Passage 2If the population of the earth goes on increasing at its present rate, there will eventually not be enough resources left to sustain life on the planet. By the middle of the 21st century, if present trends continue, we will have used up all the oil that drives our cars, for example. Even if scientists develop new ways of feeding the human race, the crowded conditions on earth will make it necessary for us to look for open space somewhere else. But none of the other planets in our solar system are capable of supporting life at present. One possible solution to the problem, however, has recently been suggested by an American scientist, Professor Carl Sagan.Sagan believes that before the earth's resources are completely exhausted it will be possible to change the atmosphere of Venus and so create a new world almost as large as earth itself. The difficulty is that Venus is much hotter than the earth and there is only a tiny amount of water there.Sagan proposes that algae organisms, which can live in extremely hot or cold atmospheres and at the same time produce oxygen, should be bred in conditions similar to those on Venus. As soon as this has been done, the algae will be placed in small rockets. Spaceships will then fly to Venus and fire the rockets into the atmosphere. In a fairly short time, the algae will break down the carbon dioxide into oxygen and carbon.When the algae have done their work, the atmosphere will become cooler, but before man can set foot on Venus it will be necessary for the oxygen to produce rain. The surface of the planet will still be too hot for men to land on it but the rain will eventually fall and in a few years something like earth will be reproduced on Venus.On Venus there is a lot of__________.A. waterB. carbon dioxideC. carbon monoxideD. oxygen

共用题干第二篇Superconducting Ceramic（陶瓷）An underaround revolution beqins this winter. With the flip（轻击）of a switch, 30,000 homes in one part of Detroit will soon become the first in the country to receive electricity transmitted by ice-cold high-performance cables.Other American cities are expected to follow Detroit's example in the years ahead,which could conserve enormousamounts of rower.The new electrical cables at the Frisbie power station in Detroit are revolutionary because they are made of superconductors.A superconductor is a material that transmits electricity with little or no resistance.Resistance is the degree to which a substance resists electric current.All common electrical conductors have a certain amount of electrical resistance.They convert at least some of the electrical energy passing through them into waste heat.Superconductors don't.No one understands how superconductivity works.It just does.Making superconductors isn't easy.A superconducting material has to be cooled to an extremely low temperature to lose its resistance.The first superconductors,made more than 50 years ago,had to be cooled to -263 degrees Celsius before they lost their resistance.Newer superconducting materials lose their resistance at-143 degrees Celsius.The superconductors cable installed at the Frisbie station is made of a ceramic material that contains copper,oxygen,bismuth（秘）,strontium（锶）and calcium (钙）.A ceramic is a hard,strong compound made from clay or minerals.The superconducting ceramic has been fashioned into a tape that is wrapped lengthwise around a long tube filled with liquid nitrogen.Liquid nitrogen is supercold and lowers the temperature of the ceramic tape to the point where it conveys electricity with zero resistance.The United States loses an enormous amount of electricity each year to resistance. Because cooled superconductors have no resistance,they waste much less power. Other cities are watching the Frisbie experiment in the hope that they might switch to superconducting cable and conserve power,too.What is the benefit of the revolution mentioned in the first paragraph?A:With a flip of switch,electricity can be transmitted,B:Other American cities can benefit from the high-performance cables.C:Great amounts of power can be conserved.D:Detroit will first receive electricity transmitted by the new electrical cables.
