【題目】Have you ever seen a greenhouse? Most greenhouses look like a small glass house.

Greenhouses are used to grow plants, especially in winter.Greenhouses work by trapping heat from the sun, the glass panels() of the greenhouse let light in, but keep heat from escaping.This causes the greenhouse to heat up, much like the inside of the parked in sunlight, and keeps the plants warm enough to live in winter.

The earth's atmosphere is all around us.It is the air that we breathe.Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere behave much like the glass panels in a greenhouse.Sunlight enters the Earth's atmosphere, passing through the blanket of greenhouse gases.As it reaches the Earth's surface, land, water, and biosphere(生物圈), they take up the sunlight's energy.Once the heat is taken up, this energy is sent back into the atmosphere.Some of the energy passes back into space, but much of it remains trapped in the atmosphere by the greenhouse gases, causing our world to heat up.

The greenhouse effect is important.Without the greenhouse effect, the Earth would not be warm enough for humans to live.But if the greenhouse effect becomes stronger, it could make the earth warmer than usual.Even a little extra warming may bring problems to humans, plants, and animals.

【題目】Eric Liddell was known as the flying Scotsman(蘇格蘭人) because he ran so fast. But he is most remembered as a man of honour and bravery.

He was born in 1902 in Tianjin, northern China. In Chinese, he was known as Li Airui. Eric lived in China until the age of five. After that his parents sent him to school in England. In 1920, Eric went to the University of Edinburgh to study science.

Sports played a large part in his life and he became the fastest runner in Scotland. He was chosen to be part of Britain's 1924 Olympic team. The games were in Paris. The 100metre race was his best event, but it was to be held on a Sunday. Eric,a strong Christian(基督教徒), refused to run on Sundays because he believed that it should be a day of rest as the Bible(圣經(jīng)) teaches.

Although many people told him to run the race, he refused. Instead he started to train for other distances. At the Olympics he won a bronze medal in the 200metre race and then a gold medal in the 400metre race, setting a world record.

Though then famous in Scotland, Eric still loved and remembered China. He wanted to go back to the country where he was born. In 1925, he went to China and worked as a middle school teacher in Tianjin. Then he went to Hebei Province to help the poor people there.

After the Japanese invaded(入侵) China, Eric chose to stay. He wanted to help the sick and give hope to the Chinese people. In 1943, the Japanese sent him to a prison camp(集中營) in Weifang. Even in the camp, he continued to help the old people. He also arranged games for the children, and taught them science.

In 1945, Eric was very ill. He was given a chance to leave the camp but he refused. Instead he gave this chance to a pregnant woman. The inspiring man died six months before the end of the war. Many people still remember his service to the Chinese people of that area.

1Eric went to England to ________.

A. go to school

B. help the Scottish people
