阅读理解

    Earth's atmosphere (大气) is made of the layers of air that is around Earth. Thanks to the O2 found in the atmosphere, humans and other animals can breathe.

    The atmosphere has four layers. The closest layer to Earth is the troposphere. The troposphere reaches from Earth to about 8 to 15 kilometers above sea level (平面).

    It includes most of the air and O2 in the atmosphere, so all life on Earth lives here. The closer to the ground, the warmer the air is. Higher up in the troposphere, the air becomes much colder.

    The second layer of the atmosphere is the stratosphere. The stratosphere reaches to around 50 kilometers above Earth. Near the top of the stratosphere is the ozone layer (臭氧层). The ozone layer helps protect life on Earth from the sun's UV radiation. Unluckily, there are holes in several parts of the ozone layer. This could cause serious problems for life on Earth.

    The third layer of the atmosphere is the mesosphere. It reaches up to around 80 kilometers above Earth. The mesosphere has the coldest temperature in the atmosphere. It can be as cold as -100℃ there.

    The fourth layer is called the thermosphere. It reaches up to around 600 kilometers above Earth. This is where outer space begins. The international space station runs around the planet from this layer. The temperature here is very high. It gets up to 1, 200℃.

(1)、The troposphere goes up to around ____________ above the Earth.
A、8-15 kilometers B、50 kilometers C、80 kilometers D、600 kilometers

A、 B、 C、 D、
(5)、________________ may be the best title of the passage.

 阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。

A marathon is a long running race of 42.195kilometres. The first Olympic Marathon was held in Athens. Now, many cities host their own marathons every year. Some of the well-known marathons around the world are the New York City Marathon, the Boston Marathon and the Tokyo Marathon. Among them, the Boston Marathon is the oldest yearly Marathon in the world. As time goes by, the sport has become more than just a race.

Themes(主题) make marathons fun and meaning. Runners run for helping sick kids, memorizing important events, or just enjoying nature. A famous marathon in Gisborne, New Zealand, is known for being the first city in the world to welcome the sunlight every day. Runners can greet the sunrise as they run along the golden sandy beaches.

Marathon routes(线路) let people know more about this old sport. Some routes are very challenging for runners. Runners of all skill levels can sweat(流汗) freely and push their limits(极限). Some routes are well planned for runners to explore the many sides of a city. For example, the route of the Great Wall Marathon takes the runners along the great wonder of the world. In fact, it's also a chance to get to know Beijing, its people and local culture.

A marathon is quite a journey for runners to enjoy the run, challenge themselves and experience the culture. There is so much more behind the race for us to explore.
