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 9 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.

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

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

If the salinity of ocean waters is analyzed, it is found to vary only slightly from place to place. Nevertheless, some of these small changes are important. There are three basic processes that cause a change in oceanic salinity. One of these is the subtraction of water from the ocean by means of evaporation-conversion of liquid water to water vapor. In this manner, the salinity is increased, since the salt behind. If this is carried to the extreme, of course, white crystals of salt would be left behind.

The opposite of evaporation is precipitation, such as rain, by which water is added to the ocean. Here the ocean is being diluted so that the salinity is decreased. This may occur in areas of high rainfall or in coastal regions where rivers flow into the ocean. Thus salinity may be increased by the subtraction of water by evaporation, or decreased by the addition of fresh water by precipitation or runoff.

Normally, in tropical regions where the sun is very strong, the ocean salinity is somewhat higher than it is in other parts of the world where there is not as much evaporation. Similarly, in coastal regions where rivers dilute the sea, salinity is somewhat lower than in other oceanic areas.

A third process by which salinity may be altered is associated with the formation and melting of sea ice. When seawater is frozen, the dissolved materials are left behind. In this manner, seawater directly beneath freshly formed sea ice has a higher salinity than it did before the ice appeared. Of course, when this ice melts, it will tend to decrease the salinity of the surrounding water.

In the Weddell Sea, off Antarctica, the densest water in the ocean is formed as a result of this freezing process, which increases the salinity of cold water. This heavy water sinks and is found in the deeper portions of the oceans of the world.

According to the passage, the ocean generally has more salt in

A. coastal areas

B. rainy areas

C. turbulent areas

D. tropical areas

Theo đoạn văn, đại dương thường có nhiều muối trong

A. vùng ven biển B. vùng mưa C. vùng hỗn loạn D. vùng nhiệt đới

Thông tin: Normally, in tropical regions where the sun is very strong, the ocean salinity is somewhat higher than it is in other parts of the world where there is not as much evaporation.

Tạm dịch: Thông thường, ở các vùng nhiệt đới nơi mặt trời rất mạnh, độ mặn của đại dương có phần cao hơn so với các khu vực khác trên thế giới, nơi không có nhiều sự bốc hơi.

Chọn D

Dịch bài đọc:

Nếu độ mặn của nước biển được phân tích, nó được tìm ra rằng nó chỉ thay đổi một chút từ nơi này sang nơi khác. Tuy nhiên, một số thay đổi nhỏ này rất quan trọng. Có ba quá trình cơ bản gây ra sự thay đổi độ mặn của đại dương. Một trong số đó là phép trừ nước từ đại dương bằng phương pháp bay hơi - chuyển đổi nước lỏng thành hơi nước. Theo cách này, độ mặn được tăng lên, vì muối sót lại. Nếu điều này được thực hiện đến cùng cực, tất nhiên, các tinh thể muối trắng sẽ bị để lại.

Đối lập với sự bốc hơi là kết nước, chẳng hạn như mưa, qua đó nước được thêm vào đại dương. Ở đây đại dương đang bị pha loãng để độ mặn giảm. Điều này có thể xảy ra ở những khu vực có lượng mưa lớn hoặc ở những vùng ven biển nơi sông chảy vào đại dương. Do đó, độ mặn có thể được tăng lên bằng cách trừ nước bằng cách bay hơi, hoặc giảm khi bổ sung nước ngọt bằng lượng mưa hoặc dòng chảy.

Thông thường, ở các vùng nhiệt đới nơi mặt trời rất mạnh, độ mặn của đại dương có phần cao hơn so với các khu vực khác trên thế giới, nơi không có nhiều sự bốc hơi. Tương tự, ở các vùng ven biển nơi các con sông làm loãng biển, độ mặn có phần thấp hơn so với các khu vực đại dương khác.

Một quá trình thứ ba mà độ mặn có thể bị thay đổi có liên quan đến sự hình thành và tan chảy của băng biển. Khi nước biển bị đóng băng, các vật liệu hòa tan bị bỏ lại. Theo cách này, nước biển trực tiếp bên dưới băng biển mới hình thành có độ mặn cao hơn so với trước khi băng xuất hiện. Tất nhiên, khi băng này tan ra, nó sẽ có xu hướng làm giảm độ mặn của nước xung quanh.

Ở biển Weddell, ngoài khơi Nam Cực, nước dày đặc nhất trong đại dương được hình thành là kết quả của quá trình đóng băng này, làm tăng độ mặn của nước lạnh. Nước nặng này chìm xuống và được tìm thấy ở những nơi sâu hơn của các đại dương trên thế giới.
