想請問Water in the desert的Q11

Paragraph 7:
Water does not remain immobile in an aquifer but can seep out at springs or
leak into other aquifers. The rate of movement may be very slow: in the Indus
plain, the movement of saline (salty) ground waters has still not reached
equilibrium after 70 years of being tapped. The mineral content of groundwater
normally increases with the depth, but even quite shallow aquifers can be
highly saline.

11. The passage supports which of the following statements about water in the
desert?
○ The most visible forms of water are not the most widespread forms of water
in the desert.

○ Groundwater in the desert cannot become a source of drinking water but can
be used for irrigation.

○ Most of the water in the desert is contained in shallow aquifers that are
being rapidly recharged.

○ Desert areas that lack endogenous or exogenous rivers and streams cannot
support life.

答案是A...我自己也是選A 但是我是用刪去法的~
因為可以肯定這段裡面沒有提到 B.飲用水 C.recharged D.support life的部分

可是等到回頭想要找A的支持理由的時後卻也看不出來A.的描述
只覺得這段是在講水不是不會移動的而已...請問足以支持A的是在哪裡呢??
謝謝~

我猜想是 ground waters has still not reached... 這句

應該是說經過這麼久時間水量還是很少,所以不會到地面?
我猜的啦,因為它大部分都在說地下水 - .. -"

謝謝您的解釋唷~我原本也是想說該不會是因為這段一直提地
下水~所以答案是a...看來是這樣沒錯^^

想通了,文章說大部分的水不是靜止不動的,即使過70年
卻還未達到平衡。所以視覺上看到的水,跟廣大的地下

部分,並不是同等的。
