8、ears, more and more people have been paying for things with credit cards. There are now 565 million credit cards worldwide, but it doesnt stop there. Debit cards (电子记账卡) are being issued by banks, and store cards are being offered by many department stores. Bills and coins are gradually being replac
9、ed by “plastic money.“ In many countries, phone cards have been introduced for people to use in pay phones. In addition, cards made of paper are being replaced by plastic ones by many organizations and clubs. For example, if you belong to a sports club, your membership card may well be made of plast
10、ic.How safe is the plastic used to make these cards, though? Until now, most cards have been made from a plastic called PVC. While PVC is being produced, harmful chemicals are released into the atmosphere. One of the most dangerous chemicals that is released is dioxin, which is known to cause cancer
11、 in humans. A further problem is that, when a PVC card is thrown away, it is not biodegradable; this means that it does not “break down“ and cannot be recycled. Obviously, recycling reduces pollution of the environment.The executive director of the environmental organization and charity Greenpeace,
12、Peter Melchett, says, “If there is a solution to this-and an alternative then it would be madness not to use it.“ Greenpeace has found a solution and an alternative. Their new credit card is made entirely from a biodegradable plastic that uses plants. The card breaks down in around three months in s
13、oil; in this way, it is recycled. In contrast, a PVC card lasts for centuries. Greenpeace hopes that many organizations will soon follow their example and issue cards that do not threaten the public health.(分数:7.00)(1).Fewer and fewer credit cards are made of paper.A. Right B.

31、e 300 meters up, near the Eiffel Towers wind-whipped summit the world comes to scribble. Japanese, Brazilians, Americans they graffiti their names, loves and politics on the cold iron - transforming the most French of monuments into symbol of a world on the move.With Paris laid out in miniature belo
32、w, it seems strange that visitors would rather waste time marking their presence than admire the view. But the graffiti also raises a question: Why, nearly 114 years after it was completed, and decades after it ceased to be the worlds tallest structure, is la Tour Eiffel still so popular?The reasons
33、 are as complex as the iron work that graces a structure some 90 stories high. But part of the answer is, no doubt, its agelessness. Regularly maintained, it should never rust away. Graffiti is regularly painted over, but the tower lives on.“Eiffel represents Paris and Paris is France. It Is very sy
34、mbolic,“ says Hugues Richard, a 31-year-old Frenchman who holds the record for cycling up to the towers second floor - 747 steps in 19 minutes and 4 seconds, without touching the floor with his feet. “Its iron lady, it inspires us,“ he says.But to what? After all, the tower doesnt have a purpose. It
35、 ceased to be the worlds tallest in 1930 when the Chrysler Building went up in New York. Yes, television and radio signals are beamed from the top, and Gustave Eiffel, a frenetic builder who died on December 27, aged 91, used its height for conducting research into weather, aerodynamics and radio co
36、mmunication.But in essence the tower inspires simply by being there - a blank canvas for visitors to make of it what they will. To the technically minded, its an engineering triumph. For lovers, its romantic.“The tower will outlast all of us, and by a long way,“ says Isabelle Esnous, whose company m

38、 Tower is the tallest building in the world.D. The Eiffel Tower represents all the towers in the world.(分数:3.00)A.B.C.D.(2).What seems strange to the author?A. Visitors prefer wasting time scribbling to enjoying the view.B. Visitors spends much time watching other people scribbling.C. Only Japanese,

These large-scale underground blazes ca
43、use the ground temperature to heat up and kill surrounding vegetation, produce greenhouse gases and can even ignite forest fires, a panel of scientists told the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Denver. The resulting release of poisonous elements like arsen
44、ic and mercury can also pollute local water sources and soils, they warned.“Coal fires are a global catastrophe,“ said Associate Professor Glenn Stracher of East Georgia College in Swainsboro, USA. But surprisingly few people know about them.Coal can heat up on its own, and eventually catch fire and
45、 burn, if there is a continuous oxygen supply. The heat produced is not caused to disappear and under the right combinations of sunlight and oxygen, can trigger spontaneous catching fire and burning. This can occur underground, in coal stockpiles, abandoned mines or even as coal is transported. Such
46、 fires in China consume up to 200 million tones of coal per year, delegates were told. In comparison, the U.S. economy consumes about one billion tones of coal annually, said Stracher, whose analysis of the likely impact of coal fires has been accepted for publication in the International Journal of
47、 Coal Ecology. Once underway, coal fires can bum for decades, even centuries. In the process, they release large volumes of greenhouse gases, poisonous fumes and black particles into the atmosphere.The members of the panel discussed the impact these fires may be having on global and regional climate
48、 change, and agreed that the underground nature of the fires makes them difficult to detect. One of the members of the panel, Assistant Professor Paul Van Dijk of the International Institute for Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation in the Netherlands, has been working with the Chinese gover
49、nment to detect and monitor fires in the northern regions of the country.Ultimately, the remote sensing and other techniques should allow scientists to estimate how much carbon dioxide these fires are emitting. One suggested method of containing the fires was presented by Gary Colaizzi, of the engineering firm Goodson, which has developed a heat-resistant grout (a thin mortar used to fill crack
