These soil changes can potentially contribute to even higher temperatures. They found a sharp increase in carbon released into the atmosphere by bacteria and fungi (真菌) in soil from 1990 to 2014. Researchers explain that the carbon es from the dead plants and leaves the microbes eat. As temperatures rise, the microbes eat more. And the more they eat, the more carbon can be made into carbon dioxide and released into the atmosphere. However, carbon released from fossil fuel causes an imbalance. Burning coal, oil and natural gas puts more carbon into the atmosphere than nature can take in. The additional carbon heats the air and soil. And as the air and soil get hotter, the earth will release more carbon than it has been holding.t done, we are really in trouble. Proper soil conservation can help keep more carbon in soil. Conservation methods include avoiding turning the soil, covering offseason crops and leaving crop deposits on the ground.（1）Which word can best describe the scientists39。s temperature to rise? bacteria. activities. overuses of soil. wastes of fossil fuels.（4）What can be a suitable title for the passage? soil and more carbon. soil and the environment. microbes and the temperatures. air and warmer environment.【答案】 （1）A（2）C（3）B（4）A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，介紹了人類燃燒燃料造成的土壤變化可能導(dǎo)致地球更高的溫度。根據(jù)第二段中的“Scientists studied device readings, soil measurements, plant growth details and satellite observations from around the world.
