DA travel booklet.DScientists have found an unusual way to prevent our planet from overheating: move it to a cooler spot. All you have to do is send a few comets(彗星)in the direction of earth, an
31、d its orbit will be changed. Our world will then be sent into a safer, colder part of the solar system.This idea for improving our climate comes from a group of US National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA)engineers and American astronomers. They say their plan could add another six billion
32、 years to the useful lifetime of our planeteffectively doubling its working life.The plan, put forward by Dr. Laughlin, and his colleagues Don Korycansky and Fred Adams, needs carefully directing a comet of asteroid(小行星)so that it passes close by our planet and sends some of its gravitational energy
33、 to Earth.“Earths orbital speed would increase as a result and we would move to a higher orbit away from the Sun,” Laughlin said.Engineers would then direct their comet so that it passed close to Jupiter or Saturn. The comet would pick up energy from one of these giant planets. Later its orbit would
34、 bring it back to Earth, and the process would be repeated. In the short term, the plan provides an ideal way to global warming, although the team was actually concerned with a much greater danger. The Sun is certain to heat up in about a billion years and so “seriously endanger” our biosphereby coo
35、king us. Thats why the group decided to try to save Earth.The plan has one or two worrying aspects, however. For a start, space engineers would have to be very careful about how they directed their asteroid or comet towards Earth. The smallest miscalculation(误算)in orbit could fire it straight at Ear
36、thwith deadly results.There is also the question of the Moon. As the scientific American magazine points out, if Earth was pushed out of its current position it is “most likely that the Moon would be stripped away from Earth,” it states. This would change our planets climate.32If the plan is success
37、ful, Earth will have a working life of _ years.A12 billion B6 billion C18 billionD24 billion33What makes the scientists plan to save Earth?AA few comets are moving to the direction of Earth. BEarths working life is coming to an end soon.CEarth will become too hot for mankind to keep alive. DThe moon
38、 is moving farther away from Earth.34What serious problems might the plan cause according to the passage?AEarth might be moved too far away and man might be frozen to death.BThe comet might hit Earth and man might lose the moon.CThe comet might hit Jupiter or Saturn and never return to Earth.DEarths
39、 working life might be greatly shortened.35Which of the following pictures best shows how the plan would work?ABCD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。(10分)Most travelers face the language difficulty in Italy nowadays.36There are a few things that you should know before you step out of the airpo
