6．When Julia Rhodes is asked what she does for a living，she says she is a"wind farmer"．While her job is operation manager for wind farm owner RES-Gen：Rhodes is responsible for making sure their l4wind farms in the UK and Ireland are using the power of the wind to produce power for homes and businesses．
RES-Gen is a division of leading renewable energy group Renewable Energy Systems（RES），a UK-based company with global operations．  RES was one of the pioneers of wind energy technology．It built the UK's second wind farm in l992．Since then：RES has built more than 40wind farms across four continents．
Rhodes graduated from the University of Nottingham with a degree in manufacturing engineering．  Following that，she received a master's degree in renewable energy systems technology specializing in wind energy．  Rhodes has worked in the wind sector ever since，providing technical support for two leading wind farm developers before joining RES in 2001．
RES's projects are continually monitored by computer and checked remotely on a daily basis．Regular servicing is carried out by contractors（承包者），usually every six months．Rhodes always has a top-level view of how well the wind turbines（涡轮）are operating．
Rhodes is a supporter of wind-energy engineering．She also works closely with other departments to keep good relations with the communities around RES's wind farms．The open days and government officials'visits show that wind power is popular and that wind projects-are viewed positively．
Renewable energy is a growing sector with attractive career prospects． For Rhodes．as the RES wind farms expand，the team that she manages is expected to increase．She enjoys working for a company with strong engineering roots and a highly respected track record（业绩）．Her job as a wind farmer is challenging and enjoyable．"It's great knowing that you are helping to bring about a clean．environment and are contributing to the global community．"

5．Dear All，
Happy New Year!A list of important dates for this term is attached to this letter．
Interviews for our April and September Primary One classes will take place on Tuesday and Wednesday，18th&19th January．Now is the time to apply for admission to Peak School．
Children are expected to weal their uniforms this term．As is usual at this time of the year，mornings at the school are quite cold and l would suggest children wear their sweaters to school．As the temperature goes up during the day，children tend to take off their outer clothes，so it is important that all sweatshirts are labeled（贴有标签）．
I have received a few requests from parents asking if their children can wear summer uniforms this term．I am of the view that all children in the school should follow the school policy and be dressed in the appropriate uniforms．In the longer term，a number of US at school have questioned the need to have a winter and summer uniform．Perhaps．with careful consideration，we can develop a uniform that will serve children for the whole academic year．
As the foggy（多雾）mornings start to appear，a number of parents have raised concerns over the safety of those children who walk to school． Our dark green uniforms are not particularly visible to motorists．Hopefully，the"Uniform Committee"to be set up this term will deal with this particular issue．I will keep parents informed of the channels through which views may be expressed in future newsletters．
We still have a"No Hat，No Play"rule on the playground，so children need to ensure that they have their sunhats in school at all times．
Yours sincerely，
P D Tunesi
Principal

19．A．The likely reason of global warming
B．Global warming-a world problem
C．The fast increase in recent years
D．What we should do to avoid greenhouse gases producing
E．The earth is becoming warmer
F．Different opinions on the cause of global warming
61．E
Is the world warming up？According to many reports，the answer is yes．Eleven of the hottest years since 1850appeared between 1995and 2006．Last year，the United Nation's Intergovernment Panel on Climate Change （IPCC） reported the earth was about 0.75℃warmer than it was in 1850．While this doesn't sound like a lot，a small difference in average temperature can make a big difference in climate．During the last Ice Age，the planet was only about five degrees colder than now．
62．C
It's all about the speed at which temperatures are changing．In the past，temperatures moved up or down step by step．But in the 20^th century，especially since 1976，temperatures have likely risen more quickly than during any century in the last 1000years．Warming may bring improved harvests to northern countries such as Canada and Russia．However，many species won't like these conditions．They begin moving towards cooler places and cause lots of trouble to human world．
63．A
The IPCC reported that human activity is very likely responsible by increasing the greenhouse effect．Some gases cause the air to take in heat energy．Without the greenhouse effect，the earth's average temperature would be-18℃rather than the present comfortable 14.6℃．The main greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide，water vapor and some other gases．Burning oil，coal and waste adds to the carbon dioxide，and it has increased 35% since 1850．
64．F
Many researchers have found that natural forces alone don't explain the temperature increases over the last 30to 40years．Their study shows that as carbon dioxide goes up，temperature will rise，too．But some scientists don't agree．They think the effect of human produced greenhouse gases is very small compared to the normal changes that the climate causes．
65．D
When asked whether humans are causing the world warming，Carl Wunsch，a professor at Massachusetts Institute of Technology says，"It seems very likely from what I've seen．Is it 100% sure？No．There is something to do with natural changes．"Does that mean we should have a"wait-and-see"attitude？Not according to Wunsch．He points out we buy house insurance not because we are sure our homes will be on fire，but because it's a danger we'd rather avoid．
