The Earth's Energy Budget

The way the Earth interacts (28) the sun's energy can be displayed in a diagram

called the Earth’s energy budget It displays the sun's energy that reaches us and how much of that energy absorbed and reflected is by the earth and its atmosphere Solar energy reaches earth as electromagnetic radiation Once the energy reaches earth, some of it is absorbed by the atmosphere, (29) _ clouds

Some of it makes it to the earth's surface, and is absorbed by land and oceans The (30)

of energy absorbed affects temperature The energy (31) is not absorbed by the earth or its atmosphere is reflected back out to space in the same wavelengths in which it came

to earth On average, the amount of energy coming in is equal to the amount of energy going out Therefore, we say the earth's energy budget is balanced (32) more energy was coming in than was going out, the earth's temperature would increase On the other hand, if too much energy is reflected, and not absorbed, we'll see a decrease in the earth's temperatures Of all of the sun's energy that hits the Earth, about 70% is absorbed by the land, ocean, atmosphere and clouds and about 30% is reflected back into space

TEXT 1:

Before the 1500’s, the western plains of North America were dominated by farmers One group, the Mandans, lived in the upper Missouri River country, primarily in present – day North

Dakota They had large villages of houses built close together The tight arrangement enabled the

Mandans to protect themselves more easily from the attacks of others who might seek to obtain some of the food these highly capable farmers stored from one year to the next

The women had primary responsibility for the fields They had to exercise considerable skill to produce the desired results, for their northern location meant fleeting growing seasons Winter often lingered; autumn could be ushered in by severe frost For good measure, during the spring and summer, drought, heat, hail, grasshoppers, and other frustrations might await the wary grower

Under such conditions, Mandan women had to grow maize capable of weathering adversity They began as early as it appeared feasible to do so in the spring, clearing the land, using fire

to clear stubble from the fields and then planting From this point until the first green corn could be harvested, the crop required labor and vigilance

Harvesting proceeded in two stages In August the Mandans picked a smaller amount of the crop before it had matured fully This green corn was boiled, dried and shelled, with some of the

maize slated for immediate consumption and the rest stored in animal – skin bags Later in the

fall, the people picked the rest of the corn They saved the best of the harvest for seeds or for trade, with the remainder eaten right away or stored for alter use in underground reserves With appropriate banking of the extra food, the Mandans protected themselves against the disaster of crop failure and accompany hunger

The woman planted another staple, squash, about the first of June, and harvested it near the time of the green corn harvest After they picked it, they sliced it, dried it, and strung the slices before they stored

them Once again, they saved the seeds from the best of the year’s crop The Mandans also grew sunflowers

and tobacco; the latter was the particular task of the older men.

TEXT 2:

Telecommuting is some form of computer communication between employees’ homes and offices For employees whose job involve sitting at a terminal or word processor entering data or typing reports, the location of the computer is of no consequence If the machine can communicate over telephone lines, when the work is completed, employees can dial the office computer and

transmit the material to their employers A recent survey in USA Today estimates that there are

approximately 8,7 million telecommuters But although the numbers are rising annually, the trend

does not appear to be as significant as predicted when Business Week published “The

Portable Executive” as its cover story a few years ago Why hasn’t telecommuting become more popular?

Clearly, change simply takes time But in addition, there has been active resistance on the part of many managers These executives claim that supervising the telecommuters in a large work

force scattered across the country would be too difficult, or, at least, systems for managing them

are not yet developed, thereby complicating the manager’s responsibilities

It is also true that employees who are given the option of telecommuting are reluctant to

accept the opportunity Most people feel that they need regular interaction with a group, and many are concerned that they will not have the same consideration for advancement if they are not more visible in the office setting Some people feel that even when a space in their homes is set aside as
