问一道tpo 09的题

Spores light enough to float on the breezes were carried thousands of miles
from more ancient lands and deposited at random across the bare mountain
flanks. A few of these spores found a toehold on the dark, forbidding rocks and
grew and began to wrok their transformation upon the land. Lichens were
probably the first successful flora. These are not single individual plants; each
one is a symbiotic combination of an alga and a fungus. The algae capture the
sun ’ s energy by photosynthesis and store it in organic molecules. The fungi
absorb moisture and mineral salts from the rocks, passing these on in waste
products that nouris h algae. It is significant that the earliest living thing that built
communities on these islands are examples of symbiosis, a phenomenon that
depends upon the close cooperation of two or more forms of life and a principle
that is very important in island communit ies.

15. It can be inferred from Paragraph2 that the fungi in lichens benefit from their
symbiotic relationship with algae in what way?
A. The algae help the fungi meet some of their energy needs.
B. The algae protect the fungi from the Sun ’ s radiation.
C. The algae provide the fungi with greater space for absorbing water
D. The fungi produce less waste in the presence of algae

Paragraph 1：The vast grasslands of the High Plains in the central United States were
settled by farmers and ranchers in the 1880’s. This region has a semiarid climate, and for 50
years after its settlement, it supported a low-intensity agricultural economy of cattle ranching
and wheat farming. In the early twentieth century, however, it was discovered that much of
the High Plains was underlain by a huge aquifer  (a rock layer containing large quantities of
groundwater). This aquifer was named the Ogallala aquifer after the Ogallala Sioux Indians,
who once inhabited the region.

1．According to paragraph 1, which of the following statements about the High Plains is
true?
○Until farmers and ranchers settled there in the 1880’s, the High Plains had never been
inhabited.
○The climate of the High Plains is characterized by higher-than-average temperatures.
○The large aquifer that lies underneath the High Plains was discovered by the Ogallala
Sioux Indians.
○Before the early 1900’s there was only a small amount of farming and ranching in the
High Plains.

With the onset of the Industrial Revolution, knowing the age of rocks became a necessary prerequisite to finding industrial minerals, such as coal, iron, and the other materials that fueled and sustained the great Western industrialization of the eighteenth      and nineteenth centuries. It was in the mining regions where engineers, who needed a better system for organizing the various types of rock scattered across Earth's surface, first grappled with scientific approaches to understanding the age of various rocks—and the age of Earth. They realized that if the various rock units could he dated by their relative ages, correlations among even widely separated rocks could be established and from this, some order recognized.

The pioneering European geologists first believed that identifying a rock's type would  give them a strong clue to the age of the rock formation and that one of the most powerful clues came from the hardness of a given rock. Specific rock types were thus assumed to
have formed at characteristically different rimes, the softest rocks having formed the most recently. This crude type of dating was first used to understand the way mountains were formed, In the mid-1700's it was thought thai there were three distinct types of mountains
in Europe, each formed by a different type of rock and each created at a different time. According to this theory, the oldest were the Alps, which had interior cores composed of very hard, crystalline rocks (such as granite, schist, or basalt). These mountains were   called Primitive. Sitting on the flanks of the Primitive mountains were younger, smaller, Secondary mountains composed of layered sedimentary rocks such as limestone. They were often rich with fossils and intermediate in hardness.



4. According to the passage, mining engineers were the first to realize that
(A) various types of rock were scattered across Earth's surface
(B) rocks in different locations could be related by their age
(C) there were wide differences in the appearance of different types of rocks
(D) older rocks were better suited for industrial use
请问这题为何选B呢

8. According to the passage, early geologists believed which of the following about Primitive mountains?
(A) They had interior cores of sandstone and mudstone,
(B) They contained a large number of fossils.
(C) They had been formed during the same limited period in Earth's history.
(D)They were smaller than the Tertiary mountains.
这题又为何选C

Paragraph 5: Modern architectural forms generally have three separate components
comparable to elements of the human body; a supporting skeleton or frame, an outer skin
enclosing the interior spaces, equipment, similar to the body’s vital organs and systems. The
equipment includes plumbing, electrical wiring, hot water, and air-conditioning. Of course in
early architecture—such as igloos and adobe structures—there was no such equipment, and
the skeleton and skin were often one.

8. Which of the following correctly characterizes the relationship between the human
body and architecture that is described in paragraph5?
○Complex equipment inside buildings is the one element in modern architecture that
resembles a component of the human body.
○The components in early buildings were similar to three particular elements of the
human body.
○Modern buildings have components that are as likely to change as the human body is.
○In general, modern buildings more closely resemble the human body than earlier
buildings do.

TPO4中的
Deer Populations of the Puget Sound

Paragraph 2: Nearly any kind of plant of the forest understory can be part of a deer's diet. Where the forest inhibits the growth of grass and other meadow plants, the black-tailed deer browses on huckleberry, salad, dogwood, and almost any other shrub or herb. But this is fair-weather feeding. What keeps the black-tailed deer alive in the harsher seasons of plant decoy and dormancy? One compensation for not hibernating is the built-in urge to migrate. Deer may move from high-elevation browse areas in summer down to the lowland areas in late fall. Even with snow on the ground, the high bushy understory is exposed; also snow and wind bring down leafy branches of cedar, hemlock, red alder, and other arboreal fodder.
2.  It can be inferred from the discussion in paragraph 2 that winter conditions
○ Cause some deer to hibernate
○ Make food unavailable in the highlands for deer
○ Make it easier for deer to locate understory plants
○Prevent deer from migrating during the winter

答案给的是第三个，why?
我的疑问是，第三个答案是最后一句话的内容，但是这没有任何信息告诉我们这是 winter啊。
再退一步，即使这是winter,那也没有 easier 这种比较的出现啊，跟谁比呢？
谢谢解答

Paragraph 1: Since 1980, the use of wind to produce electricity has been growing rapidly. █In 1994 there were nearly 20,000 wind turbines worldwide, most grouped in clusters called wind farms that collectively produced 3,000 megawatts of electricity. █Most were in Denmark (which got 3 percent of its electricity from wind turbines) and California (where 17,000 machines produced 1 percent of the state’s electricity, enough to meet the residential needs of a city as large as San Francisco). █In principle, all the power needs of the United States could be provided by exploiting the wind potential of just three states—North Dakota, South Dakota, and Texas. █

13. Look at the four squares █that indicate where the following sentence could be added to the passage.
Some companies in the power industry are aware of this wider possibility and are planning sizable wind-farm projects in states other than California.
Where would the sentence best fit?
Click on a square █to add the sentence to the passage.

TP06中的infantile amnesia第三段
“Demonstrations of infants’ and toddlers' long-term memory have involved their repeating motor activities that they had seen or done earlier，such as reaching in the dark for objects, putting a bottle in a doll’s mouth, or pulling apart two pieces of a toy. The brain’s level of physiological maturation may support these types of memories, but not ones requiring explicit verbal descriptions.”

What does paragraph 3 suggest about long-term memory in children?

为什么选Children’s long-term recall of motor activities increases when such activities are accompanied by explicit verbal descriptions。
而不是Maturation of the frontal lobes of the brain is important for the long-term memory of motor activities but not verbal descriptions．
呢？
最后一句不是说大脑生理成熟的程度足以帮助他们记得这些特殊事件，并非需要明确说明吗？


谢谢啊~
