Part of the world’s largest ice shelf is melting(融化)10times faster than expected,research has shown.The accelerated melting is thought to be due to the surface of the surrounding ocean being heated by the sun.The discovery suggests that the Ross Ice Shelf(RIS)—a floating piece of Antarctic ice,the size of France—is weaker to global warming than previously thought.
“The stability of ice shelves is generally thought to be related to their exposure to warm deep ocean water,”Dr. Craig Stewart from the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research(NIWA)in New Zealand,who conducted the work while a PhD student at the University of Cambridge.
“We’ve found that solar heated surface water also plays a key role in melting ice shelves.”RIS stabilizes the West Antarctic ice sheet by blocking the ice which flows into it from some of the world’s largest glaciers(冰川).
“If the ice shelf falls,the rate at which these glaciers transport water to the ocean could speed up dramatically, causing sea levels to rise.Previous studies have shown that when ice shelves fall,the feeding glaciers can speed up for a reason or two or three,”said co-author Dr.Poul Christoffersen from Cambridge’s Scott Polar Research Institute.
“The difference here is the size of RIS,which is over one hundred times larger than the ice shelves we’ve already seen disappear.”
They took measurements of temperature,salinity(盐度),melt rate and ocean currents using instruments passed through a260-metre hole.Four years’worth of data were also collected.In addition,a custom-made radar(雷达) system was employed to survey the changing thickness of the ice.
“Climate change is likely to result in less sea ice,and higher surface ocean temperatures in the Ross Sea, suggesting that melt rates in this region will increase in the future,”Dr.Stewart said.
28.What can we learn from the passage?
A.Antarctic ice is as large as France.
B.Dr.Craig Stewart conducted the research alone.
C.RIS is part of the Antarctic ice sheet.
D.More than100ice shelves disappeared.
29.Which of the following causes the RIS to melt faster?
A.Size of ice sheet.
B.Higher surface ocean temperatures.
C.Ocean salinity.
D.Ocean currents.
30.What is the writer’s attitude towards the future of the Ross Ice Shelf?
A.Positive.
B.Concerned.
C.Optimistic.
D.Cold.
31.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A.RIS is moving faster and faster.
B.Sea levels are rising ten times faster.
C.Glaciers fall more frequently these years.
D.Heated surrounding oceans speed up RIS melting.

“This Hub is like a‘Swiss Army Knife’with multiple tools that will quickly make it vital and universal for connected homes and small businesses,”Sprint CEO Michel Combes said in a news release.“It uses the speed of our upcoming5G network to drive content sharing,gaming,entertainment and more.”
