Soru 23 : By the early 19th century, the eminent French zoologist Georges Cuvier believed he had found rock-solid evidence for the biblical great flood. While studying the geological strata around Paris, Cuvier found that fossils or sea creatures in one ancient layer of chalk were overlaid by those of land creatures. Then, just as abruptly, the layer above contained sea creatures again, with the top layer showing evidence of a vast and rapid inundation around present-day Paris. Cuvier regarded these sudden changes in the fossil record as evidence for sudden catastrophes which devastated life of Earth, of which the great flood was just the most recent example. Cuvier's discoveries, published in 1812, won support from a large number of eminent scientists such as the geologist Sir James Hall. However, there were a few who were deeply sceptical, pointing out that the evidence of a global flood was far from conclusive. Most sceptical of all were the followers of the Scottish geologist James Hutton. In 1795, he had published a two-volume text based on the view that the slow, steady processes that shape our planet today, such as erosion, were also crucially important in the distant past.
Cevap 23 : D
Çözüm 23 : Soru kökünde, Cuvier ile ilgili bir konu sorulmuştur. Burada ise soru kökünde doğrudan bizi parçanın belli kısmına yönlendirebilecek bir ifade yoktur. Parçada geçen “Cuvier regarded these sudden changes in the fossil record as evidence for sudden catastrophes which devastated life of Earth, of which the great flood was just the most recent example.” ifade anlam olarak “D” seçeneğinde geçen “…interpreted his fossil discoveries as indications of major catastrophes similar to the great flood…” ifadeleri anlam olarak birbirine yakındır. Seçenekte ve parçadaki cümlede geçen “interpret – regard” ve “indication-evidence”, kelimeleri de birbirinin yerine kullanılmıştır. Doğru cevap “D” şıkkıdır.

Soru 42 :

Why does sea water taste salty? It is a question that has been asked by countless people down the ages. And the answer seems straightforward: rain constantly erodes the surface of the Earth, washing a mix of natural chemicals into rivers and thence into the sea. The most water soluble and abundant of these just happen to taste salty. All very simple. Or is it? After all, erosion has been taking place for millions of years, dumping ever more of these salty compounds into the sea, yet the concentration is still far below the saturation level. So the real mystery is not why the sea tastes salty, but why it isn’t utterly packed with salt, and as lifeless as the Dead Sea. Here is another curious thing about our planet. Its atmosphere has existed for billions of years, and yet it still contains a mix of highly reactive gases like oxygen and methane. Why haven’t they settled down into a boring unreactive atmosphere like that of Mars or Venus?

 

According to the passage, the most important and fascinating question about salt and the sea is: -----?

A)  why do certain natural elements taste salty?

B)  how much salt is there in the sea

C)  how does the salt get to the sea

D)  when will the salt in the sea reach saturation level
