A. Disruptions are more prevalent in the northern hemisphere than in thesouthern hemisphere.
B. Observing aurora activity has proven to be a better way to predict CMEs than using technological devices.
C. CMEs and other magnetic activity on the Sun can have a far-reachingeffect.

B. It does not provide strong evidence for either the human-transport or theglacier-tr ansport theory.
C. The methods used to test the bluestones were questionable.

26. 答案：B
分类:细节题
The charged particles interact with earth's magnetic field, and they are pouredtoward the south and north poles. Some of them make it to our upper atmospherewhere they collide with atoms with oxygen and nitrogen atoms. This collisioncauses the atoms to light up to glow. Different types of colors glow in differentcolors. And this is what is happening when we see an aurora. 完整对应了B的过程。
