句子简化分类练习50句 侯燕华句子简化题分类练习1. 对比1. If the pores are large, the water in them will exist as drops too heavy for surface tension to hold, and it will drain away; but if the pores are small enough, the water in them will exist as thin films, too light to overcome the force of surface tension holding them in place; then the water will be firmly held.Which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in the passage? Incorrect choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information. (1)A. Surface tension is not strong enough to retain drops of water in rocks with large pores but it strong enough to hold on to thin films of water in rocks with small pores. B. Water in rocks is held in place by large pores and drains away from small size pores through surface tension. Water is held和large poresC. Small pores and large pores both interact with surface tension to determine whether a rock will hold water as heavy drops or as a thin film. D. If the force of surface tension is too weak to hold water in place as heavy drops, the water will continue to be held firmly in place as a thin film when large pores exist. Water is held和large pores 2. Many ecologists now think that the relative long-term stability of climax communities comes not from diversity but from the “patchiness” of the environment; an environment that varies from place to place supports more kinds of organisms than an environment that is uniform.Which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in the passage? Incurred choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information.(4)A. Ecologists now think that the stability of an environment is a result of diversity rather than patchiness. B. Patchy environments that vary from place to place do not often have high species diversity. C.

Incorrect choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information.(2)A.

Though at first they thought otherwise, paleontologists now agree that the animals in the Tommotian have body forms from which modern animals have descended. D. It is unclear whether the Tommotian fossils from the early Cambrian period represent unique body forms or whether they should be assigned to various modern animal groups. 原文强调but后面的观点, 5.

Which of the sentences below best expresses the essential information in the highlighted sentence in the passage? Incorrect choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information.A.

The punctuated equilibrium hypothesis developed by Stephen Jay Gould and Niles Eldredge was challenged in 1972. C. In 1972 Stephen Jay Gould and Niles Eldredge challenged gradualism by positing that change from one species to another cannot occur without a lengthy transition period. D. The punctuate equilibrium hypothesis, in opposition to gradualism, holds that transitions from one species to another occur in comparatively sudden burst. 7. But detractors maintain that the terraces could also have been created by geological activity, perhaps related to the geologic forces that depressed the Northern Hemisphere far below the level of the south, in which case they have nothing whatever to do with Martian water.

Incorrect choices change the meaning in important ways or leave out essential information. (2)A. But detractors argue that geological activity may be responsible for the water associated with the terraces. B.
