According to a weather experts prediction, the atmosphere will be warmer in

29、the year 2050 than it is today, if man continues to burn fuel at the present rate. If this warming up took place, the ice caps in the poles would begin to melt, thus raising sea level several meters and severely flooding coastal cities. Also, the increase in atmospheric temperature would lead to gre

30、at changes in the climate of the northern hemisphere.In the past, concern about a man-made warming of the earth has concentrated on the Arctic because the Antarctic is much colder and has a much thicker ice sheet. But the weather experts arc now paying more attention to West Antarctic, which may be

31、affected by only a few degrees of warming, in other words, by a warming on the scale that will possibly take place in the next fifty years from the burning of fuels. Satellite pictures show that large areas of Antarctic ice are already disappearing. The evidence suggests that a warming has taken pla

32、ce. This fits the theory that carbon dioxide warms the earth.However, most of the fuel is burnt in the northern part of the earth, where temperatures seem to be falling. Scientists conclude, therefore, that up to now natural influences on the weather have exceeded those caused by man. The question i

33、s: Which natural cause has the most effect on the weather?One possibility is the behavior of the sun. Astronomers at one research station have studied the hot spots and “cold spots, that is, the relatively less hot spots, on the sun. This seems to have a greater effect on the distribution of the ear

34、ths atmospheric pressure, and consequently on wind circulation （循环）.The sun is also variable （可变 的）over a long term. Its heat output （输出）goes up and down in cycles. The latest trend being downward is on the way. But that is only an imagination.5. The carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would.A. prevent

The article was written to explain.A. the greenhouse effectsB. the solar effects on the earthC. the solar weatherD. the causes

36、affecting weather7. Although the fuel is greater in the northern part, temperatures there seem to be falling. This is.A. mainly because the carbon dioxide is risingB. possibly because the ice caps in the poles are meltingC. due to the effect of the earths climateD. possibly due to the activity of th

38、kly. For example, children usually have a growth spurt between the ages of 12 and 18. The same appears to be true for some dinosaurs!

39、cted from their legs. Theropods are a group of dinosaurs that mainly walked on two legs and include big meat-eating dinosaurs, like tyrannosaurus rex, monly known as T. rex.The research team looked at fossils from museums in the United Slates, Canada, China, and Argenlina. They were able lo cut into

40、 the fossilized bones of one of the worlds most famous T. rexes, known as Sue. These bones showed that the T. rex and its relatives have a period of extreme growth during the years before adulthood. It also shows that they reached full adult size by around age 20. Sue is about 13 meters tall. She is

41、 believed to have lived to about 33 years. But not all the large theropods had more steady rates of growth over a longer period of time. The Argentinian dinosaur did not reach its full adult size until it reached about 40 years of age. Il is believed to have lived to about age 50.Big theropods share

42、 the same basic body design. They walked on two legs and had large skulls and strong jaws. And of course, they had threatening teeth.The lead researcher on the study is Tom Cullen. He is a paleontologist with the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences and North Carolina State University. He said

43、that before this study, “it was known that T. rex grew very quickly, but it was not clear if all theropod dinosaurs reached giant size in the same way, or if there were many ways they grew so big.”How did scientists know the dinosaurs ages?A. By knowing the thcropods, height.B. By examining the cond

44、itions of the teeth.C. By paring the theropods bodies.D. By counting the growth rings of the bones.12. Which part of the bones do you think the scientists examined?A. Fossilized legs.B. Fossilized teeth.C. Fossilized skulls.D. Fossilized jaws.13. Why did Tom Cullen lead the research?A. To analyze wh

45、y theropods grew very quickly.B. To know the age of different theropods.C. To know why theropodsgrew so big.D. To prove the idea that theropods shared the same features.14. What does this passage mainly want to explore?A. The reason why theropods dinosaurs had the same body design.B. The Argenlinian

46、 dinosaur was the longest-lived dinosaur.C. Theropod dinosaurs had different rates of growth.D. The way that some dinosaurs grew so big.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有 两项为多余选项。Family love is one of the most valuable gifts in life and one that you cannot buy anywhere. 16 He
