阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。Scientists have found what look like caves on Mars(火星), and say they could be protecting life from the planets terrible environment.The first caves discovered beyond the Earth appear as seven mysterious black dots on the pictures sent back by NASAs Mars Odyssey orbiter. Each as large as a football field, they may be openings into natural caves below the Martian surface.“If there is life on Mars, there is a good chance youd find it in caves,” said Jut Wynne, one of the researchers who noticed the features while working on a US Geological Survey Mars Cave Detection Program.Jonathan Clarke, a geologist with the Mars Society of Australia, yesterday described the discovery as exciting.One photo taken at night by an infrared imager(红外线成像器) showed one hole to be unusually warm,suggesting hot air trapped during the day is flowing out.“I said:Wow, thats a cave. ” Dr. Clarke said excitedly. “People have been looking for these for a long time;now we have found them.”He agreed such caves would be perfect places to hunt for life escaping from the bitterly cold,radiation-soaked(充满辐射的),dry surface.“Tiny drops of water could collect inside,” he said. “If there are gases coming out, they could provide energy for a whole range of bacteria. A cave is also a protection from radiation; the surface of Mars is exposed to high levels of space radiation.The caves probably formed when tube-shaped lava flows(管状岩浆流) spread across the planet long ago. The outside of the tubes cooled,forming solid walls, while something hotter inside allowed the remaining lava to flow out, forming caves.”1. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. How the caves were formed on Mars.B. How scientists found these caves on Mars.C. Caves on Mars may be full of hot air or a sign of life.D. Scientists have completely recognized the surface of Mars.2. We can learn from the passage that.A. water has already been found on Mars B. the scientists found all the caves at nightC. it is certain that there is life in these cavesD. the surface of Mars is bitterly cold,radiation-soaked and dry3.

It is a planet on which the continents(洲，大陆) are dwarfed (相形见绌) by the ocean surrounding them and the vastness of the marine (海洋的) area. An astonishing 80 percent of all life on earth is to be found hidden beneath the waves and this vast global ocean drives the natural forces which keep life on our planet. The ocean provides necessary sources of protein, energy, minerals and other products and the rolling of the sea across the planet creates over half our oxygen, drives weather systems and natural flows of energy and nutrients around the world, transports water masses many times greater than all the rivers on land combined and keeps the earth suitable for living things to survive. Without the global ocean there would be no life on earth. It is seriously worrying, then, that we are damaging the ocean on a level that is unimaginable to most people. We now know that human activity can have a serious influence on the vital forces of our planet. We have fundamentally changed our global climate and are just beginning to understand the consequences of that. As yet largely unseen, but just as serious, are the influences we are having on the ocean. A healthy ocean has diverse ecosystems and strong and healthy habitats. The actual state of our ocean is a far cry from this natural state. A lot of pressure is being put directly and indirectly on ocean ecosystems by human activities.Consequently ecosystems are breaking down as marine species are in danger of dying out and ocean habitats are being destroyed. With the decrease in their diversity, ocean ecosystems are losing their natural way of recovery. We need to defend the ocean now more than ever, because climate change is having a potentially disastrous impact on the marine world.1、. What can we learn from Paragraph 2? A. What the ocean looks like. B. What the ocean is made up of. C. What live in the ocean. D. What functions the ocean has.2、. According to the text, the ocean directly provides people with _. A. water forming rivers B. comfortable habitats C. all the natural forces they need D. driving forces for energy and nutrients3、. It is not realized by many people that we have _. A. done great harm to the ocean B. benefited greatly from the ocean C. fundamentally changed our global climate D. begun to suffer the consequences of pollution4、. The best title for this text would be _. A. Protecting Our Planet B. Defending Our Ocean C. Getting to Know Our Planet D. Make Good Use of Our Ocean 【参考答案】14、DDAB 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。Time: April 8th, 2010 at 10 PM To April 9th, 2010 at 3 AMLocation: Babyface GuangzhouStreet: No.83 Changdi Da Ma Road, GuangzhouCity/Town: GuangzhouWebsite or Map: Phone: 020-8335 5771Organized By: Babyface China Official Grammy nominated (格莱美奖提名)artist and globally admired DJ and Producer Paul van Dyk continues to lead the electronic music charts and appears at the highpoint of every Top DJ list across the globe.
