During the twentieth century, the great increase in use of fossil fuels caused a significant rise in the
concentration of carbon dioxide, CO2, in the atmosphere. Scientists believe that the concentration of atmospheric CO 2
could double by early in the 21st century, compared with its level just before the Industrial Revolution. During the last
200 years, the CO2 concentration has increased by 25%. Energy from the sun reaches the earth in the form of light.
Neither CO2 nor H2O vapour absorbs the visible light in sunlight, so they do not prevent it from reaching the surface of
the Earth. The energy given off by the earth in the form of lower-energy infrared radiation, however, is readily absorbed
by both CO2 and H2O (as it is by the glass or plastic of greenhouses). Thus, some of the heat, the earth must lose to stay
in thermal equilibrium, can be trapped in the atmosphere, causing the temperature to rise. This phenomenon, called the
greenhouse effect, has been the subject of much discussion among scientists and the topic of many articles in the
popular press. The anticipated rise in average global temperature by the year 2050 due to increased CO 2 concentration is
predicted to be 2 to 5C. This is thought to be enough to cause a dramatic change in climate, transforming now
productive land into desert and altering the habitats of many animals and plants beyond their ability to adapt.

Our home in the universe is the planet Earth. It is one of eight planets that orbit, or circle, the sun. The sun is a
star, that is, a giant ball of hot gases. It is the centre of our solar system. There are billions of other stars in the sky, but
the sun is the star closest to the Earth. Our solar system also includes moons, which orbit planets. The moon we see in
the night sky orbits Earth.
We usually list the solar systems planets in order of their distance from the sun: the Mercury, the Venus, the
Earth, the Mars, the Jupiter, the Saturn, the Uranus, and the Neptune. They can be divided into two groups: terrestrial
planets and gas giant planets. Terrestrial, or Earth-like, planets have solid, rocky surfaces. The Mercury, the Venus, the
Earth, and the Mars are terrestrial planets. The Earth is the only planet that has large amounts of liquid water, and it is
the only planet that has life. Astronomers (scientists who study the stars and planets) believe that a long time ago, the
Mars had rivers and oceans just like the Earth, but that now all the water is either frozen or underground.
The gas giant planets are much larger than terrestrial planets. All gas giant planets are made of gases, not solid
rock. These planets have rings around them. The rings are made of tiny pieces of rock, dust, or ice. The Jupiter, the
Saturn, the Uranus, and the Neptune are gas giant planets. The Jupiter is the largest planet. It is about a thousand times
bigger than the Earth.

Audio script
Time magazine has named Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, as their Person of the Year 2010.
Zuckerberg, 26, is the second-youngest winner of the accolade. He won the award for connecting 12 percent of the
planet on his social networking site. This is an impressive statistic considering the site has yet to make any impression
in China. Mr Zuckerberg said on Wednesday, naturally on his Facebook page: "Being named as Time Person of the Year
is a real honor and recognition of how our little team is building something that hundreds of millions of people want to
use to make the world more open and connected. I'm happy to be a part of that." The young entrepreneur owns a quarter
of the shares of Facebook and is a multi-billionaire.
It was uncertain for a while who would win Times annual honour. Readers voting in the online poll chose the
Wikileaks founder Julian Assange as the winner. However, Time panelists chose Mark Zuckerberg. Times editor
Richard Stengel explained they chose Zuckerberg because he was a more positive figure than Assange and because he
changed how we all live our lives in ways that are innovative and even optimistic. He wrote on Times website:
"There is an erosion of trust in authority, a decentralizing of power and at the same time, perhaps, a greater faith in one
another. Mr another he said. Mr Stengel continued: Zuckerberg sees the world as filled with potential friends.
Perhaps only the Facebook creator himself knows how much more he can do.
