27、 astronauts in 45 years, with the first commercially built and operated spacecraft to carry people to and from space.

It is common in areas of: Americas Pacific Northwest, but still fairly new to New York. And its rapid growth can also close off areas to w
36、ildlife. Officials are trying to stop the plants growth before it becomes widespread. A2010 study reported high success rates of dogs using their noses to search out invasive(入侵的) species. The study found that trained dogs could smell and find two times more invasive plants than humans could watch w
37、ith their eyes. Joshua Beese; a dog handler with the Trail Conference group, said, “If we have to find all these plants ourselves, searching the grass for every tiny plant, it will take much longer. And we will still miss a lot, because hundreds of small plants like Scotch broom are largely hidden b
38、y other local plants growth.”Another organization working on the problem is Working Dogs for Conservation. It tries to train dogs to protect wildlife and wild places. The group has trained dogs in several states including Montana, Iowa, Colorado and Hawaii.Human teams had tried for years to find and

43、第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,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。As warming continues, scientists warn the oxygen content of oceans across the planet could be more and more reduced, with serious consequences for the future of fish and other sea life. 36 One is the simple fact that as water gets warmer,
44、 it can hold less dissolved(溶解的)oxygen. The other reason is less obvious. The entire ocean gets its oxygen from the surface - either from the atmosphere, or from photosynthesizing algae floating at the top of the sea. 37 Global warming is expected to reduce the mixing of the ocean by making surface
45、seawater lighter. Thats because in a warmer world we can expect more rainfall and more melting(融化)of glaciers, icebergs, and ice sheets. 38 The extra heat from the warming atmosphere will also make surface water expand and thus make it lighter still. 39 Instead, more of the oxygen will remain near t
46、he surface, where it will be used up by oxygen-breathing organisms.A low-oxygen ocean may become an inescapable feature of our planet. A team of Danish researchers wondered how long oxygen levels would drop if we could somehow reduce our carbon dioxide emissions to zero by 2100. They determined that
47、 over the next few thousand years oxygen levels would continue to fall, until they declined by 30 percent. The oxygen would slowly return to the oceans, but even 100,000 years from now they will not have fully recovered. 40 A. Its not known why the oxygen level of oceans has reduced.B. Scientists po
48、int to two reasons to expect a drop in ocean oxygen.C. Fresh waters inpouring will make the water at the oceans surface lighter.D. The oxygen then spreads to the deep ocean as the surface water slowly sinks.E. Global warming has caused the reduction of the oxygen content of oceans worldwide.F. The l
49、ight surface water will be less likely to sink so the deep ocean will get less oxygen.G. If they are right, we have every reason to worry about the major effect it has on sea life.第三部分语言知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。However objective we believe ou
