Have you ever noticed the colour of the water in a river or stream after a heavy rainfall? What do you think caused this change in colour? It is soil that has been washed into the river from the riverbank or from t}le nearby fields.

Components of Soft

Soil is made up of a number of layers(層),each having its own distinctive colour and texture.The upper layer is known as the litter.It acts like a blanket.limiting temperature changes and reducing water loss.The topsoil layer is made up of small particles of rock mixed with rotten plant and animal matter called humus(腐殖質(zhì)),which is black and gives the topsoil its dark colour.This layer is usually rich in nutrients,oxygen,and water.Below the topsoil is the subsoil,a layer that contains more stones mixed with only small amounts of organic matter.This layer is lighter in colour because of the lack of humus.Beneath the soil lies a layer of bedrock.

Soil forms from the bottom up.Over time bedrock is attacked by rain, wind,frost, and snow.It is gradually broken down into smaller particles in a process called weathering.Plants begin to grow,and rotten materials enrich the topsoil.Most of the soil in Eastern Canada.for example.Was formed from weathered rock that was exposed when the ice disappeared l2.000 years ag0.

Water Beneath the Soil

Surface water collects and flows above the ground in lakes.ponds.a(chǎn)nd rivers.Once in the soil or rock,it is called groundwater.Gravity pulls groundwater through the soil in a process called percolation(滲透).Eventually the water reaches a layer called the water table.Under this is bedrock through which water cannot percolate.

As water percolates downward,it dissolves organic matter and minerals from the soil and carries them to deeper layers.This causes a serious problem because plants require these nutrients for growth.

Soil pH

Soil can be acidic.neutral.or basic.The pH of the soil is determined by the nature of the rock

from which it was formed.a(chǎn)nd by the nature of t}le plants that grow and rot in it.

The acidity of rain and snow can lower the pH of the groundwater that enters the soil.By burning fossil fuels such as coal,oil and gasoline,humans have been contributing to higher levels of acidity in many soils.When fossil fuels are burned.gases are released into the air and then fall back to earth as acid rain.Acid soil increases出e problem of carrying nutrients to lower soil levels.As nutrients are removed,soil is less fertile.Plants grow more slowly in acidic soil,and also become easily attacked by diseases.

67.The layer of soil that provides necessary nutrients for plant growth is called.

A.1itter    B.topsoil    C.humus D.subsoil

68.According to the text.which of the following is NOT true?

A.Soil forms from weathered rock on the earth surface.

B.The deeper layer of soil is darker in colour than t}le surface soil.

C.Air pollution is partially responsible for acid soil.

D.Groundwater tends to carry away nutrients for plant growth.

69.We can infer from the passage that the water table lies       .

A.between the topsoil layer and the subsoil layer

B.in the subsoil layer above bedrock

C.between the subsoil layer and bedrock

D.in the bedrock layer beneath the subsoil

70.The underlined word “dissolve” is used to express the idea that organic matter and minerals from soil are          .

A.rushed away into the river

B.cleaned and purified by water

C.destroyed and carried away by water

D.mixed with water and become part of it

Every person leaves a footprint. That’s what I learnt when I started to work as a private investigator 10 years ago.People pay restaurant bills with their bank card,check into hotels or travel around. In every case,they leave a trace.And because of this,I’m able to track them down even when they don’t want to be found.

The first thing I do when I want to find out where someone is staying is to go to the neighbourhood where he used to live.It’s human nature to tell stories―which is why neighbours will tell me all they know when I ring at their houses.Sometimes,someone even talks about his friend’s dishonesty.Then I produce a pattern of my subject’s life:if he likes to have a holiday in Spain or in Italy,if he prefers two- or three- star hotels and where he might hide his assets(資產(chǎn)).When I’ve got this life pattern,I start my rescarch.

Nine times out of l0,I find the people I’m looking for.I once investigated a lorry supplier who owed £500,000 to a subcontractor(分包商).The subcontractor wanted to find out if it was worth bringing charges against the supplier.I found out the supplier had moved assets to his son,who founded a new company offering the same product.It was a11 done within the law.There was no money to be got from that operation.

However, I asked the son if I could speak to his father and he told me that his parent was on a long holiday in Spain and wouldn’t be back for a while.It didn’t take me long to find out that the father wasn’t in Spain.

I went back to the son and this time he told me that his father might be in Bulgaria,and I found him doing winter sports in a beautiful mountain area.He was 1iving in a big house on a 1arge piece of land he had bought for є 400,000.This was exactly the kind of asset my customer was loooking for.

52.We learn from the text that a private investigator is one who_______.

    A.follows people reports on what they do

    B.helps people start businesses

    C.gives advice to people about the law

    D.settles arguments between companies

53.Why does the author visit the place where his subject used to stay?

    A.To find out hi hidden assets.

    B.To gather information about him.

    C.To discover why he is dishonest.

    D.To find out where he spends his holiday.

54.The lorry supplier moved his assets to his son in oder to______.

    A.pass on his debt to his son

    B.double the business of his company

    C.le this son take over his lorry business

    D.prevent paying back the money he owed

55.We may infer from the text that the subcontractor might______.

    A.bring charges against the lorry supplier’s son

    B.give up hope of settling the debt

    C.sell the big house in Bulgaria

    D.get his money back
