El Nino （厄爾尼諾現(xiàn)象）

While some forecasting methods had limited SUCCESS predicting the 1997 E1 Nino a few months in advance，the Columbia University researchers say their method call predict large E1 Nino events up to two years in advance．That would be good news for governments，farmers and others seeking to plan for the droughts and heavy rainfall that El Nino can produce in various parts of the world.

Using a computer the researchers matched sea-surface temperatures to later El Nino occurrences between 1980 and 2000 and were then able to anticipate E1 Nino events dating back to1857, using prior sea-surface temperatures．The results were reported in the latest issue of the journal Nature．

The researchers say their method is not perfect, but Bryan C．Weare．a(chǎn) meteorologist at the University of California, Davis，who was not involved in the work，said it“suggests‘E1 Nino is indeed predictable．”

“This will probably convince others to search around more for even better methods．”said Weare．He added that the new method“makes it possible to predict El Nino at 1ong lead times．” Other models also use sea-surface temperatures, but they have not looked as far back because they need other data，which is only available for recent decades，Weare said．

The ability to predict the warming and cooling of the Pacitic is of immense importance’．The 1997 El Nino，for example，caused an estimated$20 billion in damage worldwide，offset by beneficial effects in other areas，said David Anderson，of the European Centre for Medium．Range Weather Forecasts in Reading England．The 1877 El Nino，meanwhile，coincided with a failure of the Indian monsoon and a famine that killed perhaps 40 million in India and China。prompting the development of seasonal forecasting，Anderson said．

When El Nino hit in 199 1 and 1997.200 million people were affected by flooding in China alone．a(chǎn)ccording to a 2002 United Nations report．

While predicting smaller E1 Nino events remains tricky．the ability to predict larger ones should be increased to at least a year if the new method is confirmed．

E1 Nino tends to develop between April and June and reaches its peak between December and February．The warming tends to last between 9 and 1 2 months and occurs every two to seven years·

The new forecasting method does not predict any major El Nino events in the next two years, although a weak warming toward the end of this year is possible．

E1 Nino n．厄爾尼諾現(xiàn)象

Equatorial adj．赤道的

Occurrence n．發(fā)生

Meteorologist n．氣象學家

Offset v．抵銷

Lead adj．提前的

More than 8 hours sleep too much of a good thing

Although the dangers of too little sleep are widely known，new research suggests that people who sleep too much may also suffer the consequences．

Investigators at the University of California in San Diego found that people who clock up 9 or 10 hours each weeknight appear to have more trouble falling and staying asleep，as well as a number of other sleep problems，than people who sleep 8 hours a night．People who slept only 7 hours each night also said they had more trouble falling asleep and feeling refreshed after a night’s sleep than 8-hour sleepers．

These findings, which DL Daniel Kripke reported in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine, demonstrate that people who want to get a good night’s rest may not need to set aside。more than 8 hours a night．He added that“it might be a good idea#39;’for people who sleep more than 8 hours each night to consider reducing the amount of time they spend in bed, but cautioned that more research is needed to confirm this．

Previous studies have shown the potential dangers of chronic shortages of sleep一for instance, one report demonstrated that people who habitually sleep less than 7 hours each night have a higher risk of dying within a fixed period than people who sleep more．

For the current report，Kripke reviewed the responses of 1，004 adults to sleep questionnaires，in which participants indicated how much they slept during the Week and whether they experienced any sleep problems．Sleep problems included waking in the middle of the night，arising early in the morning and being unable to fall back to sleep，and having fatigue interfere with day-to-day functioning．

KriDke found that people who slept between 9 and 10 hours each night were more likely to report experiencing each sleep problem than people who slept 8 hours．In an interview, Kripke noted that long sleepers may struggle to get rest at night simply because they spend too much time in bed．As evidence，he added that one way to help insomnia is to spend less time in bed．“It stands to reason that if a person spends too long a time in bed, then they’ll spend a higher percentage of time awake．”he said．

1. Paragraph 2 ___.

2. Paragraph 4___.

3. Paragraph 5___.

4. Paragraph 6___.

A. Keprike’s research tool

B. Dangers of Habitual shortages of sleep

C. Criticism on Kripke’s report

Ford Abandoned Electric Vehicle

The Ford motor company’s abandonment of electric cars effectively signals the end of the road for the technology，analysts say．

General Motors。and Honda’ceased production of battery．powered cars in 1 999, to focus on fuel cell and hybrid electric gasoline engines, which are more attractive to the consumer．Ford has now announced it will do the same．

Three years ago．the company introduced the Think City two—seater car and a golf cart called the THINK, or Think Neighbor．It hoped to sell 5，000 cars each year and 10，000 carts．But a lack of demand means only about l，000 of the cars have been produced，and less than 1。700 carts have been sold so far in 2002．

“The bottom line is we don’t believe that this is the future of environment transport for the mass market．”Tim Holmes of Ford Europe said on Friday．“We feel we have given electric our best shot”

The Think City has a range of only about 53 miles and up to a six-hour battery recharge time．General Motors’EVI electric vehicle also had a limited range。of about 100 miles．

The very expensive batteries also mean electric cars cost much more than petrol-powered alternatives．An electric Toyot~RAV4 EV vehicle costs over$42，000 in the US, compared with just $17，000 for the petrol version．Toyota and Nissan…are now the only major auto manufacturers to produce electric vehicles．

“There is a feeling that battery electric has been given its chance．Ford now has to move on with its hybrid program“，and that is what we will be judging them on，”Roger Higman，a senior transport campaigner at UK Friends of the Earth，told the Environment News Service．

Hybrid cars introduced by Toyota and Honda in the past few years have sold well．Hybrid engines Offer Greater mileage than petrol—only engines , and the batteries recharge themselves. Ford says it thinks such vehicles will help it meet planned new guidelines“on vehicle emissions” in the U.S.

However, it is not yet clear exactly what those guidelines will permit．In June，General Motors and Daimler Chrysler won a court injunction，delaying by two years Californian legislation requiring car—makers to offer 100，000 zero-emission and other low—emission vehicles in the state by 2003．Car manufacturers hope the legislation will be rewritten to allow for more low--emission，rather than zero—emission，vehicles．

1.What have the Ford motor company．General Motor’s and Honda done concerning electric cars?

A)They have started to produce electric cars．

B)They have done extensive research on electric Cars

C)They have given up producing electric cars．

D)They have produced thousands of electric Cars

2.According to Tim Holmes of Ford Europe，battery-powered cars

A)will be the main transportation vehicles in the future

B)will not be the main transportation vehicles in the future．

C)will be good to the environment in the future

D)will replace petrol—powered vehicles in the future．

3. Which auto manufacturers are still producing electric vehicles?

A)Toyota and Nissan

B)General Motor’s and Honda

C)Ford and Toyota

D)Honda and Toyota

4.According to the eighth paragraph，hybrid cars

A)offer fewer mileage than petrol driven cars

B)run faster than petrol driven cars

C)run more miles than petrol driven cars

D)offer more batteries than petrol driven cars

5.Which of the following is true about the hope of car manufacturers according to the last paragraph?

A)Low-emission cars should be banned．

B)Only zero-emission cars are allowed to run on motorways．

C)The legislation will encourage car makers to produce more electric cars．

D)The legislation will allow more 10w．emission to be produced．
