WhatIsClimateChange?

Theplanet'sclimateisconstantlychanging.Theglobalaveragetemperatureiscurrentlyintheregionof15℃.Geologicalandotherevidencesuggeststhat,inthepast,thisaveragemayhavebeenashighas27℃andaslowas7℃.

ThemajorityofclimatescientistsacceptthetheorythatanincreaseinthesegaseswillcauseariseintheEarth'stemperature.

參考答案

1.attheirownrisk

2.B解析：細節推斷題。題干陳述作者認為擁有創造能力的人通常是偉人。第四段指出人人都有創造能力，區分普通人和偉人的標準并非是否具有創造能力，而在于對創造能力的激發和應用。大部分普通人并非不具備創造能力，只是不能很好地發揮出自己的創造潛能而已，因此題干的表述是錯誤的。

3.consideryouranswersconsideryouranswers解析：細節辨認題。此處問如果遇到文章里列舉的殺手锏問題，該怎么辦?文章指出，如果你遇到這樣的問題要先稍微思考一下你的答案。suchastheselisted即上文列舉的問題，故正確答案為consideryouranswers。

4.A解析：由題干關鍵詞allhostagesituations可將答案定位至第一個小標題TheHostageSituation下第一段。...therearesomebasicfactsthatapplytoallhostagesituations，緊接下來的第二、三段第一句中均包含了題干關鍵詞wantssomething和thirdparty，且句意與題干相同，由此證明題干陳述正確。

5.A解析：由第五段第一句話“Tostartwith，theInternetisprofoundlychangingconsumerbehavior．”可知，網絡對消費者的購物行為正產生著極其深刻的影響。故該句意思正確。

6.B解析：從第1段“Itisnotsomuch…”可以看出是錯的。

7.C解析：第2個小標題B.GlobalWarming下面的第2段提到：Theypredictthatunlessdramaticactionistaken,globaltemperaturewillcontinuetoriseby1.4t05.8Celsiusdegreesoverthenextcentury．其大意是：他們預言除非采取大力行動，否則下世紀全球氣溫將增高1.4～5.8度。由此可知，作者沒有給出一個肯定的說法，因此此題的答案為NG。

8.A解析：第三段前面的部分說，互聯網視頻浪潮中最時尚的就是用戶想上傳什么就上傳什么，不管是不是從別處盜版來的。最后兩句說，最著名的例子就是YouFube，它的最大問題就是它可能是非法的，很難當做生意來做(turnintoabusiness)。無法作為生意，當然也就無法賺錢(hardlygenerateprofit)，而原因當然就是其內容的非法性，故答案為[A]。

9.B解析：根據題干中的信息詞globalaveragetemperature和27℃定位到第一個小標題下的第一段，可知地質學和其他方面的證據表明，過去的全球平均溫度可能高達27攝氏度，或低至7攝氏度，故該句表述錯誤。

10.15000squaresmetres15,000squaresmetres解析：如果世界上人均土地面積可以分得50,000平方米，但是可用來耕種糧食的土地平均每人只有15,000平方米。因為五分之一的土地長期被冰雪覆蓋，五分之一的土地是沙漠，另有五分之一的土地是高山或者是高原，還有十分之一的土地莊稼無法生長——是巖石。

11.A解析：由題干中necessary可定位到第一個小標題下第六段第一句therearestilltimeswhendogtransportationispreferred和第二句Harshweatherconditionscanmakeflyinghazardous,andcertainterraincanbemoredifficultforsnowmachinestocrossthanfordogs．題干問如今在何種情況下，仍需要sleddogs。根據原文上下文童思，第三句作廠具體說明，該句中harshweatherconditions與A中severeweatherconditions意思一致，故選A。

12.theGrandPremiotheGrandPremio解析：參見本文最后一句：The42-footpaperboardGeodesicwasinstalled...andcameawaywiththehighestaward，theGrandPremio．

13.nosummericeatallnosummericeatall解析：根據題干中的信息詞U.S.NationalSnowandIceDataCenter和60years定位到第四個小標題下的第二段，可知從美國國家雪冰數據中心的科學家那里得知，海上冰的覆蓋率在逐年降低，他們統計出縮減率現在是每十年縮減大約8%，也就是說不到60年，北冰洋上就沒有夏冰了，由此可得答案。

14.C解析：由題干measureandanalyzeintelligence定位到第二個小標題下首段第三、四句Anentirefieldofstudy，knownaspsychometrics,...Butevenwithinthatfield,expertsdon'talwaysagreeonexactlywhatitisorhowbesttoanalyzeit.(有一個被稱作心理測試學的學科專門研究和測試智商。但即使在這個領域內部，專家們也不能就智商到

15.B解析：細節題。由題目中的satellitetelevision和radiofrequency找到小標題TheOverallSystem下第二段最后一句DigitalbroadcastsatellitetransmitsprogrammingintheKufrequencyrange(12GHzto14GHz).(數字傳播衛星在Ku波段12兆赫茲到14兆赫茲傳播節目。)所以答案是B。

16.stableandrigid/strongandrigidstableandrigid/strongandrigid解析：參見本文第六段第二句：Therectanglewouldfoldupandbeunstablebutthetrianglewithstandsthepressureandismuchmorerigid—infactthetriangleistwiceasstrong．

17.persistentworkplacenegativitypersistentworkplacenegativity解析：根據關鍵詞employeemorale查讀文章第一段第一句Nothingaffectsemployeemoralemoreadverselythanpersistentworkplacenegativity．

18.A解析：本題定位信息是twice，涉及到internallydisplacedpersons和refugees數量的比較，從而鎖定文章第三段。該段首句提到Today，thereareanestimated30millioninternallydisplacedpeopleintheworld—doublethenumberofrefugees。題干表述與文章事實相符，因此答案為Y。

19.A解析：參見文章第2段第1句：Whenintroducedintoafavorableenvironmentwithanabundanceofresources，asmallpopulationmayundergogeometric，orexponentialgrowth．

20.C解析：文中并未說馬克.吐溫通過收集和出售可可粉賺了一大筆錢，而是說他計劃著通過這種方式發財(Heplannedtomakeafortunebycollectingandsellingcocoa.)。

21.A解析：M:Seathatmanovertherefacingthewindow?HecomesineveryFridaynightandhejustsitsthereforhours.

W:It'sodd,butthereisn'tmuchwecandoaslongasheorderssomething.

Q:Whatdoesthewomanimply?

解答此題的關鍵是把否定表達(thereisn'tmuchwecando...)轉換成肯定表達(shouldwaitpatiently)，故選[A]。對話中并沒有提到男士的年齡，[D]中的old與odd音近形近，容易誤聽。對話中只說到提供服務，并沒有說服務要迅速(immediately)，故[C]錯。

22.A解析：選項都和植物有關。男士建議女士不要把植物放在角落，而是放到窗前。意思是讓植物多接受日光。

23.lightslights解析：此處需要—個名詞。trafficlights指“交通燈”?？瞻滋幥坝衋setof，light要用復數形式。

24.B
