But a new study in Friday's edition of the journal Science found a drought-related decline in such plant growth from 2000 to 2009, even though temperatures continued to climb.As drought caused by warming reduces the land's ability to take in carbon, the result could be more carbon dioxide left in the atmosphere, and thus more warming, Zhao Maosheng from the University of Montana explained in a telephone interview.“This is a pretty serious warning that warmer temperatures are not going to endlessly improve plant growth，”co-author Steven Running, also from the University of Montana, said in a statement.“We see this as a bit of a surprise, and potentially significant on a policy level because previous interpretations（理解、说明） suggested global warming might actually help plant growth around the world，”he said. Instead, he and Zhao found a small but measurable decline of about 1%, compared to a 6% increase in the past decade.Their study, based on the data collected by NASA satellites, found that north areas continued to increase plant growth, thanks to warmer temperatures and a longer growing season.Someone commented，“This past decade's net decline in earthly productivity suggests that a complex relationship between temperature, rainfall, cloudiness, and carbon dioxide，probably in combination with other factors such as nutrients（营养物） and land management, will determine future patterns and trends in productivity（生产率或生产效率）.”21．From the first paragraph, we can learn ________ in the recent decade or so.A．the emission（排放） of carbon hasn't been reducedB．drought has been causing loss of soil and waterC．carbon dioxide levels have been risingD．the rise of temperature doesn't promote the plant growth22．Zhao Maosheng really worried that ________.A．more and more land will be abandonedB．the climate becomes warmer and warmerC．the emission of carbon dioxide increasesD．drought further reduces the number of the plants23．We can infer from the passage that ________.A．global warming will determine the future productivityB．various factors play a key role jointly（联合地、共同地） on future productivityC．earthly productivity actually increased in the past decadeD．temperature rise has had no effect on future productivity patternsBAs the new term starts, freshmen around the world are asking the same question: how can I make the best of four years at college? The New York Times received suggestions recently from PhD students and seniors at some of the top US universities. Here's their advice.“Many young people today are raised in a protective cocoon (茧)”， wrote Tim Novikoff, a PhD student at Comell.“College is a time to explore the world beyond and a chance to learn new things about yourself. Take classes in different subjects. Try lots of different clubs and activities.”Remember also to take some time away from campus, suggested Willie Lin, a student at WashingtonUniversity.“If_you_spend_all_of_your_time_in_school,_then_it_becomes_too_easy_to_let_critici-sm_from_an_unkind_professor_or_a_conflict_with_a_roommate_take_up_large_pro-portions.（比例、成分）”Try to find work assisting a researcher or a professor — this is the advice from Aman Singh Gill, a PhD student at Stony Brook University. And he also said，“With a window into the world of research, you will find yourself thinking more critically, accepting fewer states at face value and perhaps developing a brave sense of what you can accomplish.”Many young people cannot imagine even a single day without devices such as computers and cellphones. But try to keep yourself off them, cautioned Christine Smallwood, a PhD student at Columbia University.Start by scheduling a few Internet-free hours each day，with your phone turned off. It's the only way you'll be able to read anything serious.“This will also have the benefit of making you harder to reach, and thus more mysterious and fascinating to new friends and acquaintances (熟人)，” she suggested.24．The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 means we should ________.A．spend more time at schoolB．take some time out of schoolC．listen to criticism moreD．not argue with roommates25．Who thinks it is important to consider something critically?A．Tim Novikoff.　　　　　B．Aman Singh Gill.C．Christine Smallwood. D．Willi河南省信阳高级中学2015-2016学年高二下学期第一次月考英语试题
