Houses fall down. Trees fall over. Large holes form in the ground. Could Alaska be sinking? That’s what some villagers in Alaska have been asking themselves recently and scientists think they know why. Warmer temperatures may be causing Alaska’s frozen ground to thaw (解冻).

About 85 percent of Alaska’s land surface has permafrost (永久冻结带). Permafrost supports the ground above it—including trees, houses, and roads. But why is the permafrost thawing?

Some scientists say that human-caused pollution is leading to global warming. And most scientists agree that Alaska has been getting warmer. They say that the warmer temperature is causing permafrost to thaw in some areas. The thawing permafrost can cause problems for people, plants, and animals.

The collapsing (倒塌) is a problem in the villages in Alaska which are built on permafrost, and some of them may have to move to safer ground, where there is no permafrost.

The Alaskan town of Glennallen saw its old post office collapse. And, according to James Walters, a permafrost expert at the University of Northern Iowa, house-moving companies have been very busy.

“Melting permafrost can also destroy trees and forests,” Walters said. “When holes in the ground form, trees fall into them and die. This could turn a forest into a swamp (沼泽), and animals which need the forests will have to move elsewhere.”

“The melting could cause severe problems.” Walters says, “This could take hundreds of years, but in the end Alaska will look quite different from what it looks like now.”

1.The main reason why permafrost is thawing is that ______.

A. the temperature in Alaska is rising

B. people in Alaska don’t take care of permafrost

C. too many houses are built on permafrost

D. people in Alaska polluted permafrost

2.The following are the results of melting permafrost EXCEPT ______.

A. holes form in the ground

B. a forest will be turned into a swamp

C. some animals have to go elsewhere

D. more water will be needed by people and animals

3.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. When permafrost melts, houses will fall down.

B. House-moving companies are busy because their houses are in danger.

C. To stop permafrost melting is a very difficult problem.

D. Most of Alaska’s land surface has permafrost.

4.Which of the following can be used as the best title of the passage?

A. Alaska—A Frozen Land B. Pollution and Global Warming

C. Is Alaska Sinking? D. Alaska Is Polluted

Grandparents who help out occasionally with childcare in their community tend to live longer than seniors who do not care for other people,according to a study from Berlin,Germany.

“Having no contact with grandchildren at all can negatively impact grandparents’ health. This link could be deeply rooted in our evolutionary past when help with childcare was important for the survival of the human species,”said Sonja Hilbrand,one of the researchers.

The findings are drawn from data on more than 500 people over age 70.Overall,after accounting for grandparents’age and general state of health,the risk of dying over a 20-year period was one-third lower for grandparents who cared for their grandchildren,compared with grandparents who provided no childcare.

Caregiving was associated with a longer life even when the care receiver wasn’t a relative. Half of a 11 childless seniors who provided support to friends or neighbors lived for seven years after the study began,while non-helpers lived for four years on average.

“Caregiving may give caregivers a purpose of life because they may feel useful for others and society.Caregiving may be thought also as an activity that keeps caregivers physically and mentally active,” said Professor Bruno Arpino.

Arpino noted,however,that caregiving is not the only activity that can improve health and that too many caring responsibilities can take away from other beneficial activities like working,being in social clubs,or volunteering.“Children should take into account their parents’ needs,willingness,and desires and agree with them on the timing and amount of childcare,” he suggested.

“It is very important that every individual decides for him/herself,what proper amounts of help’ means,”Hilbrand said,adding,“As long as you do not feel stressed about the intensity(强度) of help you provide you may be doing something good for others as well as for yourself.”

1.What is the caregiving study based on?

A. Human evolutionary history. B. Demand modern society.

C. Social contact between relatives. D. Data on many elderly people.

2.In Arpino’s opinion,childcare________.

A. is sure to keep old people away from illnesses

B. allows old people to live a more meaningful life

C. creates more job opportunities for old people

D. makes social activities inaccessible to old people

3.What does the underlined part “take into account” in Paragraph 6 probably mean?

A. Limit. B. Ignore. C. Favor. D. Consider.

4.What does the last paragraph tell us?

A. Grandparents can do anything in their own interests.

B. Grandparents should share more social responsibilities.

C. Proper amounts of childcare do good to grandparents.

D. Caregiving guarantees every grandparent a longer life.
