Task 2 Directions: This task is the sam

26、e as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. 41 If the population of the earth goes on increasing at its present rate, there will eventually not be enough resources left to maintain life on the planet. By the middle of the 21st century, if present trends continue

27、, we will have used up all the oil that drives our cars. Even though scientists develop new ways of feeding the human race, the crowded conditions on earth will make it necessary for us to look for open space somewhere else. But none of the other planets in our solar sys- tem are capable of supporti

28、ng 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 earths resources are completely exhausted it will be possible to change the atmosphere of Venus. The difficulty is that Venus is

29、much hotter than the earth and there is only a tiny amount of water there. Sagan suggests that algae(藻类 ) organisms(生物，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, t

30、he algae will be placed in small rockets. Space- ship 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(二氧化碳 ) into oxygen and carbon. When the algae have done their work, the atmosphere will become cooler, but befor

31、e 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 earth will be reproduced on Venus. 41 If the population of the earth goes on increas

32、ing at its present rate, when will we use up all the oil that drives our cars? （ A） By the end of the twenty-second century. （ B） By the end of the twenty-first century. （ C） By the middle of the twenty-first century. （ D） By the middle of file twenty-second century. 42 In the long run, the most ins

33、oluble problem caused by population growth on earth will proba- bly be the lack of _. （ A） food （ B） space （ C） oil （ D） resources 43 According to the Sagans opinion, which of the following statements is NOT true? （ A） In a fairly short time, the algae will break down the carbon dioxide on Venus int

34、o oxygen and carbon. （ B） The atmosphere of Venus can be changed into the same one as earth. （ C） Algae organism can live in extremely hot or cold atmospheres and at the same time pro- duce oxygen. （ D） As soon as the algae have done their work, the atmosphere of Venus is suitable for people to live

35、. 44 The key for algae can change the atmosphere of Venus is that _. （ A） algae will not pollute the atmosphere （ B） algae can be placed in small rockets （ C） algae can break down the carbon dioxide (二氧 化碳 ) into oxygen and carbon （ D） algae can live in extremely hot or cold atmospheres 45 What can
