Ocean water plays an indispensable role in supporting life The great ocean basins hold about 300 million cubic miles of water From this vast amount, about 80,000 cubic miles of water are sucked into the atmosphere each year by evaporation and returned by precipitation and drainage to the ocean More than 24,000 cubic miles of rain descend annually upon the continents This vast amount is required to replenish the lakes and streams, springs and water tables on which all flora and fauna are dependent Thus, the hydrosphere permits organic existence
The hydrosphere has strange characteristics because water has properties unlike those of any other liquid One anomaly is that water upon freezing expands by about percent, whereas most liquids contract on cooling For this reason, ice floats on water bodies instead of sinking to the bottom If the ice sank, the hydrosphere would soon be frozen solidly, except for a thin layer of surface melt water during the summer season Thus, all aquatic life would be destroyed and the interchange of warm and cold currents, which moderates climate, would be notably absent
Another outstanding characteristic of water is that water has a heat capacity which is the highest of all liquids and solids except ammonia This characteristic enables the oceans to absorb and store vast quantities of heat, thereby often preventing climatic extremes In addition, water dissolves more substances than any other liquid It is this characteristic which helps make oceans a great storehouse for minerals which have been washed down from the continents In several areas of the world these minerals are being commercially exploited Solar evaporation of salt is widely practised, potash is extracted from the Dead Sea, and magnesium is produced from sea water along the American Gulf Coast
Question 30: The author’s main purpose in this passage is to _ A illustrate the importance of conserving water
B describe the properties and uses of water C compare water with other liquids
D explain how water is used in commerce and industry
Question 31: The phrase “this vast amount” in the first paragraph refers to A 80,000 million cubic miles of water B 24,000 cubic miles of rain
C 80,000 cubic miles of water D 300 million cubic miles of water Question 32: The word “outstanding” in paragraph is closest in meaning to _
A exceptionally good B special
C amusing D important
Question 33: According to the passage, fish can survive in the oceans because A evaporation and condensation create a water cycle
B there are currents in the oceans C they not need oxygen D ice floats
Question 34: Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a characteristic of water? A Water can absorb heat B Water is good solvent
C Water contracts on cooling D Water expands when it is frozen
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 35 to 42
(4)minimal There is one aspect of the war over GM that is often overlooked Anyone who wears a cotton shirt these days is using a GM crop Cotton is the only major non-food GM crop at present, but others are coming
GM cotton plants that are not food have not stopped the most passionate GM opponents from objecting If GM cotton is grown in a field next to fields of non- GM cotton, they argue, then how to keep genes from being transferred from field to field This danger, however, is not as compelling to the public as possible health hazards in food, so there is no great fury over GM cotton
GM cotton seeds produce higher yields, and they without the need for pesticides Planting of GM cotton has increased fivefold since 1997; three-quarter of cotton in America, and over half in China, is now GM Farmers like it because it increases their profits
Other options for non-food GM include new variety of flowers with different colors or scents, tougher grasses for lawns, and plants designed to soak up pollutants from the soil The paper industry provides another example of potential for GM to help produce better and cheaper products Paper is made from pulp, and pulp is generally made from trees Researchers in New Zealand and Chile have been working on insect-resistant pines, and a Japanese firm has combined carrot genes with tree genes to make them grow better in poor soil
Another interesting case is that of tobacco It is not food crop, but it is consumed, and GM tobacco plants with both more and less nicotine have been created The tobacco plant, however, is an ideal target for GM, since its genetics are very well understood and it produces a lot of leaves The value of the drugs that could be produced by GM tobacco is so high, many fanners could switch from growing tobacco for cigarettes to growing it for medicine Since medical cost is rising, consumers would also be happy to use drugs produced in bulk by GM tobacco
Question 35: What is the topic of the passage?
A Controversial GM products B The hazards of GM products C Non-food GM products D GM cotton and tobacco Question 36: Why does the author mention a cotton shirt in the first paragraph?

Question 37: The word “that” in the first paragraph refers to _
A war B aspect C GM D risk
Question 38: The word “compelling” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to A interesting B annoying C dangerous D obvious Question 39: Which options for non-food GM is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A flowers B grass C tobacco D rubber Question 40: The word “ideal” in paragraph mostly means _
A good B perfect C wrong D opinion
Question 41: According to the passage, why are researchers developing GM trees? A to improve or make paper less expensive
