Animals United

Animals United is a 3D German cartoon which is directed by Reinhard Klooss and Holger Tappe. It is a story about animals that get together to find water. Along their journey, lots of funny things happen, and of course, they have a lot of adventures.

The animals in the grasslands in Africa are waiting for the coming flood (洪水）. However, this year's flood seems to come later than in other years. The animals become upset and worried. At the same time, some animals from other places come to the grasslands to look for peace. However, the situation seems worse because the water is becoming less and less. So they decide to look for the river.

Finally, they find the reason why they don’t have any water to drink. A dam(壩）has been set up so that humans can have a better life. After a long fight with humans, they let the world know that animals are in danger.

If the temperature rises by 5 degrees tomorrow, you will probably take off just one coat. But such a change in the average world temperature would be a serious problem. Many animals and plants would not be able to deal with these changes, and would die.
The UNEP(聯(lián)合國環(huán)境規(guī)劃署) released（發(fā)布）the Report 2012 on November 21, 2012. It says that if we don’t take action now, the world temperature will have risen by 3 to 5 degrees by the end of this century.
A large rise in temperatures could be terrible for us and for many other living things on Earth. Sea levels will rise because higher temperatures will cause melting ice flow into the sea.Large coastal (沿海的) cities in countries such as the Netherlands and Bangladesh could be flooded.
Some plants such as corn and sugarcane (甘蔗) will not grow well in higher temperatures. Some countries, such as Brazil and parts of Africa, will not have enough food. The change may cause less rain and even make some places very dry.
On November 26, people from around 200 nations and regions gathered again in Doha (多哈) for the annual UN climate talks.“Climate change is coming to all human beings and effective actions need to be taken to deal with it.”president of the conference said at the opening ceremony.

In a small town in the United States a large group of girls cleaned the banks of 11 kilometers of their river.

閱讀理解。
       Think of life in a desert: no food or water, only strong sun and heavy wind full of sand. You'd die of
thirst while waiting for a passing plane that never comes.
        But don't dismiss the thought as a nightmare (噩夢). Your hometown could become a desert if nothing
is done to prevent it.
        Deserts are eating land at high speed. In China, desertification (沙漠化) has affected 2,622,000 square
kilometres, equal to 14 Guangdong Provinces, mostly in the North. Deserts are advancing at a pace of 2,460
kilometres per year.
       According to the UN, one-third of the planet's land surface, with one billion people, has become desert.
Africa, Asia and Latin America have the driest land in danger of desertification.
        Recognizing the threat (威脅) to human beings, the United Nations has named 2006 the International
Year of Deserts and Desertification.
        It wants to increase public awareness (關(guān)注) of advancing deserts. Activities include a film festival in
Rome with films on life in unproductive (貧瘠的) lands. Meetings will discuss international cooperation, such
as planting trees and changing agricultural practices.
        Desertification takes place where rain is little and the climate hot. But human activities are the biggest
cause. Land turns into desert when the soil is over-farmed and too many animals eat up plants. To make
money, people also cut down trees that hold the soil. Desertification brings serious problems. From 1991 to
2000, droughts (干旱) killed over 280,000 people worldwide. When land becomes useless, there's a big loss
in food production.     
        Dust from deserts is blown into cities around the world. Each spring, Beijing is at risk of yellow dust
from the Gobi Desert. Dust from Africa reaches cities in the US and Europe, leading to illnesses and
worsening environments.
1. Which of the following is Not mentioned in the passage?
[     ]
A. The bad influences of deserts.
B. How serious desertification is.
C. What makes land turn into desert.
D. The ways to change deserts into farms.
2. The purpose of writing the first paragraph is to _______.
[     ]

A. serve as a picture of a large desert
B. show how important water is to humans
C. draw your attention to the problem of desertification
D. show how much is needed to be done to change deserts

3. We can know from the passage that _______.
[     ]
A. deserts can be easily seen in both hot and dry places
B. one third of the area in Africa has become desert
C. the UN has made many films on desertification in 2006
D. dealing with desertification needs world-wide cooperation
