Containing 72% of the earth fresh water, 90% of the world’s ice, with wind blowing as far as 185 miles per hour, and with temperatures plunging to 100 degrees be low zero, Antarctica’s landscape is breathtaking, its climate life-taking. For centuries, Antarctica was almost unknown. In 1838, the Unites States Navy commissioned Lieutenant Charles Wilkies to explore the South Pole near the centre of Antarctica. He saw enough of Antarctica to prove it a continent. In 1911, a British team and a Norwegian team had a race to the South pole. Five Norwegians reached pole first and returned home. The British party froze to death.

Antarctica remains full of mysteries and contradictions. Scientists have uncovered plant, tree, and animal fossils of species originally found only in warm climates. Today there are only lichens, mosses, three flowering plants, one herb, and two grasses that grow where the ice recedes in the December summer. What triggered the metamorphosis? No one knows.

Antarctica has the coldest temperature (-126,9 degrees Fahrenheit) ever recorded. It contains enough ice to cover the United States with a layer two miles thick. In this, the coldest place on the earth is Mt. Erebus, an active volcano with a steaming, 1.000 degrees centigrade, bubbling lake of lava in the middle.

Câu 27: Why did the British and the Norwegians have a contest?

A. to explore an unknown continent.

B. to prove that the South Pole exists.

C. to measure their ability to resist cold.

D. to determine which group would reach the South Pole first.

Câu 28: What is the main idea of paragraph 1?

A. A visit to the South Pole is risky and expensive.

B. Few plants and animals survive in the bitter cold of Antarctica.

C. Antarctica is a continent filled with beauty and peril.

D. Cold, snow and ice are always present in Antarctica.

Câu 29: If Antarctica’s climate would become warm, what would most likely happen?

A. Many places would be colder than they are now.

B. Some places would be colder and other warmer than they are now.

C. Antarctica would have a more tropical climate with palm trees.

D. Coastal areas would become flooded.

Câu 30: Warm-weather species no longer live in Antarctica because

A. of an unsolved mystery. B. the summers are too short.

C. the glaciers changed the climate. D. researchers discovered plant fossils.

Câu 31: Where is Mt. Erebus located?
