Certainly Newton considered some theoretical aspects of it in his writings, but he was reluctant to go to sea to further his work.For most people the sea was remote, and with the exception of early intercontinental travelers or others who earned a living from the sea, there was little reason to ask many questions about it, let alone to ask what lay beneath the surface. The first time that the question‘What is at the bottom of the oceans?’had to be answered with any commercial consequence was when the laying of a telegraph cable from Europe to America was proposed. The engineers had to know the depth profile of the route to estimate the length of cable that had to be manufactured. It was to Maury of the US Navy that the Atlantic Telegraph Company turned, in 1853, for information on this matter. In the 1840s, Maury had been responsible for encouraging voyages during which soundings were taken to investigate the depths of the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Later, some of his findings aroused much popular interest in his book The Physical Geography of the Sea.The cable was laid, but not until 1866 was the connection madepermanent and reliable. At the early attempts, the cable failed and whenit was taken out for repairs it was found to be covered in living growths,a fact which defied contemporary scientific opinion that there was nolife in the deeper parts of the sea.Within a few years oceanography was under way. In 1872 Thomson leda scientific expedition, which lasted for four years and brought homethousands of samples from the sea. Their classification and analysisoccupied scientists for years and led to a five-volume report, the lastvolume being published in 1895.The passage implies that the telegraph cable was built mainly_____________.所选答案： B. for businessconsiderations问题33得2 分，满分2 分It was ____________ that asked Maury for help in oceanographicstudies.所选答案： D. the company which proposed to lay anundersea cable问题34得2 分，满分2 分The aim of voyages Maury encouraged in the 1840s was___________.所选答案： C. to measure the depths of twooceans问题35得2 分，满分2 分‘Defied’in the 5th paragraph probably means ___________.所选答案： C. ‘challenged’问题36得2 分，满分2 分This passage is mainly about ___________.所选答案： A. the beginnings ofoceanography。
