Where Has the Salt Come from?
Every now and then,we meet a fact about our earth that makes us feel strange and no
answer for the fact has yet been found.Such a fact is the existence of salt in the oceans.
How did it get there?
We simply do not know how the salt got into the ocean!We do know,of course,that
salt is water-soluble,and so passes into the oceans with rainwater.The salt of the earth's
surface is constantly being dissolved（溶解）and is passing into the ocean.
But we do not know whether this can explain the huge quantity of salt in oceans.If all
the oceans were dried up,enough salt would be left to build a wall 180 miles high and a
mile thick. Such a wall would reach once around the world at the Equator（赤道）!
The common salt that we all use is produced from seawater or the water of salt lakes,
from salt springs（源泉）and from deposits of rock salt. The concentration（浓度）of salt in
seawater ranges from about three percent to three-and-one-half percent. The Dead Sea,
which covers an area of about 340 square miles,contains about 11,600,000,000 tons of
salt!
On the average, a gallon（加仑）of seawater contains about a quarter of a pound of
salt.The beds of rock salt that are found in various parts of the world were all originally
formed by the evaporation（蒸发）of seawater millions of years ago. It is believed that the
thick rock-salt deposits were formed after about nine-tenth of theY volume of seawater had
been evaporated.
Most commercial salt is obtained from rock salt.The usual method is to drill wells（井）
down to the salt beds. Pure water is pumped down（抽进去）through a pipe. The water
dissolves the salt and it is forced through another pipe up to the surface.

第4题：
单选题Since 1960, the fast-growing town of Hotstone, Arizona, has drawn water from the Gray River, which feeds Lake Mudfish. If the town’s water use continues to grow at its present rate, in about 20 years the water level of Lake Mudfish will inevitably decrease to the point that it can no longer support its biologically fragile population of fish. The prediction above is based on which of the following assumptions?AAs the town’s water requirements grow, it will not be able to meet those requirements by drawing on water sources other than the Gray River.
BSince 1960, the lake’s population of fish has become more biologically fragile.
CThe amount of water that the lake loses to evaporation each year will increase over the next two decades.
DThere are multiple sources of water besides the Gray River that feed into Lake Mudfish.
EThe town of Hotstone will be able to reverse its trend of increasing water use if it implements an aggressive water conservation program.
正确答案： B解析：
由文段的内容可知，Mudfish湖之所以会干涸是因为Gray River的水都被用来提供给周边的Hotstone和Arizona，所以可知本题应选A项。 -

单选题请阅读 Passage 1，完成第 21~25小题。Passage 1These days，many large city buildings are equipped with their own air-conditioning systems.These systems help keep the buildings cool，but they can also damage the environment.Since they use a lot of electricity，for instance，they contribute indirectly to global warming.In addition，the water that flows through the systems is often cooled using chemicals called chlorofluorocarbons，or CFCs，that are believed to damage the Earth's ozone layer.Recently，though，a system has been built in the city of Toronto，Canada，that cools buildings with little damage to the environment. In the traditional air-conditioning systems found in most large buildings，water is pumped through the building in a continuous cycle.The water is first cooled to a temperature of 4℃ in machines called chillers.It is then sent to individual units that cool the air in each room.As the water flows through the building，it gradually becomes warmer.Finally，it reaches the roof ，where it is left to cool down naturally in a water tower.After that it is returned to the chillers，where the cycle begins again.Toronto lies on the shore of Lake Ontario，one of North America's Great Lakes，and the new system makes use of cold water taken from about 80 meters below the surface of the lake.At this depth，the water in the lake remains at 4℃ all year round.This is exactly the temperature to which the water in air-conditioning systems is cooled.However，the water from the lake is not pumped directly into the air-conditioning systems.Instead，it is used to cool the water that is already inside the air-conditioning systems.After that，the lake water is added to the city's ordinary water supply.Enwave，the company that developed this deep-lake cooling system，says that it uses 75 percent less energy than traditional air conditioning.And since no CFCs are used，no damage can be caused to the ozone layer.Not every city is located next to a large lake，but experts believe that systems like the one being used in Toronto could be built elsewhere by using other natural sources of cold water.What is the function of the chillers in a traditional air-conditioning system?AThey pump the air continuously to the units in each room.
BThey lower the temperature of the water in the system.
CThey help the water cool down naturally on the roof .
DThey gradually clean the water as it flows through the building.

单选题Passage2 Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage. Salt is as necessary to life as water. In many areas of Africa people once drank the urine（尿）of animals because they had no other source of salt. Without salt, human beings die. The human body demands that the amount of salt in the blood always stay the same. When the body does not get enough salt, it protects itself by letting less salt leave the body in. urine and sweat. But it cannot reduce this output to zero. Some salt is always escaping. On a completely saltless diet, like that of some people in Africa, the body steadily loses small amounts of salt through the kidneys（肾） and sweat glands(腺). It then tries to adjust to this loss by speeding up its secretion(分泌) of water. (78) In this way, the body attempts to keep the amount of salt in the blood at the necessary level. The result is a slow drying up of body and, finally, death. The person dies of thirst. In cases where there is little or no water to drink, the body tries to do the opposite thing.Again, it must keep the salt level in the blood constant. Because it has little water, it attempts to stop water from leaving the body and to increase its secretion of. salt. But, as with the escaping salt, it cannot be completely successful. Some water still leaves and the person eventually dies of thirst. In short, the body's normal needs for salt and for water are both parts of the same important need to keep the salt level in the blood constant.7 In order to adjust to the loss of salt, the body______.Aloses some blood
Bspeeds up its secretion of water
Cspeeds up its secretion of salt
Dis drying up slowly

BThe water deep in Lake Ontario always remains at the same temperature.
CExperts warn that the use of CFCs in Enwave' s system will add to global warming.
