C The ocean covers 71%of the Earth's surface and takes in most of the sun's energy. This makes it the most important factor()in keeping our planet warm.In fact,just the top three metres of ocean water can hold as much heat as the Earth's whofe atmesphere().When this water gets warm enough,it turns into gas and goes into the air,raising the temperature and adding water vapour().This helps create rain and storms,which are then carried far and wide by trade winds()that travel around the Earth. But the ocean doesn't just store heat-it also heats and cools the air around it in different ways.When the air above the ocean is cooler than the seawater,the ocean passes heat to that air above.The warm air then becomes lighter and rises,and cooler air from nearby areas moves in to take its place.This movement of air is what we call wind.In some cases,this process can lead to much bigger storms.When ocean water reaches a temperature above 26.5C,the warm and wet air rises rapidly.Cooler air spins around it, and as the spinning grows faster,a powerful typboon is likely to form. AWater flows move in the ocean deeper than 300 metres.These water flows travel around the whole Earth in a cycle that takes about 1,000 years.They are important in keeping temperatures around the world balanced.Without them,some areas would experience very hot or very cold weather. Finally,the ocean also helps protect us from climate change.It takes in CO2 from the atmosphere,which slows down the warming of the Earth.In this way,the ocean is not only a place that creates storms and wind-it is also one of our most powerful protectors. 33.What can we learn about the top three metres of ocean water? A.It holds most water vapour in the air. B.It produces the world's wind and rain. C.It goes into the air and forms trade winds. D.It keeps nearly the same heat as Earth's atmosphere. 英语试卷第6页（共12页) 34.Which picture shows how a typhoon forms? A. B. wind worm soowator D 300m wstor nows around tho Eart worm wotor >26.5*C 35.Which sentence is the most suitable for The ocean also helps create trade winds across the Earth. B.The heat stored in the ocean does not always stay the same. C.Ocean water doesn't only change the weather near the water top. D.The ocean also slows down climate change by taking in CO2 gas. 36.What would happen if the ocean disappeared? A.The Earth's atmosphere would hold less CO2. B.There would be fewer storms but more trade winds. C.Some areas would have more balanced temperatures. D.The Earth would lose an important way to get protection.
