Question

Wind is the great maker of waves. There are exceptions (例外), such as the tidal (潮汐的) waves sometimes caused by earthquakes under the sea. But the waves most of us know are caused by winds blowing over the sea .
Now let’s learn some physical (自然地理學的) things about it. A wave has height, from low point to high point . It has length (長度)--the distance from this high point to that of the following wave. The period of the wave means the time it takes for succeeding high points to pass a fixed point. None of these things stays the same--for all depend upon (依靠)the wind, upon the depth (深度) of the water and many other matters.
The water that makes up a wave does not advance with it across the sea. Each drop of water turns around in a little circle with the passing of the wave, but returns very nearly to its original position (原先的位置). And it is lucky that this is so. For if the huge groups of water that make up a wave really moved across the sea, sailing would be impossible. If we want to find the speed of a wave, we may use the following way : Speed =" wavelength" × frequency (頻率).
Here, wavelength is the distance between two high points , frequency means the number of cycles per second

1.根據文章內容第一段Wind is the great maker of waves. There are exceptions (例外), such as the tidal (潮汐的) waves sometimes caused by earthquakes under the sea.可知答案A和B是錯誤的，而根據文章內容第一段But the waves most of us know are caused by winds blowing over the sea .可知答案D是錯誤，故選答案為C
2.根據文章內容第三段內容The water that makes up a wave does not advance with it across the sea，可知答案A是錯誤的；根據文章內容第三段內容Each drop of water turns around in a little circle with the passing of the wave, but returns very nearly to its original position (原先的位置).可知答案為B項的說法是正確的，同時C項的說法是錯誤的；又根據文章第二段的內容. A wave has height, from low point to high point，可知答案為D項說明的內容是錯誤的，故選B
3.根據文章內容第三段的內容If we want to find the speed of a wave, we may use the following way : Speed =" wavelength" × frequency (頻率).根據題目中所給的信息，可知答案為D
4.根據文章整體的內容和文章內容第二段內容Now let’s learn some physical (自然地理學的) things about it.可知答案為C，介紹的地理相關知識，自然是來自科學雜志。
