31、and in parts of the Arctic. This one thing is the low temperaturethe killing chill of far North and the polar South.To survive, men must wear the warmest possible clothing.

39、a曾经并不是一个寒冷的大陆,并没有提到the Arctic曾经的情况,所以选C。CWashingtonThe largest ozone(臭氧)hole ever observed has opened up over Antarctica, according to the scientists of the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA).

42、llite, said ozone watchers had expected a big hole this year, but not this big. The Antarctica ozone hole, first observed in 1985, is caused by the depletion(损耗)of Earthprotecting ozone by humanmade chemicals such as chlorofluorocarbons, known as CFCs.“Even though these chemicals were not allowed to
43、 use from the beginning of 1987, they remain in the atmosphere and will continue to do so for years,” Newman said.“This years large hole may have been caused by a change in a swirling high level air current over Antarctica, which circles the area and contains the zone hole,” Newman said.43The text m

DFailure.答案:A词义猜测题。本文是从正面讲述太空科技的发展,所以首先排除选项C和D;既然Spaceship 已经成功升空,那么若该计划成功,更标志载人航天飞行开始复兴。 50Which is the best title for the passage?AReach for the SkyBSpaceship to
57、MarsCTraveling on the MoonDThe First Privatelybuilt Spaceship答案:A标题归纳题。本文主要介绍的是一些公司致力于开发太空旅游,从而使年轻人对科技感兴趣的情况。C项的范围仅仅局限于在月球上旅游,所以不正确;B项和D项仅仅是其中的一些项目,范围狭隘;只有A项能全面概括文章的内容。EMichael Joseph Jackson(born on August 29, 1958)is an American recording artist, entertainer, and businessman.
