Interglacial periods are, typically, periods of time

18、 between Ice Ages, when the climate warms, and the glacial ice retreats for a time, before things cool off again and another Ice Age begins. And for over the past several million years, Earths sort of default climate has actually been Ice Age, but we have experienced periodic regular thaws, and the

19、last one, the one we are in now, started about 11 thousand years ago. Now, the typical pattern for an interglacial period, and we have studied several, is that the concentration of carbon dioxide and methane gas actually reaches its peak, that is, there is the most carbon dioxide and methane gas, th

20、at is, being greenhouse gases in the atmosphere just after the beginning of the interglacial period. And then, for reasons which are not entirely clear, the concentration of greenhouse gases gradually goes down. Now, the climate continues to warm for a while because there is a lag effect. But gradua

21、lly as the concentration of greenhouse gases goes down, Earth starts to cool again, and eventually you slip back into an Ice Age. Um, however, for the latest interglacial period, the one we are in now, this pattern did not hold, that is, the concentration of carbon dioxide and methane dipped a littl

22、e bit after peaking at the beginning, near the beginning of the interglacial period, but then it began to rise again. Um.What was different about this interglacial period than the other ones? Well, one of the big differences is human activity. People began to raise crops and animals for food instead

23、 of hunting for them. This is the agricultural revolution. And it began to happen in the earliest stages about 11 thousand years ago. Now, scientists have tended to regard the agricultural revolution as a beneficiary of the fortuitous shift in climate. However, some new theorists of climate have pro

24、posed that perhaps humanity was having an effect on the climate as far back as the beginnings of the agricultural revolution. When you grow crops and pasture your animals, one of the things you do is you cut down the forests. If you cut down the forests, when you burn the trees for fuel and dont rep

25、lace them with other trees, or when you just leave them to rot and dont allow other trees to grow, you end up with a lot more carbon in the form of carbon dioxide getting into the atmosphere. Another gas associated with the spread of agriculture is methane. Methane forms in large concentration above

26、 wetlands, and as it turns out, the cultivation of certain grains creates vast areas of artificial wetlands, and probably drastically increases the amount of methane getting into the atmosphere, over and above what would be there. So, agriculture, the spread of agriculture, you know we are talking o

27、ver thousands of years, but-this could very well have a profound effect on the composition of Earths atmosphere. Its kind of ironic to think that absent that effect, it may be that we would be heading into an Ice Age again. In fact, back in the 1970s, a lot of theorists were predicting that, you kno

28、w, the climate would start to cool and wed slowly enter into the new Ice Age. And then they were puzzled as to why it didnt seem to be happening. Um.now, what are the implications for the future? Well, it is a little tricky. I mean, you could say, well, here is an example of human activity, the agri

29、cultural revolution, which actually was beneficial, we altered the climate for the better, perhaps, by preventing an Ice Age. But then industrialization, of course, has drastically increased the amount of carbon dioxide that humans are putting into the atmosphere, the burning of fossil fuels tends t

30、o put a lot of CO2 into the atmosphere. So we are entering into uncharted territory now, in terms of the amount of carbon dioxide, the concentrations of carbon dioxide that are now being put into the atmosphere as a result of industrialization and the use of fossil fuels.填空项 1:_ （正确答案：typical）解析：填空项

It is hard to imagine that when a Noble Prize Winner in Economics was asked about the family and personal finance,

38、 he would drop head and smile a bit shylyyesterday afternoon, Paul Krugman, the 2008 Nobel Prize Winner in Economics, appeared in Shanghai Jiao Tong University and in the 50-minute interview before the speech, the reporter got to know the uniqueness of this star professor. “I disapprove of excessive

39、 personal debt, especially the debt brought about by excessive investment in real estate.“ Professor Krugman delivered a speech with the theme of “the Future of Sino-US Economy under the New Pattern“ in Shanghai Jiao Tong University, and accepted the appointment from Shanghai Jiao Tong University to

40、 be honorary professor of Antai College of Economics and Management, Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Hence, he will carry out regular academic exchanges in Shanghai from now on. “Who is the bread-earner of the family?“ Facing this question, Paul Krugman was a little shy, and he lowered his head, smil

41、ed and answered after a long time: “We jointly earn the bread, for the reason that the majority of my income comes from the economic books I write and my wife takes part in my writing. And to my column, she always contributes many ideas.“ Nevertheless, when asked about how to invest, Professor Krugm

42、an is rather prudential. “Ive bought quite a few bonds, all of which are underestimated bonds, and also the funds. Of course, such investments are risky.“ He said frankly. “I dislike having too much debt, and I dont have much. I think both individuals and government should reduce their debt. Although now the government w
