22、ou should make the correct choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.For years, astronomers struggled to calculate the age of the universe. Estimates ranged from 10 to 20 billion years old, a frustratingly large spread. But that was before the
23、 launch of the Hubble Space Telescope. named after the astronomer whose discovery 70 years ago began the quest to learn the universe s age.Edwin Hubble found that the galaxies (星系) within the universe are speeding away from each other at a rate proportional to their distance. That expansion ratethe
24、Hubble constant (常数)is the key to calculating the age and size of the universe. But pinning down the constant requires precise measurements of the distances to far-flung galaxies.In May, a team, led by Wendy Freeman of the Carnegie Institution of Washington, D. C. , announced the result of eight yea
25、rs of Hubble measurements: The universe is expanding at a rate of 21 kilometers per million light-years. That translates to an age of approximately 12 billion years for the universe, similar to the value for the oldest stars.“After all these years,“ says Freeman, “we are finally entering an era of p

32、ed 41 to 45.Surprisingly, there is a relationship between sea salt and the making of rain drops. Most of the water droplets that make up clouds are formed around small, solid particles. In order to fall as rain, the cloud droplets have to increase in size. Clouds from which rain does not fall have d
33、roplets that are fairly uniform in size. Clouds that produce rain have some droplets that are much larger than others.The production of rain depends on the presence of the large droplets that grow in size by coalscence (聚结). There is evidence to support the theory that a particle of sea salt serves
34、as the nucleus (核心) or center, around which the larger droplets form. Most of the sea salt probably enters the atmosphere from, bubbles that form on the surface of the sea. When the bubbles break, a tiny, even microscopic, droplet of salt water is cast into the air. Once in the atmosphere, the micro
35、scopic piece of salt collects water vapor from the air. The water vapor then condenses on the particle of salt. The moisture absorbed by the salt particles dissolves the salt, thus leaving only a slightly salty cloud droplet.Cloud droplet, formed from condensation of salt particles of dust particles
36、. The reason is that salt particles are usually larger than dust particles. Their larger size is instrumental(有作用的) in making the single rain droplet grow by coalescence with smaller droplets. Since low level clouds dont rise high enough to produce ice crystals as a source of condensation, it most l
37、ikely is the salt particles that cause them to become rain clouds.（分数：5.00）(1).Rain clouds are characterized primarily by _. A. dust particles B. droplets that are uniform in size C. droplets that are large and small D. bubbles（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The passage implies that, in order for rain to fall,
