People often think of the North Pole(北极) and the South Pole as similar frozen(冰冻的)wastelands. They are both places with very cold temperatures and few people live there. However, the North and South Poles are not much alike as people may imagine.
The North Pole has no land, only thick ice. Temperatures seldom go above 32°F, at which water turns into ice. Most of the time, it stays below zero. In winter temperatures are usually as low as-30°F.
Although conditions were very poor, people tried for many centuries to reach the North Pole. About 100 years ago, two men, Robert Peary and Mathew Henson, were able to get to this environment full of troubles and difficulties. They reached the North Pole in 1909. It was really a hard trip for them.
There are few things more dangerous than crossing the Arctic(北极圈) on foot. People who stayed there may face many problems: very cold temperatures, sudden storms, and even hunger. Most of the area is . Few people can live in such a difficult place.
People might think that with such low temperatures for most of the year, the ice would be thick and hard. However, this is not true in the Arctic. The movement of the ocean water under the ice may often cause many different changes on the surface. Sometimes the ice breaks into two opening lanes of water(水道) called “leads”. Anyone who falls into a lead can be frozen to death in a few minutes.

A. a book review
B. a science book
C. a school report
D. a computer magazine

A. Two men succeeded in getting to the North Pole.
B. Temperatures in the North Pole went above 32°F.
C. The environment in the North Pole suddenly became worse.
D. The North Pole changed into thick ice because of the temperatures.
( )28. What does the underlined word “uninhabited” probably mean in Chinese
A. 气候恶劣的 B. 充满危险的
C. 困难重重的 D. 无人居住的
( )29. The reason for the ice to break into two opening lanes of water is that ______.
A. the temperature suddenly drops
B. the water under the ice is frozen
C. the ocean water under the ice moves
D. the surface is covered with lots of ice

Before they talked about what had happened, they noticed a man in a yellow suit cross the road from the field. The boys thought he was a neighbor who often walked in the evening. “Mr Johnson, ” they asked, “did you see the UFO ” Suddenly the man turned to the boys, but it was not Mr Johnson. He looked more like a hawk (鹰) than a man. Then, before he could answer, the other creatures (生物), all in yellow suits joined him. Each one had large, dark, square holes.
The boys noticed another one—a woman, they believed. She was wearing a short dress and walking down the road, and at last the woman disappeared (消失) completely.

Dinosaurs (恐龙) once lived on the earth for a long time. They suddenly disappeared millions of years ago. What happened to them That’s still a mystery. People never stop searching for the answer.
Some US scientists say it is because there were not enough male (雄性的) dinosaurs. They got this idea after researching crocodiles (鳄鱼).
Mother crocodiles lay eggs and later baby crocodiles come out. The local temperature decides the sex (性别) of the baby crocodiles. When the eggs are at a temperature between 26℃ and 30℃, the babies are all girls; when the temperature is between 30℃ and 34℃, there are both boys and girls; when it is between 34℃ and 36℃, only boys are born.
Dinosaurs’ babies also came from eggs. So scientists have given us a new picture: millions of years ago, it suddenly became very cold. Almost all dinosaur babies were girls. There were fewer and fewer male dinosaurs. Mother dinosaurs could not give birth to more babies. Finally, these powerful animals disappeared.
