lungs, could make global warming worse. and the pollutants still go up around the air, along with carbon dioxide.these pollutants are called aerosols (气溶粒) and they include soot as well as mixtures of nitrogen(氮) and sulfur(硫) and other stuff into the air. natalie mahowald, a climate researcher at cornell university, says so far, scientists have mostly tried to understand what those aerosols do while theyre actually in the air.there are so many different kinds of aerosols, she says. some warm and some cool. but in fact, humans are giving out a lot of extra aerosols, and they tend to cool for the most part.the aerosols reflect sunlight back into space, or keep us cool. but it turns out thats not all they do. these aerosols also influence how much carbon dioxide gets drawn out of the air by plants on land and in the sea.they can add nutrients, for example, to the oceans or to the land, mahowald says. but also while theyre in the atmosphere they can change the climate, and thus that also can influence the amount of carbon, the land or the ocean can take up. so there are quite a few different ways that aerosols can act on each other.mahowalds results suggest that reducing those pollutants could be an even bigger problem than realized, when you consider that aerosols help remove carbon dioxide from the air by encouraging plant growth. hard numbers on this effect are highly uncertain at the moment, but this could turn out to be quite significant.and studying it is not easy because the effects arent well understood. for example, nitrogen can be a fertilizer (肥料), but it can stop plant growing when nitrogen comes out of the air in acid form. right now it seems like were much more likely to clean up aerosol pollution, while increasing the amount of carbon dioxide in the air. so scientists, unfortunately, may have a chance to see whether this experiment on our planet should continue or not.36. from paragraph 2, we know that .a. scientists have been aware of how aerosols workb. natalie mahowald is an expert in climatec. cleaning up the air is so populard. pollutants are under control so far【答案】b【解析】细节理解题。由第二段第二句natalie mahowald的同位语a climate researcher at
