114、爬行、两栖动物) and other life forms has been published by the well-known scientific journal, Nature. A special analysis carried out by the journal indicates that an astonishing 41% of all amphibians on the planet now face extinction while 26% of mammal species and 13% of birds are similarly threatened.Man

But also in danger of vanishing for the wild, it now appears, are animals that are currently rated as merely being endangered.In each case, the finger of blame poin

The continuing spread of agriculture is destroying million of hectares of wild habitats(栖息地)every year, leaving animals without homes, while the introduction of newly-come species, often helped by humans, is also damaging native populations. At the same time, polluti
117、on and overfishing are destroying ocean ecosystems.“Habitat destruction, pollution or overfishing either skill off wild creatures and plants or keaves them badly weakened,” said Derek Tittensor, an ocean ecologist at the World Conservation Monitoring Center in Cambridge. “The trouble is that in comi
118、ng decades, the additional threat of worsening climate change will become more and more common and could then kill off these survivors.”The problem, according to Nature, is worsened because of the huge gaps in scientists knowledge about the planets biodiversity. Evaluations of the total number of sp
119、ecies of animals and plants alive vary from 2 million to 50 million. In addition, evaluations of current rates of species disappearances vary from 500 to 36, 000 a year. “That is the real problem we face,” added Tittensor. “The scale of uncertainty is huge.”In the end, however, the data indicate tha

125、of biomass materials is everywherefrom trees and grasses to agricultural and citylife wastesbiomass promises to play a continuing role in providing power and heat for millions of people around the world.According to the Union of Concerned Scientists(UCS), biomass is a kind of renewable energy source
126、 that produces no carbon dioxide(二氧化碳), because the energy it contains comes from the sun.When plant matter is burned, it gives off the suns energy.In this way, biomass serves as a sort of natural battery(电池)for storing the suns energy.As long as biomass is produced continuouslywith only as much gro
127、wn as is usedthe “battery” lasts forever.According to the Energy Information Administration, biomass has been one of the leading renewable energy sources in the United States for several years running through 2007, making up between 0.5 and 0.9 percent of the nations total electricity supply.In 2008
128、although the numbers arent all in yetwind power probably took over first place because of the rapid development of wind farms across the country.Producing power from biomass helps reduce some 11 million tons of carbon dioxide each year.Some homeowners also try to make their own heat by using biomass
129、 materials.Such practice may save homeowners money, but it also produces a lot of pollution.So, the best way is to encourage power plants to use it.72Why is biomass considered as “a sort of natural battery”？AIt burns merely plant matter. BIt keeps producing electricity.CIt stores the energy from the
130、 sun. DIt produces zero carbon dioxide.73We learn from the text that in 2008 _Awind power could be the leader of renewable energy B. there was a rapid growth of electricity productionCbiomass might become the main energy source D0.50.9% of power supply came from biomass74Why does the author encourag
131、e power plants to use biomass? ATo prevent the waste of energy. BTo increase production safety.CTo reduce pollution. DTo save money.75Where does the text probably come from? AA research plan.
