The country is at risk of disappearing because of coastal flooding， erosion, and frequent storms.Tuvalu2019 Population： 11，508.Tuvalu is a small chain of islands in the Pacific Ocean。 For more than 25 years， its representatives have raised alarms that climate change could raise sea levels enough to flood the islands.

TuvaluC. Marshall IslandsD. ShishmarefBThe term “crocodile tears” refers to insincere sadness。 This term has an etymology dating back several centuries。 As early as the fourth century, crocodile tears are referenced in the literature with the meaning of insincere sorrow。 It is said that crocodiles weep while eating their hunted animals because they are sad； however, this sadness is not honest。The term crocodile tears becamewidely popular after it was documented in a fifteenth-century book titled The Voyage and Travel of Sir John Mandeville， Knight。 A passage from the book reads： ”These crocodiles kill men and theyeat them weeping。”As you may already know, crocodilians （鳄目动物）likely feel bad about littleespecially feeding。 However， the assumption of the crocodiletears metaphor may be true. In a 2007 paper published in BioScience titled “Crocodile Tears： And they eaten them wepynge ”(“Crocodile Tears： And they eat them weeping”）， researchers observed 7 crocodilians in cages during feeding time at a reserve （4 caimans and 3 American alligators）。 The researchers observed the animals outside of water at feeding stations to better find out whether tearing developed。Five of the 7 crocodihans developed something like tears in their eyes before， during or after feeding. The researchers suggest that these crocodile tears occur because a crocodilian hisses （发出嘶嘶声)while it cats， and this hissing forces air through the spaces in the bone behind the nose and out the eye, in the process picking up nasolacrimal secretions （鼻泪管分泌物。In humans， crocodile tears is a medical condition that causes a person to tear up while eating。 Crocodile tears typically occur because of a temporary loss of facial control due to damage of the facial nerve. Specifically， when the facial nerve grows again， it does so incorrectly thus resulting in tears during chewing food.58. The underlined word “etymology in Paragraph 1 refers to_。A.a reference book containing articles on various topicsB.the origin and history of a particular termC。a printed sheet of paper that arc given free to advertiseD。the application and influeme of a new theory59。 The term crocodile tears_。A。is a medical condition that causes a crocodile to tear upB。became widely popular as early as the fourth centuryC。refers to pretended sadnessD。proved to be only an assumption60. From the 2007 paper published in BioScience， we can know thatA.crocodilians especially feel bad about feedingB.not all the 7 crocodilians developed tearingC.the crocodilians were carefully observed inside waterD。crocodile tears occur because a crocodilian hisses after it eats61。 The passage is mainly about_。A.what the real truth is about crocodile tearsB。when the term ”crocodile tears” got popular in literatureC。how researchers made the experiment on crocodiliansD。why crocodile tears typically occur in humansCFor several decades， there has been an organized campaign intended to produce distrust in science， funded by those whose interests are threatened by the findings of modem science。 In response, scientists have tended to stress the success of science。 After all， scientists have been right about most things， from the structure of the universe to the relativity of time and space。Stressing successes isnt wrong， but for many people ifs not persuasive。 An alternative answer to the question “Why trust science？” is that scientists use the socalled scientific method. But what is called the scientific method isnt what scientists actually do. Science is dynamic: new methods get invented； old ones get abandoned； and at any particular point， scientists can be found doing many different things。 False theories sometimes lead to true results， so even if an experiment works, it doesnt prove that the theory it was designed to test is true.If there is no specific scientific method， then what is the basis for trust in science? The answer is the methods by which those claims are evaluated。 A scientific claim is never accepted as true until it has gone through a long process of examination by fellow scientists. Scientists draft the initial version of a paper and then send it to colleagues for suggestions。 Until this point， scientific feedback is typically fairly friendly。 But the next step is different： the revised paper is submitted to a scientific journal， where things get a whole lot tougher. Editors deliberately send scientific papers to people who are not friends or colleagues of the authors, and the job of the reviewer is to find errors or other faults。 We call this process peer review because the reviewers are scientific peersexperts in the same field-but they act in the role of a superior who has both the right and the responsibility to find fault。 It is only after the reviewers and the editor are satisfied that any problems have beenfixed that the paper will be printed in the journal and enters the body of “science.Some people argue that we should not trust science because scientists arc “always changing their minds. While examples of truly settled science being overturned are far fewer than is sometimes claimed， they do exist. But the beauty of this scientific process is that science produces both creativity and stability。 New observations， ideas， explanations and attempts to combine competing claims introduce creativity； transformative questioning leads to collective
