Ⅲ.阅读理解

“The world's oceans are slowly getting more acidic，”say scientists.The researchers from California report that the change is taking place in response to higher levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
The lowering of the waters' pH value is not great at the moment but could cause a serious threat to current ocean life if it continues，they warn.Ken Caldeira and Michael Wickett，from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory，report their concerns in the journal Nature. Increasing use of oil fuels means that more carbon dioxide is going into the air，and most of it will eventually be absorbed by sea water.Once in the water，it reacts to form carbonic acid.Scientists believe that the oceans have already become slightly more acidic over the last century.
These researchers have tried to predict what will happen in the future by combining what we know about the history of the oceans with computer models of climate change.“This level of acidity will get much more extreme in the future if we continue releasing CO2 into the atmosphere，”says Dr.Caldeira.“And we predict the amount of future acidity will exceed(超过)anything we have seen over the last several hundred million years，let alone perhaps after rare disastrous events such as asteroid(小行星)impacts.”
However，it is not absolutely clear what that means for ocean life.Most organisms live near the surface，where the greatest pH change would be expected to occur，but deep­ocean life forms may be more sensitive to pH changes.Coral reefs and other organisms whose shells contain calcium carbonate(碳酸钙)may be particularly affected if the water's acidity levels keep going up，the team predict.They could find it much more difficult to build these structures in water with a lower pH.
In recent years some people have suggested storing carbon dioxide from power stations in the deep ocean as a way of dealing with global warming.But Dr.Caldeira said that such a strategy should now be reconsidered.“Previously，most experts had looked at ocean absorption of carbon dioxide as a good thing－because in releasing CO2 into the atmosphere we warm the planet，and when CO2 is absorbed by the ocean，it reduces the amount of greenhouse warming.”
1.The ocean is becoming more acidic due to________.
A．the lower water pH value
B．the warming atmosphere
C．the higher level of CO2 in the air
D．the increasing use of oil fuels
【解析】　细节理解题。从文章中的第一段可以找到答案。
【答案】　C
2．If the water's acidity level keeps rising，________.
A．ocean life whose structures contain calcium carbonate may be affected
B．the waters' pH value will become higher and higher
C．organisms living near the surface are more sensitive to pHchanges
D．some disastrous events will occur more often than before
【解析】　细节理解题。由文章中第四段的倒数第二句可知答案。
【答案】　A
3．Most experts once believed storing carbon dioxide in the ocean would reduce________.
A．the CO2 absorbed by the ocean
B．the amount of greenhouse warming
C．the acidity of the ocean
D．the gradual release of CO2
【解析】　细节理解题。从最后一段的第一句可知答案。
【答案】　B
4．The purpose of this passage is to________.
A．show people the findings of a research team
B．inform people of how acid the ocean is now
C．introduce Dr.Caldeira and his team's research
D．warn people of the higher level of CO2
【解析】　综合全文信息，在介绍Dr.Caldeira和他的研究成员对二氧化碳、pH、温室效应等的研究后，文章指出了目前和未来严峻的形势，目的是要引起人们的注意。
【答案】　D
B
Coal mine accidents are frequently headline makers in China，offering a plentiful supply of long lists of the dead.Before this，five major coal mine accidents since January have already claimed lives of 287 coal miners.Once an accident happens，the safety measures are scrutinized，officials and owners responsible are punished or warned or fined.But the accidents keep happening time and again.The background of these endless disasters is a country thirsty for energy to satisfy the appetite of its economic engine.
With the rich reserve(储藏量) of coal and relatively limited petroleum(石油) reserve，the former makes up 67.12 percent of energy consumption.By contrast，petroleum and natural gas take about 60 percent of the energy consumption in other countries.
Such a situation is unlikely to change within a foreseeable future because the country still counts heavily on coal for more and more energy.If no measures with great effects are taken to improve the safety in the mines，the accidents will remain a long­term headache for China.
Digging coal underground is，by its nature，a dangerous job.No equipment can guarantee 100 percent safety for the miners working underground because numerous uncertainties exist.
Most of China's coal mines are far from being mechanized.The average output of coal for each Chinese coal miner every day is 1 ton，while the number in the US coal mines，where the production is highly mechanized，is 40 tons.
Mechanized production in coal mines can cut down the number of miners who have to work on the dangerous coal face.It can also enhance the capability of the mines to detect potential danger.In this way the casualty of mine accidents will be decreased.
Admittedly，the mechanized production demands financial support.
But what is the price of a life，or a dozen，a score－a hundred？Compare these awful figures with the misery they bring，heavy investment is worthy.
5．The writer's attitude towards dealing with coal mine accidents is________.
A．critical B．sarcastic
C．optimistic D．pessimistic
【解析】　作者态度题。第一段中提到，事故发生后，官员和矿主只是被惩罚、警告或罚款，而事故依然不断发生，由此可见作者对处理煤矿事故的做法持“批评”态度。后三项分别表示“讽刺的，乐观的，悲观的”。
【答案】　A
6．The underlined word “scrutinized” most probably means _______.
A．made B．examined
C．criticized D．discussed
【解析】　词义猜测题。事故发生后，自然要对安全措施进行“检查”。
【答案】　B
7．According to the writer，the BEST way to stop coal mine accidents is to________.
A．perfect safety measures
B．use more natural gas
C．cut down the number of miners
D．improve mechanized production
【解析】　作者意图题。文章的第五段提到美国的机械化采煤效率是中国的40倍，再结合倒数第三段中的内容可知作者认为最好的方法是改善机械生产。
【答案】　D
8．The writer implies in the article that________.
A．by improving mechanized production，we can stop coal mine accidents
B．it's improper to depend too much on coal for energy consumption
C．officials and coal mine owners didn't take safety measures seriously
D．losing lives costs much more than improving mechanized production
【解析】　推理判断题。根据最后一段中的内容可知作者认为人的生命的价值远远高于用于改善机械生产的费用。
【答案】　D
