Major causes of record fires sweeping across the Amazon rainforest this month include the
dry season and human activities, according to research institutions and media reports.
The rainforest is typically wet and humid, and the frequency of fire activity usually rise each
year since July—the onset of the dry season, and peaks in September and decreases in October as
the rainy season approaches.
However, data from the Brazil’s National Institute for Space Research (Inpe) showed that the
number of forest fires in Brazil soared by 82 percent from January to August this year from a year
ago, and over half of those fires occurred in the Amazon rainforest. A total of 71,497 forest fires
were registered in the country in the first eight months of 2019 , up from 39,194 in the same
period in 2018, the Inpe said.
Human activities have led to the recent increase of fires , some experts have noted. The viewwas echoed by many, though they were divided over who actually conducted the activities. On
Friday evening , Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro pledged “zero tolerance” of environmental
crimes , adding t ha t the Armed Forces troops and resources will be mobilized from Saturday to
help put out the fires.
Earlier this week, Bolsonaro blamed non-governmental organizations for increasing wildfires
in the Amazon rainforest in the country's north. His claim was refuted (反驳)by
environmentalists , who argued that the surge of fires was a result of increasing deforestation and
burning fuelled by the governments anti-environmental policy. Alberto Setzer , an Inpe researcher ,
told local news site G1 that all the fires are results of human activities some accidental while
others intentional.
Scientists and environmental groups are worried that the fires will aggravate climate change
crisis and threaten biodiversity. The emergency has now transcended (越过) Brazil’s borders ,
reaching Peruvian , Paraguayan and Bolivian regions.

months in 2019.

I didn't cry when I learned I was the parent of a mentally disabled child.
“Go ahead and cry , ” the doctor advised kindly. But I couldn't cry then nor during the months
that followed.
We enrolled her in our neighborhood school’s kindergarten at age seven. I worried that she
was the “different* child among twenty five-year-olds. However , positive things began to happen
to Kristi in her school , and to her schoolmates , too. When boasting of their own
accomplishments , Kristi’s classmates always took pains to praise her as well , “Kristi got all her
spelling words right today. ”
During Kristi’s second year in school, the big public event of the term was a competition
based on a culmination of the year’s music and physical education activities.

Kristi onto the school bus. Also, I forced myself to go t o t he program. Then I knew why Kris t i
had been worried. Her class was divided into relay teams. With her limp and slow, clumsy
reactions,she would surely hold up her team.
But as Kristi’s turn to participate neared, a change took place in her team. The tallest boy in
the line stepped behind Kristi and placed his hands on her waist. Two other boys stood a little
ahead of her. The moment the player in front of Kristi stepped from the sack, those two boys
grabbed the sack and held it open while the tall boy lifted Kristi and dropped her neatly into it. A
girl in front of Kristi took her hand and supported her briefly until Kristi gained her balance. Then
off she hopped, smiling and proud.
Amid the cheers of teachers, schoolmates and parents, I thanked Heaven for the warm,
understanding people in life who make it possible for my disabled daughter to be like her fellow
human beings.
Then I finally cried.

parents.30. What can be a suitable title for the text?

第二节概要写作(满分 25 分)
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇 60 词左右的内容概要。
Once upon a time, eating alone was just that: sitting down in a restaurant on one’s own and
eating a meal. Everyone did it sometimes, and when they did so they might be a little embarrassed.
To eat alone might suggest that you didn’t have any family or friends, or didn’t like people. There
was a kind of shame attached to it. Nowadays, however, there is more and more solitary eating.
People choose to eat alone for various reasons. "Foodies"--people who have a passionate
interest in different cuisines -do it because all they need for their pleasure is the chance to eat good
food. They don't want company or conversation, but only the joy of eating some special dish.
Other people eat alone because it's simply practical for them to do so. For instance, it's
estimated that nearly a third of all the customers of fast-food restaurants eat alone. They are served
with their food fast, eat it fast and then leave fast- because they have a meeting to make or a child
to pick up from school.
But for others, the appeal of eating alone is quite different. It's an experience of freedom. For
the hour that it takes to have a meal, they can forget all the pressures of their lives. For a brief
window, they don' t have to deal with their family or job. They can relax and let their mind wander.
Maybe they will bring a book, a newspaper or perhaps they will shyly spy on the people around
them. Part of the appeal of this new trend is surely that a meal taken alone is like a little holiday
from the busyness of modern life, in which we have so much to do all the time. David Annand.
editor of Us-based Conde Nast Traveler magazine, who delights in dining alone, peaks of his
pleasure in the “rhythm of a meal in a restaurant--its ebb and flow(人来人往),the regular arrival
and departure of the waiter.” This restaurant rhythm allows him and others, he writes, to sit back.
observe, and think.
