Quite a few

8、 people living near airports also become deaf.

12、ng blocked, not moving ahead. It is an evil circle. Failure causes fatigue, and fatigue makes it harder to get to work, which adds to the fatigue.We experience this tiredness in two main ways: start-up fatigue and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keep putting off a task that we are forced

13、 to take up. Either because it is too boring or because it is too difficult, we avoid it. And the longer we put it off, the more tired we feel.Such start-up fatigue is very real, although not actually physical, not something in our muscles and bones. The cure is obvious, though perhaps not easy to a

14、pply: willpower exercise. The moment I find myself turning away from a job, or putting it under a pile of things I have to do, I clear my desk of everything else and attack the difficult item first. To prevent start-up fatigue, always treat the most difficult job first.Performance fatigue is more di

15、fficult to handle. Here we are willing to get started, but we cant seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear to be insurmountable and however hard we work, we fail again and again. The mounting experience of failure carries with it an ever-increasing burden of mental fatigue. In such a situa

16、tion, I work as hard as I can, and then let the unconsciousness take over.7. Which of the following can be called an evil circle?A. Failure-tiredness-failure-tirednessB.

But scientists have warned that as the hole closes up in the next few decades, temper

19、atures on the continent could rise by around 3 on average, with melting ice contributing to a global sea level increase of up to 1.4 metres.In the past decades the western Antarctic has seen rapid ice loss as the world has warmed, but the other parts of the continent have, paradoxically, been coolin

20、g, resulting in a 10% increase in ice in the seas around the region. This is because the hole in the ozone layer has increased cold winds in Antarctica, making much of the continent surface colder than usual.But now that the gasses that cause the ozone hole have been banned, scientists expect the ho

21、le to repair itself within the next 50 to 60 years. By then the cooling effect will have faded out and the Antarctic will face the full impact of global warming. This means an increase in average air temperatures of around 3 and a reduction in sea ice by around a third.The biggest threat to the cont

22、inent comes from warming seas. Robert Johnson, a scientist who monitors Antarctica ice sheets, said, The ice sheets in Antarctica are hundreds of metres thick. But once warm ocean waters start flowing underneath, the ice will begin thinning and could break up very quickly. Thinning ice sheets cause

23、ice to break away from the continent and to melt even faster. Escaping ice from western Antarctica has already resulted in a 10% rise in global sea level in recent decades.Johnson believes that international action to reduce global warming is required immediately or it may be too late. Everything is

24、 connected - Antarctica may be a long way away but it is an important part of the Earths system， said Johnson.

25、expect the ice to entirely disappear, but predict that, because of the melting ice sheets, average sea level rise will be around 1.4 metres higher by the end of the century.11.
