I am so worried about global warming. We need stop cutting down all of the trees so that they can absorb the carbon dioxide. I think the Kyoto Protocol（京都议定书) to stop pollution is a great idea ,and I hope our country will decide to follow it, too.[来源: http://wx.jtyjy./]

People should do all they can to help stop pollution, even if it is something as little as recycling your soda can. Every little thing helps. Maybe schools can put recycling bins in classrooms. Students can bring in all of their cans and bottles and see how many the school can collect.

The United States should take action to help stop pollution. Since we are one of the richest countries, we should at least spend a little money to help.

It is not good that the United States is not following the Kyoto Protocol. The U.S. is one of the most pollution emitting (污染物排放)countries in the world. Even if the rest of the world agrees to follow those rules, without the U. S. and its big businesses agreeing, global warming will still be a big problem.

The world needs to learn more about global warming problems. If we do not do something soon then some of Earth’s coolest animals will bee extinct. People should use solar power instead of things that pollute the atmosphere!

Global warming is very dangerous, and it must be prevented. Even if people think that it cannot be stopped ,we should at least try. Stopping global warming is more important than keeping our businesses going. What about the penguins(企鹅)and the polar bears? We can’t just let them bee extinct.

(答案→)C
解析：
【小题1】推断题。Lindsey 说人们应当竭力去帮助停止污染，即使是诸如何收再利用汽水罐这样的小事情也会作用，接下来举的这一做法建议即是围绕防止污染来说的。既是为防止污染。当然目的是保护地球。
【小题2】细节题。Augustine 说美国是最大的污染物排放回之一。只要美国政府和美国的企业不接受京都议定书，即使世界其他国家都接受它。全球气候变暖也得不到解决。由此可知D项正确。
【小题3】细节题。Jillian and Samantha 都谈到全球气候变暖若得不到控制，像企鹅和北极熊这些动物馆将会灭绝。由此知B项正确，二人谈的是将可能出现理由的一种后果。故D项不正确。
【小题4】主旨大意题。六个孩子谈的均是控制全球气候变暖和环境的问题。即都是环境问题。B项和C项均片面。
