24、阅读理解 （共 20 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 40 分 ) A More ice melted from the surface of the Greenland Ice Sheet this year than ever before recorded, report scientists from the University of Colorado. The same team found that the extent of Arctic sea ice reached the lowest level in the satellite record in 2002, offeri
25、ng further proof that climate change is already changing the Arctic. Researchers from the University of Colorado(UC)say that the speeding up melting appears to be linked to changes in Northern Hemisphere atmospheric circulation patterns. The study also found temperatures during the summer of 2002 we
26、re warmer than usual over much of the Arctic Ocean. “It is likely that sea ice extent will continue to decline over the 21st century as the climate warms,“ Researchers added. “With these trends, we may see a 20 percent reduction in the yearly average sea ice by 2050, and by then there might be no ic
27、e at all during the summer months.“ The report was released on Saturday at the yearly fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union, just one week after an announcement by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA) that sea ice is melting about nine percent faster than earlier research
28、 had showed, and could disappear entirely by the end of this century. “This trend of disappearing arctic sea ice is one example of the environmental damage that can be linked to carbon dioxide emissions,“ said Morgan, “When we have the means to reduce CO2 emissions and prevent further damage, we sho
29、uld do our best. National leaders must act now to improve energy efficiency and increase the use of renewable energy sources, like wind and solar, before its too late.“ CU scientists judge that a change in the Greenland climate toward warmer conditions would lead to an increase in the rate of sea le
30、vel rise, which will bring disasters to the human beings. 56. It can be inferred that _. A. scientists have found that Arctic sea ice is lower than before B. scientists have studied the pictures of the Arctic sent by satellites C. scientists began to do research on Arctic sea ice in year 2002 D. war
31、m temperature has hardly any effect on the extent of Arctic sea ice now but soon will 57. Scientists fear that _. A. there will be no ice left at all in the Arctic Ocean at the end of the 21st century B. disasters will happen if Arctic sea ice continues to melt faster than before C. the temperature
32、in Greenland will be too warm for animals and human beings to live on D. people still think Arctic sea ice is melting slowly 58. It is thought that _. A. carbon dioxide emissions are one of the causes of the environmental damage B. carbon dioxide emissions are an example of the environmental damage
33、C. most environmental problems are caused by carbon dioxide emissions D. people can still have the change to solve the above environmental problem B Gary Finkle was seriously hurt in a swimming-pool accident seven years ago.

Gary takes part in an unusual organization called Helping Hands:Simian Aides(猴子助手 )for the disabled.The orga
35、nization supplies the disabled with trained monkeys that reduce the disabled persons dependence on family, friends and hired servants. Using his mouth, Gary controls a small laser(激光 )pointer fixed on his wheel-chair. With it, he directs Jo to change books or the tape-recorder. She brings him drinks
36、 from a refrigerator(冰箱 )and clears away empty containers. When asked, Jo will fetch the remote control(遥控 器 )for the TV and place it on Gerys working table where he can operate it with his mouthstick. This mouthstick can be used for practically everything:turning the pages of a book, dialing the te
37、lephone, changing channels on TV, working at a typewriter or computer. If Garys mouthstick drops to the floor, Jo will pick it up and gently put it again into his mouth. “I cant imagine living without her ,“Gary says. He will always need human assistance for such things as getting in and out of bed,
38、 bathing or changing his clothes. But having Jo reduces his dependence on Micky, making it possible for her to do things in town without worrying about her husbands safety. 59.Gary who was disabled cant .

Most waves are caused by winds blowing over the surface o
41、f the water. The sun heats the earth, causing the air to rise and the winds to blow. The winds blow across the sea, pushing little waves into bigger and bigger ones. The size of wave depends on how strong the winds is, how long it blows, and how large the body of water is. In a small bay (海湾 ) big w
42、aves will never build up. But at sea the wind can build up big and strong waves. A rule says that the height (高度 ) of a wave (in metres) will usually be no more than one-tenth of the winds speed (in kilometres). In other words, when the wind is blowing at 120 kilometeres an hour, most waves will be
43、about twelve metres. Of course, some waves may work together to form very big waves that are much higher. In 1933 the United States Navy (海军 ) reported the largest measured wave in history. It rose in the Pacific Ocean to a height of thirty-four metres. 63. Most waves are caused by . A. the earths s
44、ize B. the sun heating the earth C. the surface of the water D. the winds blowing across the sea 64. When the winds blow across the sea . A. little waves are made bigger and bigger B. the air rises above the surface of the water C. the heat of the sun is reduced D. the body of water becomes larger 6
45、5. The size of a wave depends on all of the following EXCEPT . A. how large the body of water is B. how hot the body of water is C. how long the wind blows D. how strong the wind is 66. If the wind is blowing at 30 kilometres an hour, the height of a wave is about . A. twelve metres B. one-tenth met
46、res C. 120 kilometres D. three metres D Scientists have uncovered the exact difference between man and mouse. Teams of scientists from around the world will publish today the draft genome of the mouse, which enables them for the first time to compare another mammals entire DNA directly with that of humans. The similarities are far greater than the differences man and mouse share a common ancestor that lived more than 70 million years ago - which has allowed scientists to find treatments for a good many human diseases.
