To measure these ancient temperatures, researchers look to ice cores (冰核) and lake deposits. Since ice and lake deposits form by a gradual buildup on annual layers of snow or mud, these cores contain history of the past. By looking through the layers, researchers can obtain climate clues from centuries ago.(1)Why are the remains of flies mentioned in the first two paragraphs? serve as evidence that there is still life in the Northwest Greenland. were one of the many ancient lives that were left in the Greenland mud. are indicators that Greenland was much warmer than previously thought. help the researchers realize that there was once a warm period in the Arctic.(2)The new information about Greenland is important because______________. have no idea how to measure Greenland39。s ice sheets.

These adjustments can expose animals to new predators or force them into foodscarce regions. 可知,然而,Oschlies和他所在領(lǐng)域的其他人發(fā)現(xiàn),無論大小,海洋動物對氧氣的微小變化都有反應(yīng),它們在較高的含氧區(qū)尋求庇護,或是調(diào)整行為。因為所有的氧氣都進入了表面,所以較少的與海洋水的混合意味著更深的海洋含氧量更少。故選A。根據(jù)第二段中的It is no surprise to scientists that warming oceans are losing oxygen, but the scale of the drop calls for urgent attention. Oxygen levels in some tropical (熱帶的) regions have dropped by an astonishing 40 percent in the last 50 years, some recent studies reveal. Levels have dropped less significantly elsewhere, with an average loss of 2 percent globally.可知,對于科學(xué)家來說,變暖的海洋正在失去氧氣并不奇怪,但這種下降的規(guī)模需要緊急關(guān)注。D.The Survivability of Ocean AnimalsOcean acidification is more serious a problem than deoxygenation.C.The surface polar ice water prevents oxygen going down.D.The alarmingly changeable oxygen levels in the ocean.D. In the past decade ocean oxygen levels have taken a dive—an alarming trend that is linked to climate change, says Andreas Oschlies, an oceanographer at the Helmholtz Center for Ocean Research in Germany, whose team tracks ocean oxygen levels worldwide. We were surprised by the intensity of the changes we saw, how rapidly oxygen is going down in the ocean and how large the effects on marine ecosystems are, he says. It is no surprise to scientists that warming oceans are losing oxygen, but the scale of the drop calls for urgent attention. Oxygen levels in some tropical (熱帶的) regions have dropped by an astonishing 40 percent in the last 50 years, some recent studies reveal. Levels have dropped less significantly elsewhere, with an average loss of 2 percent globally.故選B。人們憑借科學(xué)技術(shù)發(fā)明了各式各樣的防寒方法。故選C。根據(jù)第二段中的Fortunately, things don39。根據(jù)第四段中的 At the touch of a button, or through an app on our phones, the clothing generates heat from elements placed inside. 可知,只要按下按鈕,或者通過手機上 應(yīng)用程序,安裝在衣服內(nèi)部的電子元件就會產(chǎn)生熱量。所以通過 keep warm可知,外出時要想暖和一些,就要多穿衣服。比如,用智能電子設(shè)備調(diào)節(jié)屋內(nèi)和衣物的溫度;使用無線科技制造會自動發(fā)熱的服飾。D.Ways of keeping warms the best title of this passage?
