With global warming and melting ice, it isn’t easy being a polar bear anymore. Some studies have predicted that polar bears could die out by the end of the century. The good news is not all researchers think the bears are absolutely disappearing. Scientists at the American Museum of Natural History(AMNH) have published a new paper indicating that things might not be as bad for polar bears as some scientists expect.

To understand the reason for the researchers’ cautious optimism, we must first understand the factors that are threatening the polar bear’s existence. Polar bears consume a diet of mainly young seals. In order to hunt these seals, polar bears need to rest at the top of sea ice---the same ice that is increasingly melting for most of the year thanks to climate change. In another 50 years, experts expect that the Arctic will be too warm for sea ice to form for half of the year, leaving polar bears without a reliable food source and in serious danger of starvation.

As it turns out, alternative food sources for the polar bears aren’t completely out of the question. For as long as biologists have tailed after the animals, they’ve seen polar bears eating animals found on land like caribou(驯鹿) and snow geese---as well as the snow geese’s eggs.

Can polar bears actually survive off these alternative food sources for long periods of time? To figure this out, researchers calculated the nutrients that a caribou and snow geese diet would provide. They found that even adult male polar bears would be able to obtain more calories than would burn in hunting these meals. Moreover, the food would provide the food lecessary to avoid starvation during the summer months.

Unfortunately, not all polar bears have tended to seek food on land. That said, the researchers expect that necessity would push more polar bears to hunt on land to avoid starvation. They also expect that the bears could learn from their fellow bears how to hunt on land until the practice becomes second nature.

【题目】The Entropia Universe

The Entropia Universe is a virtual world on the Internet, which seems very like our real life.It is set in a distant future and based on a planet called Calypso.Entropia was the brainchild of a group of Swedish computer lovers who decided to see if they could create a three dimensional (维度的) virtual world that could be placed on the Internet.They did manage after they received the financial backing they needed.

The game can be played for free, but nearly all in-game activities require personal resources that you have available to use.Although there are various activities to keep you busy on Calypso, what most people do first is to find themselves a profession, such as hunting the fierce animals on Calypso, mining the precious minerals and making tools.Then they can think about buying their virtual house or paying a visit to a virtual nightclub or doing any of the other activities that make life bearable.

Entropia has its very own economy (经济) and its own currency, the PED (Project Entropia Dollars).Players move real world money into PED which they then use to pay for their life on Calypso.However, the virtual things inside Entropia do have a real value in the outside world, and careful business deals mean that players can actually make real money there.PED can be changed into dollars any time at a rate of 10PED to 1 US$.

What’s so impressive about The Entropia Universe is the number of players; currently more than 600,000 representing over 220 countries from planet Earth.A number of players insist that it’s a good way to make money.However, the reality of Entropia’s economic system is that most people end up paying more than they earn and it’s not uncommon to find players who are paying up to $200 a month into their PED account.This might not be the most economical way of spending one’s free time.However, some people say that for them the fact that they can escape the realities of the earthbound life and become a different person with a completely different life for a few hours every week is worth the use of money, even if they don’t get any interest rates on it.

【1】What can we learn about The Entropia Universe?

A.It costs nothing to join.

B.It focuses on business plans.

C.It is designed for computer lovers.

D.It presents what life is like on other planets.

【2】What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?

A.What people do on Calypso.

B.When people buy houses there.

C.How people make life bearable.

D.Why people often find a job first.

【3】According to the author, playing on The Entropia Universe ________.

The smiling face of Santa Claus appears all across China.Local governments are decorating trees and lamp posts with lights and ornaments.At first glance,visitors would think they were in Europe.

Despite the fact that most Chinese are not Christians,Christmas season has become increasingly popular.

"If you walked around major Chinese cities 15 years ago,you wouldn`t have seen many signs of Christmas.However,if you were to visit those same Chinese cities again today,you’d be surprised to see signs of Christmas almost everywhere," says Cai Jiming,a professor with Tsinghua University,who has served as an expert in developing China`s holiday schedule.

Although Christmas is not a public holiday,many Chinese cities are still getting into the Christmas spirit.

Cai says his e-mail inbox and cell phone have been flooded with messages wishing him a merry Christmas.The greetings have been coming in since the end of November.

In his view,Christmas seems like a "warm-up" for the truly important coming month-long Spring Festival.

However,despite the prevalence (流行)of Christmas celebrations,for most Chinese,it neither means a religious celebration nor an occasion for family reunions.Instead,it is a time for relaxing with friends,a time to shop,a time to have a party and it is especially a time for romance.

"I expect my boyfriend to take me out on Christmas Eve and I expect a romantic night," says Christine Zhou,28,a hotel manager in Beijing."It seems to me that everything associated with Christmas time is romantic."

On the streets,rose and chocolate peddlers are vying (竞争)for their business.

Christmas has become another Valentine`s Day,and at the same time,more people feel it is a time to reward themselves with good food and a good time.

However,as more Chinese join in the Christmas celebrations each year,some feel the Western-based festival is harming time-honored traditions.

But Cai considers it is unnecessary to boycott (抵制)a Western cultural festival."All important festivals in different cultures have now developed into universal holidays," he says.”

A.Christmas has become the most important festival in China

London has more than nine million visitors every year.They come and visit some of the most famous places in England: Big Ben, the Tower of London and the River Thames.

The River Thames is London's main waterway.It has shaped the capital's landscape, history and geography.So one of the best ways of making sense of the city is to take a trip along the river.

Sight-seeing in London is great, but it can get very tiring.So, the best way to start the day is to fill up on an English breakfast.

For starters, have an egg, bacon, sausages (香肠), tomatoes, mushrooms, black pudding and fried bread.Then finish off with toast and jam, and a large pot of tea.You can buy an English breakfast in nearly every hotel, and at many restaurants and cafes.
