6、ent, coeducational secondary school. There are currently 791 pupils on the school roll(名單). The school has a long and distinguished history, and it is also one of the oldest charities in the country, providing scholarships to pupils and organizing a Charity of the Term.The curriculum(課程) at Kings is

7、 based on strong academic roots. It emphasizes and relies upon what is best in traditional independent school education: scholarly excellence supported by a caring and tutorial system, and a wideranging cocurricular programme. However, it is continually adapting and reacting to the changing demands

8、of modern education: new subjects are added, new teaching techniques are adopted, and there is an increasing awareness of the need to provide programmes of study that match individual needs and skills.The curriculum is divided into three units: the Lower School(Year 9 ), an introductory year; the Mi

15、ils in the Kings School receive good education14The passage is probably taken from a _Ahandbook BwebsiteCmagazine DnewspaperBThe average temperature around the world is rising. People living in the US Midwest might find a fact hard to believe, though. The scientists suggest that the change in the Mi

16、dwest climate may have happened because of farming.The first study was led by David Changnon, a climatologist(氣候?qū)W家) at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb.Changnon and his team studied temperature records from the sites in the Midwest. They found that since 1970, the average temperature in the re

17、gion during July and August has gone downby up to one degree Fahrenheit(華氏度)from what it was during the years between 1930 and 1969. Their investigation also showed that the average rainfall in those states during those two months has increased. Between 1970 and 2009, about 0.33 inch more rain fell

18、than between 1930 and 1969.These_changes may be connected by humidity(濕度), Changnon says. Humidity is the measure of how much moisture is in the air. Humid air, which contains a lot of moisture，takes longer to heat up than dry air, Changnon notes. And humid air often releases its moisture through ra

19、infall.So where did the extra moisture in the air come from？Changnon points to farms in the region. As plants grow, they pull moisture from the ground and release it into the air. And among plants, soybeans (大豆) and corn plants release a lot of moisture. Midwestern farms now plant more soybeans and

20、corn than in the past, with 97 percent of farmland today planted with these two crops. In the 1930s, corn and soybeans covered only about 57 percent, Changnon says. He also notes that the plants are planted closer together now than they used to be, so there are more plants per acre than in the past.

21、The second study, like Changnons, also found an increase in rainfall in the same area. But it points to another possible source for the increased moisture. Alan Robock at Rutgers University was part of the team that produced the second study and presented the groups findings. The team found that irr

22、igation practices in the Great Plains have changed over the years. The researchers studied a vast area in the region. They found that in 1930, farmers in that region irrigated only about 1.8 million acres of farmland. In 1980, however, farmers irrigated nearly 15 million acres. Plants use the water

23、and then release it into the air.These results by Changnon and Robock and their colleagues are the first step toward understanding a change in the weather.15What does the underlined term “These changes” refer to?ALower temperatures and more rainfall.BHigher temperatures and higher humidity.CMaking a
