C．黄河、黄海
D．海河、黄海
天津市：简称津，中央直辖市．地处海河五大支流汇合处，东南临渤海湾，东北和西南与河北省为邻．西北与北京市相邻．
是一沿海开放城市，又是我国重要的港口城市．天津港是北京和华北地区海上交通的门户，由塘沽港、塘沽新港和市区的天津海河港组成，有“河海码头”之称．
其中塘沽新港建有大型的集装箱码头，港区还兴建了保税区．京沪、京沈等铁路干线，京津塘高速公路等都经过天津，使天津成为海陆交通的重要枢纽．
故选：B．
Passage Four
| Global climate change, often seen as a process stretching over thousands of years, could in fact occur abruptly and unexpectedly-quickly pushing up temperatures by as much as 18 degrees Fahrenheit and wreaking havoc(大破坏，浩劫) on human society, scientists warned on Wednesday. "Climate change is not always smooth. Sometimes it is abrupt," said Richard Alley, a climate expert at Pennsylvania State University and lead author of a new National Academy of Sciences report on the threat of rapid climatic shifts. "If you have a very large, abrupt change, a lot of people and a lot of ecosystems are going to notice," he said．"The bigger and faster it is, the harder it will be to deal with." The new National Academy of Sciences report, released this week, warns that gradual global warming coupled with other human impacts on the environment could "trip the switch" for sudden climate change. At the American Geophysical Union meeting on Wednesday, Alley and other environmental scientists said the geological evidence indicated that such rapid climate shifts had occurred frequently in the past—moving temperatures drastically in the space of just a few decades. "This can happen in less than a human generation, and then it will persist for thousands of years," said David Battisti, an atmospheric scientist at the University of Washington. The most immediate dangers posed by abrupt climate change range are devastating droughts and floods which could seriously affect both water supply and agriculture across vast stretches of the planet. Longer term impacts could include changes in the basic systems which determine regional global temperatures. Scientists believe that the Gulf Stream, a current (水流) of warm Atlantic water which now keeps much of Northern Europe temperate, could theoretically reverse direction if enough cool fresh water runs into the north Atlantic from melting ice, a change that would quickly impact European weather. |
