A huge smile 44 across his face and this made me feel very _45_. I felt I couldn’t be happier 46 myself, but then he said, “Wow, this is my son’s lucky day!”

第三部分：阅读理解(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并标在答题卷的相应位置。用答题卡的考生，先选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

There is a definite possibility that the climate of the world may be changing. Some scientists imagine that this could even mean the beginning of another ice age. The effects of such a change in climate on the human population of the world would be amazing.

Recent research suggests that the general warming trend of the past hundred years or so may be coming to an end. During the past ten years, meteorologists(气象学家）tell us the average temperature of the earth has dropped about one degree Fahrenheit. This does not seem like much, but it could have effects on wind and rain patterns which influence the overall weather picture. If these patterns change a lot, it could mean that certain regions of the world may continue to have long droughts(干旱)while others will possibly suffer from widespread flooding.

What regulates the climate is not exactly known. Meteorologists believe that clouds may be an important factor in regulating the amount of solar（太阳的）heat held by the earth, which in turn determines the temperature of the planet. Another possibility is that man’s industrial and agricultural methods may be affecting the natural weather patterns. Howeve
