14、her study and became a member of the zoology (动物学) staff at the University of Maryland.For fifteen years, Rachel worked for the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, writing and editing publications. Fortunately, her employer encouraged her to reach a larger audience. Rachels poetic style of writ
15、ing in three books about the ocean caught the imagination of the general reader. Her rare talent as both a physical scientist and a gifted writer earned her the National Book Award for the Sea Around Us.Rachels next book marked her as a leading fighter for the preservation of the natural environment
16、. She began writing Silent Spring, knowing that she would be personally attacked and ridiculed. She continued writing despite the ill health that slowed her progress. Upon completing the book, she wrote to a close friend, “I have felt obliged to do what I could if I didnt at least try I could never
17、again be happy in nature. But now I believe I have at least helped a little. “Rachel Carson did more than help a little.

But they can say one thing for sure: sea levels will rise.This rising water will
21、 be felt along the artificially maintained beaches of New Jersey, in the vanishing marshes of Louisiana, even on the ocean cliffs of California. According to a 2000 report by the Heinz Center for Science, Economics and the Environment, at least a quarter of the houses within 500 feet of the United S
22、tates coast may be lost to rising seas by 2060. There were 350,000 of these houses when the report was written, but today there are far more.Though most of the countrys ocean beaches are eroding, few coastal jurisdictions(管辖权) consider sea level rise in their coastal planning, and still fewer incorp
23、orate the fact that the rise is accelerating. Instead, they are sticking with policies that geologists say may help them in the short term but will be untenable(站不住脚的) or even destructive in the future.Florida is a good example.

27、 an oceanographer who conducts shoreline research for the United States Geological Survey in St. Petersburg. “So people with a sea wall and a beach in front of it will end up with just a sea wall.“ 35 As far as the possible effects of global warming mentioned in this passage are concerned, scientist
