TPO15 黃金閱讀 Glacier Formation - 英檢

Table of Contents

Paragraph2: Glaciers are open systems, with snow as the system's input and
meltwater as the system' s main output. The glacial system is governed by
two basic climatic variables: precipitation and temperature. For a glacier
to grow or maintain its mass, there must be sufficient snowfall to█[match]
or exceed the annual loss through melting, evaporation, and calving, which
occurs when the glacier loses solid chunks as icebergs to the sea or to
large lakes. If summer temperatures are high for too long, then all the
snowfall from the previous winter will melt. Surplus snowfall is essential
for a glacier to develop. A surplus allows snow to accumulate and for the
pressure of snow accumulated over the years to█[transform] buried snow into
glacial ice with a depth great enough for the ice to flow. Glaciers are
sometimes classified by temperature as faster-flowing temperate glaciers
or as slower-flowing polar glaciers.

3:The word █[match] in the passage is closest in meaning to
○measure
○enlarge
○approximate
○equal

4.The word █[transform] in the passage is closest in meaning to
○break
○push
○change
○extend

5.According to paragraph 2, surplus snow affects a glacier in all the
following ways EXCEPT:
○It provides the pressure needed to cause glacial ice to flow.
○It offsets losses of ice due to melting. evaporation, and calving.
○It brings about the formation of fern in the snow it buries.
○It results in temperate glaciers that are thicker than polar glaciers.

6.Paragraph 2 implies that which of the following conditions produces the
fastest moving glaciers?
○A climate characteristic of the polar regions
○A thick layer of ice in a temperate climate F Long,
○Warm summers
○Snow, firm and ice that have been buried for several years

有關這4題....我做的答案是 D C D C

可是搜尋到的TPO15答案卻是 C D C B....

前三題我覺得我的答案是對的...第6題不確定....

請問答案是否有問題...還是我抓到的題目排序有問題?

可以請各位大大位我解惑嘛??? 謝謝....

文章和選項都有遺缺 所以可能還是要等補齊之後再來等正解
Annie avatarAnnie2010-09-09
所以是文章的問題嘛? 還是我漏po了什麼???請賜教 {(_ _)}
Adele avatarAdele2010-09-14
你選equal就叫 input is equal to output。
Franklin avatarFranklin2010-09-18
所以是input跟output差不多。
Irma avatarIrma2010-09-19
4.我覺得change沒啥不對。可能是本段強調冰河擴充吧
Hazel avatarHazel2010-09-23
5.我歸納不出d的結論。不過c似乎沒關係。
Caroline avatarCaroline2010-09-27
有可能是=>冰河夠厚才會移動,而polar移動的慢
Doris avatarDoris2010-09-29
temperate移動較快,故厚度較厚 XD
Elvira avatarElvira2010-10-04
6.很明顯是B 移動<=因為冰層厚
Kristin avatarKristin2010-10-04
我拿到的解答345是跟原PO一樣的答案耶@@
Rachel avatarRachel2010-10-06
謝謝tearcolor的解說...我了解了^^另外,我想第5題的d,應該可
Hazel avatarHazel2010-10-07
從 移動<=因為冰層厚 推測...移動越快=>需要更厚 所以
Rachel avatarRachel2010-10-10
faster-flowing temperate glaciers 比 slower-flowing
Bethany avatarBethany2010-10-14
polar glaciers 厚 以上個人淺見 請指教^^
Bennie avatarBennie2010-10-18
最後一句 ... classfied by temperature as faster-flowing ..
Kama avatarKama2010-10-20
所以我猜Q6是C
Gary avatarGary2010-10-23
但是倒數第2句... into glacial ice with a dept great enough
Sarah avatarSarah2010-10-28
所以第6題選C應該比較合理
另外345題,我有看到一版答案是D C D
