The document summarizes a children's story about a town called Chewandswallow where an inventor creates a machine that turns water into food, causing food to rain down from the sky. This led to benefits like solving world hunger but also disadvantages like creating a mess and health issues. Eventually, the excessive food caused problems as food tornadoes and pools of nacho cheese formed, leading to the downfall of the town which got too greedy.

Weather script
William Sullivan gave the weather forecast, reporting that patches of rain in the south midlands would gradually disperse, causing minor drizzles. Later, patches of snow were expected in the north midlands, hovering towards the central midlands with temperatures dropping to -3°C. In the south midlands, temperatures would range from 7-2°C with occasional scattered fog. Over the following days, only a few patches of rain were expected across the midlands with infrequent sunshine, though temperatures and conditions would gradually improve over the week and into the weekend.

Ningchen- English Project
The document discusses the causes and effects of global warming. The main causes are burning fossil fuels, deforestation, overproduction, and increased CO2 levels. Some effects of global warming include rising temperatures, melting glaciers and sea ice, and faster sea level rise. If warming continues, hurricanes and storms are expected to intensify, floods and droughts will increase, fresh water availability will decline, and ecosystems will be disrupted. Reducing fossil fuel use, planting trees, and cutting greenhouse gas emissions are proposed to mitigate global warming impacts.
Portfolio byrom 2006

Quaternary Science Conference - KensingtonChelseaToday
The summary discusses a conference held by the Quaternary Research Association to celebrate their 50th anniversary. Over 300 scientists attended the conference to discuss climate change research focusing on the Quaternary period from the last 2.6 million years. Speakers discussed how rising sea levels are more complex than initially thought, being influenced by the location of melting ice and seismic activity. They provided an example of an event 8,400 years ago where melting ice caused a surge of freshwater that may have triggered a tsunami and caused sea levels to rise rapidly. The research aims to better predict future climate change and sea level rises.

Iceland, the land of fire and ice
Iceland is located near the Arctic Circle and is a land of extremes, with large glaciers existing alongside some of the most active volcanoes in the world. It has over 100 volcanoes, around 30-40 of which are still active, including Mt. Hekla which has erupted 18 times since 1104. Iceland also has hot springs, geysers, and uses geothermal energy extensively to heat homes. The landscape features waterfalls, lava fields, basalt cliffs and pillars, and is shaped by volcanic eruptions and river erosion. Wildlife includes puffins, ducks, and few flowering plant species that have adapted to the harsh environment.
The little ice age
The Little Ice Age occurred between the 16th and 19th centuries, causing global cooling and harsh winters in Europe and North America. Evidence from tree rings, historical accounts, and ice cores indicate temperatures dropped following major volcanic eruptions in the tropics in 536 and 540 AD. These eruptions likely included Krakatoa and released sulfuric acid aerosols that blocked sunlight for years and had widespread effects on agriculture. During this cold period, vineyards shriveled and northerners developed fermentation of grains like barley and rye, inventions that led to the development of scotch whiskey and other spirits.
3. NEW CLIMATE LAND”THE JAKOBSHAVN GLACIER on the west c.docx
“3. NEW CLIMATE LAND”
“THE JAKOBSHAVN GLACIER on the west coast of Greenland is the fastest-moving glacier on Earth. It’s also one of the most photographed, drawing climate paparazzi from around the world. If you’ve seen images of enormous chunks of ice falling off the sapphire-blue face of a glacier in news reports or documentaries, you’ve probably seen the Jakobshavn. It’s the Kim Kardashian of glaciers—fast and unpredictable but symbolic of changes in our world in a way that makes it difficult to ignore. On my flight from Copenhagen to Kangerlussuaq, a town in southern Greenland that is the main launching point for visits to the ice sheets, I was, I admit, excited about the prospect of seeing the famous glacier up close.”
“My guide for the trip was Jason Box, an American climatologist who was working for the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland, a quasigovernmental agency that has a keen interest in understanding what is going on with the Greenland ice (Greenland, a former province of Denmark, is still a territory of the Danish kingdom). Box is a young maverick scientist and Greenland ice junkie who got a lot of attention in 2012 when he publicly predicted just weeks before the summer melt season began that Greenland would experience a record-breaking year for ice melt. And he was right. During the summer of 2012, a heat wave warmed the Arctic much more than climate models had predicted, and the Greenland ice started melting like ice cream on a summer sidewalk. Usually, only the lower elevations of Greenland melt during the summer; in 2012, melting was recorded on the entire surface of the ice sheet, including the highest elevations. Aerial photos showed rivers of luminous blue water flowing across the surface of the ice sheet, disappearing into what scientists call moulins, which are basically big holes in the ice where the rivers waterfall down to the interior of the glacier. “The melt of 2012 attracted international media attention, and a YouTube video of a tractor being washed down a river swollen with meltwater in Kangerlussuaq attracted millions of viewers.”
“When I met Box at the Kangerlussuaq airport, he had that scientist-in-the-wild look—scruffy, windblown hair, a big black duffel bag over his shoulder. With his goatee and gently rebellious manner, Box has the air of a skate punk made good. After chatting for a few minutes, he and I headed out into Kangerlussuaq. The town, such as it is, sprang up around the runway, which was built by the US military during World War II—and it still feels like a military base, with Quonset huts transformed into shops and hotels. I was surprised by the number of middle-aged people in town wearing new North Face jackets. “Disaster tourism,” Box explained. “They’re here to say goodbye to the ice sheets.”
“We checked into what Box called the “science hotel” on the edge of town. It was basically a Quonset hut outfitted with beds and cable TV. We went for a quick evening walk, and Box showed ...

A.为什么留学生需要操作留信认证?
留信认证全称全国留学生信息服务网认证,隶属于北京中科院。①留信认证门槛条件更低,费用更美丽,并且包过,完单周期短,效率高②留信认证虽然不能去国企,但是一般的公司都没有问题,因为国内很多公司连基本的留学生学历认证都不了解。这对于留学生来说,这就比自己光拿一个证书更有说服力,因为留学学历可以在留信网站上进行查询!
B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？
查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径但认证只是个体行为不是所有留学生都操作所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单就有了使用价值。乌龟和王八贼头贼脑的倒也逗人喜爱日上三竿时山娃总爱窜进自家瓜棚里跟小伙伴们坐着聊天聊着聊着便忍不住往瓜田里逡巡一番抱起一只硕大的西瓜用石刀劈开抑或用拳头砸开每人抱起一大块就啃啃得满嘴满脸猴屁股般的红艳大家一个劲地指着对方吃吃地笑瓜裂得古怪奇形怪状却丝毫不影响瓜味甜丝丝的满嘴生津遍地都是瓜横七竖八的活像掷满了一地的大石块摘走二三只爷爷是断然发现不了的即便发现爷爷也不恼反而教山娃辨认孰熟孰嫩孰甜孰淡水
