But when we talk about day and night, we are using“day”to mean the time between sunrise and sunset. Since the earth looks like a b
22、all, the sun can shine on only half of it at a time. Always one half of the earth is having day and the other half night. A place is moved from day into night and from night into day over and over by the spinning(旋转)of the earth. At the equator(赤道)day and night are sometimes the same length(长度). The
23、y are each twelve hours long. The sun rises at 6 oclock in the morning and sets at 6 oclock in the evening. For six months the North Pole is tilted(倾斜)toward the sun. In those months the Northern Hemisphere(半球)gets more hours of sunlight than the Southern Hemisphere. Days are longer than nights. Sou
24、th of the equator nights are longer than days. For the other six months the North Pole is tilted away from the sun. Then the Southern Hemisphere gets more sunlight. Days are longer than nights.

It came as something of a surprise when Diana, Princess of Wales, made a trip to Angola in 2004, to support the Red Crosss campaign for a total ban on all anti-personnel landmines(地雷). Within hours of arriving in Ang
28、ola, television screens around the world were filled with images of her comforting victims injured in explosions caused by landmines. I knew the statistics, she said. But putting a face to those figures brought the reality home to me; like when I met Sandra, a 13- year-old girl who had lost her leg,
29、 and people like her. The Princess concluded with a simple message: We must stop landmines. And she used every opportunity during her visit to repeat this message. But, back in London, her views were not shared by some members of the British government, which refused to support a ban on these weapon
30、s. Angry politicians launched an attack on the Princess in the press. They described her as very ill-informed and a loose cannon (乱放炮的人).” The Princess responded by brushing aside the criticisms: This is a distractionwe do not need. All Im trying to do is help. Opposition parties, the media and the
31、public immediately voiced their support for the Princess. To make matters worse for the government, it soon emerged that the Princesss trip had been approved by the Foreign Office, and that she was in fact very well-informed about both the situation in Angola and the British governments policy regar
32、ding landmines. The result was a severe embarrassment for the government. To try and limit the damage, the Foreign Secretary, Malcolm Rifkidnd, claimed that the Princesss views on landmines were not very different from government policy, and that it was working towards a worldwide ban. The Defence S
33、ecretary, Michael Portillo, claimed the matter was a misinterpretation or misunderstanding. For the Princess, the trip to this war-torn country was an excellent opportunity to use her popularity to show the world how much destruction and suffering landmines can cause. She said that the experience ha
34、d also given her the chance to get closer to people and their problems.1、Princess Diana paid a visit to Angola in 2004_ .A、to voice her support for a total ban of landminesB、to clarify the British governments stand on landminesC、to investigate the sufferings of landmine victims thereD、to establish h

39、undings are being polluted faster than ever and it seems that people cannot prevent it. Time is bringing us more people, and more people will bring us more industry, more cars, larger cities, and the growing use of man-made materials. What can explain and settle this problem?

40、ion is caused by manby his desire(欲望) for a modern way of life. We make increasing industrialization(工业化) our first aim.

41、to the cities, eager for the achievements of our modern society. But as our technological achievements have grown in the last twenty years, pollution has become a serious problem.
