11、g. It might be because we are stuck in a traffic jam or stuck behind a very slow driver. t might be because we think another driver has done something very stupid and dangerous.

They are paparazziphotographers who make a living by taking pictures of the rich and famous.This Sept

30、ember, California, a state with plenty of celebrities, passed a law aimed at taking action against paparazzi. The law forbids photographers from entering private property to take pictures, from using high-tech devices to take pictures of people on private property, and from “persistently following i

31、n order to take a picture.” Violators can be fined or spend time in prison. The United State Congress is considering passing a similar law.Supporters of the California law say it will protect the privacy of celebrities, whom paparazzi have been bothering for years. Opponents (反對者) say the law restri

32、cts photojournalists from doing their job.Most celebrities seem to like having their pictures taken when they are in public at award shows or other events. After all, its free publicity. But when theyre not in public, they say, photographers should leave them alone. Yet paparazzi have been known to

33、secretly look in windows and worse. Actor Michael J. Fox said that paparazzi have even “tried to pretend to be medical personnel at the hospital where my wife was giving birth to our son.”Celebrities have as much right to their privacy as anyone else, supporters of the law state. Supporters further

34、argue that the California law is a fair way to keep the press at bay, because the law still allows photographers to do their job. It only punishes them, supporters say, when they violate celebrities privacy.Opponents of the law say it violates the First Amendment to the United States Constitution (美

35、國憲法第一修正案), which guarantees that no laws will be made to limit “the freedom of speech, or of the press.”Although some people might not consider paparazzi a part of the legal press, the California law does not single out paparazzi. It applies to photographers working for any publication.Opponents of

36、the law are also concerned about its wording. “Does persistently mean following someone for six minutes, six seconds, or six days?” asked lawyer Douglas Mirell. The wording of the law is too vague, critics complain, and could be used to punish almost any news photographer.The United States needs a f

37、ree press to keep the public informed about important news, paparazzi law opponents say. Limiting the press in any way, they argue, limits the freedom of all.1、Which of the following will be considered illegal by the new California law?APaparazzi slipping into the house of a famous person to take a

38、shot.BPaparazzi taking photos of famous people with high-tech cameras.CPaparazzi hiring helicopters as a fast means of transportation.DPaparazzi rushing towards filming sites on motorcycles.2、Supporters of the new law believe that _.Ait prevents the media from getting worseBit gives photographers a

41、n effort to reduce the impacts of climate change. The plan has been in legal limbo (邊緣) for the past year. Yet scientists have now calculated another outcome of the policy: harm to crop yields (產(chǎn)量) if the plan is cancelled. Along with carbon pollution, coal-fired power plants spew (噴出) pollutants th

42、at form what we know as smog. The contribution of smog to increased rates of asthma (哮喘) and premature deaths was already known. The new research estimates the extent to which smog, under air-pollution policies-4n place before the Clean Power Plan, would limit production in 2020 of four major crops:

43、 corn, cotton, potatoes and soybeans.Led by environmental engineer Shannon L. Capps, now at Drexel University, the team also sketched the extent to which those crop production losses would reduce under three nationwide scenarios (方案). One improved the efficiency of individual power plants. Another m

44、odeled a policy similar to the Obama plan, setting state CO2 emissions goals for the electricity department. A third established a tax on carbon emissions, under which emissions fell the most. But the greatest drop in smog-forming pollutantsand greatest gains in crop yieldscame from policies such as

45、 the Clean Power Plan.Researchers calculated how well each scenario would reduce the potential productivity loss (PPL) of each crop. PPL is a projected value for 2020 and indicates how much crop growth would suffer because of smog. Scenario 2 most closely agrees with results expected from the Clean
