Pre-reading
1. What extreme weather and disasters do you know? Floods, droughts, heatwaves, wildfires, hurricanes, typhoons, sandstorms, melting glaciers, sea level rise.

Para 1
What is the problem about climate change? The global average surface temperature has risen sharply, bringing serious changes to the planet. Evidence 1: Global average surface temperature has increased by around 0.8℃ since 1880. Evidence 2: The last decade has been the warmest on record. Evidence 3: Extreme weather events are becoming more common and severe worldwide.
Para 2
1. What is the root cause? Human activities → large amounts of greenhouse gas released → man-made greenhouse effect → global temperature rise → broken ecosystem & wildlife crisis
2. B
3. C
4. B
5. C
6. B
Para. 3
1. Function of natural greenhouse effect: It traps heat from the sun to keep the Earth warm enough for all living things to survive. Man-made greenhouse effect problem: Human activities produce too much greenhouse gas, trapping too much heat and overheating the Earth.
2. It keeps the planet at a livable temperature. Without it, the Earth would be freezing cold and no life could exist.
3. Global temperature rises, sea ice melts, sea levels go up, ecosystems break down and wildlife loses homes.
Para.4
1. Consequences of global temperature rise
lead to melting polar sea ice example: Polar bears lose hunting grounds result: Polar bears starve and face extinction
lead to rising sea levels example: Coastal cities and islands get flooded result: People lose homes and land disappears
2. To stress that global warming is a serious urgent threat and remind readers to take action before it’s too late.
Para.5
1. Cut down greenhouse gas emissions: use clean renewable energy, reduce fossil fuel use, plant more trees, save energy in daily life, limit carbon release from factories and transport.
2. To inform readers about the causes and serious harm of global warming and call on people to take practical measures to protect the Earth.
