2．Terribly hot weather．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 Earth's atmosphere．This CO2 is a greenhouse gas．That means it can trap heat in the air．As a result，our planet's 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 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 also will be to blame for about 2 out of every 5 extreme rains and snowfalls．"This is a considerable fraction of major weather events，"says climate scientist Peter Stott．
So far，the Earth has warmed about 0.85 degree Celsius since 1750．That's about when the Industrial Revolution got its start．That's also when fossil fuel use took off，spewing（噴出） lots of CO2 into the air．Overall，the new study shows that"relatively small rises in the global temperature 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．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 heavy 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"，F(xiàn)ischer says．"You can still get the biggest heat that you have over seen without any human changes．"

A．what damage global warming caused
B．how global warming came into being
C．where global warming is becoming serious
D．why fossil fuels have to be forbidden

A．it is reasonable for climate change to happen
B．there is no serious effect of global warming now
C．the influence of global warming is great
D．the extreme weather happens in small numbers
（3）In the future，the temperature may rise at least bydegrees Celsius．
（4）According to the passage，extreme weatherA．2.5 B．3 C．4 D．2 ．
A．will happen more often than before
B．happens once in every 1，000 days
C．strikes every region without differences
D．becomes a rare phenomenon across the planet
（5）What is the main idea of the passage？
A．Extreme weather is becoming common now．
B．The role of global warming in extreme weather．
C．The Earth has suffered from extreme weather．
D．Global warming makes the Earth hotter and hotter．組卷：3引用：1難度：0.7

6．A tornado is a rotating column of air from a thunderstorm to the ground．The most violent has winds of more than 400 kilometer per hour．Tornadoes can pick up cars，trains but even houses and put it down in the next street-or even in the next town．They can take the fur out the back of a cat and the feathers off a chicken．They can destroy houses，and leave the furniture inside exactly what it was．
On an average，there are 800 torma does in the US each year，cause about 80 deaths and 1，500 injuries．The worst tornado of all the times occur in 1925，affecting three US states．Since the time it ended，more than 700 people had killed and 2，700 had been injured．組卷：4引用：1難度：0.3
