閱讀理解:

  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 (傾斜) gradually to a depth of about 500 feet. This shelf is built up of sediment (沉積物) 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 (示意圖) from the following according to the information given:

[  ]

A.

B.

C.

D.

2.Which of those is the biggest?

[  ]

A.The Pacific.
B.The Arctic.
C.The Southern Ocean.
D.The Mediterranean.

3.The continental shelf is found ________.

[  ]

A.a(chǎn)t a depth of 500 feet only
B.near the mouths of rivers
C.near low, flat coastline
D.a(chǎn)round the continents

4.The greatest area of continental shelf is to be found ________.

[  ]

A.a(chǎn)t 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 ________.

[  ]

A.0 to over 40 miles
B.30 to 40 miles
C.0 to 500 feet
D.0 to 1200 feet

  Tristan da Cunha.a(chǎn) 38-square-mile island, is the farthest inhabited island in the world, according to the Guinness Book of Records.It is 1,510 miles southwest of its nearest neighbor, St.Helena, and 1,950 miles west of Africa.Discovered by the Portuguese admiral (葡萄牙海軍上將) of the same name in 1506, and settled in 1810, the island belongs to Great Britain and has a population of a few hundred.

  Coming in a close second and often wrongly mentioned as the most distant land is Easter Island, which lies 1,260 miles east of its nearest neighbor, Pitcairn Island, and 2,300 miles west of South America.

  The mountainous 64-square-mile island was settled around the 5th century, supposedly by people who were lost at sea.They had no connection with the outside world for more than a thousand years, giving them plenty of time to build more than 1,000 huge stone figures, called moai, for which the island is most famous.

  On Easter Sunday, 1722, however, settlers from Holland moved in and gave the island its name.Today, 2,000 people live on the Chilean territory (智力領(lǐng)土)? They share one street, a small airport, and a few hours of television per day.

1.It can be learned from the text that the island of Tristan da Cunha________.

[  ]

A.was named after its discoverer

閱讀理解:

  Australia, the last continent, was discovered by ships belonging to some European nations in the seventeenth century. These nations were less interested in changing it into a colony(殖民地)than in exploring(勘探)it. As in the early history of the United States, it was the English who set up the settlements(新拓居地)in Australia. This history and the geography of these two British colonies have some other things in common as well.

  Australia and the United States are about the same in size, and their western lands are both not rich in soil, It was the eastern coast of Australia and America that the English first settled, and both colonies soon began to develop towards the west. However, this westward movement took place more because the English were searching for better land than because the population was increasing. Settlements of the western part of both countries developed quickly after gold was discovered in America in 1849 and in Australia two years later.

  Although the development of these two countries has a lot in common, there are some striking differences as well. The United States gained its independence from England by revolution while Australia won its independence without having to go to war. Australia, unlike the United States, was firstly turned into a colony by English prisoners and its economic development was in wheat growing and sheep raising. By 1922, for example, Australia had fifteen times more sheep than it had people, or almost half as many sheep as there are people today in the United States. Yet, in spite of these and other main differences, Australia and the United States have more in common with each other than either one has with most of the rest of the world.

1. Who turned Australia into a colony? ______ .

[  ]

A. Britain B. Several European countries

C. The United States of America D. None of the above

2. In the early history of America and Australia, both colonies developed towards the west firstly for the reason that ______ .

[   ]

A. the population was increasing rapidly in the east

B. the English thought there might be richer land there

C. gold was discovered there

D. fewer people lived there

3. In the early 1920s, ______ .

[   ]

A. Australia had one fifteenth as many people as sheep

B. there were more sheep in Australia than in the United States

C. the population in Australia was greater than that of the United States

D. the United States had twice as many sheep as people

4. Australia, unlike the United States, ______ .

[   ]

A. won its independence by peaceful means

B. did not discover gold until the sate 1840s

C. was the last and biggest continent to be discovered

D. was not rich in gold in its western part

5. The last sentence in the last paragraph “Australia and the United States have more in common with each other than either one has with most of the rest of the world” means“ ______ ”.

[   ]

A. The United States and Australia do not have any main differences

B. The United States and Australia have much more in common than they have with other countries.

C. The United States and Australia have nothing in common with the rest of the world

D. In common with the rest of the world, the United States and Australia have a lot of differences.

  The famous director of a big and expensive movie planned to film a beautiful sunset over the ocean(海洋)so that the audiences(or people who watch the film)could see his hero and heroine in front of it at the end of the film as they said goodbye to each other for ever.He sent his camera crew(攝制組)out one evening to film the sunset for him.

  The next morning he said to the men, “Have you provided me with that sunset?”

  “No, sir.” the men answered.

  The girls in this sixth grade class in East Palo Alto, California, all have the same access to computers as boys.But researchers say, by the time they get to high school, they are victims(受害者)of what the researchers call a major new gender(性別)gap in technology.Janice Weinman of the American Association of University Women(AAUW)says,“Girls tend to be less comfortable than boys with the computer.They use it more for word processing rather than for problem solving, rather than to discover new ways in which to understand information.

  After re-examining a thousand studies, the AAUW researchers found that girls make up only a small percentage of students in computer science classes.Girls rate themselves significantly lower than boys in their ability and confidence in using computers.And they use computers less often than boys outside the classroom.

  An instructor of a computer lab says he's already noticed some difference.Charles Cheadle of Cesar Chavez School says,“Boys are not so afraid they might do something that will harm the computer, whereas girls are afraid they might break it somehow.”

  Six years ago, the software company Purple Moon noticed that girls' computer usage was falling behind boys.Karen Gould with the company says,“The number one reason girls told us they don't like computer games is not that they're too violent, or too competitive.Girls just said they're unbelievably boring.”What girls want, Purple Moon found, is characters they can relate to and story lines relative to what's going on in their own lives.“What we definitely found from girls is(that there is no intrinsic)(內(nèi)在的)reason why they wouldn't want to play on a computer; it was just a content thing,”says Karen Gould.

  The sponsor of the study says it all boils down to this:the technology gender gap that separates the girls from the boys must be closed if women are to compete effectively with men in the 21st century.

(1)

According to the passage, girls are victims of the gender gap in technology because ________,

[  ]

A.

they can not discover new ways to use computers

B.

they have the same access to computers as boys

C.

they are likely to be less comfortable with computers

D.

they can only use computers for word processing

(2)

Girls often feel ________.

[  ]

A.

bored with computer games

B.

comfortable using computers

it hard to use computers in word processing

worried about using computers

(3)

The research on girls and computers is ________.

[  ]

A.

based on a few recent studies

B.

based on a great number of studies

C.

presented by one person

D.

not considered well grounded

(4)

The software company seems to think ________.

[  ]

A.

if girls had an equal chance to play games, they would like computers

B.

if the software content was changed, girls would be more interested

C.

if the software was more violent, girls would like it better

D.

if the characters were funny, girls would like them better

(5)

The gender gap needs to be closed because ________.

[  ]

A.

it isn't fair that boys are allowed to use computers all the time

B.

there isn't enough money for updating computer system

C.

most of the causes may boil down to a question of money

D.

the ability to use computers is important in today's world
