24、coast to coast, the family was able to raise over $ 24,000 for research.On December 9th, 2017, the family were eventually approaching the end of their journey.

The Youngest Person to Cross America on FootCScientists say “extreme” warm air high over the Arctic Ocean this week

30、 is melting sea ice and sending very cold air to Europe. And they say such strange weather may become more common as temperatures continue to rise worldwide.The effects of the warming are clear on Greenlands north coast, where scientists have recorded 61 hours of temperatures above zero degrees Cels

31、ius in 2018. That is a record for a place normally frozen at this time of year. And across the Arctic region, temperatures are now 20 degrees Celsius above the average. But far to the south, a rare snow storm struck Rome, Italy, on Monday.Scientists have suspected for more than 40 years that disappe

32、aring sea ice in the Arctic Ocean could make areas to the south colder. Climate scientists even use the phrase “warm Arctic, cold continent.”Ruth Mottram is a climate scientist at the Danish Meteorological Institute. “Its never been this extreme,” she says.Lars Kaleschke is a professor at the Univer

33、sity of Hamburg in Germany. He tells Reuters that it is unclear how often these warming periods will take place. “The question is whether this weather will happen more often. This is just one event so its hard to make a causal (因果关系的) relationship,” he says.Over time, as sea ice melts, more ocean is

34、 being exposed, which releases more heat into the atmosphere. The warmer air may, in turn, change the flow of air currents high in the atmosphere, which is called the jet stream (高速气流).Nalan Koc is the director of research at the Norwegian Polar Institute. He says that the jet stream becomes wavier,

35、 meaning that colder air can penetrate (渗透) further south and warmer air further north.The World Meteorological Organization, the U.N. weather agency, says the cold weather in Europe is being caused by a “sudden stratospheric (平流层的) warming” above the North Pole. This has forced colder air south.Ice

36、 in the Arctic Ocean is at its lowest recorded levels for late February. The U. S. National Snow and Ice Data Center says that about 14 million square kilometres of the ocean is currently covered with ice. That is about one million less than normal, or roughly the size of Egypt. Scientists have used

37、 satellites to observe Arctic ice for more than 30 years.“What we once considered to be anomalies (反常现象) are becoming the new normal. Our climate is changing right in front of our eyes, and weve only got a short amount of time to stop this from getting significantly worse,” Erik Solheim, the head of

38、 the U.N. Environment Programme, told Reuters.Scientists want to know if the Arctic weather is being driven by human activities or natural forces. Satellite temperature measurements only date back to the late 1970s.The warming temperatures are already causing problems. On the Norwegian island group

39、of Svalbard, temperatures are more than 13 degrees Celsius higher than the long-term average.Svalbard is home to the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, a centre aimed at saving plant genetic material for future generations in case of nuclear war, climate change and other possible threats. The seed vault is

40、 located there partly because of Svalbards low temperatures. But unusually warm temperatures could threaten the collection.28. What can we know about the weather on the European continent this winter?A. It has experienced extremely cold weather.B. Its actually not quite different from the previous y

41、ears.C. Temperatures are 20 degrees Celsius above the average.D. Scientists have recorded 61 hours of temperatures above zero degrees Celsius.29. One thing that Lars Kaleschke is unclear about is .A. whether humans can stop the weather from getting worseB. whether the extreme weather is linked to hu

43、. increase the worlds food output in the futureB. carry out some scientific experiments on plant genesC. build an exhibition centre of the worlds plant seedsD. protect crop seeds from dying out in case of possible disastersDOver the past several years, e-cigarettes have entered the marketplace and b

44、ecome very popular. Many smokers turn to them, believing that they are a safe alternative to smoking tobacco cigarettes, but are they? Unfortunately, theyre not: E-cigarettes are just another way of putting nicotinea highly addictive druginto your body.E-cigarettesshort for electronic cigarettesare

45、smoking devices powered by batteries. Theyre often designed to look and feel like regular tobacco cigarettes. Instead of tobacco, however, they use cartridges (过滤桶) filled with liquid known as e-liquid or e-juice. E-liquids typically contain nicotine, flavourings, and a variety of other chemicals. E

46、- cigarettes contain heating elements that turn the e-liquids into a vapour (蒸气) that the user takes in. That is why using e-cigarettes is often called “vaping”.Because e-cigarettes dont burn tobacco, people dont take in the same amount of tar (焦油) and carbon monoxide(CO) as they would with a regula

47、r cigarette. But anyone using e-cigarettes still gets an unhealthy amount of nicotine and other chemicals.E-cigarettes have been marketed to smokers as a way to help them quit, but theres no evidence that they actually help people stop smoking. Instead, theyve been found to be a health risk for peop

48、le who use them, as well as for bystanders who breathe in the secondhand vapour which comes out of the device and the users mouth and the third-hand vapour which is deposited on surfaces of clothing, floors and so on.Although many experts believe e-cigarettes are less dangerous than tobacco cigarett

49、es, its still a bad habit you dont want to start. They worry that e-cigarettes will become a gateway to using tobacco cigarettes. Kids may try e-cigarettes thinking theyre safer. Once theyre addicted to nicotine, they may move on to tobacco cigarettes. Recent scientific studies suggest that there ma

50、y be a link between e-cigarette use and trying tobacco cigarettes. For example, a 2016 study concluded that teens who had never smoked tobacco cigarettes but had used e-cigarettes were six times more likely to try tobacco cigarettes than kids who had never used e-cigarettes.E-cigarettes dont fill th

51、e lungs with harmful smoke, but that doesnt make them a healthy alternative to regular cigarettes. When you use an e-cigarette, youre still putting nicotine which is absorbed through your lungs into your body system. In addition to being an addictive drug, nicotine is also poisonous in large amount.

52、 It was once even used to kill bugs.Nicotine affects your brain, nervous system, and heart and it raises blood pressure and heart rate. The larger the amount of nicotine, the more a persons blood pressure and heart rate go up, which can cause arrhythmia (心律不齐). In rare cases, especially when large a

53、mounts of nicotine are involved, arrhythmias can cause heart failure and death.After its initial effects gradually disappear, the body starts to be eager for nicotine. You might feel depressed, tired or irritable unless you take in more nicotine again. Over time, nicotine use can lead to serious med

54、ical problems, including heart disease, high blood pressure, and stomach diseases.Because nicotine is so addictive, the best way to avoid the trouble of trying to quit smoking or stop using e-cigarettes is never to start.32. Why do many experts worry about kids trying e-cigarettes?A. These kids are

55、likely to turn to tobacco cigarettes.B. These kids are not aware of the dangers of smoking.C. E-cigarettes are especially harmful to kids health.D.

57、smokers to give up smokingC. e-cigarettes are helpful in helping people quit smokingD. the number of adult cigarette smokers is dropping at present35. Whats the purpose of the author writing the passage?A. To explain what in fact e-cigarettes are.B. To advise people not to smoke e-cigarettes.C. To i

58、ntroduce some useful ways of quitting smoking.D.
