Greenhouse Effects":

GLOBAL WARMING MAP: Greenhouse Effects Unfortunately global warming is well under
way. Here are some telltale signs. Carbon dioxide and other gases from the burning of fossil
fuels collect in the atmosphere and act like the glass walls of a greenhouse, trapping heat
on the earth's surface. Scientists predict that the planet's average temperature could rise as
much as 6.3 degrees F (3.5 degrees C) over the next century, and we are already seeing
heat waves, melting polar ice and rising seas.
Local impact remains unpredictable: some areas could suffer stronger storms and other
places severe drought. Seven environmental groups -Environmental Defense Fund, Natural
Resources Defense Council, Sierra Club, Union of Concerned Scientists, U.S. Public
Interest Research Group, World Resources Institute and World Wildlife Fund - have put
together a world map showing "early-warning signs" of global warming. Reviewed by a
team of scientists, the signs fall into two categories: direct manifestations of warming, called
fingerprints, and events that could become more frequent and widespread with climate
change, which are labeled harbingers. Here's an advance look at the highlights of the map

Saying "NO" to bullies!

Bullying is when someone continually insults or hurts you. Many young people are bullied at
school. But there are some positive ways to solve the problem.

Tom Cruise, Peter Andre, and Michelle Pfeiffer have something in common: they were all
bullied at school. These stars that bullying does not necessarily stop you from being
successful, says Kids cape, a children's organization in Britain.

Kids cape has some original ways of stopping bullies. The "bully box", for example, is a box
in school where students put notes about bullying. The important thing is to tell an adult
about the bully.

Teachers usually learn how to recognize when a kid is being bullied but sometimes schools
can't solve the problem. In a recent case in Britain, the police arrested a 16-year-old girl for
bullying a 12-year-old girl. The younger girl's mother said the school hadn't solved the
problem, which had become very serious. So she went to the police.

But most bullies are stopped by the school or by the kids themselves. At the Martial Arts for
Peace association in America, Dr Terence Webster-Doyle suggests discussing the problem
openly with the bully. Dr Webster-Doyle teaches martial arts for self-defense, not for
fighting. He says that if you know you can defend yourself, "you are not afraid of the other ".

What does the text suggests to the reader?

Select one:
a. That everybody is able to solve situations related to bullying

b. That bulling is a phenomenon difficult to identify

c. That there are some strategies to identify and fight against bullying
Correct: It says that there are some positive ways to deal with bullying situations.

d. That bullying is an important matter because some actors have been victims of
it

Question 8 Reading Section

1.00 points out of
1.00

The past couple of decades have seen the rise of a class of professionals in their 20s and
30s who typically have high disposable incomes and few responsibilities. The rise of women
in paid employment and the corresponding increase in disposable income has fuelled the
increase in alcohol consumption. Young women -those without family responsibilities- seem
best able to fund the habit. The tendency towards "extended youth" -people putting off
marriage and children- may well have contributed towards the trend of higher consumption
of alcohol, among both women and men.
