36.C。推理題。題干:太陽風的形成是因為__________。由關鍵詞solar wind可找到第一段的第二、三句“Energy flows away from the Sun toward the Earth in a stream of electrified particles that move at speeds around a million miles per hour.These particles are called plasma,and the stream of plasma coming from the Sun is called the solar wind.”,即“能源從太陽向地球以帶電粒子流的形式流逝,以大約每小時一百萬英里的速度移動。這些粒子被稱為等離子,來自太陽的等離子流叫作太陽風。”由此可知太陽風與能量流有關,故選C。
37.B。推理題。題干:當太陽風到達地球的時候會發生什么?根據第二段的第三句“The charged particles become trapped in magnetic belts around the Earth.”可知,帶電粒子變成被困在地球周圍的磁帶。由此可知B正確。
38.A。推理題。題干:當__________時,就形成了北極光。根據第三段的最后一句話“As the electrons fall into the Earth,they collide with gas molecules in the atmosphere,creating flashes oflight in the sky.”可知,由于電子粒落到地球,它們與大氣中的氣體分子發生碰撞,產生的光線在天空中閃爍。根據第四段所述的“Each atmospheric gas glows a different color.Oxygen and nitrogen glows red and green and nitrogen glows violet-purple.As these various colors glow and dance in the night sky,they create the Northern Lights and the Southern Lights.”可知,每種大氣氣體發光的顏色不同,氧氣和氮氣發出的光不同,這些不同顏色的光芒,構成了夜空中的北極光。綜上所述,可知A正確。
39.A。細節題。題干:下列有關北極光的敘述,哪項是正確的?根據倒數第二段的第二句 “The movement of the aurora across the sky is usually slow enough to easily follow with your eyes but they can also pulsate(跳動),flicker(閃爍),or even move like waves.”可知,通常足夠慢的極光劃過天空的運動很容易被眼睛看到。由此可知A正確。.
40.D。態度題。題干:作者對北極光持什么態度?根據文章的最后兩句話“We hope you are able to travel to far-north places like the Arctic Circle and see the Northem Lights at least once during your lifetime.We know you will never forget it!”可知,作者建議讀者可以到北極圈以北的地方看到北極光,你將永遠不會忘記。
