考题共用题干第三篇Only special plants can survive in the terrible climate of a desert,for these are regions where the annual range of the soil temperature can be over 75℃.Furthermore,during the summer there are few clouds in the sky to protect plants from the sun's ray.Another problem is the fact that there are frequently strong winds which drive small-sharp particles of sand into the plants,tearing and damaging them.The most difficult problem for all forms of plant life,however,is the fact that the entire annual rainfall occurs during a few days or weeks in spring.Grasses and flowers in desert survive from one year to the next by existing through the long, hot,dry season in the form of seeds.These seeds remain inactive unless the right amount of rain falls.If no rain falls,or if insufficient rain falls,they wait until the next year,or even still the next.Another factor that helps these plants to survive is the fact that their life cycles are short.By the time that the water from the spring rains disappears—ust a few weeks after it falls一such plants no longer need any.The perennials（多年生植物）have special features which enable them to survive as plants for several years. Thus,nearly all desert perennials have extensive root systems below ground and a small shoot system above ground.The large root network enables the plant to absorb as much water as possible in a short time.The small shoot system,on the other hand,considerably limits water loss by evaporation（蒸发）.Another feature of many desert perennials is that after the rainy season they lose their leaves in preparation for the long,dry season,just as trees in wetter climates lose theirs in preparation for the winter. This reduces their water loss by evaporation during the dry season.Then,in the next rainy season,they come fully alive once more,and grow new branches,leaves and flowers,just as the grasses and flowers in desert do.We can learn from the passage that the shoot system of the perennials_________.A:can help the perennials absorb less of the sun's rayB:decides the appearance of the perennials in desertC:limits the function of the perennials' branchesD:may prevent the perennials from losing much water

At that rate,a lake may warm by a full degree Celsius in just 10 years.That difference may seem small一you might not even notice it in your bath.But in a lake,slightly warmer temperatures could mean more algae（水藻）,and algae can make the lake poisonous to fish.The study shows that in some regions,lakes are warming faster than the air around them.This is impor- tant because scientists often use measurements of air temperature to study how Earth is warming. By using lake temperatures as well,scientists can get a better picture of global warming. The scientists say data on lakes give scientists a new way to measure the impact of climate change around the world.That's going to be useful,since no country is too big or too small to ignore climate change.Scientists aren't the only ones concerned.Everyone who lives on Earth is going to be affected by the rapid warming of the planet. Many world leaders believe we might be able to do something about it,especially by reducing theamount of greenhouse（温室）gases we put into the air.That's why the United Nations started the Framework Convention on Climate Change,or UNFCCC.

考题共用题干第一篇Is Global Warming Good for Farming?You might think a little global warming is good for farming. Longer,warmer growing seasonsand more carbon dioxide(CO2）一what plant wouldn't love that?The agricultural industry basically agrees on that. But global warming's effects on agriculture would actually be quite complicated一and mostly not for the better.It's true that some crops will prosper on a warmer planet,but the key word there is"some."According to a government report,higher CO2 levels and longer growing seasons will increase yields for fruit growers in the Great Lakes region.But many major American crops already use CO2 so efficiently that more of it probably won't make much difference to them.What will make a difference are all the other things we'll have more or as temperatures rise一namely droughts（干旱）,bugs and big storms. More droughts mean lower crop yields. Melting snow in the Western US will increase water availability in spring but decrease it in summer,forcing farmers to change cropping practices.As insects that eat crops adapt their migration patterns to our warmer climate,farmers will have to either use more insecticide or plant hardier crops.Farmers on both coasts are already starting to reap some of what the nation's fossil-fuel addiction has sown.Crops in those regions require a certain number of colder days or"winter chill"before they break dormancy（冬眠）and begin flowering. Too few cold days breaks the plants' flowering schedule which in turn affects pollination（授粉）and hurts yield.So,given how much is at stake for them,how are farm states working to shape climate legislation?In response to agricultural demands,the Waxman-Markey bill frees the agricultural industry from CO2 emission limits and gives up control over what activities guarantee carbon offset credit to the Agricultural Department.Some farmers一and some farm state congressional leaders一have argued that because plants convert CO2 into oxygen,agricultural lands store more CO2 than they emit. This is only theoretically true.What we can say with certainty is that,like most big industries,farming is fossil-fuel intensive一large quantities of CO2 are emitted from farm equipment such as irrigation pumps and tractors.What is the result of"the nation's fossil-fuel addiction"on both coasts?A:Plants yield decreases due to shortened winter chill.B:Plants yield without dormancy and flowering.C:Crops require longer winter chill than before.D:The yields are no longer influenced by the climate.

考题共用题干 Lakes,Too,Feel Global WarmingThere's no doubt;In the last few decades,the average temperature on Earth has been higher than it hasbeen in hundreds of years,Around the world,people are starting to measure the effects of global warming一 and trying to figure out what to do about it.Scientists recently used satellites to study the temperatures of lakes around the world,and they found that lakes are heating up.Between 1985 and 2009,satellites recorded the nighttime temperatures of the sur- faces of 167 lakes.During those 24 years,the lakes got warmer一by an average of about 0.045 degreeCelsius per year.In some places,lakes have been warming by as much as 0.10 degree Celsius per year. At that rate,a lake may warm by a full degree Celsius in just 10 years?That difference may seem imull一you might not even notice it in your bath.But in a lake,slightly warmer temperatures could mean more algae（水藻）,and algae can make the lake poisonous（有毒的）to fish.The study shows that in some regions,lakes are warming faster than the air around them.This is impor- tant because scientists often use measurements of air temperature to study how Earth is warming.By using lake temperatures as well,scientists can get a better picture of global warming.The scientists say data on lakes give scientists a new way to measure the impact of climate change around the world.That’s going to be useful,since no country is too big or too small to ignore climate change.Scientists aren't the only ones concerned、 Everyone who lives on Earth is going to be affected by the rapid warming ofthe planet.Many world leaders believe we might be able to do something about it,especially by reducing the amount of greenhouse（温室）gases we put into the air.That’s why the United Nations started the F'ramework Convention on Climate Change,or UNFCCC. Every year the convention meets,and representatives from countries around the world gather to talk about climate change and discuss global solutions to the challenges of a warming world.The temperatures of lakes around the world have increased greatly between 1985 and 2009.A:Right B:WrongC:Not mentioned
