(1) |
本题问的是19世纪40年代Maury负责的远洋航行的目的是什么。这个问题比较具体。题干本身已点明了答案可能的出处,即第四段的第二句。这句中动词不定式to investigate the depths of the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans回答了这个问题。所以,答案是D项。 |
(2) |
前一部分说“从海底捞出的电缆上覆盖着各种各样的生物”,后一部分说“当时的科学观点认为海洋深处是没有生命的”。由此可见,前一部分的“事实”是“批驳”后一部分的“观点”。所以答案是C项。 |
(3) |
本题问及全篇的中心意思。第一段谈的是关于“海洋学”的定义;第二段是讲19世纪前对海洋感兴趣的科学家不多;第三段谈到由于有人提出铺设海底电缆,人们开始研究“海底深处究竟有什么”;第四段说Maury考察北大西洋和太平洋的发现引起广泛的注意;第五段讲在铺设海底电缆过程中发现大量海洋生物;最后一段是海洋学研究的成果。可见全篇主要还是讲海洋学的研究是如何开展起来的。所以,答案是A项,其余几项均为细节,不能作为主题。 |

阅读理解:
The sea world is divided into three main oceans, the Pacific, the Atlantic and the Indian and two smaller oceans, the Arctic or the Northern Ocean, and the Antarctic or the Southern Ocean. The Pacific is by far the largest of these, for it covers half the sea- area of the world. In addition to the oceans there are other areas of sea, such as the Red Sea, the Mediterranean, the North Sea, the Caribbean Sea (加勒比海) and the Black Sea.
The continents are entirely surrounded by what is called the “continental shelf” which slopes (倾斜) gradually to a depth of about 500 feet. This shelf is built up of sediment (沉积物) which has been brought down to the sea by the continental river. Where the land near the coast is low and flat, the continental shelf may extend thirty, forty or even more miles from the coast; where mountain ranges run parallel (平行的) to the sea and near to it ( as on the east coast of Africa), the shelf is narrowed to only a mile or two.
From the edge of the shelf the sea- bed slopes sharply downwards so that the depth of water from the surface rapidly becomes greater, down to perhaps 1,200 feet.
1.Choose a correct diagram (示意图) from the following according to the information given:
[ ]
A.
B.
C.
D.
2.Which of those is the biggest?
[ ]
3.The continental shelf is found ________.

[ ]
A.at a depth of 500 feet
B.near low, flat coastline
C.near mountain ranges paralleled to the sea
D.off the east coast of Africa
5.The depth of the continental shelf varies (不同,不等) from ________.
