Global emissions of carbon dioxide from fossil fuel burning jumped by the largest amount on record in 2010 Emissions rose 5.9 percent in 2010, according to an analysis released on Sunday by the Global Carbon Project

Scientists said the increase was almost certainly the largest absolute jump in any year since the Industrial Revolution The increase solidified a trend of ever-rising emissions that will make it difficult, if not impossible, to stop severe climate change in coming decades

The burning of coal represented more than half of the growth in emissions, the analysis found

In the United States, emissions dropped by a remarkable 7 percent in the year of 2009, but rose by over 4 percent in 2010, the new analysis shows

“Each year, emissions go up, and there’s another year of negotiations, another year of indecision,” said Glen P Peters, a researcher at the Center for International Climate and Environmental Research “There’s no evidence that this path we’ve been following in the last 10 years

is going to change.”

Scientists say the rapid growth of emissions is warming the Earth and putting human welfare

at long-term risk But their increasingly urgent pleas that society find a way to limit emissions have

met sharp political resistance in many countries because doing so would involve higher energy costs

The new figures show a continuation of a trend in which developing countries have surpassed the wealthy countries in their overall greenhouse emissions In 2010, the burning of fossil fuels and the production of cement sent more than nine billion tons of carbon into the atmosphere, the new analysis found, with 57 percent of that coming from developing countries

On the surface, the figures of recent years suggest that wealthy countries have made

headway in stabilizing their emissions But Dr Peters pointed out that, in a sense, the rich countries have simply exported some of them

The fast rise in developing countries has been caused to a large extent by the growth of energy-intensive manufacturing industries that make goods that rich countries import “All that has changed is the location in which the emissions are being produced,” Dr Peters said

Many countries, as part of their response to the economic crisis, invested billions in programs designed to make their energy systems greener While it is possible, the new numbers suggest they have had little effect so far

Question 37: According to the passage, the report found that the burning coal accounts for _ of the increase in total emissions

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 43 to 50

An air pollutant is defined as a compound added directly or indirectly by humans to the

atmosphere in such quantities as to affect humans, animals, vegetation, or materials adversely Air

pollution requires a very flexible definition that permits continuous changes When the first air pollution laws were established in England in the fourteenth century, air pollutants were limited to compounds that could be seen or smelled- a far cry from the extensive list of harmful substances known today As technology has developed and knowledge of health aspects of various chemicals has increased, the list of air pollutants has lengthened In the future, even water vapor might be considered an air pollutant under certain conditions

Many of more important air pollutants, such as sulfur oxides, carbon monoxides and nitrogen oxides are found in nature As the Earth developed, the concentration of these pollutants was altered

by various chemical reactions; they became components in biogeochemical cycles These serve as an

air purification scheme by allowing the compounds to move from the air to the water or soil On a global basis, nature's output of these compounds dwarfs that resulting from human activities

However, human production usually occurs in a localized area, such as a city In such region, human output may be dominant and may temporarily overload the natural purification scheme of the

cycles The result is an concentration of noxious chemicals in the air The concentrations at which

the adverse effects appear will be greater than the concentrations that the pollutants would have in the absence of human activities The actual concentration need not be large for a substance to be a pollutant; in fact, the numerical value tells us little until we know how much of an increase this represents over the concentration that would occur naturally in the area For example, sulfur dioxide has detectable health effects at 0.08 parts per million (ppm), which is about 400 times its natural

level Carbon monoxide, however has a natural level of 0.1 ppm and is not usually a pollutant until its level reaches about 15 ppm

Question 43: What does the passage mainly discuss?

A The effects of compounds added to the atmosphere

B The economic impact of air pollution

C What constitutes an air pollutant

D How much harm air pollutants can cause

Question 44: The word “adversely” is closest in meaning to _

Question 45: It can be inferred from the first paragraph that _

A the definition of air pollution will continue to change

B water vapor is an air pollutant in localized areas

C most pollutants today can be seen or smelled

D a substance becomes an air pollutant only in cities

Question 46: The word “These” in the second paragraph refers to _

A the compounds moved to the water or soil B the various chemical reactions

C the pollutants from the developing Earth D the components in biogeochemical cycles

Question 47: According to the passage, human-generated air pollution in localized regions _

A will react harmfully with natural pollutants

B can overwhelm the natural system removing pollutants

C will damage area outside of the localized regions

D can be dwarfed by nature's output of pollutants

Question 48: The word “noxious” is closest in meaning to _

Question 49: According to the passage, the numerical value of the concentration level of a

substance is only useful if _

A the other substances in the area are known B it can be calculated quickly

Question 50: For which of the following reasons can natural pollutants play an important role in

controlling air pollution?

A They have existed since the Earth developed

B They occur in greater quantities than other pollutants

C They're less harmful to living beings than other pollutants

D They function as part of a purification process
