Question

【题目】 Finally, a huge wall of ice blocked our plan. Soon the Nautilus itself was stuck in the ice. The Nautilus dived to about eight hundred meters and travelled quickly under the icecap. Conseil and I looked for fish, but there were none. We travelled under the ice for two days.

On the third day, we rushed onto the deck to see water and a small island. The crew caught some fish in their nets and we ate some for dinner. Captain studied his instruments and announced we were at the South Pole. We all cheered. Then the Nautilus dived and began its return voyage. Suddenly I felt a shock. The Nautilus had stopped moving and was leaning to one side. It was stuck under an iceberg. Captain Nemo was clearly worried. We were in a kind of tunnel with ice above and below us. Both ends of the tunnel were blocked with more ice. Captain Nemo told us there were two ways of dying in that situation. We had enough air for two days, but we might be crushed before that. Captain Nemo and his crew used a long pole and found we were lying on ten meters of ice.

The men began to cut the ice under Nautilus. It would take five nights and four days to remove enough ice to free the Nautilus. However, there was only enough air for two days.

本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了核潜艇the Nautilus在冰川下航行的一些经历。去程相对顺利，我们在第三天捕到了鱼，在到达南极之后，我们在返程过程中陷入冰川，情况十分危急。

【1】细节理解题。根据文章第二段第二句“The crew caught some fish in their nets”可知，冰川下是有鱼的，故选C。

【2】细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The Nautilus had stopped moving and was leaning to one side”可知，The Nautilus由于陷在冰川下面了，所以整个the Nautilus不仅停止前进，而且向一边倾斜，故选C。

【3】细节理解题。根据文章第二段倒数两句话“Captain Nemo… but we might be crushed before that”可知在这种情形下，我们有两种死法，虽然有两天量的氧气，但是在用光之前，我们会被压死。故选B。

【4】细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句“Captain Nemo and his crew used a long pole and found we were lying on ten meters of ice. ”可知，是用a long pole得知在他们下面有多少冰的，故选B。
