DThe Greatest Mystery of WhalesThe whale is a mammal - warm-blooded, air-breathing, giving birth to its young alive, sucking them-and, like all mammals, originated on land.

But if they absolutely refuse，methadone is better than heroin.”Basically the idea is to apply “sunscreen” to the whole planet.One astronomer has come up with a radical plan to cool Earth;launch trillions of feather-light discs into space，where they would form a vast cloud that would block the suns rays.Its controversial，but recent studies suggest there are ways to deflect just enough of the sunlight reaching the Earths surface to counteract the warming produced by the greenhouse effect.Global climate models show that blocking just 1.8 per cent of the incident energy in the suns rays would cancel out the warming effects produced by a doubling of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. That could be crucial，because even the most severe emissions-control measures being proposed would leave us with a doubling of carbon dioxide by the end of this century，and that would last for at least a century more.1. According to the first two paragraphs，the author thinks thatA strong measures have been taken by the government to prevent global warming.B to reduce carbon emissions is all impossible mission.C despite the difficulty，scientists have some options to prevent global warming.D actions suggested by scientists will never be realized.2. Scientists resist talking about their options because they dont want people toA know what they are doing.B feel their efforts are useless.C think the problem has been solved.D see the real problem.3. What does Stephen Schneider say about a heroin addict and methadone?A Methadone is an effective way to treat a hard heroin addict.B Methadone is not a correct way to treat a heroin addict.C Hospitalization together with methadone can work effectively with a heroin addict.D Methadone and heroin are equally effective in treating a heroin addict.4. What is Stephen Schneiders idea of preventing global warming?A To ask governments to take stronger measures;B To increase the sunlight reaching the Earth.C To apply sunscreen to the Earth.D To decrease greenhouse gases.5. What is NOT true of the effectiveness of “sunscreen”，according to the lastparagraph?A It deflects sunlight reaching the Earth to counteract the warming.B It blocks the incident energy in the suns rays.C It is a controversial method.D It decreases greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.答案：CCACD补全短文The first four minutesWhen do people decide whether or not they want to become friends? During their first four minutes together, according to a book by Dr. Leonard Zunin. In his book, Contact: The first four minutes, he offers this advice to anyone interested in starting new friendships: _1_. A lot of peoples whole lives would change if they did just that.You may have noticed that average person does not give his undivided attention to someone he as just met._2_. If anyone has ever done this to you, you probably did not like him very much.When we are introduced to new people, the author suggests, we should try to appear friendly and self-confident. In general, he says, People like people who like themselves.On the other hand, we should not make the other person think we are too sure of ourselves. It is important to appear interested and sympathetic, realizing that the other person has his won needs, fears, and hopes.Hearing such advice, one might say, But Im not a friendly, self-confident person. Thats not my nature. It would be dishonest for me to at that way._3_. We can become accustomed to any changes we choose to make in our personality. It is like getting used to a new car. It may be unfamiliar at first, but it goes much better than the old one.But isnt it dishonest to give the appearance of friendly self-confidence when we dont actually feel that way? Perhaps, but according to Dr. Zunin, total honest is not always good for social relationships, especially during the first few minutes of contact. There is a time for everything, and a certain amount of play-acting may be best for the first few minutes of contact with a stranger. That is not the time to complain about ones health or to mention faults one finds in other people. It is not the time to tell the whole truth about ones opinions and impressions._4_. For a husband and wife or a parent and child, problems often arise during their first four minutes together after they have been apart. Dr. Zunin suggests that these first few minutes together be treated with care. If there are unpleasant matters to be discussed, they should be dealt with later.The author says that interpersonal relations should be
