The ocean bottom--a region nearly 2.5 times greater than the total
land area of the earth--is a vast frontier that even today is largely unexplored
and uncharted. Until about a century ago, the deep-ocean floor
was completely accessible, hidden beneath waters averaging over 3,600 【M1】______.
meters deep. Totally without light and subjected intense pressures 【M2】______.
hundreds of times greater than at the Earth’s surface, the deep-ocean
bottom is a hostile environment to humans, in some ways as forbidding
and remote as the void of out space. 【M3】______.
Therefore researchers have been taking samples of deep-ocean rocks 【M4】______.
and sediments for over a century, the first detailed global investigation of
the ocean bottom did actually start until 1968, with the beginning of the 【M5】______.
National Science Foundation’s Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP). Used 【M6】______.
techniques first developed for the offshore oil and gas industry, the
DSDP’s drill ship, the Glomar Challenger, was able to maintain a steady
position on the ocean’s surface and drill very deep waters, extracting【M7】______.
samples of sediments and rock from the ocean floor.
The Glomar Challenger’s core samples have allowed geologists to
reconstruct that the planet looked like hundreds of millions of years ago 【M8】______.
and to calculate what it will probably look like millions of years in the future.
Today largely on the strength of evidence gathered during the Glomar
Challenger’s voyages, nearly all earth scientists agree with the theories【M9】______.
of plate construction and continental drift that explain many of the
geological processes that shape on the Earth. 【M10】______.
【M4】
选项
答案
Therefore改成Although
解析
语篇逻辑错误。本题所在句子与上文之间无因果关系,因此therefore用在此处错误。该从句意为:一个世纪以来研究者一直在提取深海岩石和沉积物样本。主句意为:直到1968年,第一次详尽的全球范围的海底研究才真正开始。可以判断,两部分之间存在让步关系,故使用although合适。
