问题      These 40 leading industrialized countries emitted 2.3 percent more greenhouse gases (GHG) from 2000 to 2006. Massive floods deep below Antarctica’s ice cover are accelerating the flow of glaciers into the sea.
   These two pieces of news came a couple of weeks before the Dec. 1 UN Climate Change Conference in Poznan, Poland. But unfortunately they went almost unnoticed in the media busy as they were grappling with the global financial crises.
   Call it quirk of the modem world’s fate, or our incapability to look beyond the immediate. We are so ensconced in the comforts of our times that nothing beyond the immediate can break our stupor. R’s true, global warming made a few headlines before the financial crisis spread its wings from the US and cast a shadow of gloom over the rest of the world. But our response has always been knee-jerk.

选项

答案世界领先的40个工业国家在2000年至2006年间排放的温室气体量增加了2.3%。南 极洲冰面以后的巨大深海洋流正在使冰川加速向海洋流动。 这两条新闻是在将于12月1日在波兰城市波兹南举行的联合国气候变化大会之前两周 发布的。不幸的是媒体正在关注全球金融危机而忽略了这两条消息。 借口是拯救现代世界的命运,还是我们不能超越当下。我们舒适地躲在当代生活里,任 何与当下无关的事物都不能打断我们的麻木不仁。确实,在金融危机从美国扩散开来波及全 球之前,全球变暖问题作为头版头条被大量报道。但是,我们的反映都是条件反射式的,缺 乏思考。
