单选题 主观题 写作题

The world"s oceans have warmed 50 percent faster over the last 40 years than previously thought due to climate change, Australian and US climate researchers reported Wednesday.Higher ocean temperatures expand the volume of water, contributing to a rise in sea levels that is covering small island nations and threatening to destroy the low-lying, densely-populated low regions around the globe.
The study, published in the British journal Nature, adds to a growing scientific chorus of warnings about the pace and consequences rising oceans.It also serves as a corrective to a massive report issued last year by the Nobel-winning UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), according to the authors.
Rising sea levels are driven by two things: the thermal expansion of sea water, and additional water from melting sources of ice.Both processes are caused by global warming.The ice sheet that sits atop Greenland, for example, contains enough water to raise world ocean levels by seven meters, which would bury sea-level cities from Dhaka to Shanghai.
Trying to figure out how much each of these factors contributes to rising sea levels is critically important to understanding climate change, and forecasting future temperature rises, scientists say.But up to now, there has been a puzzling gap between the projections of computer-based climate models, and the observations of scientists gathering data from the oceans.
The new study, led by Catia Domingues of the Centre for Australian Weather and Climate Research, is the first to reunite the models with observed data.Using new techniques to assess ocean temperatures to a depth of 700 meters from 1961 to 2003, it shows that thermal warming contributed to a 0.53 millimeter-per-year rise in sea levels rather than the 0.32 mm rise reported by the IPCC.

1. Ultimately, the new study should help scientists to __.

Alower water levels

Bchange their opinions

Cbetter predict climate change

Dbury sea-level cities like Dhaka and Shanghai

Many people use wood stoves and fireplaces to heat their homes.Scientists have become worried about the smoke that they give off.Harmful chemicals are in the smoke.The smoke is causing air pollution.The pieces of pollution, called soot, are floating in the air.They are too tiny to see.Scientists must use a microscope to see them.
Small amounts of soot are safe, but large amounts can be dangerous.The govenment wants to limit this kind of pollution.It may stop people from using their fireplaces.
The air is tested every day.When soot levels are high, more than 65 micrograms of soot per cubic meter, factories must stop making smoke.The government thinks that limit should be much lower.
Factories produce the most smoke and soot.But the government thinks that all types of burning should be limited.The soot levels from factories and homes could be limited.Home owners may have to install new wood stoves that they comply with the new law.Or, they may not be able to bum on days when the air quality is bad.
Residents of some towns are fined if they violate the burning ban.Scientists hope these new regulations will make the air cleaner and less harmful to breathe.

2. What could home owners do to comply with the new regulation?

AWrite a letter

BAsk for permission

CUse more electricity

DInstall new low-soot fireplaces
