21. The North and South poles are remote and freezing places that receive lots of animal visitors but few human tourists.
But even if you never plan to visit the polar bears in the north or penguins in the south, now is a perfect time to start thinking about them. That’s because 2007 marks the beginning of the International Polar Year (IPY), a two-year-old activity of science projects that aim to show how important the poles are to the health of our planet. During the IPY, which will last until March 2009, thousands of researchers from more than 60 countries will conduct more than 200 projects and expeditions(远征) to both the top and bottom of the world.
In recent years, the polar regions have begun to change severely as a result of global warming. Temperatures there are rising faster than anywhere else on Earth. As a result, the ice and snow in these regions are melting（融化） at record-setting rates. One result is that sea levels are rising around the world, putting animals and people at risk.
Only by studying the poles, say IPY researchers, can we find ways to protect them and ourselves.
Both the Arctic and the Antarctic are cold and remote, but the two regions have important differences. For one thing, the Arctic is an ice-covered ocean surrounded by land. The Antarctic, on the other hand, is a continent of ice-covered land surrounded by water.
Most polar studies have focused on the Arctic, and that is where scientists have observed the most remarkable changes in the ice. During a typical year, Arctic ice expands(扩大) in the winter and shrinks(缩小) in the summer. But recently, the amount of ice covering the ocean has been steadily dropping in both seasons.

53．Which of the following might be the best tile of the passage?
       A．Earth’s Poles Interest Scientists             B．The Animals of Earth’s Poles
       C．Earth’s Poles in Danger                         D．The Discoveries of Earth’s Poles
54．The goal of the International Polar Year is __________.
       A．to make it clear that the poles have much to do with a healthy earth
       B．to provide practical theory to further develop this distant area
       C．to call on as many scientists as possible to do research on the poles
       D．to discover more mysteries unknown to man
55．What is the main factor that has caused the changes of the poles?
       A．The increasing number of animals.            B．The development of the poles.
       C．The melting of the poles.                          D．The rising temperature.
56．What unusual phenomenon worries the scientists?
       A．In summer the ice of the Arctic loses faster.
       B．The ice covering the Arctic shrinks even in winter.
       C．The ice of the Arctic increases less than in the past.
       D．The changes in the Arctic are more serious.

22. The fourth round of heavy smog to hit Beijing in four weeks has sent more people to the hospital with respiratory（呼吸的） illnesses and led to calls for laws to control the pollution.
Pan Shiyi , a celebrity real estate developer said he is planning to propose a Clean Air Act to the local government. As a representative to the Beijing Municipal People's Congress, he started an online survey at 9:20 a.m. Within three hours, more than 25,000 web users, or 99 percent of total respondents, welcomed his proposal on Sina Weibo , China's Twitter.
They have good reasons to stand alongside Pan. The latest round of haze reduced visibility to under 500 meters in many parts of the city. The smog has also led to a great increase in respiratory illnesses, particularly among children and the elderly. Anxious parents and doctors almost all blame the smoggy air for the illnesses. Though most schoolchildren are home for the winter holidays, the bad air can easily move indoors. Besides, ordinary medical masks fail to provide adequate protection, so some people have turned to gas masks and respirators. ks5u
The causes of the scary smog are rather mysterious, though experts blame excessive emissions and the mountains around Beijing that trap pollution in winter, unless there is adequate wind to clear it away. Some critics have pointed fingers at China’s top two oil firms, China National Petroleum Corp and China Petrochemical Corporation, saying the companies’ outdated production technologies produce large quantities of substandard, high-polluting gas fuel.
Meanwhile, concerned Beijingers have moved their brainstorming sessions to cyberspace. If Pan’s proposal for a Clean Air Act is adopted, netizens say the new law should include items providing for “car-free days” in times of smog, higher standards for vehicle fuel, stricter restrictions on industrial and exhaust gas emissions, and more effective protection for the public.
Beijing is not the only city that has ever lost the blue sky. Five days of thick fog caused thousands of deaths in Britain in December 1952, urging the government to pass the first Clean Air Act in 1956, which introduced smokeless zones and cleaner fuels to reduce pollution. That may provide some experience for Beijing to refer to.
36. Why did Pan Shiyi started an online survey?
A. To investigate the public’s opinions on pollution.    
B. To tell people the danger of the smoggy weather.
C. To call on more people to support his proposal.
D. To collect supporting evidences for his proposal.
37. What can we learn from the passage?
A. People are clear about the causes of the smoggy weather.
B. Children staying indoors will not get respiratory illnesses.
C. Smog is worse for people with lower resistance to diseases.
D. Masks can give people protection against the smoggy weather.
38. Britain is mentioned in the last paragraph to ____.
A. suggest Beijing should learn from other countries
B. let people know many places have this problem
C. tell people the situation in Britain is worse
D. call on the government to pass Britain’s Clean Air Act
