第1题:In the world of climate change, it is in theEarth’s cold regions where trends can most easily be seen. The cryosphere, where water is found in solid form, is among the most sensitive regions to temperature change. The sensitivity of ice and snow to temperature changes is an early indicator of even relatively small differences, says University ofColorado atBoulder senior researcher RichardArmstrong. He has found that today’s receding and thinning sea ice, mountain glacier mass losses, decreasing snow extent, melting permafrost (永久冻土), and rising sea level are all consistent with warming. Global mean temperatures have risen one degree Fahrenheit over the past 100 years. with more than half of the increase occurring in the last 25 years, observesArmstrong who is affiliated with the National Snow and IceDataCenter headquartered atCU-Boulder. "As slight as that may seem, it’s enough to make a difference, " saidArmstrong. "Now, long-term monitoring of a series of cold region, or cryospheric, parameters (参数) shows that for several decades the amounts of snow and ice around the world have been decreasing. " The extent ofArctic sea ice is shrinking by about 3 percent per decade. but the trends are not uniform. While recent studies have indicated that the ice thickness also had decreased over several decades, new information shows that the ice may have thinned rapidly,Armstrong saiD、Examination of springtime ice thickness in theArctic Ocean indicates that the mean ice thickness decreased 1.5 meters (4.8 feet) between the mid-1980s and early 1990s. To mark its 25th anniversary, the National Snow and IceDataCenter has organized a special session at the 2001 Fall Meeting ofAmerican Geophysical Union, taking place this week in San Francisco, that illuminates overall changes in the cryosphere. The session begins Tuesday and extends through Thursday afternoon, with 75 contributions from all areas of cryospheric study. Papers and posters include examinations of lake and river ice, glacier dynamics, and mass ice balance studies in polar and continental glaciers, regional and polar snow cover trends, and variations inCanadian ice cap elevations. Trends of climate change can be most easily sensed ______. A、in the oceans B、in icy and snowy regions C、on high mountains D、in the south hemisphere |

第2题: A、good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It is remarkable first for what it contains the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sports to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features (特定) as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and musiC、 A、newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and out glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the next. A、good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any one reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality (时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now.But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient (短暂的) value. For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and sequence, his own news paper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading. A、good newspaper offers a variety to readers because ______. A、it tries to serve different readers B、it has to cover things that happen in a certain locality C、readers are difficult to please D、readers like to read different newspapers |
