【題目】
Antarctica (南極洲) is the fifthlargest continenton Earth. It is also the coldest, windiest, driest and highest. It is an ice-covered place where no large plants grow, and no land animals live there. Antarctica covers an area of more than 13.6 million square kilometres. It is nearly twice the size of Australia, or one-and-a-half times the size of the United States of America.
Antarctica does not belong to one country, and it has no government. People visit Antarctica – usually as tourists, or to do scientific research – but no one lives there all the time.
Antarctica was the last place to be discovered. It is not certain who first saw Antarctica, but sailors began to map Antarctica’s coast from their ships in the 1800s. The first proved landing was in the mid-1890s.
Over the next few years, several men tried but failed to reach the South Pole, which is the Earth’s southernmost point.
Finally, a team led by Norwegian Roald Amundsen reached the South Pole in 1911. By then, countries around the world were becoming more and more interested in the frozen place, and soon Argentina, Australia, Chile, France, New Zealand, Norway and the United Kingdom had laid claim(聲稱)to parts of Antarctica.
As so many nations had made a claim to govern in Antarctica, it was clear that fighting might break out. Diplomats(外交官) from different countries wanted to stop a war from starting, so they began talking about a treaty for Antarctica. A treaty is a written agreement signed by two or more nations.
Several countries had already set up research stations in Antarctica where scientists could live and work. Most scientists worked during the summer months when it was not as cold as in winter. Scientists hoped a treaty would allow them to continue their work and to exchange information with scientists from other countries.

【1】What’s the area ofAntarctica?

【題目】 At the beginning of November 2018, the 35th Chinese Antarctic expedition(南極科考隊)set off for the polar(極地的)region. This time, one of their main tasks is to build China’s first permanent(永久的)Antarctic airport, Science and Technology Daily reported.
There are more than 20 airports in Antarctica, according to Global Times. But none of them belongs to China. China’s polar plane Xueying 601 has to take off and land at Russian airports.
The new airport will help Chinese aircraft take off and land in the South Pole. This will make it easier to transport scientific equipment and do research.
In order to be environmentally friendly, the airport will be small, said Sun Bo, the leader of the research team. However, this doesn’t make it easy to build the airport.
The site of the airport is an ice cap, which is a thick layer of ice. It covers the land like a quilt. But this “quilt” is always moving. Scientists have to find the slowest-moving part of the cap. You can hardly notice the movement of the ice in this area.
The next problem is the snow. The snow on the ice cap can be very thick. Also, it is as soft as cotton, which makes it hard to build a runway for airplanes. Scientists have to use a snow blower to get rid of the snow on the top of the cap. Then, they compact the rest of the snow with a road roller-like machine. In this way, the snow will be strong and hard enough to build a runway on the top of the cap.
【1】The main purpose of the 35th Chinese Antarctic expedition is to _________.
A.transport scientific equipmentB.do some research
C.set up a research stationD.build an airport
【2】What is the main idea of the third paragraph?

【3】The new airport in Antarctica will be small because _________.
A.there is no more areas in Antarctica
B.the plane is smaller than usual
C.we should try to protect the Antarctic environment
D.the snow is difficult to clear off
【4】The underlined word “compact” in Paragraph 6 refers to _________.
A.壓緊B.鏟除C.凍結D.融化
【5】Which of the following is not the difficulty of building a polar airport according to the passage?
A.The weather changes very often.B.The ice cap is always moving.
