閱讀下列短文, 從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中, 選出最佳選項。
The ocean bottom, a region nearly 2.5 times greater than the total land area of the earth, is even today largely unexplored. Until about a century ago, the deep ocean floor was completely inaccessible and hidden beneath waters averaging over 3,600 meters deep. Totally without light and in the case of intense pressures hundreds of times greater than at the earth’s surface, the deep-ocean bottom is a strange environment to humans, in some way as frightening and remote as the outer space.
Although researchers have taken samples of deep-ocean rocks for over a century, the first detailed global study of the ocean bottom did not actually start until 1969, with the beginning of the National Science Foundation’s Deep Sea Drilling Project(DSDP). Using techniques first developed for the offshore oil and gas industry, the DSDP’s drill ship, the Glomar Challenger, was able to maintain a steady position on the ocean’s surface and drill very deep waters, taking samples of rocks from the ocean floor.
The Glomar Challenger completed 96 voyages in a 15-year research program that ended in November 1983. During this time, it sailed 600,000 kilometers and took almost 20,000 samples of rocks around the world. Those samples have allowed geologists to reconstruct what the planet looked like hundreds of millions of years ago and to make out what it will probably look like millions of years in the future. Today, largely on the strength of evidence gathered during the Glomar Challenger’s voyages, nearly all earth scientists agree on the theories of plate tectonics (構造學) and continental drift that explain many of the geological processes.
The sample of rocks drilled by the Glomar Challenger have also provided a climatic record stretching back hundreds of millions of years. The information of past climatic change can be used to predict the future climate.
1.What does the underlined word “inaccessible” in paragraph1 mean?
A. unrecognizable B. unreachable
C. unusable D. unreasonable
2.Which of the following is TRUE about the Glomar Challenger?
A. It is a military submarine.
B. It is used to develop tourism.
C. It has gone on over 100 voyages.
D. It made its first DSDP voyage in 1969.
3.The Deep Sea Drilling Project was significant because it was _____.
A. the first detailed exploration of the ocean bottom
B. conducted by geologists from all over the world
C. supported entirely by the gas and oil industry
D. an attempt to find new sources of oil and gas

Buckingham Palace has a history that dates back over 500 years and has changed hands on numerous occasions, however, much of the building that remains standing today is from the original structure built in the early 1700's.
In the beginning Buckingham Palace was originally known as Buckingham House. However, in 1762 George III liked the house so much that he bought it for 28,000 and renamed it "The Queen's House". The reason for this was down to the fact that he bought the house to give to his wife Charlotte. Shortly after he did this, work soon began in order to remodel the house with the help of Sir William Chambers. This trend then continued with the accession of George IV in 1820 when he decided to reconstruct the house but he still used it for the same purpose that his father did.
One of the biggest physical changes to the house occurred several years later when the king had a change of mind. It was in 1826 that King George IV set about transforming the house into what it is known today, Buckingham Palace. He did this with the help of an architect known as John Nash.
The work that Nash carried out involved doubling the size of the main block through adding a new suite of rooms on the garden side facing the west. He then faced this with mellow Bath stone, which reflected the French neo-classical influence favored by George IV. Many of the rooms that Nash added still remain pretty much unchanged today.
The palace as it stands today acts as not only the London residence of Her Majesty the Queen but also the administrative headquarters of the Royal Household. It is in fact one of the few working royal palaces that remain in the world today. The state rooms are extensively used by the Queen as well as members of the royal family as a way of receiving and entertaining guests on state, ceremonial and official occasions.
1.George IV reconstructed Buckingham House probably to .
A. please his own wife
B. satisfy his son
C. sell at a good price
D. honor his old father
2.One of the biggest changes to Buckingham Palace took place in .
A. 1762 B. 1820 C. 1826 D. 1829
3.The last paragraph mainly tells us
A. how important Buckingham Palace is today
B. what Buckingham Palace is like today
C. some information of royal palaces in the world
D. how Buckingham Palace is used today
