42、ssions. Like other high, thin clouds, contrails reflect sunlight back into space and cool the planet. However, they also trap energy in the atmosphere and increase the warming effect.

44、balanced and that is why the contribution of night-flight is so large. Most commercial airline traffic occurs during daylight hours.

48、收热量来增加温室效应的，故选C。2.B 【解析】词义猜测题。根据第三段最后两句介绍了飞机凝迹的两大作用：一是将阳光反射回太空、使地球降温，二是将能量困在大气层、加剧温室效应，再根据they所在的句子However, they also trap energy in the atmosphere and increase the warming effect. （然而，它们也会在大气中捕获能量，并增加温室效应。）可知they指代的是“飞机凝迹”，故选B。3.C 【解析】推理判断题。通读第四段内容可知，飞机凝迹受温室效应的控制，降温效果只发生在太阳升起的白天，夜间的温室效应不再平衡，这就是夜间飞行留下的尾迹变暖效应要大得多的原因，Stuber是通过解释为什么它们会在晚上产生很大热量的原因来解释飞机凝迹的，故选C. 4.D 【解析】主旨大意题。通读全文以及根据第一段的第一句Moving flight times from night to day could reduce air travels contributions to global warming（将飞行时间从晚上改为白天可能会减少空中旅行对全球变暖的影响。）本文主要内容是：将飞机飞行时间从晚上改
