¡°______1._______ It all depends on your personality,¡± said British naturalist Richard Mabey. ¡°Personality shapes your view of the season,¡± he said. ¡°You may see it as a fading away, a packing up(½áÊø), or as a time of packing in another sense ¨Cthe gathering of resources before a long journey.¡±
______2._______ About November, he wrote:
No warmth, no cheerfulness, no healthful ease
No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees
November!
On the other hand, another English poet John Keats, already sensing he was seriously ill, was inspired by a late September day to pen one of the most famous poems in the English language, To Autumn. ______3._______
According to Richard Mabey, Keats has the biological evidence on his side. _______4._______ For example, just at the moment that Keats's ¡°gathering swallows¡± (in To Autumn) are departing for Africa, millions of creatures are fleeing from the frozen north like Iceland, Greenland and Russia to winter along the east and south coasts of Britain. People might argue that it is the coloring of the leaves and their eventual fall that make people feel sad about autumn. But no one is sure why trees drop their leaves in the first place. It may be likely to rid the poisonous material trees collect over the summer. _______5._______
A century after Keats, the American poet Loren Eiseley wrote in his journal: ¡°Suppose we saw ourselves burning like maples in a golden autumn. And suppose we could disintegrate(Íß½â) like autumn leaves¡Would not our attitude towards death be different?¡±
A. Autumn is not a time of slowing down, but a time of new beginnings and great movements of creatures.
B. He wrote to a friend afterwards that there was something comforting and healing about autumn.
C. Keats thought we should take a negative attitude towards death.
D. Autumn means different to different people.
E. If this is true, perhaps it tells us a little about, for instance, Thomas Hood, the 19th Century English poet.
F. More likely, it is a way of reducing the loss of water, which tree roots find hard to take in from cold soil.
G. The fall of tree leaves is more likely to make people sad.

¡¡¡¡In 1990 a report was published about what the earth might be like 20 years from then on. 71 According to the report,the picture of the earth in the year 2010 is not a pleasant one. 72 The population could be as large as 6300 million,almost 2150 million more than in 1985.More people would move into cities ,especially cities in developing countries.Cities like Cairo and Jakarta probably would each have 15 million by then.
¡¡¡¡ 73 Farmers will grow 90% more food than they did in 1985,but most of the increase would be in countries that already produce enough food for their people. 74 Poor farming ways are destroying large areas of crop land,changing farms into deserts.More farmland is lost as cities become larger and more houses are built.Air pollution will get worse as industrial countries burn more coal and oil.Many of the world's forests could disappear as more and more trees are cut down.Energy will continue to be a serious problem. 75 They only workde out the situation that exists today.By changing the situation,by settling the problems,the picture can be changed.There is still time for the nations of the world to work out a plan of action.But they warned that waiting too long to make de cisions would greatly reduce the chances of success.
A£®Food production will increase,but not enough to feed all the people. |
B£®The report was a result of a three - year study. |
C£®Later on,more reports came out one by one. |
D£®The world will be more crowded because the population will continue to grow. |
¡¡¡¡E.Experts believe enough food will be produced in developing countries very soon.
¡¡¡¡F.The experts say their picture of the earth for the year 2010 may be wrong.
G.Little increase is expected in South Asia,Africa and the Middle East.
