2、etimes the best advice doesnt come from a book,a microphone,from behind a desk in Washington or even from the people who are the leaders in their fields.Sometimes the best life lessons are found deep in the roots of where we came from.My father passed away years ago,but I always remember the lessons
3、 he taught me.Three of them particularly shape my perspective day after day.The first one is that little things make big things happen.To the best of my memory,单位：乙州丁厂七市润芝学校 时间：2022 年 4 月 12 日 创编者：阳芡明 单位：乙州丁厂七市润芝学校 时间：2022 年 4 月 12 日 创编者：阳芡明 when I was young,we needed to build a new shed.Those were
4、the days when stores like Home Depot and Lowes didnt exist.Brand-new timber(木料)was expensive,so folks often reused the materials that others in the community didnt need.That summer,Dad and I used the boards from an old abandoned barn.We pulled them down one by one,drew the nails out and took off the
5、 tin and straightened it in order to reuse it.We got our supplies back to our yard and got to work.I dont know how much of a help I really was,but I chose to stay beside Dad the entire period,working along with him.The sun was hot that day,and sweat formed and ran down our faces.I stood there and ha
6、nded him the nails one by one,which were hammered into that shed.Dad made me feel proud of my work.Even though I just handed him the nails,he repeatedly emphasized how we built the new shed“together.He taught me that when youre willing to do hard work,even in little things,big things come together.T
7、he second one is that we should honor our promises.As a young man,my father always carried a pocket-sized Bible in his chest pocket.Shortly before the invasion of Normandy in 1944,he prayed for Gods protection and promised God that if he made it home,he would make sure his family attended church eve
8、ry Sunday.Well,he made it home and he kept that promise.I cannot remember a Sunday when Dad did not take my mother,my siblings and me to church even when we were away on vacation.I now have my Dads pocket Bible.It is one of my most treasured possessions,and it serves as a constant reminder of my dad
9、s service to his country.However,it also serves as a visual representation of my dads firm determination to keep his 单位：乙州丁厂七市润芝学校 时间：2022 年 4 月 12 日 创编者：阳芡明 单位：乙州丁厂七市润芝学校 时间：2022 年 4 月 12 日 创编者：阳芡明 promises.Today,I place great value on my family and my faith,undoubtedly because of my dads example.T
10、his lesson of promise has been introduced into all areas of my life.The third one is that listening is a way to acquire wisdom.My dad and I kept ourselves busy doing a lot of things together.During the nights of late summer,after dinner,the whole family would gather on our small porch to talk as the
11、 sun went down.Sometimes an aunt or uncle would drop by,and at other times my grandparents would be there.They would talk about the neighborhood news,the goings-on in modern Western society and politics mostly ordinary things,but it was good to sit there listening and to be together.Moreover,sitting
12、 there on the porch as dusk faded into night,I learned the value of listening and observing.Sometimes taking a moment to pause gives us the best perspective and sometimes we find the best answers simply by listening.Life in America becomes more complex.However,I like to think back to the simple less
13、ons I learned from my father.They were the building blocks of my character and the values that still guide me today.Perhaps someone who has influence on your life taught you life lessons that helped form your character.Im convinced that our nation could gain a lot by applying these lessons today.If
14、we did,I think we would be reminded that the reason why our nation has become great is not merely that we have had wise leaders or well-spoken elected officials.Our nation has become great because of those ordinary Americans like my father,who have pride in their work,place great value on honesty,ch
15、aracter and commitments,and pass those lessons on to their children and grandchildren.And that is the reason why we are still great today.单位：乙州丁厂七市润芝学校 时间：2022 年 4 月 12 日 创编者：阳芡明 单位：乙州丁厂七市润芝学校 时间：2022 年 4 月 12 日 创编者：阳芡明 21While building the new shed with his father,the author .A tried his best to he

28、ge has led to a dramatic increase in storm surge risk in New York City,making devastating events like Hurricane Sandy more likely.What can we say about the role of climate change in the unprecedented disaster that is unfolding in Houston with Hurricane Harvey?There are certain climate change-related
29、 factors that we can,with great confidence,say worsened the flooding.单位：乙州丁厂七市润芝学校 时间：2022 年 4 月 12 日 创编者：阳芡明 单位：乙州丁厂七市润芝学校 时间：2022 年 4 月 12 日 创编者：阳芡明 Sea Level rise attributable to climate change-some of which is due to coastal subsidence(下沉)caused by human disturbance such as oil drilling-is more
30、than half a foot(15cm)over the past few decades.That means the storm surge was half a foot higher than it would have been just decades ago,meaning far more flooding and destruction.(close to 1F)over the past few decades from roughly 30,or 87-88F).There is a simple thermodynamic(热力学的 of warming.Sea s
31、urface temperatures in the area where Harvey intensified warmer than“average temperatures a few decades ago.That means 3-5%more moisture(水分)in the atmosphere.That large amount of moisture creates the potential for much greater rainfalls and greater flooding.The combination of coastal flooding and he
32、avy rainfall is responsible for the devastating flooding that Houston is experiencing.Not only are the surface waters of the Gulf of Mexico unusually warm right now,but there is a deep layer of warm water that Harvey was able to feed upon when it intensified at near record pace as it neared the coas
33、t.Human-caused warming is penetrating down into the ocean.Its creating deeper layers of warm water in the Gulf and elsewhere.Harvey was almost certainly more intense than it would have been in the absence of human-caused warming,which means stronger winds,more wind damage and a larger storm surge.Fi
34、nally,the more tenuous but potentially relevant climate factors:part of what has made Harvey such a devastating(消灭性的)storm is the way it has stalled near the coast.It continues to strike Houston and surrounding regions with a seemingly endless 单位：乙州丁厂七市润芝学校 时间：2022 年 4 月 12 日 创编者：阳芡明 单位：乙州丁厂七市润芝学校 时

36、urn,is associated with a greatly expanded subtropical high pressure system over much of the US at the moment,with the jet stream pushed well to the north.This pattern of subtropical expansion is predicted in model simulations of human-caused climate change.More tenuous(微弱的),but possibly relevant sti
37、ll,is the fact that very persistent,nearly“stationary summer weather patterns of this sort,where weather anomalies(both high-pressure dry hot regions and low-pressure stormy/rainy regions)stay locked in place for many days at a time,appears to be favoured by human-caused climate change.In conclusion
38、,while we cannot say climate change“caused Hurricane Harvey,what we can say is that it exacerbated several characteristics of the storm in a way that greatly increased the risk of damage and loss of life.Climate change worsened the impact of Hurricane Harvey.28Whats the main purpose of writing the p

42、 err is human.To blame the other guy is even more human.Common sense is not all that common.Why tell the truth when you can come up with a good excuse?These three popular sentences are meant to be jokes,and yet they tell us a lot about human nature.To err,or to make mistakes,is indeed a part of bein
43、g human,but it seems that most people dont want to accept the responsibility for the problem.Perhaps it is the natural thing to do.The original quote about human nature went like this:“To err is human,to forgive,divine(神圣的).This saying mirrors an ideal people should be forgiving of others mistakes.I
44、nstead,we tend to do the opposite find someone else to pass the blame on to.However,taking responsibility for something that went wrong is a making of great maturity.Common sense is what we call clear thought.Having common sense means having a good general plan that will make things work well,and it
