4．By the end of the century，if not sooner，the world's oceans will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate，according to a new study．
At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny marine microorganisms （海洋微生物） called phytoplankton．Because of the way light reflects off the organisms，these phytoplankton create colourful patterns at the ocean surface．Ocean colour varies from green to blue，depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton．Climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas，while reducing it in other spots，leading to changes in the ocean's appearance．
Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface，where they pull carbon dioxide （二氧化碳） into the ocean while giving off oxygen．When these organisms die，they bury carbon in the deep ocean，an important process that helps to regulate the global climate．But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the ocean's warming trend．Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth，since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow，but also nutrients．
Stephanie Dutkiewicz，a scientist in MIT's Center for Global Change Science，built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century．In a world that warms up by 3℃ ，it found that multiple changes to the colour of the oceans would occur．The model projects that currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer．But in some waters，such as those of the Arctic，a warming will make conditions riper for phytoplankton，and these areas will turn greener． "Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changing，" she said， "but the type of phytoplankton is changing．"
And why does that matter？Phytoplankton are the base of the food web． "If certain kinds begin to disappear from the ocean，" Dutkicwicz said， "it will change the type of fish that will be able to survive．" Those kinds of changes could affect the food chain．
Whatever colour changes the ocean experiences in the coming decades will probably be too gradual and unnoticeable，but they could mean significant changes． "It'll be a while before we can statistically show that the changes are happening because of climate change，" Dutkiewicz said， "but the change in the colour of the ocean will be one of the early warning signals that we really have changed our planet．"
（1）What are the first two paragraphs mainly about？
A．The various patterns at the ocean surface．
B．The cause of the changes in ocean colour．
C．The way light reflects off marine organisms．
D．The efforts to fuel the growth of phytoplankton．
（2）What does the underlined word "vulnerable" in Paragraph 3 probably mean？
A．Sensitive．
B．Beneficial．
C．Significant．
D．Unnoticeable．
（3）What can we learn from the passage？
A．Phytoplankton play a declining role in the marine ecosystem．
B．Dutkiewicz's model aims to project phytoplankton changes．
C．Phytoplankton have been used to control global climate．
D．Oceans with more phytoplankton may appear greener．
（4）What is the main purpose of the passage？
A．To assess the consequences of ocean colour changes．
B．To analyse the composition of the ocean food chain．
C．To explain the effects of climate change on oceans．
D．To introduce a new method to study phytoplankton．組卷：6引用：1難度：0.1

5．Everyone has a few ways to beat the blues（悲傷的情緒）．However，some of the most popular ways don't actually work very well．So be careful if you try any of the following：
Giving yourself a "treat （款待）"
Often，the things we choose as 'treats" aren't good for us． （1）So when you find yourself thinking "I'll feel better after I have some ice cream…a cigarette…"，ask yourself-will it really make you feel better？It might make you feel worse．
Indulging（放縱）yourself．
When you are feeling down，you might think， "I'll allow myself to give up my run today；I need a break．" In fact，keeping up a habit will improve your sense of self-control． （2）
Turning off your phone．
（3）．But studies show that people get happiness from connecting with other people．You'll feel better to talk with your friends or family．
（4）
Many people think that expressing anger is healthy．Not so．Studies show that expression of anger often ends in worrying silence．I've certainly found this to be true．Ifs better to stay calm．
Having a drink．
（5）．Even if you don't have a drinking problem ，alcohol（酒）can hardly make you happy．Don't believe that a drink will help you feel more comfortable．
A．Expressing your bad feelings．
B．Alcohol affects people differently．
C．Giving up smoking can bring you more happiness．
D．You can find more useful ways to beat the blues．
E．So not giving up might do more to make you happy．
F．You may want to be alone when you're feeling unhappy．
G．The pleasure lasts a minute，but then bad feelings just come．組卷：0引用：1難度：0.5
