TPO12 Reading-Water in the Desert - 英檢

Table of Contents

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

這題我一直找不出答案,最後亂答~

看到答案後還是覺得很奇怪...

我看不出這一段有講到visisble form和widespread forms的相關內容啊

請牛人們幫忙解惑~~感恩!!

這題好像不是只針對第7段而問,可能得參考其他內容作答.

題目是寫文章而非段落,所以應該是從整篇文章下手
