共用题干Earth Rocks on
Most of the time,the ground feels solid beneath our feet. That{S comforting. But it's also misleading
because there's actually a lot going on underground.Masses of land(called plates)slip,slide,and bump
against each other,slowly changing the shape of continents and oceans over millions and billions of years.
Scientists know that Earth formed about 4.5 billion years ago.They also know that our planet was hot at
first. As it cooled , its outermost layer , called the crust(地壳), eventually formed moving plates. Exactly
when this shift happened,however,is an open question.
Now,an international group of researchers has an answer. They'ye found new evidence suggesting that
Earth's crust started shifting at least 3.8 billion years ago.The new estimate is 1.3 billion years earlier than
previous ones.
Not long before 3. 8 billion years ago,lots of asteroids(小行星)were hitting Earth,keeping its crust in
a hot,melted state.After the hard crust formed,much of it sank at various times into the planet's hot in-
sides.There,it melted before returning to the surface.
In some places,however,the crust never sank.One of the oldest such places is in Greenland,in an area
called the Isua supracrustal(上地壳) belt. The rocky crust there is between 3. 7 and 3. 8 billion years old.
The belt was once part of the seafloor,but now it is exposed to air.
The researchers recently took a close look at the Isua supracrustal belt. They noticed long,parallel
cracks in the rock that have been filled in with a type of volcanic rock.
To explain this structure,the scientists propose that tension in the crust caused the seafloor to crack
open long ago. Hot , liquid rock , called magma(岩浆),flowed up slowly from deep inside Earth to fill the
cracks.Finally,the whole area cooled,forming what we see today.
That explanation,plus chemical clues inside the rock,suggests that the Isua supracrustal belt was once
part of a plate under the ocean,beginning around 3.8 billion years ago.
选项
The ground beneath our feet is indeed still.A:RightB:WrongC:Not mentioned
答案
B
解析
由第一段的前三句话可知,大部分时间我们认为地球是固定的这种想法是错误的。所 以该判断错误。 由第一段最后一句话可知,陆地和海洋是很多年前由于板块运动而形成的,所以此判 断正确。 由第一段最后一句话可知,并不是地球一冷却下来就形成了,地球是经过板块成千上 万亿年的运动慢慢形成的。 由第三段可知,地壳发生变化是在约38亿年前。所以此判断错误。 通读全文可知,文章中并没有提及溶化的地壳需要多久才能变硬。 由最后一段可知Isua的地壳带大约于38亿年前开始形成。 通读全文可知,文章并未提到Isua地壳带成了一个度假胜地。
