黃金閱讀5.3 第30篇 地中海的地質歷史 - 英檢

Table of Contents

想要請教各位Q__Q

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Paragraph 3 With question such as these clearly before them,
the scientists aboard the Glomar Challenger processed to the Mediterranean to
search for the answers.
On August 23, 1970, they recovered a sample.
The sample consisted of pebbles of gypsum and fragments of volcanic rock.
Not a single pebble was found that might have indicated that the pebbles came
from the nearby continent.
In the days following, samples of solid gypsum were repeatedly brought on
deck as drilling operations
penetrated the seafloor. Furthermore, the gypsum was found to possess
peculiarities of composition and
structure that suggested it had formed on desert flats. Sediment above and
below the gypsum layer
contained tiny marine fossils, indicating open-ocean conditions.
As they drilled into the central and deepest part of the Mediterranean basin,
the scientists took solid, shiny, crystalline salt from the core barrel.
Interbedded with the salt were thin layers of what appeared to be windblown
silt.


4.Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 3 about the solid
gypsum layer?
○It did not contain any marine fossil.
○It had formed in open-ocean conditions.
○It had once been soft, deep-sea mud.
○It contained sediment from nearby deserts.



第30篇的第四題
這一題看到答案 覺得有點莫名其妙
不知道問題是不是少了個not ??

which of the following can "not"


第三段中文如下

帶著這些清楚擺在他們面前的問題,
科學家們登上Glomar Challenger號前往地中海尋找答案。
1970年8月23日,他們恢復了一個樣本。這個樣本由石膏鵝卵石和火山岩碎塊組成。
周圍沒有鵝卵石被發現,這可能說明這些小石頭不來自附近的大陸。
接下來的日子裡,隨著海底岩層穿透實驗的進行,
石膏固體樣本被不斷地放在甲板上。而且,
這些膏狀物的組成和結構特性表明它們形成於沙漠。
在石膏層上下的沉積物中包含了微小的海洋生物化石,
這說明了是開放性的海洋環境。
當鑽到地中海盆地中心的最深處時,科學家們從鑽管中獲得了堅實的、光亮的結晶鹽。
跟結晶鹽相互嵌在一起的薄層像是被風吹起的泥沙層。

ek個人以為啦 供參考 1. 去掉not才對 2.應該是在沙漠而非
Kelly avatarKelly2010-01-14
海洋 3.好像沒有講到(?) 4.有提到(膏狀物組成和結構特性)
所以題目沒有錯 :P 有問題請指教
Quintina avatarQuintina2010-01-14
原文說gypsum上下層都是富含fossil,是海洋生成的
Ingrid avatarIngrid2010-01-16
但中間的gypsum layer的組成卻看起來像由沙漠生成
Elizabeth avatarElizabeth2010-01-17
所以才會怪異(preculiarity),表示g-layer沒有fossil
所以A是對的
Jessica avatarJessica2010-01-21
還有我記得有些文章中文翻譯的不是很好...膏狀物..囧
John avatarJohn2010-01-24
不過我還是很感謝他們啦...畢竟這個真的幫很大的忙
又是免錢的...
Ethan avatarEthan2010-01-27
樓上 把這個字當作"怪異"的意思是不可數名詞
但原文裡面寫的是這個名詞的複數形(perculiaries)
Hardy avatarHardy2010-01-28
所以應該是當作特性才對吧
Donna avatarDonna2010-01-31
打錯字了 XD perculiarities
Edwina avatarEdwina2010-02-03
耍笨了 preculiarities
Elma avatarElma2010-02-08
囧 peculiarities.. 嗚嗚 ><....
Kristin avatarKristin2010-02-12
還真的耶...看到的時候就把他想成怪異了 XD 謝樓上
Lucy avatarLucy2010-02-12
謝謝各位!!
Genevieve avatarGenevieve2010-02-16
不過我覺得答案還是A...我看到nearby我就劃掉D了..囧
如果拿掉nearby就對了我覺得
Doris avatarDoris2010-02-20
有nearby就劃掉的原因是什麼呀~可以分享一下嗎
Belly avatarBelly2010-02-21
因為他說Glayer是由沙漠形成,所以come from desert ok
Barb Cronin avatarBarb Cronin2010-02-24
但是加nearby就是由附近的沙漠來的,所以不對..我覺得
Lydia avatarLydia2010-02-26
而且文章一開始就有說gypsum pebble不是從附近來的
Olive avatarOlive2010-03-01
了解.. 感謝^^
Madame avatarMadame2010-03-05
gypsum had formed on desert flats是說gypsum由
Doris avatarDoris2010-03-07
desert flats上形成 但gypsum的上下層有tiny marine fossils
Connor avatarConnor2010-03-07
題目問的是about the solid gypsum layer 要表達的應該是
Enid avatarEnid2010-03-11
每一層的行成是在不同環境下造成 所以他問的那層沒有
contain any marine fossil 是對低
Blanche avatarBlanche2010-03-13
而第四個答案就是多了nearby 他就是在desert flats上形成的
