tighten emissions targets every five years.Even this increase could sink some islands, worse drought(干旱) and drive a decline of up to a third in the number of species.
——1.5℃
This is the most ambitious goal for temperature rise set by the Paris Agreement, after a push by low-lying island nations like Kiribati, which say limiting temperature rise to 1.5℃ could save them from sinking.
——0.8℃
This is how much temperatures have risen since the industrial age began, putting us 40% of the way to the 2℃ point.
——0℃
The baseline here is average global temperature before the start of the industrial age.
文章大意:本文介绍了人们一直努力减少温室气体的排放,并设立了到2100年我们应该达成的目标以及达成目标要符合的条件。
1.It can be concluded from paragraph 1 that__D__.

B.gas emissions have been effectively reduced in developed countries
C.the Paris Agreements is more influential than the Kyoto Protocol
D.humans have made continuous efforts to slow down global warming
解析:推理判断题。根据文章第一段三至六句“Since then, many scientists have thought that
