The Northern Lights

The Sun is stormy(狂暴的)and has its own kind of weather. It is so hot and active that even the Sun ' s
gravity cannot hold its atmosphere in check(控制,支配)!Energy flows away from the Sun toward the Earth
in a stream of electrified particles(电粒子)that move at speeds around a million miles per hour. These path-
dles are called plasma(等离子体), and the stream of plasma coming from the Sun is called the solar wind.
The more active the Sun,the stronger the solar wind.
The solar wind constantly streams toward the Earth,but don't worry because a protective magnetic field
(磁场)surrounds our planet. The same magnetic field that makes your compass point north also steer(引
导)the particles from the Sun to the north and south poles.The charged particles become trapped in
magnetic belts around the Earth.When a large blast of solar wind crashes into the Earth's magnetic field,the
magnetic field first gets squeezed and then the magnetic field lines break and reconnect.
The breaking and reconnecting of the magnetic field lines can cause atomic particles(原子粒子)called
electrons(电子)trapped in the belts to fall into the Earth ' s atmosphere at the poles. As the electrons fall to
the Earth,they collide with gas molecules(分子)in the atmosphere,creating flashes of light in the sky. Each
atmospheric gas glows a different color. Oxygen and nitrogen glow red and green and nitrogen glows violet-
purple. As these various colors glow and dance in the night sky,they create the Northern Lights and the
Southern Lights.
Watching auroras is fun and exciting,but normally you can only see them in places far north like Alaska
and Canada. The movement of the aurora across the sky is usually slow enough to easily follow with your eyes
but they can also pulsate(跳动),flicker,or even move like waves. During solar maximum,auroras are seen
as far south as Florida,even Mexico!
Auroras often seem to be very close to the ground,but the lowest aurora is still about 100 kilometers
above the ground,a distance much higher than clouds are formed or airplanes can fly.A typical aurora band
can be thousands of kilometers long,a few hundred kilometers high,but only a few hundred meters thick.
We hope you are able to travel to far-north places like the Arctic Circle and see the Northern Lights at
least once during your lifetime.We know you will never forget it!

You cannot see the Northern Lights unless you are in Alaska or Canada.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned

参考解析

解析:题干的意思是:太阳的重力太弱,等离子体逃离太阳,流向地球。这一说法与文章第一段第一句和第二句表达的意思不符。句子表达的重点不是太阳的重力太弱,而是太阳太热,其 活动又太剧烈,造成等离子体逃离太阳,流向地球。
题干说,地球相当安全因为有磁场包围着地球,保护地球免受太阳风的攻击。这与文 章第二段第一句的意思是一致的。
题干说,有些科学家担心包围地球起防护作用的磁场有一天会消失。这在文章中没有 提到。
文章第二段和第三段解释极光的成因。当强大的太阳风侵人地球磁场,磁场的磁力线 会断开和闭合,等离子流的电子进入大气层,流向极地上空,与大气层的气体分子发生碰撞,发 出极光。这个意思与文章相符。
根据文章表述“Watching auroras is fun and exciting , but normally you can only see them inplaces far north like Alaska and Canada.The movement of the aurora across the sky is usually slow enough to easily follow with your eyes but they can also pulsate(跳动), flicker , or even move likewaves.During solar maximum , auroras are seen as far south as Florida , even Mexico!”可知题干的表 述是错误的。
题干的意思是:每年有数万游客专程前往挪威和瑞典观看北极光。文章中找不到这一 内容。
题干说极光通常很接近地面,又长又厚。这一说法有两点与文章第五段的介绍不符。 第一点,极光不是很接近地面,而是“似乎很接近地面”,事实上,最靠近地面的极光离地面也 有约100千米。第二点,极光不厚," only a few hundred meters thick"。
