Which column of a magazine i: this passage most probably taken from?A.Science.B.Travel.C.Health.D.Life.CA 2020 study in the journal Science concluded that marine heat waves have increased more than 20-fold as a result of climate warming. The authors found that
32、in the first decade after satellites began recording ocean temperatures (i. e. 、 after 1981),there were 27 large marine heat waves, with an average duration of 32 days and an average peak temperature anomaly of 8.5F; in the 2010s,there were 172, which lasted 48 days on average with an average peak t
33、emperature almost 10F above normal.Much remains unclear about marine heat waves. For example, explains Nicholas Bond, research scientist at the University of Washington and Washingtons state climatologist, there is the question of why so many persist for weeks or months. There must be something else
34、 going on that helps maintain them, he says. He notes that one explanation is that as the ocean surface warms, it radiates heat into the atmosphere that prevents cloud cover from forming, exposit seawater to increased sunlight and further warming.However, enough is known about marine heat waves for
35、scientists to be gravely concerned about their potential impacts. Of special note is the fact that those impacts can last long after the heat waves have disappeared. After three years of the Blob the waters of the northeastern Pacific began to cool in 2016; but years later, scientists are still dete
36、rmining the extent to which the regions ecosystem is likely to return fully to its pre-Blob status. Similarly, notes Scannell, who is a data scientist with Jupiter Intelligence, Inc., following the 2010-11 Western Australia event, lots of kelp (巨藻) forests died, and it takes literally decades for th
37、ose ecosystems to bounce back*.Eric Oliver, a scientist from Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia, Canada, expressed his own opinion about the potential impact of the heat waves in tropical waters, “I think thafs really a tough issue, he says. Life in the tropics, he notes, is adapted to quite a narr
38、ow range of temperatures. So thafs where things can get really messy. We can have complete shifts in tropical systems. nWhat can we infer from the figures listed in para. 1 ?A. The problem of marine heat waves is becoming worse.B.The satellites enable scientists to record ocean temperature precisely
39、.C.Climate change is the main cause of the marine heat waves.D.Marine heat waves have been found by scientists for about 30 years.28. What does the 2nd paragraph mainly talk about?A. Various factors that lead to marine heat waves.B. The possible impacts of a warm ocean surface.C. The possible reason
40、 why marine heat waves last long.D. Scientists* efforts in exploring the causes of heat waves.29. What do we know about the impact of the marine heat waves?A. The impact will disappear shortly after the sea water cools.B. It takes long before the ecosystem makes a complete recovery.C. Scientists hav
41、e known enough to restore the impact.D.The northeastern Pacific and Western Australia are the worst cases.30. What is Eric Olivers attitude towards the heat waves in tropic waters?A.Concerned.B.Indifferent.C.Doubtful.D.Optimistic.DPeoples ability to remember fades with age-but one day, researchers m
42、ight be able to use a simple, drug-free method to buck this trend.In a study published on 22 August in Nature Neuroscience, Robert Reinhart, a cognitive neuroscientist at Boston University in Massachusetts, and his colleagues demonstrate that zapping （刺J激） the brains of adults aged over 65 with weak
43、 electrical currents repeatedly over several days led to memory improvements that persisted for up to a month.Using a non-invasive method of stimulating the brain known as transcranial alternating current stimulation （tACS）, which delivers electrical currents through electrodes on the surface of the
44、 scalp, Reinharts team conducted a series of experiments on 150 people aged between 65 and 88. Participants carried out a memory task in which they were asked to recall lists of 20 words that were read aloud by an experimenter. The participants underwent tACS for the entire duration of the task, whi
45、ch took 20 minutes.After four continuous days of this protocol, participants who received high-frequency stimulation of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex （背夕卜侧前额叶皮质）had an improved ability to remember words from the beginning of the lists, a task that depends on long-term memory. Low-frequency zaps
46、 to the inferior parietal lobe （顶下小叶） enhanced participants recall of items later in the lists, which involves working1 memory-the memory that allows the brain to store information temporarily. Participants memory performance improved over the four days-and the gains persisted even a month later. Th
47、ose who had the lowest levels of general cognitive function before the study experienced the largest memory improvements.nI was both impressed and surprised by this, by this paper, says Simon Hanslmayr, a cognitive neuroscientist at the University of Glasgow, UK. He notes that along with other scien
48、tists, he has been skeptical about whether tACS can lead to meaningful changes in cognition. One issue has been that tACS devices generate electrical currents much weaker than those created by other methods of stimulating the brain, so it hasnt always been clear whether they can transmit enough electricity to the brain to modify its function. However, the authors of this study convincingly showed that their protocol was li
