格陵兰岛位于欧洲北部。

这需要有一定的地理常识，下文并无提示。

2．B。

3．A。

如果你只从字面上看，认为Greenland是绿色的，而 Iceland被许多冰所覆盖，那么你就想错了。

根据下文可知它们的地理特征并不像它们的名字所描述的那样。

4．B。

There must be more people…表示肯定猜测，而如果直接用There are more people则太绝对化了。

5．D。

根据下文得知格陵兰岛大部分地区被冰所覆盖，所以是白色的。

6．D。

格陵兰岛的冰比世界最高的楼高。

故选high的比较级 higher。

7．C。

What about Iceland? 意为“冰岛(的地理环境和气候)又怎样呢?”。

8．A。

not so…as…表示“不如……”。

9．B。

因为冰岛拥有很多的温泉，冰也没有格陵兰岛的多，所以气温就没有格陵兰岛低。

10．C。

a lot more people相当于much more people。

意思是“冰岛的人口比格陵兰岛的多得多”。
