They are both places with very cold temperatures and few people live there. However, the North and South Poles are not much alike as people may imagine.The North Pole has no land, only thick ice. Temperatures seldom go above 32， at which water turns into ice. Most of the time, it stays below zero. In winter temperatures are usually as low as 30.Although conditions were very poor, people tried for many centuries to reach the North Pole. About 100 years ago, two men, Robert Peary and Mathew Henson, were able to get to this environment full of troubles and difficulties. They reached the North Pole on March 8, 1909. It was really a hard trip for them.There are few things more dangerous than crossing the Arctic(北极圈) on foot. People who stayed there may face many problems: very cold temperatures, sudden storms, and even hunger. Most of the area is uninhabited. Few people can live in such a difficult place.People might think that with such low temperatures for most of the year, the ice would be thick and hard. However, this is not true in the Arctic. The movement of the ocean water under the ice may often cause many different changes on the surface. Sometimes the ice breaks into two opening lanes of water(水道) called “leads”. Anyone who falls into a lead can be frozen to death in a few minutes.()1.This passage is probably from_Aa book review Ba science bookCa school report Da computer magazine()2.According to the passage, what happened about 100 years ago?ATwo men succeeded in getting to the North Pole.BTemperatures in the North Pole went above 32.CThe environment in the North Pole suddenly became worse.DThe North Pole changed into thick ice because of the temperatures.()3.What does the underlined word “uninhabited” probably mean in Chinese?A气候恶劣的 B充满危险的C困难重重的 D无人居住的()4.The reason for the ice to break into two opening lanes of water is_Athat the temperature suddenly drops Bthat the water under the ice is frozenCthat the ocean water under the ice moves Dthat the surface is covered with lots of ice()5.What does this passage mainly talk about?AThe thick ice in the North Pole.BA difficult trip to the North Pole.CThe real situation in the North Pole.DThe differences between the North Pole and the South Pole.教师详解详析.15CBABD610DCABC.1.B推理判断题。本文讲述的是关于南北极的知识，这是关于科学方面的。故选B。2A细节理解题。由短文第三段第二句“About 100 years ago, two men, Robert Peary and Mathew Henson, were able to get to this environment full of troubles and difficulties.”可知，两个人成功地到达了北极。故选A。3D词义推测题。由后文“Few people can live in such a difficult place.”可知，很少有人可以住在如此恶劣的地方。从而可推知此
