2017年1月14日雅思阅读预测【小范围】原文:THE LITTLE ICE AGE
A This book will provide a detailed examination of the Little Ice Age and other climatic shifts, but, before I embark on that, let me provide a historical context. We tend to think of climate — as opposed to weather — as something unchanging, yet humanity has been at the mercy of climate change for its entire existence, with at least eight glacial episodes in the past 730,000 years. Our ancestors adapted to the universal but irregular global warming since the end of the last great Ice Age, around 10,000 years ago, with dazzling opportunism. They developed strategies for surviving harsh drought cycles, decades of heavy rainfall or unaccustomed cold; adopted agriculture and stock-raising, which revolutionised human life; and founded the world's first pre-industrial civilisations in Egypt, Mesopotamia and the Americas. But the price of sudden climate change, in famine, disease and suffering, was often high.
B The Little Ice Age lasted from roughly 1300 until the middle of the nineteenth century. Only two centuries ago, Europe experienced a cycle of bitterly cold winters; mountain glaciers in the Swiss Alps were the lowest in recorded memory, and pack ice surrounded Iceland for much of the year. The climatic events of the Little Ice Age did more than help shape the modern world. They are the deeply important context for the current unprecedented global warming. The Little Ice Age was far from a deep freeze, however; rather an irregular seesaw of rapid climatic shifts, few lasting more than a quarter-century, driven by complex and still little understood interactions between the atmosphere and the ocean. The seesaw brought cycles of intensely cold winters and easterly winds, then switched abruptly to years of heavy spring and early summer rains, mild winters, and frequent Atlantic storms, or to periods of droughts, light northeasterly winds, and summer heat waves.
C Reconstructing the climate changes of the past is extremely difficult, because systematic weather observations began only a few centuries ago, in Europe and North America. Records from India and tropical Africa are even more recent. For the time before records began, we have only 'proxy records' reconstructed largely from tree rings and ice cores, supplemented by a few incomplete written accounts. We now have hundreds of tree-ring records from throughout the northern hemisphere, and many from south of the equator, too, amplified with a growing body of temperature data from ice cores drilled in Antarctica, Greenland, the Peruvian Andes, and other locations, we are close to a knowledge of annual summer and winter temperature variations over much of the northern hemisphere going back 600 years.
D This book is a narrative history of climatic shifts during the past ten centuries, and some of the ways in which people in Europe adapted to them. Part One describes the Medieval Warm Period, roughly 900 to 1200. During these three centuries, Norse voyagers from Northern Europe explored northern seas, settled Greenland, and visited North America. It was not a time of uniform warmth, for then, as always since the Great Ice Age, there were constant shifts in rainfall and temperature. Mean European temperatures were about the same as today, perhaps slightly cooler.
E It is known that the Little Ice Age cooling began in Greenland and the Arctic in about 1200. As the Arctic ice pack spread southward, Norse voyages to the west were rerouted into the open Atlantic, then ended altogether. Storminess increased in the North Atlantic and North Sea. Colder, much wetter weather descended on Europe between 1315 and 1319, when thousands perished in a continent-wide famine. By 1400, the weather had become decidedly more unpredictable and stormier, with sudden shifts and lower temperatures that culminated in the cold decades of the late sixteenth century. Fish were a vital commodity in growing towns and cities, where food supplies were a constant concern. Dried cod and herring were already the staples of the European fish trade, but changes in water temperatures forced fishing fleets to work further offshore. The Basques, Dutch, and English developed the first offshore fishing boats adapted to a colder and stormier Atlantic. A gradual agricultural revolution in northern Europe stemmed from concerns over food supplies at a time of rising populations. The revolution involved intensive commercial farming and the growing of animal fodder on land not previously used for crops. The increased productivity from farmland made some countries self-sufficient in grain and livestock and offered effective protection against famine.
F Global temperatures began to rise slowly after 1850, with the beginning of the Modern Warm Period. There was a vast migration from Europe by land-hungry farmers and others, to which the famine caused by the Irish potato blight contributed, to North America, Australia, New Zealand, and southern Africa. Millions of hectares of forest and woodland fell before the newcomers' axes between 1850 and 1890, as intensive European farming methods expanded across the world. The unprecedented land clearance released vast quantities of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, triggering for the first time humanly caused global warming. Temperatures climbed more rapidly in the twentieth century as the use of fossil fuels proliferated and greenhouse gas levels continued to soar. The rise has been even steeper since the early 1980s. The Little Ice Age has given way to a new climatic regime, marked by prolonged and steady warming. At the same time, extreme weather events like Category 5 hurricanes are becoming more frequent.

