A British man has been reunited with his leather wallet—nearly twenty years after it was lost during a train ride across Switzerland.

Colin,50,said:“When I received the e-mail I thought that was unexpected and happened suddenly.I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it.”Colin said the wallet itself-a birthday gift from his wife-is in good condition and showing few signs of additional wear and tear.“I'm amazed at its good condition and that it had my entire old ID -my passport,driving license,old company ID and all my credit cards.”Colin said the police haven't figured out how the wallet ended up in Chur.

On the first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn't know.I looked round when a gentle hand touched my shoulder.I turned around to find a wrinkled, little old lady with a smile.She said, “Hi, handsome.My name is Rose.I'm eighty?seven years old.Can I give you a hug?” I laughed and enthusiastically responded, “Of course you may !” She gave me a giant squeeze.“Why are you in college at such a young,innocent age?”I asked.“I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one!” she told me.After class we walked to the Student Union building and shared a chocolate milkshake.We became instant friends.

Every day of the next three months we would leave class together and talk non?stop.I was always listening to this “time machine” as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.Over the course of the year, Rose became a campus icon (偶像) and she easily made friends wherever she went.At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football dinner.I'll never forget what she taught us.“We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing.There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up.Anybody can grow older.That doesn't take any talent or ability.The idea is to grow up by always finding opportunities in change.Have no regrets.The elderly usually don't have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do.The only people who fear death are those with regrets.” She concluded her speech by courageously singing “The Rose”.She challenged each of us to study the lyrics (歌词) and live them out in our daily life.At the year's end she finished the college degree she had begun all those years.One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep.

According to the UN Intergovernmental Panel (专家咨询组) on Climate Change, global temperatures have risen by approximately 0.6℃ in the past century, caused mainly by emissions of greenhouse gases produced by human activities,such as the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation.Temperatures are to increase between 1.6℃ and 5.8℃ in the next century, accompanied by sea level rise and an increase in the frequency of extreme weather events.

The best available evidence suggests that climate changes since the 1970s may already be causing over 150,000 deaths annually, and that greenhouse gas emissions would increase disease burdens in the coming decades.The risks are concentrated in the poorest population, who have contributed least to the problem.

The Kyoto Protocol (京都议定书) is signed by 128 nations,and commits the participating industrialized countries to cutting emissions of greenhouse gases by over 5% below 1990 level by the period of 2008?2012.

“Over 600 thousand people died in weather?related disasters in the 1990s.Temperature and rainfall influence the rates of diseases and infections including malaria,and malnutrition,which together cause over 3.5 million deaths a year.The Kyoto Protocol is the first step towards protecting the climate system,which exerts such a strong influence on our health”,said Dr Kerstin Leitner,Assistant Director?General for Sustainable Development and Healthy Environments.

While acting to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, it is also essential to protect vulnerable (脆弱的) communities from the effects of climate changes.WHO works to promote measures such as protection from malaria and other climate sensitive diseases, and reliable access to clean water and sanitation, for people in the most vulnerable developing countries.Increasing disease control efforts will also help to protect current and future generations from the impacts of greenhouse gas emissions.

1.According to the passage, what is the reason for the rise of global temperatures?

A.The burning of fossil fuels.

B.The rise of sea level.

C.Extreme weather disasters.

D.The emissions of greenhouse gases.

2.Which of the following is true?

A.Weather?related disasters caused over 3.5 million deaths.

B.The climate system has a deep impact on human health.

C.The members of the Kyoto Protocol are all industrialized countries.

D.The poorest population are to blame because they contribute least to the problem.

3.In order to protect communities, WHO takes some measures except________.

A.preventing diseases caused by climate changes

B.helping to provide clean water

C.aiding to offer sanitation

D.gaining access to vulnerable developing countries

4.What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.Climate changes and the effects on human health.

B.Climate changes cause over 15,000 deaths annually.

C.Who promotes measures such as protection from malaria.

D.The Kyoto Protocol helps to protect human health.
