A rather surprising geographical feature of Antarctica is that a huge freshwater lake, one of the world's largest and deepest, lies hidden there under four kilometers of ice Now known as Lake Vostok, this huge body of water is located under the ice block that comprises Antarctica The lake is able to exist in its unfrozen state beneath this block of ice because its waters are warmed by geothermal heat from the earth's core The thick glacier above Lake Vostok actually insulates it from the frigid temperatures on the surface
The lake was first discovered in the 1970s while a research team was conducting an aerial survey of the area Radio waves from the survey equipment penetrated the ice and revealed a body of water of indeterminate size It was not until much more recently that data collected by satellite made scientists aware of the tremendous size of the lake; the satellite-borne radar detected an extremely flat region where the ice remains level because it is floating on the water of the lake
The discovery of such a huge freshwater lake trapped under Antarctica is of interest to the scientific community because of the potential that the lake contains ancient microbes that have survived for thousands upon thousands of years, unaffected by factors such as nuclear fallout and elevated ultraviolet light that have affected organisms in more exposed areas The downside of the discovery, however, lies in the difficulty of conducting research on the lake in such a harsh climate and in the problems associated with obtaining uncontaminated samples from the lake without actually exposing the lake to contamination Scientists are looking for possible ways to accomplish this
Câu 31: What is true of Lake Vostok?
A It is beneath a thick slab of ice B It is completely frozen C It is heated by the sun D It is a saltwater lake
Câu 32: All of the following are true about the 1970 survey of Antarctica EXCEPT that it
A was conducted by air B made use of radio waves C could not determine the lake's exact size D was controlled by a satellite
Câu 33: It can be inferred from the passage that the ice would not be flat if
A the lake were not so big B Antarctica were not so cold C there were no lake underneath D radio waves were not used
Câu 34: The word "microbes" in paragraph could best be replaced by which of the following?
A Tiny bubbles B Pieces of dust C Rays of light D Tiny organisms
Câu 35: Lake Vostok is potentially important to scientists because it
A may have elevated levels of ultraviolet light B has already been contaminated C may contain uncontaminated microbes D can be studied using radio waves
Câu 36: The last paragraph suggests that scientists should be aware of
A the harsh climate of Antarctica
B ways to study Lake Vostok without contaminating it C further discoveries on the surface of Antarctica D problems with satellite-borne radar equipment
Câu 37: The purpose of the passage is to
A explain how Lake Vostok was discovered B discuss future plans for Lake Vostok C provide satellite data concerning Antarctica
