The cost and benefits of global warming will vary greatly from area to area. For moderate climate change, the balance can be difficult to assess. But the larger the change in climate, the more negative the consequences will become. Global warming will probably make life harder, not easier, for most people. This is mainly because we have already built enormous infrastructure based on the climate we now have. People in some temperate zones may benefit from milder winters, more abundant rainfall, and expanding crop production zones. But people in other areas will suffer from increased heat waves, coastal erosion, rising sea level, more erratic rainfall, and droughts. 
The crops, natural vegetation, and domesticated and wild animals (including seafood) that sustain people in a given area may be unable to adapt to local or regional changes in climate. The ranges of diseases and insect pests that are limited by temperature may expand, if other environmental conditions are also favorable. In its summary report on the impacts of climate change, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change stated, "Taken as a whole, the range of published evidence indicates that the net damage costs of climate change are likely to be significant and to increase over time."

A. predictable 	B. unchangeable 	C. changeable 	D. unpredictable 
Question 40: What may happen to diseases and insect pests as a result of global warming? 
A. They will increase in number 	B. They will become extinct 
C. They will not harm our planet 	D. They will be under good control

A. All people benefit from global warming 	B. Life is easier for most people 
C. All people suffer from global warming 	D. Life is more difficult for the majority of people 
Question 42: In paragraph 1, the word "this" refers to ______.
A. easier life as a result of global warming B. harder life as a result of global warming 
C. flood in low-lying areas 	D. climate change on global scale

A. Environment pollution is real 	B. Solutions to global warming.

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 following questions from 44 to 50. 
Obesity is associated with a shorter lifespan and with an increased risk of many chronic diseases. The good news is that just being somewhat overweight does not reduce your longevity, and for those over the age of 65, it is actually better to be on the high side of normal than the low side. 
A 2018 study (part of the Framingham heart study) looked at body mass index and mortality over a period of 24 years. For those who were obese, people that had a body mass index of 30 to 35 had a 27% increase in mortality, and those who had a body mass index of 35 to 40 had a 93% increase. 
What weight is ideal? Among those who were overweight but not obese (had a body mass index between 25 and 30), mortality was only increased among those who also smoked. People with a body mass index on the high side of normal (e.g. 24) had the lowest mortality. 
There isn't any real magic when it comes to maintaining (or getting to) a normal body mass index. Eating a healthy diet, not too much and avoiding empty calorie, and exercising daily, even if it's fun activities such as gardening, are the true "secret." 
In the past, eating breakfast was stressed as necessary for optimal health. Research is now changing that thought, and intermittent fasting (going for 13 or more hours each day without eating) may have some benefits. Though the concept and research to back it up are young, intermittent fasting may help with weight loss and appears to have benefits in cancer risk reduction as well. 
If you are struggling, talk with your doctor. But keep in mind that fad diets do not work, and your greatest chance of success lies in adopting long-term healthy eating patterns and engaging in regular physical activity for life.
