Have yu ever run int a careless cell phne user n the street? Perhaps they were busy talking, texting r checking updates n WeChat withut lking at what was ging n arund them. As the number f this new “species” f human has kept rising, they have been given a new name — phubbers（低头族）.
Recently, a cartn created by students frm China Central Academy f Fine Arts put this grup f peple under the sptlight. In the shrt film, phubbers with varius scial identities(身份) bury themselves in their phnes.

The Wrld Health Organizatin warns that millins f peple are dying every year frm indr air pllutin. Nearly three billin peple are unable t use clean fuels and technlgies fr cking, heating as well as lighting.
These findings shw that the use f deadly fuels in inefficient stves, space heaters r lights is t blame fr many f these deaths.
WHO fficials say indr pllutin leads t early deaths frm strke, heart and lung disease, childhd pneumnia and lung cancer. Wmen and girls are the main victims. These diseases can ften result frm the burning f slid fuels. These fuels include wd, cal, animal waste, crp waste and charcal.
The United Natins fund that mre than 95 percent f husehlds in sub-Saharan Africa depend n slid fuels fr cking. It says huge ppulatins in India, China and Latin American cuntries, such as Guatermala and Peru,are als at risk.
Nigel Brace is a prfessr f Public Health at the University f Liverpl. He says researchers are develping gd ck-stves and ther equipment t burn fuels in a mre efficient way.There are already multiple technlgies available fr use in clean fuels.There is really quite an effective and reasnably lw-cst alchl stve made by Dmetic (a Sweden-based cmpany) that is nw being tested ut. LPG (Liquefield Petrleum Gas) ck is bviusly widely available and effrts are under way t make thse efficient. Anther interesting develpment is electric inductin stves. WHO experts nte that sme new, safe and lw-cst technlgies that culd help are already available. In India, yu can buy an inductin stve fr abut $8.00. And in Africa yu can buy a slar lamp fr less than $1.00.
But this,the agency says, is just a start. It is urging develping cuntries t use cleaner fuels and increase access t cleaner and mre mdern cking and heating appliances/devices.
8. What des the indr pllutin mainly result frm?
A. Pisnus fuels.B. High technlgy.C. Space heaters.D. Slar energy.
9. Hw is Paragraph 3 mainly develped?
A. By shwing differences.B. By describing a prcess.
C. By making a list.D. By analyzing data.
10. What can we infer frm the passage?

D. There is n indr pllutin in develped cuntries.
11. Which f the fllwing is TRUE accrding t the passage?

Antarctica is knwn fr being a vast land f ice and snw, a place t cld fr mst life. Despite this, the cntinent is slwly starting t turn warm. Accrding t the Guardian, the Antarctic has registered a new high temperature fr the first time n recrd, prmpting fears f climate instability in the wrld’s iciest place.
On Feb 9, Brazilian researchers at Seymur Island reprted a temperature f 20.75℃ n the icy cntinent f Antarctica. It was almst a full degree higher than the previus recrd f 19.8℃, taken n Signy Island (西格尼岛) in January 1982.
This recrd-breaking reading was taken at a mnitring statin in the nrthern part f Antarctica. Accrding t Brazilian sil scientist Carls Schaefer, the temperature was dcumented during a 20-year-lng research prject. The fcus f this prject is t study the effect that climate change has n the permafrst (永久冻土) within the regin. Permafrst is sil that stays frzen fr at least tw years. Althugh this is a first recrd high fr Antarctica, Schaefer stressed that “We can’t use this t anticipate climatic changes in the future. It’s simply a signal that smething different is happening in that area.”
But in fact, the last high temperature reading was in the 19℃ range. These higher temperatures can cause ice and glaciers in Antarctic regins t melt. The Antarctic peninsula (半岛)--the lng finger f land that stretches twards Argentina--is mst dramatically affected. Scientists saw glaciers that have retreated by mre than 100 meters in Discvery Bay where the snw melted in little mre than a week, leaving dark expsed rck. This melted ice leads t a rise in sea levels that can threaten the safety f castal areas. It’s believed t be behind an alarming decline f mre than 50 percent in chinstrap penguin (帽带企鹅) clnies, which are dependent n sea ice.
Like American writer Ernest Hemingway nce said, “The Earth is a fine place and wrth fighting fr.” We shuld d everything we can t help save ur planet. Otherwise, it may becme t ht fr us t fix.
12. What did Brazilian researchers reprt n Feb 9?
A. Seymur Island is the warmest regin in the Antarctic.
B. Antarctica hit a recrd high temperature f 20.75℃.
C. The average temperature f Antarctica ranges frm 19.8℃ t 20.75℃.
D. Antarctica’s new recrd temperature is a full degree higher than the previus decade.
13. What’s the main purpse f the 20-year-lng research prject?
A. T predict pssible climatic change in the future.
B. T mnitr Antarctica’s cntributins t wrld climate change.
C. T explain why the permafrst may cause glaciers t melt.
D. T examine hw the permafrst is influenced by climate change.
14. What des the underlined wrd “retreated” prbably mean?
A. mved backward.B. increased in size.
C. cvered a certain area.D. stretched in an ppsite directin.
15. What is the main idea f the last paragraph?
A. The Earth will be htter and htter.
B. The high temperature can cause ice in Antarctica melt.
C. Peple shuld spare n effrt t prtect the earth and the envirnment.
D. A rise in sea levels can threaten the safety f castal areas.
