22、For more than 30 years, scientists have been arguing about how rainforests like the Amazon might have reacted to the cold dry climates of the ice age, but until now, no one has reached a satisfying answer.

Rainforests like the Amazon are important for mopping up CO2 from the atmosphere and helping to slow global warming. Nowadays, the trees in the Amazon take in around 500 million tons of CO2 each year; equal to the total amount of CO2 giving off in the U. K. each year. But how will the Amazon react to future climate change? If it gets drier, will it still survive and continue to draw down CO2? Scientists hope that they will be able to learn in advance how the rainforest will manage in the future by understanding how rainforests reacted to climate change in the past.

On the one hand, getting into the Amazon rainforest and collecting information are very difficult. On the other hand, to study past climate, scientists need to look at fossilized pollen (花粉) kept in lake mud. Going back to the last ice age means drilling deep down into lake sediments (沉淀物), which requires specialized equipment and heavy machinery. There are very few roads and paths, or places to land helicopters and planes. Rivers tend to be the easiest way to enter the forest, but this still leaves vast areas between the rives completely unsampled. So far, only a handful of cores have been drilled that go back to the last ice age and none of them provide enough information to prove how the Amazon rainforest reacts to climate change.

【1】Scientists have been arguing about how the Amazon might have ________ the cold dry climates of the ice age.

A．changed in response to

B．destroyed

C．influenced

D．protected

【2】Rainforests are important for ________ CO2 from the atmosphere and helping to slow global warming.

A．taking in

B．releasing

C．increasing

D．producing

【3】Nowadays, the CO2 the trees in the Amazon remove equals to the total amount of giving off in ________ each year.

A．the U.S.A.

B．the U.K.

C．England

D．Brazil

【4】Scientists research about how rainforests reacted to climate change in the past so that they may learn in advance about how the rainforests ________.

A．draw down CO2

B．still protect the soil

C．will get smaller

D．will manage in the future

【5】The way to go back to last ice age is to ________.

A．get into the forest

B．drill deep down into lake sediments

C．find some lake mud

D．look at fossilized pollen

【6】We may infer from the last paragraph that ________.

A．it’s possible to enter the Amazon through rivers to get enough information

B．so far, scientists have collected some information from the samples

C．it’s necessary to use helicopters for the research

D．there’s little information to study the past climate

23、   Why is that many teenagers have energy to play computer games until late at night， but can't find the energy to get out of bed in time for school？ According to a new report， today's teenagers are getting so little sleep but their health is in danger．

This raises serious questions about whether being short of sleep is influencing children's ability to pay attention at school． Research has shown that losing even just half an hour's sleep at night can have deep influences on how children perform the next day．

So why aren't teenagers getting enough sleep？Some experts suggest that televisions， computers and mobile phones in children's bedrooms may cause problems．Instead of reading a book at bedtime，children are playing computer games，surfing the web，sending messages， or watching television．As these new pre-sleep activities have become more common，more traditional ones such as reading have become less，Dr．Luci Wiggs，a researcher at Oxford

University's Section of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry said，“One of the problems with these pre-sleep activities is that they do not have clear start and end times which leads to being short of sleep．”

Research has shown that teenagers have different sleep patterns from adults．Human bodies produce melatonin（褪黑激素）to help fall asleep． Most adults start to produce melatonin at

about 10 pm，while teenagers only begin to produce it three hours later．It is possible that this  delay in melatonin production is caused by the behaviors of teenagers such as playing with phones late at night．

Problems about sleep- who needs how much and when -are usually connected to students' achievements． But modern brain researchers say it is time that more schools wake up to both biological and social facts and make a better timetable for their teenager students．

【1】What can we learn from Paragraph 2？

A.It's very common for teenagers to have less sleep．

B.It doesn't matter if children sleep half an hour less．

C.Being short of sleep has influence on children．

D.A good night sleep at weekends helps children study well．

【2】According to Dr．Luci Wiggs，．

A.too many pre-sleep activities take up teenagers' sleeping time．

B.playing computer games before bedtimes does harm to health．

C.fewer and fewer children read books at bedtime today．

D.teenagers shouldn't watch TV before they go to sleep．

【3】What does the underlined word 'delay' mean？

A.Rushing． B.Changing． C.Putting off． D.Cutting off．

【4】What can we infer from Paragraphs 4 and 5？

A.Schools need to offer more biology classes．

B.Teenagers may be kept awake by themselves．

C.Melatonin influences teenagers' achievements．

D.It's necessary for schools to start classes later．

【5】Which can be the best title for this passage？

A.Wake Up Sleeping Teenagers

B.Let Sleeping Teenagers Lie

C.Keep Away From Electronic Products

D.How to Sleep

24、   Young people can have problems with their minds. Some students become worried because they have to study very hard. Others have trouble getting on well with people like their parents and classmates.
