30、、D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项。AThe Atlantic Ocean is one of the oceans that separate the Old World from the New. For centuries it kept the Americans from being discovered by the people of Europe.Many wrong ideas about the Atlantic made early sailors unwilling to sail far out into it. One idea was that it reached
31、out to “the edge of the world.” Sailors were afraid that they might sail right off the earth. Another idea was that at the equator the ocean would be boiling hot.The Atlantic Ocean is only half as big as the Pacific, but it is still very large. It is more than 4,000 miles (6,000km) wide where Columb
32、us crossed it. Even at its narrowest it is about 2,000 miles (3,200km) wide.Two things make the Atlantic Ocean rather unusual. For so large an ocean it has very few islands. Also, it is the worlds saltiest ocean.There is so much water in the Atlantic that it is hard to imagine how much there is. But
33、 suppose no more rain fell into it and no more water was brought to it by rivers. It would take the ocean about 4,000 years to dry up. On the average the water is a little more than two miles (3.2km) deep, but in places it is much deeper. The deepest spot is near Puerto Rico. This “deep” measures 30
34、,246 feet-almost six miles (9.6km).One of the longest mountain ranges of the world rises from the floor of the Atlantic. This mountain range runs north and south down the middle of the ocean. The tops of a few of the mountains reach up above the sea and make islands.Several hundred miles eastward fr
35、om Florida there is a part of the ocean called the Sargasso Sea. Here the water is quiet, for there is little wind. In the days of sailing vessels(船) the crew were afraid they would be becalmed(停滞不前) here. Sometimes they were.Today the Atlantic is a great highway. It is not, however, always a smooth
36、 and safe one. Storms sweep across it and pile up great waves. Icebergs float down from the Far North across the paths of ships.We now have such fast ways of traveling that this big ocean seems to have grown smaller. Columbus sailed for more than two months to cross it. A fast modern steamship can m
37、ake the trip in less than four days. Airplanes fly from New York to London in only eight hours and from South America to Africa in four!56. Which world is the Old World?A. AfricaB. EuropeC. AsiaD. All of above57. What caused people to be unwilling to explore the Atlantic?A. There are no ships big en
38、ough to get across the Ocean.B. Sailors were afraid of being lost in the Ocean.C. The Atlantic Ocean was very unusual because it has few islands and the saltiest water.D. Many incorrect ideas such as “the edge of the world”, “the equator with boiling hot water”, made people think the Ocean was full
39、of danger.58. What is the topic of the fifth paragraph?A. How deep the water isB. How to measure the water in the Atlantic OceanC. How much water the Ocean holds.D. How rain affects the Ocean water.59. We can learn from the text that _.A. the Atlantic is the largest ocean on earthB. one of the longe

It serves directly to assist a rapid distribution of goods at reasonable prices, ther
41、eby establishing a firm home market and so making it possible to provide for export at competitive prices. By drawing attention to new ideas it helps enormously to raise standards of living. By helping to increase demand it ensures an increased need for labor, and is therefore an effective way to fi
42、ght unemployment. It lowers the costs of many services: without advertisements your daily newspaper would cost four times as much, the price of your television license would need to be doubled, and travel by bus or tube would cost 20 per cent more. And perhaps most important of all, advertising prov
43、ides a guarantee of reasonable value in the products and services you buy. Apart from the fact that twenty-seven Acts of Parliament govern the terms of advertising, no regular advertiser dare promote a product that fails to live up to the promise of his advertisements. He might fool some people for
44、a little while through misleading advertising. He will not do so for long, for mercifully the public has the good sense not to buy the inferior article more than once. If you see an article consistently advertised, it is the surest proof I know that the article does what is claimed for it, and that
45、it represents good value.60. By the first sentence of the passage, the author means that_.
