2025年,全球环境与气候变化问题依然严峻。中国在污染防治方面取得了显著进展,例如2024年全国重污染天数比率降至0.9%,北京仅出现2个重污染天,为历年最少。京津冀及周边地区、汾渭平原等重点区域仍面临结构性污染问题,大气污染物排放强度是全国平均水平的3倍以上。同时,全球气候变化带来的极端天气频发,科学家预测2025年可能迎来极寒时代,这与大西洋经向翻转环流(AMOC)的减弱密切相关,可能导致北半球气温骤降,影响全球气候格局。
2025年,极端天气已成为“新常态”。中央气象台多次发布大风、寒潮、大雾、暴雪等预警,提醒公众提前做好防范。例如,寒潮来袭时,气温骤降,水管冻裂、供暖中断等问题频发,给日常生活带来诸多不便。大雾天气则导致能见度降低,交通事故风险增加,出行安全受到威胁。此外,暴雨和干旱交替出现,部分地区从洪涝灾害迅速转为干旱,农作物减产,水资源短缺问题加剧。
为应对气候变化,我们每个人都应从身边小事做起。例如,减少一次性塑料使用,选择公共交通或骑行出行,节约用水用电,积极参与垃圾分类等。这些看似微小的行动,积少成多,能为环境保护贡献巨大力量。面对极端天气,科学防范至关重要。例如,寒潮来临前,及时检查家中供暖设备,储备应急物资;大雾天气减少外出,驾车时开启雾灯,保持安全距离;暴雨期间避免前往低洼地带,关注气象预警信息。
环境与气候变化关乎每个人的未来。让我们从点滴做起,节约资源、保护环境,为应对极端天气和实现可持续发展贡献力量!只有全社会共同努力,才能守护我们共同的家园,迎接更加绿色、美好的明天!

Passage A
The environment and climate change are among the most pressing issues 1 (face) humanity today. As the Earth’s climate continues 2 (change) at an unprecedented (史无前例地) rate, the consequences are becoming increasingly evident. Rising global temperatures, melting ice caps, extreme weather events 3 loss of biodiversity are just a few of the many challenges we face. This article explores the causes, impacts and potential solutions 4 climate change, emphasizing the urgent need for collective action.
Climate change is 5 (primary) driven by the increase in greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the Earth’s atmosphere. These gases, such as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O), trap heat and cause the planet to warm. Human 6 (activity) are the main contributors to this increase. The burning of fossil fuels for energy, deforestation, industrial processes and agricultural practices 7 (lead) to a significant rise in GHG emissions over the past century.
Deforestation, in particular, plays 8 double role in worsening climate change. Trees act as carbon sinks, absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere. When forests 9 (clear), not only is this carbon storage capacity lost, but the carbon 10 (store) in trees is released back into the atmosphere, further accelerating global warming.
Passage B
The effects of climate change are far-reaching and multifaceted (多层面的). One of the most visible impacts is 1 rise in global temperatures. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the Earth’s average surface temperature 2 (increase) by approximately 1.1°C since the pre-industrial era. This warming has led to 3 (frequent) and severe heatwaves, droughts and wildfires.
Another significant impact is the melting of polar ice caps and glaciers. This has contributed to rising sea levels, 4 threaten coastal communities and ecosystems. Low-lying islands and cities are particularly vulnerable, with some facing the risk of 5 (swallow) completely in the coming decades.
Climate change also alters weather patterns completely, leading to more intense storms, hurricanes and floods. These extreme weather events can cause widespread 6 (destroy), displacement of populations and loss of life. 7 (additional), changes in temperature and precipitation (降水) patterns affect agriculture, leading to food insecurity in many parts of the world.
Biodiversity is also under threat. Many species are struggling 8 (adapt) to the rapid changes in their habitats, leading to shifts in ecosystems 9 , in some cases, extinction. Coral reefs, for example, are highly sensitive to temperature changes and are experiencing widespread bleaching events, which can have shocking effects 10 marine life.