以下是这篇文章的答案解析,一起来具体的了解一下:
Question 14
答案: ii
关键词: 根据段落选择,无题干关键词
定位原文: B段第1句“The Little Ice Age…”
解题思路: 本段第3句说“小冰河期的气候 不仅仅是帮助形成了现今的世界”,原 文中的 modern world 对应选项 ii 中的 today,小冰期大致从公元1300年持续到19世纪中期,且整段话就是在描述小冰期对于现在的一些影响。因此答案为ii。
Question 15
答案: vii
关键词: 根据段落选择,无题干关键词
定位原文: D段第1句“This book is a narrative…”
解题思路: the past ten centuries 对应选项 vii 中的 a thousand years,文章中 a narrative history of climatic shifts 对应选项 vii 中的 study, D段首句强调,该书的内容是对1000年来气候变化的描述以及欧洲人的适应方式。因此答案为vii。
Question 16
答案: ix
关键词: 根据段落选择,无题干关键词
定位原文: E段最后1句“The increased productivity…”
解题思路: E段末句指出,部分国家在粮食和家畜方面的自给自足为抵制饥荒提供了有效保障。因此答案为ix。
Question 17
答案: iv
关键词: 根据段落选择,无题干关键词
定位原文: F段第1、2句“Global temperatures began to…”
解题思路: F段首句和次句指出,全球气温的上升引起了大规模的人口迁徙,随后描述了其对气候变化的影响。因此答案为iv。
Question 18 & Question 19
答案: B C (in either order)
关键词: documentation of past weather conditions, sources, distant past
定位原文: C段第2句“For the time before…”
解题思路: 此题定位较难,在C段中扫描到第2句结束才会发现past的反义词recent, 但也说明从其后开始就是答案的出处。空格中所填词应为对于过去气候认识的来源。
Question 20
答案: A
关键词: consistent freezing
定位原文: B段第5句“The Little Ice Age was far from a deep…”
解题思路:此题定位很难,出现了严重的乱序。定位词对应B段定位句中的deep freeze。空格中所填词应与consistent freezing的意思相反(rather than)。故此题答案为A。
Question 21
答案: H
关键词: cold winters, heavy rain
定位原文: B段最后1句“The seesaw brought…”
解题思路:此题按照顺序原则较易定位。空格中所填词应与heavy rains形成并列。故此题答案为H。
Question 22
答案: G
关键词: yet, no rain at all, cold winters
定位原文: B段最后1句“The seesaw brought…”
解题思路: 此空所填词为with no rain所修饰的对象,其对应文中的droughts。通过扫读剩余选项以及文中的对应句,很容易得到答案。故此题答案为G。
Question 23
答案: C
关键词: Europeans, farming abroad
定位原文: F段内容“...with the beginning of the Modern Warm Period. There was a vast migration from Europe by land-hungry farmers and others,... ”
解题思路: 此题定位较易,根据定位词很容易找到对应段落,可知本题描述的是Modern Warm Period。故此题答案为C。
Question 24
答案: C
关键词: cutting down of trees
定位原文: F段第3句“Millions of hectares of forest…”
解题思路:砍伐树林开始影响气候。此题定位较容易,定位句指出,数百万公顷的森林和林地毁于拓荒者的斧下,并引起第一次人为的全球变暖。且此段整段均在谈论Modem Warm Period。故此题答案为C。
Question 25
答案: A
关键词: Europeans, discovered, other lands
定位原文:D段第2、3句“Part One describes the…”
解题思路:此题定位较易,在定位的第二句中指出,古斯堪的纳维亚的航海者们从欧洲北部出发探索北海,在格陵兰岛定居,并探访了北美大陆。故此题答案为A。
Question 26
答案: B
关键词: changes, fishing patterns
定位原文:E段倒数第4句“The Basques, Dutch,…”
解题思路:此题定位后需要略读的内容较多,但是通过fishing还是较易定位。文中指出,巴斯克人、荷兰人和英国人最先造出了能够适应在寒冷多风暴的大西洋中航行的离岸渔船。故此题答案为B。

5、In some countries, a high proportion of criminal acts are committed by teenagers. Why has this happened? What can be done to deal with this?
下文是小编为大家分享的这个写作题目的写作范文,一起来了解一下:
In recent years, the proportion of crimes committed by teenagers has increased dramatically and this has caused a widespread discussion. Media violence and unstable family life may be the two main factors leading to adolescents’ criminal tendency. Both of them will be discussed in detail below, followed by solutions.
The lack of family life should take responsibility for juvenile delinquency. Most parents educate their children in an impropriate way like beating and abusing. Even now, may parents still hold a view that a good son is a product of the rod. This educational method will leave children a misleading impression about violence when they are very young, and they are more likely to become real offenders in the future. To solve this problem, parents should adjust parenting at home, interacting with their children more frequently and giving more attention and care especially emotional needs.
Excessive exposure to media violence also plays a big role in the increase of youth crime. As we all know, the violence shots are prevalent in many films and TV games, which affects young people the most. Teenagers who lack self-discipline tend to imitate their fantasy hero’s criminal behavior after watching action films in real situations. Actually, these teenagers are misled by their heroes. In this case, the government should set a rating and censorship system in order to control the amount of violence, threat and horror on screen.
In conclusion, family life and media violence are main triggers of juvenile delinquency. Parents should transform their ways to care and educate their children. Meanwhile, governments should provide a healthy environment on the screen.
