(每小题: 分)
Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage. If the population of the Earth goes on increasing at its present rate, there will eventually not be enough resources left to support life on the planet. One possible solution to the problem has recently been suggested by an American scientist, Professor Carl Sagan: he believes that before the Earth's resources are completely used up it will be possible to change the atmosphere (大气圈) of Venus (金星) 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 has only a tiny amount of water.
Sagan suggests that algae (藻类), plant life that can live in extremely hot or cold atmospheres and at the same time produce
oxygen, should be produced in conditions similar to those on Venus. 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 gasses in the atmosphere and change them into oxygen that people can breathe. But before man can set foot on Venus, it will be necessary for the oxygen to produce rain to cool the planet, so that after a few years conditions like those on Earth will be produced.
If the experiments are successful, life will become possible there but it will not be pleasant at first. When they go to Venus, the first citizens will have to take plenty of water with them and get used to days and nights lasting 60 Earth days. But there will also be some advantages. They will live longer because their hearts will suffer less stress than on Earth. 1.
