　　.阅读理解

　　(2016·辽宁丹东五校联考)If the earth’s population is in growth at this rate，there will not be enough resources.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 the 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 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 the 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 (海藻有机体) that can live in extremely hot or cold atmospheres and at the same time produce oxygen，should be bred in condition similar to those on Venus.As soon as this has been done，the algae will be placed in small rockets.Spaceship 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 man to land on but the rain will eventually fall and in a few years something like the earth will be reproduced on Venus.

　　语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。地球上的资源越来越少，人类的生存即将面临挑战。如何拯救地球上的人类？一些科学家提出了移民金星的建议，同时建议在地球资源耗尽之前在金星上培植一种海藻有机体，让金星产生与地球一样的生存环境。1．In the long run，the most difficult problem caused by population growth on the earth will probably be the lack of ________.

　　A．oilB．food

　　C．resources D．space

　　D　[细节理解题。根据第一段第三句Even if scientists develop new ways of feeding the human race...look for open space somewhere else.可知，即使科学家开发出了供养人类的新方式，但是地球上拥挤的状况也使得人们去寻找更开阔的空间。由此可知，人口膨胀最大的问题是空间的问题。故选D项。]

　　2．Carl Sagan believes that Venus might be a living place because ________.

　　A．the days on Venus are long enough

　　B．it might be possible to change its atmosphere

　　C．there is a good supply of water on Venus

　　D．its atmosphere is the same as the earth’s

　　B　[细节理解题。根据第二段第一句．..it will be possible to change the atmosphere of Venus and so create a new world almost as large as the earth itself.可知，金星有可能改变它的大气继而成为适宜人类生存的地方。故选B项。]

　　3．Algae are plants that can ________.

　　A．live in very hot temperature

　　B．live in very cold temperature

　　C．produce oxygen

　　D．all of the above

　　D　[细节理解题。根据第三段第一句可知，海藻有机体可以在极热和极冷的温度下生存，同时还能产生氧气。故选D项。]

　　4．Man can land on Venus only when ________.

　　A．it rains there

　　B．there is oxygen

　　C．the atmosphere becomes cooler

　　D．the algae have done their work

　　A　[推理判断题。在文章最后一段中提到，在人类踏足金星之前需要氧气去制造雨水，然后又提到雨水最后会降落到金星上使得气温下降，这样人类就可以居住了。由此可以推测A项正确。]
