The time for action is now, at least when it comes to climate change. If we don’t take measures that limit
global warming, it may be impossible to stop its progress, according to a study published in 2018.
The study claims that in 2035, we will cross a point of no return — after which it will be extremely unlikely
that we can stop Earth’s temperature from rising by 2 degrees Celsius (2℃) and kicking off dangerous global
disasters.
The 2℃ mark is very important for Earth’s well-being. Once the planet warms an additional 2℃, scientists
predict a range of disastrous effects, from widespread flooding in coastal areas to burning heat waves and extreme
storms.
One important area that could slow the movement toward a point of no return in 2035 is the changing from
fossil fuels (矿物燃料) to renewable energy sources. But even this will require significant progress. Scientists have
figured that the share of renewables worldwide must grow by at least 2 percent each year in order to slow the
process toward climate change. Two percent a year may not sound like much, but in the 20 years leading up to
2017, the percentage of energy from renewables grew by a poor total of 3.6 percent.
There is hope, though. If the use of renewable energy were to go beyond the scientists’ model, say by 5
percent per each year, the climate change deadline (最后期限) could move back by at least a decade, theresearchers note. Also, developing technology to remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere could help slow
climate change. These gases change Earth’s atmosphere and allow it to capture more heat from the sun and cause
temperatures to rise.
“We hope that ‘having a deadline’ may stimulate the sense of urgency to act for policy makers,” Henk
Dijkstra, one of the study authors, said. “Very little time is left.”
1．What might happen once the Earth warms an additional 2℃?
A．The climate system will be rebuilt.
B．Global warming is uncontrollable.
C．Natural disasters become unavoidable.
D．Timely action will no longer be necessary.
2．What does the underlined “this” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A．The advances of scientific research.
B．The shift from fossil fuels to renewables.
C．The process of slowing down climate change.
D．The increase of public environmental awareness.
3．What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A．The limitation of scientists’ model.
B．Possible solutions to slowing climate change.
C．The value of the ‘point of no return’ concept.
D．Serious effects of greenhouse gases on Earth.
4．Why do the researchers set a deadline?
A．To stress the need of global cooperation.
B．To call on people to use renewable energy.
C．To urge policy makers to take immediate action.
D．To show their determination to stop global warming.

The Grey’s Anatomy doctors are navigating the patients that have kept them on our screens for some 400
episodes of the show. But in this episode, for the first time, the 21 to the drama is the very real issue of
climate change. It’s a relatively rare example of the many kinds of climate-related storylines that are typically
missing from 22 TV and film worlds. Social scientists argue that climate is a topic that belongs in many
kinds of on-screen stories, not just the 23 climate-disaster thriller.
But can seeing the realities of climate change affecting characters on the screen help us relate 24 to the
unfolding climate crisis – to cope better, or even change our behavior?
Non-profit storytelling consultancy Good Energy believes it can. It is among a small but growing number of
organizations 25 far more TV and film scripts to 26 climate-related storylines. In April 2022, it
released its Good Energy Playbook, a set of guidelines for embedding climate change into any on-screen story. It
joins other initiatives in drawing attention to the need for film and TV to 27 the numerous ways climate
change leaves its mark on our everyday lives.
The Good Energy Playbook’s suggestions are appropriately wide-ranging: characters with climate anxiety and
those fighting against injustice; utopian (乌托邦的) narratives that explore climate solutions; storylines that quietly
28 climate references into their characters’ worlds.
The playbook was created by Good Energy founder Anna Jane Joyner, “It started as a personal 29 ,
where I just got on the phone with as many screenwriters as I could,” she says. She quickly learned that writers
wanted to talk about climate, but “didn’t really have the support and toolset to be able to do it”.
Many research studies looked at the impact introducing climate stories had on viewers, and found it prompted
greater concern about climate change. It also 30 people’s understanding of it and made them more likely
to take action to reduce their emissions. 31 , science tells us that stories have a power that hard facts often
don’t. Research has long established that the human brain finds it easier to understand and remember information
delivered as a 32 , and has even found that stories can influence behavior.Climate stories, then, seem like a pretty good idea. But these sorts of narratives have been few and far
between. Julie Doyle, professor of media at the University of Brighton in the UK, says climate change has 33
for years to get into any form of fictional film or TV representation. “There’s been a silence around it,” she says.
It’s time to break the climate silence, says Doyle. “Mainstream media has tended to follow rather than lead,
and it would be great if mainstream media could lead this.” Day-to-day mentions of climate change in media are
especially important because, while blockbuster climate films can have a positive impact on awareness and action,
the effect is sadly 34 . People can feel inspired to take action in the moment, but the feeling 35

According to a recent study led by Miquelle, 46 Amur tigers were identified in four forested landscapes in
China. “Persistent efforts 36 (protect) tigers have paid off,” Miquelle said. The reason for the tigers’
sudden 37 (appear) in northeast China is due, in a large part, to a Chinese national policy called the
Natural Forest Protection Project (NFPP). “By stopping the harvesting of trees in many parts of China, they
essentially made whole villages whose economy, in the past, 38 (base) on timber harvest economic
wastelands,” Miquelle said. 39 the timber industry shutting down, the forests were able to recover, andthat’s “a big reason 40 tigers are expanding.”
The NFPP has shifted China toward environmental stewardship and wildlife protection. In 2016, China
established the Northeast Tiger Leopard National Park, which covers nearly 15,000 square kilometers, 41
(represent) the largest tiger shelter in the world. “China is working hard to turn this national park into 42
model for conservation,” Miquelle said.
Amur tigers may be well protected in northeastern China now, 43 they will face a number of threats
44 (link) to climate change. With a more changeable or 45 (dry) climate, forest fires pose a
serious threat to tiger habitat.
