21、her. Pouring downpours. Scientists have long suspected that global warming can cause extreme weather events. Now experts have numbers to support that idea. The burning of fossil fuels has been leading to a build-up of carbon dioxide in the Earths atmosphere. This CO2 is a greenhouse gas. That means

22、it can trap heal in the air. As a result, our planets temperature has been rising. And this global warming will account for a growing share of ever more frequent extreme weather events. Many governments hope to limit global warming to 2 degrees Celsius above temperatures that were typical before the

23、 Industrial Revolution. It will be hard for nations to achieve that. But even if they do, global warming still will be responsible for nearly all heat extremes. Global warming will also be to blame for about 2 out of every 5 extreme rains and snowfalls. “This is a considerable fraction (分数) of major

24、 weather events, ” says climate scientist Peter Stott. So far, the Earth has warmed about 0. 85 degree Celsius since 1750. Thats about when the Industrial Revolution got its start. Thats also when fossil fuel use took off, spewing (喷出) lots of CO2 into the air. “Overall, the new study shows that rel

25、atively small rises in the global temperature translate into large increases in the likelihood of extremes, ” Stott says. Erich Fischer and Reto Knutti analyzed 25 different computer models of global climate. These analyses looked at different climate periods, from preindustrial times to the present

26、. The analyses also predicted what weather events were likely to be like in the future. This period was predicted to be warmer by 2 and 3 degrees Celsius. The computer looked at when extreme heat and precipitation (降水量) occurred during each climate period. It focused on events of unusual heat or hea

27、vy precipitation. Before the Industrial Revolution, such extremes typically would have occurred only once in every 1, 000 days. “But since the globe has been warming, such extremes are no longer nearly as rare. These new findings provide a global statement, ” Fischer says. “You can still get the big

28、gest heat that you have ever seen without any human changes. ”【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文, 介绍了全球变暖形成的原因及其对极端天气的具体影响。5. The second paragraph is mainly about . A. what damage global warming causedB. how global warming came into beingC. where global warming is becoming seriousD. why fossil fuels have to be forbidde

31、rikes every region without differencesD. becomes a rare phenomenon across the planet【解析】选A。细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Before the Industrial Revolution, such extremes typically would have occurred only once in every 1, 000 days”和最后一段的第一句话“But since the globe has been warming, such extremes are no longer nearly

The Earth has suffered from extreme weather. D. Global warming makes the Earth hotter and hotter. 【解析】选B。主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了全球变暖造成了更多极端天气的发生,
