中国队北极科考测量珠峰高度 (中文版本+英文原文）

[tr][/tr][td=1007][/td]中国人测量珠峰的那道,似乎9月jj上有了..一道问下面哪个会增加R问题: 增加和山峰的距离..一道主题题,其它忘了…

[tr][/tr][td=1007][/td]中国登山队测量喜马拉雅山高度的那道jj。以前的G友说过这篇文章第一段可以跳过，同意他的看法，只要大致扫过第二段所提到中国登山队不同于英国队的几点作法，心中有个谱即可作答。说真的，我只看懂其中第一点：光线穿透云层时会产生折射(refraction)，其它两点似懂非懂，并不影响答题。大家不需浪费太多时间钻研里面的生词或概念，题目都很浅显、简单。
问题：
(1) 主题题。参考答案：描述对某项程序(procedure)持续的改进。
(2) 下列哪些情形有可能产生折射。参考答案：当光线穿透湿气很重的云层时。
(3) 下列那个选项不是文中所提到改进的作法。参考答案：使用工具的改良。
(4) 目的题：第二段第一句话的作用。第一段在讲英国队和中国队一致的一些作法，第二段才开始讲述中国队的改良作法，有明显的转折 (Chinese team, however, blablabla…)。参考答案：translates the focus

[tr][/tr][td=1007][/td]有中国队北极科考的一篇。第一段都不需要看。第二段开始讲述了三个source of error,第一个是折射, 第二个不记得了, 第三个是uneven海平面

[tr][/tr][td=1007][/td]中国登山队对喜马拉雅山最高峰进行测试，用的方法基本和british队的一样，但是中国队才用了一些其他方法来纠正或者避免以前british队测量的error ”
第 一段没什么重要，主要是第二段，但是专业术语很多，建议速读，再回去定位就好。有一题问第二段开头一句话的作用。还有一题问一下那个选项不是影响测量的准 确性的要素。因为时间来不及仔细看了，在两个选乡间犹豫了一下，一个是mirage，一个是inaccurate instrument.

-------------------------------------------------------------
Q32
It can be inferred from the passage that
refraction would be most likely to cause
errors in measurements of a mountain’s
elevation under which of the following
conditions?
A. When there are local variations in sea
level
B. When light passes through humid air
C. When theodolites are used relatively far
from the mountain peak.
D. When weather balloons indicate low air
temperature and pressure.
E. When sea level has been carried in to
Within five to twelve miles of the summit.

-------------------------------------------------------------
Q33
Which of the following best describes the
purpose of the sentence in lines 23-25
(“The Chinese…the British”)?
A. Introduce a definition
B. Signal a transition in focus
C. Summarize the preceding paragraph
D. Draw a contrast between two different
theories.
E. Present information that contradicts the
Preceding paragraph.

----------------------------------------------------
Q34
Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a
possible source of error in surveying mountain
elevation?
A. Mirages
B. Refraction
C. Inaccurate instruments
D. Variations in sea level
E. Uncertainty about the exact point to be
Measured

---------------------------------------------------
Q35
The primary purpose of the passage is to
A. provide details about improvements to a
process
B. challenge the assumptions underlying a
new method
C. criticize the way in which a failed project
was carried out
D. call for new methods to solve an existing
problem
E. explain the theory behind a new technique

狗主的 原话“第一题和最后一题不一样。第一题也是推论，但是推论的中英两次测量活动异同点。最后一个失忆了…… ”

我那个帖子有原文了，直接拿来就好了。
