1970 was World Conservation Year. The United Nations wanted everyone to know that the world is in danger. They hoped that governments would act quickly in order to "conserve" nature. Here is one example of the problem. At one time there were 1,300 different plants, trees and flowers in Holland. But now only 866 remain. The others have been destroyed by modern man and his technology. We are changing the earth, the air and water, and everything that grows and lives. We can’t live without these things either. If we continue like this, we shall destroy ourselves.
What will happen in the future Perhaps it is more important to ask "What must we do now" The people who will be living in the world of tomorrow are the young of today. A lot of them know that conservation is necessary. Many are helping to save our world. They plant trees, build bridges across rivers in forests, and so on. In a small town in the United States a large group of girls cleaned th

[单项选择]The world"s greatest snow-capped peaks, which run in a chain from the Himalayas to Tian Shah

the border of China and Kyrgyzstan, have lost no ice

the last decade, new research shows.
The discovery has stunned scientists, who

that around 50bn tons of meltwater

each year and not being replaced by new snowfall.
The study is the first to survey all the world"s icecaps and glaciers and was made
5
by the use of satellite data. Overall, the contribution of melting ice outside the two largest caps— Greenland and Antarctica—is much
6
than previously estimated, with the lack of ice loss in the Himalayas and the other high peaks of Asia
7
most of the discrepancy.
Bristol University glaciologist Prof Jonathan Bamber, who was not part of the research team, said, "The very unexpected result was the negligible mass loss from high mountain Asia which is not
8
different from zero. "
The melting of Himalayan glaciers caused
9
in 2009 when a report from the UN"s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change mistakenly stated that they would disappear by 2035, instead of 2350.
10
, the scientist who led the new work is clear that while greater uncertainty has been discovered in Asia"s highest mountains, the melting of ice caps and glaciers around the world
11
a serious concern.
"Our results and those of everyone else show we are losing a huge amount of water into the oceans every year," said Prof John Wahr of the University of Colorado. "People should be just as worried about the melting of the world"s ice as they were before. "
His team"s study, published in the journal Nature, concludes that between 443-629bn tons of meltwater overall are added to the world"s oceans each year. This is
12
sea level by about 1.5mm a year, the team reports,
13
the 2mm a year caused by expansion of the warming ocean.
The scientists are careful to point out that lower-altitude glaciers in the Asian mountain ranges—sometimes dubbed the "third pole" —are
14
melting. Satellite images and reports confirm this. But over the study period, enough ice was added to the peaks to
