21、 worlds carbon emissions, but it is a figure destined to rise. The aviation industry is expanding at a dramatic rate, around 5 percent a year. Twice as many passengers are likely to be passing through British airports in 2020 compared with today, and three times by 2030. As the developed world ackno

22、wledges climate change warnings, the carbon emissions from other industries will fall. The aviation industrys output will therefore account for an even larger percentage of emissions. One calculation, by the Climate Change Research (CCR), suggests the U. K. aviation industry could end up accounting

23、for every gram of our carbon quota by 2040. Such calculations suppose aircraft designers cannot clean up their act, a suggestion firmly rejected by experts who point to a massive research program aimed at cutting fuel use by planes by around 50 percent by 2020, a move that would also halve their car

24、bon emissions. To reach that aim, a key factor will be lightweight composites, materials made of several components, including carbon fibres. These are as strong and flexible as metal but as light as plasti C. Planes such as the Airbus A340 are already made of material that is 10 percent carbon comp

25、osite. This cuts weight, decreases fuel use and reduces carbon emission. The next generation of aircrafts, will make even more use of composites: a tremendous saving in weight, fuel and carbon. Then there is the simple matter of air traffic control. At present, individual countries have their own ro

26、utes for aircraft crossing their airspaces. “Essentially aircraft travel on dog-legs across Europe, and that is very inefficient in terms of fuel use, “ said Dr. John Green, of the Royal Aeronautical Society. “We need to rationalize air traffic control so that planes fly in straight, energy-efficien

27、t lines, an idea that is now being discussed in the EU. “ Finally, there is aviation fuel. Making it ecologically friendly poses the greatest challenges of all. Biofuels can be used as petrol and diesel substitutes for cars and lorries, but not in planes. “Biofuel is essentially alcohol, and that bu

28、rns at the wrong temperature for aircraft engines, “ says Green. “We can use coal to make kerosene, which we could burn in aircraft engines, but that does not help the issue of global warming, of course. “ But this does not stop scientists from dreaming. One idea, put forward by the U. S. geneticist

29、 Craig Venter last week, would be to create micro-organisms, fitted with artificial chromosomes, which could convert sunlight into fuels that could be burnt in aircraft. These would not involve burning fossil carbon and would be the perfect green fuel. It is still a far-off prospect but realistic, s

30、ay biologists.（分数：10.00）(1).The fact that passengers passing British airports will double or even triple indicates that_.（分数：2.00）A.the British aviation industry is growing very rapidlyB.more and more British people tend to choose flying when travelingC.the aviation industry develops much faster tha

31、n other industries in developed countriesD.the aviation industry will cause more pollutants when compared with other industries(2).The experts in aviation industry disapproved the claim by the CCR because_.（分数：2.00）A.the calculation of aviation industrys carbon emission is based on prediction instea

32、d of factsB.the figure calculated is much more than the experts in aviation industry expectedC.airlines are also making great efforts to reduce their oil consumption and carbon emissionsD.the experts didnt agree with the way of their calculation of the carbon emissions by planes(3).People are using

33、more composites in making aircrafts mainly because_.（分数：2.00）A.composites themselves are very light, strong and as flexible as metalB.composites can reduce the plane weight leading to less fuel consumption and carbon emissionsC.composites can cause less carbon emissions in the process of lyingD.comp

34、osites are less expensive than metal(4).In order to reduce carbon emissions, airlines can_.（分数：2.00）A.change air traffic routes to make it straight and shorter for a flightB.use lighter materials like composites in building a planeC.reduce the number of engines on a plane to cut weightD.produce envi

35、ronment-friendly fuels(5).According to the text, what can we learn about aviation fuels?（分数：2.00）A.Biofuels can be used as replacement for vehicles as well as planes.B.Neither biofuels nor coals can be used for planes.C.The idea of green fuel is to change solar energy into fuels.D.The idea of green-

36、fuel, which is only an illusion, is challenged and doubted by scientists.This issue of Science contains announcements for more than 100 different Gorgon Research Conferences, on topics that range from atomic physics to developmental biology. The brainchild (某人的主意) of Neil Gordon of Johns Hopkins Uni

37、versity, these week-long meetings are designed to promote intimate, informal discussions of frontier science. Often confined to fewer than 125 attendees, they have traditionally been held in remote places with minimal distractions. Beginning in the early 1960s, I attended the summer Nucleic Acids Go

38、rdon Conference in rural New Hampshire, sharing austere (简朴的) dorm facilities in a private boys school with randomly assigned roommates. As a beginning scientist, I found the question period after each talk especially fascinating, providing valuable insights into the personalities and ways of thinki

39、ng of many senior scientists whom I had not encountered previously. Back then, there were no cellphones and no Internet, and all of the speakers seemed to stay for the entire week. During the long, session-free afternoons, graduate students mingled freely with professors. Many lifelong friendships w

40、ere begun, and as Gordon intended new scientific collaborations began. Leap forward to today, and every scientist can gain immediate access to a vast store of scientific thought and to millions of other scientists via the Internet. Why, nevertheless, do in-person scientific meetings remain so valuab

41、le for a life in science? Part of the answer is that science works best when there is a deep mutual trust and understanding between the collaborators, which is hard to develop from a distance. But most important is the critical role that face-to-face scientific meetings play in stimulating a random

42、collision of ideas and approaches. The best science occurs when someone combines the knowledge gained by other scientists in non-obvious ways to create a new understanding of how the world works. A successful scientist needs to deeply believe, whatever the problem being tackled, that there is always

43、 a better way to approach that problem than the path currently being taken. The scientist is then constantly on the alert for new paths to take in his or her work, which is essential for making breakthroughs. Thus, as much as possible, scientific meetings should be designed to expose the attendees t

44、o ways of thinking and techniques that are different from the ones that they already know.（分数：10.00）(1).Assembled at Gordon Research Conference are those who_.（分数：2.00）A.are physicists and biologistsB.just start doing their sciencesC.stay in the forefront of scienceD.are accomplished senior scientis

46、on scientific conference_.（分数：2.00）A.does not change with timesB.can be explored online exclusivelyC.lies in exchanging the advances in life scienceD.is questioned in establishing a vast store of ideas(4).The author believes that the face-to-face scientific conferences can help the attendees better_

48、tific collaborations.B.How to make scientific breakthroughs.C.How to design scientific meetings.D.How to think like a genius.Back in 1896, the Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius realized that by burning coal we were adding carbon dioxide to the air, and that this would warm the Earth. But he mentioned the issue only in passing (顺便地) , for his calculations suggested it would not become a problem for thousands of years. Others thought that the oceans would soak up any extra CO 2 , so there was nothing much to worry about. That this latter argument has persisted to
