　　If a man in a spaceship looked down at the earth, he would see mainly water. He might think that the earth was one giant ocean with little land.

　　Nearly seven-tenths of the earth's surface is covered by water. One ocean, the Pacific (太平洋), has an area of 63 million square miles.

　　Many years ago people thought that the land under all this water was flat. Now they know that this is not true. There are as many mountains under the sea as there are on the land.

At first, there was very little salt in the sea. The salt was brought into the, sea by rivers. It is possible to measure the age of the earth by measuring the amount of salt in the sea. Scientists can calculate how many years it took for this amount of salt to be carried from the land into the sea.

阅读下列短文，然后从每小题A、B、C、D四个选项中选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。

Dear Alice,

　　I just received your letter．And I was very surprised to know that you decided to drop out of school and wanted to be a model(模特)．

　　Being a model for a living is not easy．In fact, a famous person like me has a lot of problems that you couldn't see．I can't eat what I like, even though I'm very hungry．Keeping thin makes me look more beautiful on the stage because no one would like to see a heavy model．

　　Besides, I have to wear a heavy coat in the hot sun, in a swimming suit in the cold air．And practicing walking nicely every day is tiring for me．

　　You might say I made much money from modeling．But my dear niece(侄女), you have to know that money is nothing, knowledge is everything．School is important and everyone should go to school for a certain period of time．The longer they stay at school, the better they will be．Very often, I hope I can give up my job and continue my studies at school．But it is very difficult for me to go back to school again．I am too old to go back to school now．

　　You are a pretty young girl with a bright future．You only have one year to finish your studies in high school．A year is really short．Please do consider my words carefully before you decide．Of course, there is only one thing I care about, and that is your happiness．

Love,

Emma
