Global warming may or may not be the great environmental crisis of the 21st century, but regardless of whether it is or not, we won't do much about it, We will argue over it and may even, as a nation, make some fairly solemn-sounding commitments to avoid it, But the more dramatic and meaningful these commitments seem, the less likely they are to be observed.

An I Gore calls global warming an “inconvenient truth,” as if merely recognizing it could put us on a path to a solution. But the real truth is that we don't know enough to relieve global warming ,and without major technological breakthroughs, we can’t do much about it.

From 2003to 2050, the world’s population is projected to grow from 6.4 billon to 9.1 billion a 42% increase, If energy use per person and technology remain the same total energy use and greenhouse gas emissions(排放) (mainly, CO₂)will be 42% higher in 2050. But that’s too low, because societies that grow richer use more energy, We need economic growth unless we condemn (使注定) the world’s poor to their present.

Poverty can freeze everyone else’s living standards. With modest growth, energy use and greenhouse emissions more than double by 2050, no government will adopt strict restrictions on economic growth and personal freedom(limits on electricity usage, driving and travel ) that might cut back global warming , Still , politicians want to show they’re “doing something “, Consider the Kyoto Protocol(京都议定书). It allowed countries that joined to punish those that didn’t But it hasn’t reduced CO₂ emissions (up about 25% since 1990),and many signatories(签字国)didn’t adopt tough enough policies to hit their 2008-2012 targets.

The practical conclusion is that if global warming is a potential disaster, the only solution is new technology, only an aggressive research and development program might find ways of breaking our dependence on fossil fuels or dealing with it.

The trouble with the global warming debate is that it has become a moral problem when it’s really an engineering one. The inconvenient truth is that if we don’t solve the engineering problem. We’re helpless.

When 1 was growing up，1 was embarrassed to be seen with my lather He was severely disabled and very  36   ,and when we would walk together , his hand on my arm for   37      , people would stare . I would inwardly (内心地)feel uncomfortable at the unwanted  38    . If he ever noticed or was bothered, he never    39    that he knew.

     It was   40    to coordinate (cooperate) our stepshis hesitant, mine impatientand because of that, we didn’t  41   much as we went along, But as we started out ,he always said,” You set the    42  , I will try to follow you ,”

     Our usual walk was to or from the subway, which was   43   he got to work, He went to work despite illness and bad weather, He almost never missed a day and would  44    it to the office even if others could not , A matter of   45  

He never talked about himself as an object of pity ,nor did he show any envy of the more fortunate or   46   . What he looked for   47   others was a “good heart”, and if he found one ,the      48    was good enough for him.

   Now that I am older, I believe that his idea is a proper  49   by which to judge people ,even though I  50  don’t know exactly what a “good heart”is   51    I know the times I don’t have one myself.

He has been gone many years now ,but I think of him often, I wonder if he   52   I was unwilling to be seen with him during our   53   , Now that I am older, I’m sorry that I never told him how sorry I was for my feeling   54   to be with him in public and how unworthy I felt to be his daughter. I think of him when I complain about trifles (something unimportant),when I am envious of another’s good fortune , and when I don’t possess a “good heart”.

At such times I put my hand on his arm to   55   my balance , and say ,”You set the pace , I will try to follow you ,.”
