Unusual incidents are being reported across the Arctic. Inuit（因紐特人）families going off on snowmobiles to prepare their summer hunting camps have found themselves cut off from home by a sea of mud. There are also reports of sea ice breaking up earlier than usual, carrying seals beyond the reach of hunters. Climate change may still be a rather abstract（抽象的）idea to most of us, but in the Arctic it is already having great effect—if summertime ice continues to shrink at its present rate, the Arctic Ocean could soon become almost ice-free in summer. The knock-on effects（連鎖反應(yīng)）are likely to include more warming, cloudier skies and higher sea levels. Scientists are increasingly eager to find out what’s going on in the Arctic.

     For the Inuit the problem is urgent. They live in unsteady balance with one of the toughest environments on earth. Climate change, whatever its causes, is a direct danger to their way of life. Nobody knows the Arctic as well as the locals, which is why they are not content simply to stand back and let outsider experts tell them what’s happening. In Canada, where the Inuit people are trying hard to guard their hard-won autonomy（自治權(quán)）in the country’s newest land, Nunavut, they believe their best hope of survival in this changing environment lies in combining their ancestral (祖先的) knowledge with the best of modern science. This is a challenge in itself.

     The Canadian Arctic is a vast, treeless polar desert that’s covered with snow for most of the year. Adventure into this area and you get some idea of the hardships facing anyone who calls this home. Farming is out of the question and nature offers few pickings. Humans first settled in the Arctic a mere 4,500 years ago, surviving by taking advantage of sea first. The environment tested them to the limits: sometimes the settlers were successful; sometimes they failed and disappeared. But around a thousand years ago, one group appeared that was uniquely well adapted to deal with the Arctic environment. These Thule people moved in from Alaska, bringing dogs, iron tools and the like. They are the ancestors of today’s Inuit people.

Which of the following is likely to be the effect of climate change?

  A. Shorter and shorter summertime.     B. Ice-free summer around the Arctic.

  C. Lower sea levels.                  D. More rainy skies.

The Inuit people believe the solution to the climate change problem is ________.

  A. to change their way of life

  B. to do as their ancestors

  C. to try to protect the environment from now on

  D. to use their ancestral knowledge and modern science

It can be concluded from the last paragraph that ________.

  A. the first settlers in the Arctic survived there quite easily

  B. it’s hard to farm in the Arctic due to climate change

  C. the ancestors of Inuit people stood out among the settlers

  D. the Thule people from Alaska invented iron tools

Which of the following is the best title for this text?

A. Climate Change and the Inuit       

B. Climate Change around the Arctic

C. Global Warming around the World   

D. The Inuit and Their Ancestors around the World

Some American parents might think their children need better education to compete with China and other countries’ children． But how much do the parents themselves need to change?

A new book Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother written by Amy Chua has caused a debate about cultural differences in parenting． Ms． Chua is a professor at the Yale Law School in New Haven, Connecticut, and a mother of two daughters． She was raised in America by immigrant Chinese parents． In her book, Ms． Chua wrote about how she demanded excellence from her daughters． For example, she threatened to burn her daughter’s dolls unless she played a piece of music perfectly． She would scold her daughters if they failed to meet her expectations．

Ms． Chua had a clear list of what her daughters, Sophia and Louisa, were not permitted to do: “Attend a sleepover, have a play date, watch TV or play computer games, be in a school play, get any grade less than an A．” Many people criticize Amy Chua, saying her parenting methods were cruel and violent． She even admits that her husband, who is not Chinese, sometimes objected to her parenting style． But she says that is the way her parents raised her and her three sisters．

Ms． Chua says she eased some of the pressure after her younger daughter rebelled and shouted “I hate my life! I hate you!” But she also says American parents often have low expectations of their children’s abilities． Amy Chua thinks one of the biggest differences between Western and Chinese parents is that Chinese parents take on strength rather than fragility．”

Stacy DeBroff, who has written four books on parenting, says: “Parents should rethink, what does it mean to be a successful parent and what does it mean to be a successful child?” She says Amy Chua’s parenting style is not limited to Chinese families． It represents a traditional way of parenting among immigrants seeking a better future for their children． But she also sees a risk． When children have no time to be social or to follow their own interests, they might not develop other skills that they need to succeed in life． Stacey DeBroff advises parents to develop their own style of parenting and not just repeat the way they were raised．

1.Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother is mainly about ___________．

    A． how to teach children to learn music

    B． how to change the ways of parenting

    C． Amy Chun’s experience in parenting

D．  Amy Chun’s reflection of her family life

2.The underlined word “rebelled” in Paragraph 4 probably means “____________”．

    A． disobeyed       B． succeeded       C． failed          D． panicked

3. According to Ms． Chua, Chinese way of parenting is powerful because ____________．

   A． parents set good examples to children

   B． parents understand their children better

   C． parents usually treat their children as friends

   D． parents have high expectations of their children

4.What is Stacy DeBroff’s warning to immigrant parents?

   A． Don’t expect too much from their children．

   B． Don’t allow them to communicate with others．

   C． Don’t give them freedom to do what they want to．

   D． Don’t bring up their children as their parents did．