Passage 1
China’s first national park in the Sanjiangyuan area, 1 (cover) a total area of 123,100 square kilometers, will open in 2020 on schedule. Sanjiangyuan, the source of the Yangtze, Yellow and Lancang 2 (river), is home to hundreds of species of wild animals. It is also the world’s 3 (high) nature reserve with an average altitude of 4,700 meters.
The environment had 4 (previous) worsened due, to climate changes and human activities. Since the trial operation of the park in 2016, the ecological environment of the area has greatly improved. The grassland coverage of the area has risen to 11 percent and grass, output jumped 30percent compared with the last decade. 5 number of wild animals has also seen a rapid increase.
Unlike nature reserves, 6 protect unique species, national parks stress the protection of the entire ecosystem. The foundation of the Sanjiangyuan National Park is of great 7 (significant)to the security of water resources and the protection of rare animals and plant species, and also 8 (mark) the standardization of how natural reserves are managed in China.
Under the national park management, herdsmen and farmers will be turned 9 the central forces of environmental protection at Sanjiangyuan. The work is expected to provide jobs, increase incomes and improve people’s motivation 10 (protect) the environment.
Passage 2
Sizing Up Carbon Footprints
Kelsey Schroeder was “born green”, according to her mother, and she takes that environmental 1 (enthusiastic) to class with her at the Oak Knoll School of the Holy Child in Summit, N.J.. The 12-year-old 2 (be) a driving force in greening her school since she was a fourth-grader. But 3 really motivates kids — especially the sort of achievers who attend an exemplary private school like Oak Knoll—is a little competition. So when Schroeder and her classmates found out about a website launched last year 4 sets teams from around the country against one another in a contest to see who could be 5 (green), they jumped on board. Her seventh-grade Royal Acorns team is Carbonrally.com’s the most recent champion, 6 (save) 11.21 tons of climate-changing CO2 to date.
7 Americans grow more green-minded, more of them want to approach environmentalism in concrete terms. Thanks to websites like Carbonrally, one increasingly popular way to do so is by measuring and measurably 8 (reduce) our carbon footprints. The more dependent we are 9 fossil fuels, the bigger our carbon footprints. A recent study by a class at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology found that even 10 homeless American would have a carbon footprint of 8.5 tons—twice the global average. “It seems logical that we would want to contribute to the solution.” says Katherine Wroth, a senior editor at the green website Grist.org.
Passage 3
More and more children are suffering from eco-anxiety, which is 1 problem that causes people to worry a lot about the future of Earth and the life on it. They worry about climate change, 2 (pollute) and the loss of biodiversity. This has urged education experts 3 (call) for more teaching in schools about climate change, wildlife and the environment. So necessary is knowledge of them nowadays 4 experts believe it should be taught to all year groups.
The Teach the Future campaign finds that only one in four schoolchildren 5 (feel) they know enough about the climate crisis. It says this is leading to move children 6 (struggle) with eco-anxiety and worrying about the planet. A conservation organization, Earth Rangers, 7 (take) action to address the problem of eco-anxiety since it noticed that.
It says, Eco-anxiety does have a big effect 8 children in many ways. This includes feelings of fear and hopelessness. It is 9 (importance) to research and understand the ways in which we can help children deal with these feelings 10 (effective). In the meanwhile, schools should create conservation activities and help children teach their parents how to protect nature.
Passage 4
For 30 years we have been told how temperatures have been soaring to unheard-of levels.
This is causing polar ice to melt (融化), sea level 1 (rise) and has brought about a dangerous increase in extreme weather 2 (event), such as hurricanes, heatwaves, droughts and floods. These climate changes would likely present challenge to our society and environment. It is now a global concern 3 the climate changes occurring today have been severer because of man’s activities.
4 (trouble) by the serious situation, world leaders came together for talks, which were seen 5 a make-or-break situation for the United Nations climate talks.
The climate talks 6 (lead) to about 200 hundred countries reaching an agreement that would, for 7 first time, commit nearly every country to lowering planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions (释放) to address global climate change. That was 8 (certain)an encouraging step forward for our earth and mankind.
As the world leaders continue to commit 9 (they) to monitoring our “sick” planet. we need to continue to take small steps to “heal” the world. We are left with not much of a 10 (choose). If only we could just pack our bags and move to Mars!
