Задание 1. Установите соответствие между заголовками A-F и текстами 1-5. Занесите свои ответы в таблицу. Используйте каждую букву только один раз. В задании есть один лишний заголовок
A. Melting ice
B. The greenhouse effect
C. Hope for the future
D. Disappearing islands
E. A lesson from history
F. The effects of global warming
1. The islanders of Kiribati and Tuvalu do not need to read about climate change and global warming – they can see it happening all around them. Sea levels are rising, and this is changing the way the people in these small Pacific islands live. Farmers have to grow crops in tin cans because there is too much salt in the ground, the fish are dying because the sea is too warm, and drinking water is harder and harder to find. The small island of Tebua Tarawra has already disappeared, and the islanders of Kiribati and Tuvalu are afraid that more of their land will soon be under water.
2. Most scientists around the world agree that the Earth is getting warmer. They believe that some places are already 20 hotter than they were 50 years ago, and that temperatures will go up another 50 in the next hundred years. This means that the ice at the North and South Poles will melt, the oceans will expand and the sea will rise by as much as one metre.
3. In the atmosphere above the Earth, gases like carbon dioxide naturally trap the sun’s heat and keep the air warm. This stops most of the world from becoming covered in ice. However, the problem is that human beings are now making this happen more quickly and dramatically in what scientists call the ‘greenhouse effect.’ We are creating more and more carbon dioxide by burning fossil fuels (coal and oil) to make electricity and drive cars. In the USA alone, each person creates six tons of carbon dioxide a year.
4. Nobody knows what will happen if global warming continues, but we can look at an example from the past to see what might happen. In the Pacific Ocean there is another small island, a rocky, treeless place called Easter Island, which has many strange old statues. Hundreds of years ago it was green and rich and covered in trees. However, the islanders cut down their trees to make fires, build boats and move their statues. As the forests got smaller, they had less fruit and fewer wild animals and birds to eat; and the people began to go hungry. In the end, there were no trees at all. The islanders started wars and killed each other, until there was almost no – one left.
5. Some scientists believe that in the future the weather will be more extreme – there will be stronger hurricanes, bigger floods and longer droughts. Some parts of the world may get warmer and wetter, and others may get colder. This may affect forests, the food we grow and the animals that live in the wild, and cause disease to spread more quickly.
