" Directions: The passage is followed by questions based on its content. After reading the passage,
choose the best answer to each question.Answer all questions following the passage on the basis of
what is stated or implied in the passage.
The molecules of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere affect the heat balance of the Earth by
acting as a one-way screen. Although these molecules allow radiation at visible wavelengths, where
most of the energy of sunlight is concentrated, to pass through, they absorb some of the longer-
wavelength, infrared emissions radiated from the Earth's surface, radiation that would otherwise be
transmitted back-into space. For the Earth to maintain a constant average temperature, such
emissions from the planet must balance incoming solar radiation. If there were no carbon dioxide in
the atmosphere, heat would escape from the Earth much more easily. The surface temperature would
be so much lower that the oceans might be a solid mass of ice.
Today, however, the potential problem is too much carbon dioxide. The burning of fossil fuels and the
clearing of forests have increased atmospheric carbon dioxide by about 15 percent in the last
hundred years, and we continue to add carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. Could the increase in
carbon dioxide cause a global rise in average temperature, and could such a rise have serious
consequences for human society? Mathematical models that allow us to calculate the rise in
temperature as a function of the increase indicate that the answer is probably yes.
Under present conditions a temperature of -180C can be observed at an altitude of 5 to 6 kilometers
above the Earth. Below this altitude (called the radiating level), the temperature increases by about
60C per kilometer approaching the Earth's surface, where the average temperature is about 150C. An
increase in the amount of carbon dioxide means that there are more molecules of carbon dioxide to
absorb infrared radiation. As the capacity of the atmosphere to absorb infrared radiation increases,
the radiating level and the temperature of the surface must rise.
One mathematical model predicts that doubling the atmospheric carbon dioxide would raise the
global mean surface temperature by 2.50C. This model assumes that the atmosphere's relative
humidity remains constant and the temperature decreases with altitude at a rate of 6.50C per
kilometer. The assumption of constant relative humidity is important, because water vapor in the
atmosphere is another efficient absorber of radiation at infrared wavelengths. Because warm air can
hold more moisture than cool air, the relative humidity will be constant only if the amount of water
vapor in the atmosphere increases as the temperature rises. Therefore, more infrared radiation would
be absorbed and radiated back to the Earth's surface. The resultant warming at the surface could be
expected to melt snow and ice, reducing the Earth's reflectivity. More solar radiation would then be
absorbed, leading to a further increase in temperature."
91. The primary purpose of the passage is to
1) warn of the dangers of continued burning of fossil fuels
2) discuss the significance of increasing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
3) explain how a constant temperature is maintained on the Earth's surface
4) describe the ways in which various atmospheric and climatic conditions contribute to the Earth's
weather
5) Demonstrate the usefulness of mathematical models in predicting long-range climatic change
92. According to the passage, the greatest part of the solar energy that reaches the Earth is
1) concentrated in the infrared spectrum 2) concentrated at visible wavelengths

3) absorbed by carbon dioxide molecules 4) absorbed by atmospheric water vapor
5) reflected back to space by snow and ice
93. According to the passage, atmospheric carbon dioxide performs all of the following functions
EXCEPT
1) absorbing radiation at visible wavelengths 2) absorbing infrared radiation

3) absorbing outgoing radiation from the Earth 4) helping to retain heat near the Earth's surface
5) helping to maintain a constant average temperature on the Earth's surface
94. Which of the following best describes the author's attitude toward the increasing amount of carbon
dioxide in the atmosphere and its consequences ?
1) Incredulous 2) Completely detached 3) Interested but skeptical

4) Angry yet resigned 5) Objective yet concerned
choose the best answer to each question. Answer all questions following the passage on the basis of
95. It can be concluded from information contained in the passage that the average temperature at an
altitude of 1 kilometer above the Earth is about
1) 15 0 C 2) 9 0 C 3) 2.5 0 C 4) - 12 0 C 5) - 18 0 C
