问题 单项选择题

阅读下面短文,回答下 * * 道题:
大爆炸理论的最直接的证据来自于对遥远星系光线特征的研究。在20世纪20年代,美国天文学家埃德温·哈勃测量了18颗恒星(它们距地球的距离是已知的)发来的光,发现它们全部都存在着红移。哈勃得出结论,这些恒星一定相对于我们(观测者)在后退。因为根据多普勒效应,恒星一边后退一边发光而且光速(相对于观测者)是不变的话,我们收到光的波长就会长于原来的值。就如远去时的声音将变向低音,光将偏向红光。哈勃认为,遥远星系的光波变长(红化)是由于宇宙正在膨胀的结果。在一个正在膨胀着的宇宙中的任何一点来观测,其周围的任何星系都是离它退行的,离它越远的星系退行速度越高。
如果宇宙正在膨胀,它在过去必定比较小(这也是蕴涵在膨胀观念中的逻辑结论)。如果能倒放这部“宇宙影片”,我们会发现,所有的星系在遥远的过去是聚合在一起的。并且根据现在的膨胀速度,我们还可以推断这种聚合状态必定出现在好几十亿年前。科学家们现在将之定在150亿年左右。
对大爆炸宇宙学有力支持的第二个观测证据出现在1965年。两位美国科学家彭齐亚斯和威尔逊偶然地检测到弥漫在全天空的微波背景辐射。这个发现被称为“宇宙微波背景辐射”。对它的测量表明,它的有效温度大约比绝对零度(约等于-273℃)高3度,可写为3K。只能将微波背景辐射解释为这是宇宙原初阶段(大爆炸阶段)的直接遗迹,把它看作为宇宙诞生时灼热火焰的余辉,是从大爆炸散落的残余辐射由于宇宙膨胀而冷却所具有的。实际上最早提出宇宙微波背景辐射假说的科学家就意识到,如果宇宙起始于遥远过去的某种既热且密的状态,那就应当留下某种从这个爆发式开端洒落的辐射。

根据本文提供的信息,以下说法正确的一项是______。

A.科学家们推测,大约150亿年前发生了宇宙大爆炸,宇宙由此诞生

B.宇宙原初阶段处在既热且密的状态,不断向四周洒落着灼热的辐射

C.微波背景辐射以相同的强度射向地球,可以推知宇宙大爆炸的规模

D.由于宇宙膨胀,地球当然也随之膨胀,太阳系、银河系也随之膨胀

答案

参考答案:A

解析: 根据本文提供的信息,能够确定大约150亿年前发生了宇宙大爆炸,宇宙由此诞生。

Britain and Ireland
  The British Isles is made up of two large islands: One is called Ireland and the other __16  . Britain, or Great Britain, is the larger of these two islands, and it is17  into three parts: Scotland, Wales and England.
  The United Kingdom is that 18  of the British Isles ruled over by the Queen. It is made up of Scotland, Wales and England, that is, the 19  of Britain, and also about one sixth of Ireland, the Northern part. The  20  of Ireland is self-governing. The 21  name of the United Kingdom is  22  “The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”.
 23 is larger and richer than Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and has the largest  24   of the United Kingdom, so people often use the 25 “England” and “English” when they  26  “Britain” and “British”. This sometimes makes the Scots and the Welsh a little 27 . The Scots in particular are very  28 of their separate nationality. The Welsh too do not regard   29  as English, and have a culture and even a   30 of their own.
  Ireland became part of the United Kingdom in 1801, but for forty years the “Irish  31  ” was the greatest headache of the United Kingdom.  32 , Ireland is divided into two: Northern Ireland still  33 to the United Kingdom, and in 1922 the rest of Ireland   34  to found an Irish Free State, later called Eire and now the Republic of Ireland.
  The Republic of Ireland does not regard itself as part of Britain, and is not now even a supporter of the Commonwealth of Nations (英联邦). Unlike the major Commonwealth countries it did not lift a finger to   35 British in the Second World War and now wants the whole of Ireland to be a republic.
