prevents the heat from escaping.according to a weather experts prediction，the atmosphere will be warmer in the year 2050 than it is today，if man continues to burn fuel at the present rate.if this warming up took place，the ice caps in the poles would begin to melt，thus raising sea level several meters and severely flooding coastal cities.also，the increase in atmospheric temperature would lead to great changes in the climate of the northern hemisphere.in the past，concern about a man-made warming of the earth has concentrated on the arctic because the antarctic is much colder and has a much thicker ice sheet.but the weather experts are now paying more attention to west antarctic，which may be affected by only a few degrees of warming，in other words，by a warming on the scale that will possibly take place in the next fifty years from the burning of fuels.satellite pictures show that large areas of antarctic ice are already disappearing.the evidence suggests that a warming has taken place.this fits the theory that carbon dioxide warms the earth.however，most of the fuel is burnt in the northern part of the earth，where temperatures seem to be falling.scientists conclude, therefore，that up to now natural influences on the weather have exceeded those caused by man.the question is: which natural cause has the most effect on the weather?one possibility is the behavior of the sun.astronomers at one research station have studied the hot spots and “cold” spots，that is，the relatively less hot spots，on the sun.this seems to have a greater effect on the distribution of the earths atmospheric pressure，and consequently on wind circulation(循环)the sun is also variable(可变的)over a long term.its heat output(输出)goes up and down in cycles.the latest trend being downward is on the way.but that is only an imagination.语篇解读本文讲述的是影响天气的诸多原因，包括人类活动和太阳运动。1the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would _.aprevent the suns rays from reaching the earths surfacebmean a warming up in the

the earths climatedpossibly due to the activity of the sun解析：细节理解题。文章第三段提及这一现象时讲到，科学家们认为：这一现象的产生是因为到目前为止自然界对天气的影响要大于人类对天气的影响。而究竟是哪种自然力量对天气的影响最大呢？文章第四段第一句话给出了答案：其中一个可能就是太阳的活动。d项与此意相符。答案：d4what does the underlined word “exceeded” mean?ato be the same as.bto be slower than.cto be better than. dto be bigger than.解析：词义猜测题。由倒数第一段的this seems to have a greater effect on the distribution of the earths
