New ice core samples taken from the
centre of the Greenland ice-sheet have given a detailed record of the last
"interglacial(间冰期)" which ran from about 135,000 to 115,000 years ago. The
cores, taken from a depth of 2,780 to 2,870 metres, show that during this period
the climate oscillated(摆动) between three states instead of remaining in one, as
in the whole of recorded human history. The middle state was like our own, but
the others were either much colder or warmer. Worse, it seems
that the climate flipped from one Condition to another very rapidly. "It
apparently took very little time, perhaps less than a decade or two, to shift
between the states," Dr. J. C. W. White of the Institute of Arctic and Alpine
Research at the University of Colorado wrote earlier this year in the scientific
journal, Nature: "We humans have A. The climate in recorded human history has generally remained stable. B. The climate from about 135,000 to 115,000 years ago was in a extremely cold state. C. The human race has been lucky to have enjoyed the most favorable period of climate for them to build a socio-economic system. D. The evidences scientists collected from the ice cores suggest that a civilization can not have arisen in the period from about 135,000 to 115,000.

[单项选择] Passage Two
New Year’s Eve requires the ultimate
party outfit. But what if your holiday spending has burned holes in your
pockets The answer might be to rent a little luxury.

for those not afraid to shop around, it has become an option for dressing up
on a budget. For the price of rentals (£150, or $260, for a
four-day period) , the only things available in most department stores are
dresses that look as if they are late for the party." Working women have
sophisticated tastes, but buying an evening dress is a very expensive
