    The Threat to Kiribati
    The people of Kiribati are afraid that one day in the not-too-distant future, their country will disappear from the face of the earth - literally. Several times this year, the Pacific island nation has been flooded by a sudden high tide. These tides, which swept across the island and destroyed houses, came when there was neither wind nor rain. "This never happened before," say the older citizens of Kiribati.
    What is causing these mysterious high tides? The answer .may well be global warming. When fuels like oil and coal are being burned, pollutants (污染物)are released; these pollutants trap heat in the earth’s atmosphere. Warmer temperatures cause water to expand and also create more water by melting glaciers (冰川)and polar (極地的)ice caps.
    If the trend continues, scientists say, many countries will suffer. Bangladesh, for example, might lose one-fifth of its land. The coral (珊瑚)island nations of the Pacific, like Kiribati and the Marshall Islands, however, would face an even worse fate - they would be swallowed by the sea. The loss of these coral islands would be everyone’s loss. Coral formations are home to more species than any other place on earth.
    The people of these nations feel frustrated. The sea, on which their economies have always been based, is suddenly threatening their existence. They don’t have the money for expensive technological solutions like seawalls. And they have no control over the pollutants, which are being released mainly by activities in large industrialized countries. All they can do is to hope that industrialized countries will take steps to reduce pollution.
    16 The people of Kiribati worry that one day their country will be taken away by a sudden high tide.

    Kiribati 基里巴斯(西太平洋上一共和國(guó)),這篇文章是關(guān)于基里巴斯面對(duì)的威脅
    16. A 該題目說的是:Kiribati的人民擔(dān)心他們的國(guó)家將被突發(fā)的洪水淹沒。該題源于第一段的第一句:The people of Kiribati are afraid that one day in the not-too-distant future, their country will disappear from the face of the earth - literally. Kiribati的國(guó)民擔(dān)心在近期的某一天,他們的國(guó)家將會(huì)地球上面消失。
    17. A 該題目說的是:兇猛的浪潮曾經(jīng)在本來無風(fēng)無雨的日子里襲擊過Kiribati.該句源于第一段的第三句話:These tides, which swept across the island and destroyed houses, came when there was neither wind nor rain. 本地居民說在本來沒有風(fēng)雨(晴朗)的天氣里,浪潮襲擊了這個(gè)國(guó)家并摧毀了房屋。所以說法是正確的。 www.ExamW.CoM
    18. B 該題目說的是:燃燒石油和煤炭釋放的熱量是全球變暖的直接原因。但是,文章的第二段的第二句是這么說的:When fuels like oil and coal are being burned, pollutants (污染物) are released; These pollutants trap heat in the earth’s atmosphere. Warmer temperatures cause water to expand and also create more water by melting glaciers (冰川) and polar (極地的) ice caps.石油和煤炭等燃料燃燒時(shí)釋放污染物。這些污染物破壞地球大氣層。較高的氣溫引起了水的擴(kuò)張和冰川等的融化。雖然句中說到了石油和煤炭是間接原因而非直接原因。
    19. B 該題目說的是:科學(xué)家尚未確定全球變暖的影響的嚴(yán)重性。但是,文章的第三段說到:If the trend continues, scientists say, many countries will suffer.科學(xué)家說:如果這種趨勢(shì)延續(xù)下去,許多國(guó)家將會(huì)受到影響。
    20. C 該題目說的是:太平洋上的珊瑚島國(guó)家有者悠久的歷史。文章中沒有提及這方面。
    21. A 珊瑚島國(guó)的國(guó)民對(duì)于全球變暖不能做出任何實(shí)質(zhì)性的事情。該句源于最后一句話:All they can do is to hope that industrialized countries will take steps to reduce pollution.他們所能做到的就是祈禱那些發(fā)達(dá)國(guó)家采取措施來減少污染。
    22. C 該題目說的是:一些發(fā)達(dá)國(guó)際不愿意為減少污染浪費(fèi)金錢。文章沒有提及。
