【正文】 nique and I matter. No one could ever take that away from me. I knew this then, and I know this now. “可知“我”自小雖然與眾不同，但是從內(nèi)心接受自己．以及最后一段中的“Regardless of your race, religion, background, or circumstances ... Being different is okay. ”可知，“我”走自己的路讓別人說去吧！故選A。（4）考查推理判斷。從整篇文章內(nèi)容來看，主要描述“我”從小到大由于身高的原因而與眾不同，并受到周圍人的取笑。但是“我”并為此感到自卑和沮喪，反而勇敢的接受自己并樂觀地積極面對。Keep your head up．“把頭抬起來”形象描述了“我”的心理狀態(tài)，符合題意。故選D?！军c(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇故事類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。7．閱讀理解 We all think plants were expected to get larger with increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, but changes in temperature, humidity(濕度)and nutrient availability seem to have trumped the benefits of increased carbon dioxide said researchers from the National University of Singapore. 45 percent of the species studied now reach smaller adult sizes than they did in the past. The researchers pointed out that warmer temperatures and changing habitats, caused by climate change, are possible reasons for shrinking creatures. We do not yet know the mechanisms(機(jī)制)involved, or why some organism are getting smaller while others are unaffected, the researchers said. Until we understand more, we could be risking negative consequences that we can39。t yet quantify. The change is big in coldblooded animals. Only two decades of warmer temperatures are enough to make retiles (爬行動物)smaller. An increase of only 1 degree centigrade caused nearly a 10 percent increase in metabolism(新陳代謝). Greater use of energy resulted in tiny tortoises and little lizards. Fish are smaller now too. Though overfishing has played a part in reducing numbers, experiments show that warmer temperatures also stop fish growing. Warmblooded animals aren39。t immune(免除)from the size change caused by climate change. Many birds are now smaller. Soay sheep are thinner. Red deer are weaken And polar bears are smaller, pared with historical records. This is not the first time this has happened in Earth39。s history. 55 million years ago, a warming event similar to the current climate change caused bees, spiders and ants to shrink by 50 to 75 percent over several thousand years. That event happened over a longer time than the current climate change. The speed of modem climate change could mean organisms may not respond or adapt quickly enough, especially those with long generation times climate change will be shown in the future.（1）What does the text mainly talk about?
