Air is a gas that expands (膨胀) when heated, gets lighter, and moves upward. When air is
cooled, it gets heavier, sinks close to the earth's surface, and flows like water in a great river. As warm air rises, cold air rashes to take its place. Thus winds originate (起源). Tile winds that blow high above us are caused by the warmer air running away from colder air. The wind we feel near the earth's surface is the heavy colder air trying hard to catch the warmer air. Changes in temperature cause the air to move. And of course there are many changes, so air movements are taking place practically all the time.
The first paragraph mainly tells us______.
A.why we don't feel air
B.why atmosphere is important to us
C.why there is air surrounding us
D.why there is air pressure
听力原文: In a way, all of us are on a spaceship, the planet Earth. We move around the sun at 18 miles per second and never stop. On our spaceship we have five billion people and a limited supply of air, water, and land. These supplies have to be used carefully because we can't buy new air, water, or land from anywhere else.
The environment on our planet is a closed system Nothing new is ever added. Nature recycles its resources. Water, for example, evaporates and rises as visible drops to form. clouds. This same water returns to the earth as rain or snow. The rain that falls today is actually the same water that fell on the land 70 million years ago.
Today, the Earth is in trouble. Factories pour dirty water into our rivers. Many fish die and the water become unhealthy for people to drink. Cars and factories put poisons into the air and cause plants, animals and people to get sick. People throw bottles and paper out of their car windows, and the roadside becomes covered with all sorts of wastes. Over the years, people have changed the environment, and we have pollution.
To continue to survive, we must learn how to use the Earth's resources wisely. We have to change our habits and stop dumping such enormous amounts of industrial waste into the water and air. We must cooperate with nature and learn better ways to use, not to abuse, our environment.

A.Because both have a limited supply of air, water, and other resources.
B.Because the Earth moves around the sun as fast as a spaceship.
C.Because we can travel to outer space.
D.Because the Earth never stops moving.

Here we are! Where we get off is where we get on. Return to the bus in Fifty minutes. Thank you!
Who do you think is speaking?
A.A bus driver.
B.A tourist guide.
C.A visitor.
A.The present population on earth is fourteen billion.
B.Water is recycled every seventy million years.
C.The planet earth travels around the sun at 18 miles per second.
D.The earth is compared to a spaceship because they both travel around the sun.
The sun is one of the stars.Some planets are balls of rock and some are balls of gas.We live on the planet earth.The earth spins around once every day to give us day and night.The earth goes around the sun once every year to give us different seasons.
There are eight planets moving around the sun.We call the family of the sun and its planets the solar system.Mercury is the nearest to the sun, so it is very hot.It is the smallest planet.Venus is very bright and hot.It is the nearest to the earth.Mars is covered with orange-red desi and rocks, so it looks like a red star in the sky.It has seasons like the earth.Jupiter has more than 16 moons (卫星)and it is the biggest and heaviest planet.Saturn has more than 22 moons.The other planets, such as Uranus and Neptune, are all very far from the sun and very cold.We need a telescope (望远镜) to see them.

Although it may sound funny to call scientists weather-watchers, there's【B3】funny about what they do. Specifically, weather-watchers are meteorologists(气象学者)【B4】work for the United States Weather Bureau. They study the ocean of【B5】that surrounds the earth and, with the information they get, predict our weather.
The atmosphere【B6】in height from 300 to 700 miles above the earth and is divided into a series of layers or shells. The layer that is most interesting【B7】the meteorologist is the troposphere(对流层) or the layer closest to the earth.【B8】is in the troposphere that all our weather is formed.
【B9】causes our weather is really a very simple process. Endless streams of hot air push up from the earth. As they rise, they are【B10】by the freezing temperatures of the【B11】troposphere. Once it has become cold and heavy, the air【B12】back toward the earth, but it【B13】move down because of the rising hot air. In the meantime, planetary winds, which blow around the earth, or air currents keep both the cold air mass as well as the hot air mass in【B14】.
There are two additional factors that influence these moving air masses.【B15】is water vapor that the rising hot air soaks up like a sponge. The other is temperature Which, by cooling the hot air, forces it to【B16】out its water vapor in the form. of rain, snow, or sleet(雨夹雪).
These air masses【B17】push against each other with tremendous pressure. When a high-pressure mass of air succeeds【B18】pushing out a low-pressure air mass, we have clearing conditions and【B19】weather. When a low-pressure air mass forces out a high-pressure mass of air, stormy weather can be【B20】.

A.when
B.as
C.while