Passage 5
China has detailed measures to boost its climate change monitoring and risk prevention capabilities, marking a significant step forward in the country’s efforts 1 (enhance) its climate resilience (气候适应性).
The country will seek to build a climate-resilient society 2 climate change monitoring and early warning capability will reach an advanced level globally and the climate risk management and prevention system will 3 basic mature, according to the national climate change adaptation strategy 2035, jointly 4 (publish) by 17 departments including the Ministry of Ecology and Environment.
The first time China 5 (issue) a national climate change adaptation strategy, China took measures to prevent and control major climate-related disaster risks 6 an effective manner, and greatly improved the technical and standard system for adapting to climate change. Since then, positive results 7 (achieve) in improving adaptation to climate change in key regions and industries.
As the global climate 8 (far) warms, the long-term unfavorable effects and extreme weather events brought about by climate change will pose 9 increasingly serious threat to China’s economic development. The document underlined measures to improve climate change monitoring and forecasting services, enhance assessment of climate change impacts and risks, and 15 (strength) disaster prevention.
Passage 6
Establishing a Greener World
Climate change and pollution are issues 1 affect us all. Recently, the environment around us has been damaged 2 (severe), causing drought, flood and other disasters all over the world. Many people who thought 3 the government’s responsibility to deal with it don’t believe they have power to do anything to improve our environment. That’s not true. Together, individuals can make 4 difference. The release of the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide in the air actually comes 5 a result of many things we do every day. Here are a few 6 (suggest) on how to reduce it.
If we don’t use electrical appliances such as the bulb, the TV, the computer and so on, 7 (plug) them immediately. Please use sustainable energy as much as possible, so walk or ride a bike to school or use a bike 8 (power) by solar. We should use some reusable things made from recycle materials. What’s more, plant more trees as they can absorb carbon dioxide and give out a large amount of fresh air. Besides, persuade and urge everyone around us 9 (take) action to protect the environment.
What we do must contribute 10 a greener world.
Passage 7
Coffee is probably world’s least expensive success power tool to increase focus, drive and even the life span. 1 (fortunate) we may not be enjoying its benefits or pleasure too much longer. According to ecologists, there is a good chance 2 the varieties of coffee that we drink today 3 (be) extinct in 20 or 30 years. The problem, of course, is the pace of climate change.
Coffee is a crop that is only grown in a thin band 4 (call) the “coffee belt” close to equator (赤道), which is extremely vulnerable (易受...伤害的) to climate change. If the air is too hot 5 too cold, it prevents the growth of coffee plant. Climate change also creates 6 (environment) stress, which spreads pests and plant diseases. Almost all the coffee grown in the world today is one of two species, arabica or robuasta, both of 7 might be wiped out in this way. There are other species existing only in Ethiopia, 8 country that climate change is happening. In other words, climate change is eating away the root source that we might turn to 9 replacement species.
What to do? Well, take the time 10 (enjoy) each cup of coffee you drink.
Passage 8
Recently Australia has listed the koala as an endangered species across most of 1 (it) east coast, after a dramatic decline in numbers because 2 land clearing, bushfires, drought, disease and other threats. The federal government has been urged to do more 3 (protect) koalas from rapidly decreasing habitats and climate change.
“This listing adds priority when it comes to the 4 (conserve) of the koala,” Environment Minister said on Friday. She said officials were designing a recovery plan, and land development application would now be assessed for impacts on the species.
Last year, a New South Wales survey found koalas would be extinct there by 2050 5 there was urgent action. It estimated that the Black Summer bushfires of 2019-2020 had killed 5,000 koalas and affected 24% of habitats in New South Wales alone.
“Koalas have gone from no-listing to vulnerable (易危物种) to endangered within a decade. That is a 6 (shocking) fast decline,” said a scientist. “Today’s decision is welcome, but it won’t stop koalas 7 (slide) towards extinction unless it 8 (accompany) by stronger laws.”
Scientists warn that climate change will also 9 (worse) bushfires and drought, and reduce 10 quality of koalas’ eucalyptus (桉树) leaf diet.
Koalas are also found in South Australia and Victoria but their numbers are on the decrease nationally, according to protection groups.
