night is below 50 degrees and winds of 100 miles 161 kilometres per hour cause severe dust storms However the surface of the planet seems to show that water flowed across it at some time in the past and it is believed that there is enough ice at the poles to cover the planet with water if it melted although there is no life on Mars now some scientists think that there may have been some form of life a long time ago At that time the planet had active volcanoes 火山 the atmosphere was thicker and warmer and there was water In fact in some ways Mars may have been similar to Earth where life exists Some people believe that Mars could support life in the future if right conditions were produced The first step would be to warm the planet using certain gases which trap the sun s heat in the planet s atmosphere With warmth water and carbon dioxide simple plants could begin to grow These 5 plants could slowly make Mars fit to live on It is judged that the whole process might take between 100 000 and 200 000 years In the meantime people could begin to live on the planet in special closed environments They would provide a lot of useful information about conditions on Mars and the problems connected with living there 56 According to the passage the planet Mars has no on it A wind B dust C mountains D animals 57 It is believed that on Mars now A there is a large amount of ice at the poles B there is a thicker and warmer atmosphere C there are some kinds of simple plants D there are so many active volcanoes 58 What is the main idea of Paragraph 2 A Certain gases should be used to warm Mars B Plants should be grown to make Mars fit to live on C Mars could support life on right conditions in the future D People could live on Mars in special closed environments 59 The most suitable title for the passage is A No Life on Mars B Study of Mars C The Possibility of Life on Mars D The Future Conditions on Mars B Scientists 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 and 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 years to the useful lifetime of our planet effectively 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 to Earth Earth s 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 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 compromise our biosphere 生物圈 by cooking us That s 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 Earth with deadly results 6 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 planet s climate 60 If the plan is successful Earth will have a working life of years A 12 billion B 6 billion C 18 billion D 24 billion 61 What makes the scientists plan to save Earth A A few comets are moving to the direction of Earth B Earth s working life is coming to an end soon C Earth will become too hot for mankind to keep alive D The moon is moving farther and farther away from Earth 62 What does the underlined word compromise in Paragraph 6 mean A Provide B Benefit C Share D Endanger 63 What serious problems might the plan cause according to the passage A Earth might be moved too far away and man might be frozen to death B The comet might hit Earth and man might lose the moon C The comet might hit Jupiter or Saturn and never return to Earth D Earth s working life might be greatly shortened C It was on her 14th birthday that her first book In the Forest of the Night was accepted for publication At 16
