单选题 　　What's the author's attitude towards anniversaries?

A．Positive.
B．Negative.
C．Indifferent.
D．Fanatic.

参考答案B

解析: 本题考查作者的观点态度，应着眼于全文。文章开头就说周年纪念活动就像鸦片，目的只是为了赚钱；结尾又说只有时间才能决定艺术家的地位，伟大的艺术家经常是先被人遗忘，后来才流芳百世，之后周年纪念活动就变得可有可无了。可见作者对周年纪念活动持否定态度，故选B。

单选题　　When the end of the world comes, we'll know what to blame. Scientists have found compelling evidence thatthe Sun has a baby brother, a dark star whose eccentric orbit is responsible for periodically showering the Earthwith comets and meteorites.
　　The dark star--named Nemesis by astronomers--is thought to be a brown dwarf that spins round the Sun inan orbit so large that it is measured in light years, the distance light travels in a year, equivalent to about 6,000billion miles.
　　The research suggests that, every 26m years, the star's eccentric orbit brings it within one light year of the solarsystem. There it causes havoc in the Oort Cloud, a huge region surrounding the solar system that contains billionsof bits of cosmic rubble left over from the formation of planets.
　　Of the millions of rocks it throws out of orbit at each visit, some hurtle earthwards--and have several times nearly wiped out life on Earth.
　　Astronomers have long wondered if the Sun has a smaller partner. Recently, two independent groups of
　　researchers have found evidence of one.
　　One group, led by John Matese, professor of physics at the University of Louisianaat Lafayette, confirms thenotion that it is most likely to be a brown dwarf, a star that never accumulated enough mass to ignite and which hassimply sat in space smoldering for billions of years.
　　Matese studied 82 comets from the Oort Cloud and found common elements in the shape of their orbits thatcould only be explained if they had been influenced by the gravitational pull of an object severn1 times the size ofJupiter and existing about 25,000 times farther from the Sun than the Earth.
　　Matese said: "A companion to the Sun orbiting at these distances would have little effect on the planets. But itwould play a big role in the way comets 'made their way, from their birth places in the planetary disc out to the: ~,
　　Oort Cloud and in how they can return to the inner solar system."
　　Further research was published by Richard Muller, professor of physics at the University of California,
　　Berkeley, following analyses of moon rock samples brought back to Earth by Apollo 14.
　　The absence of a protective atmosphere means the moon has been subjected to intense bombardment in its 4.5 billion-year existence.
　　Muller's breakthrough was to find a way to date how long ago any particle was melted---meaning he could
　　build up a picture of whether the moon gets a constant barrage or suffers spells of intensebombardment.
　　He said: "The evidence clearly shows that the moon has gone through spells of relatively fiequent impacts andothers of reduced intensity. I believe it is likely that this is because the Oort Cloud is being disturbed by a massivebody that is throwing comets out of stable orbits, a small fraction of which could reach the Earth."
　　Muller and others believe that the dark star probably takes about 26m years to complete an orbit around the stm.
　　Other scientists have already noted that mass extinctions of life on Earth seem to occur in a pattem with gaps equivalent to multiples of 26m, suggesting some regular event is causing the comets to come Earth's way.
　　The best-known such event was the one that wiped out the dinosaurs 65m years ago, but that was not the worst; the planet has suffered several such large mass extinctions.
　　Astronomers have found the first Earth-sized planet orbiting another star. The discovery raises the chances of finding planets that could support life as we know it.
