单选题Of the 197 million square miles making up the surface of the globe, 71 percent is covered by the interconnecting bodies of marine water; the Line Pacific Ocean alone covers half the Earth and (5) averages nearly 14,000 feet in depth. The continents-Eurasia, Africa, North America, South America, Australia, and Antarctica—are the portions of the continental masses rising above sea level. The submerged borders of the continental (10) masses are the continental shelves, beyond which lie the deepsea basins. The oceans attain their greatest depths not in their central parts, but in certain elongated fur- rows, or long narrow troughs, called deeps. These (15) profound troughs have a peripheral arrangement, notably around the borders of the Pacific and Indian oceans. The position of the deeps near the continental masses suggests that the deeps, like the highest mountains, are of recent origin, since (20) otherwise they would have been filled with waste from the lands. This suggestion is strengthened by the fact that the deeps are frequently the sites of world-shaking earthquakes. For example, the "tidal wave" that in April, 1946, caused wide- (25) spread destruction along Pacific coasts resulted from a strong earthquake on the floor of the Aleutian Deep. The topography of the ocean floors is none too well known, since in great areas the available (30) soundings are hundreds or even thousands of miles apart. However, the floor of the Atlantic is becoming fairly well known as a result of special surveys since 1920. A broad, well-defined ridge—the Mid-Atlantic ridge—runs north and (35) south between Africa and the two Americas, and numerous other major irregularities diversify the Atlantic floor. Closely spaced soundings show that many parts of the oceanic floors are as rugged as mountainous regions of the continents. (40) Use of the recently perfected method of echo sounding is rapidly enlarging our knowledge of submarine topography. During World War Ⅱ great strides were made in mapping submarine surfaces, particularly in many parts of the vast (45) Pacific basin. The continents stand on the average 2870 feet—slightly more than half a mile—above sea level. North America averages 2300 feet; Europe averages only 1150 feet; and Asia, the highest (50) of the larger continental subdivisions, averages 3200 feet. The highest point on the globe, Mount Everest in the Himalayas, is 29,000 feet above the sea; and as the greatest known depth in the sea is over 35,000 feet, the maximum relief (that is, (55) the difference in altitude between the lowest and highest points) exceeds 64,000 feet, or exceeds 12 miles. The continental masses and the deep-sea basins are relief features of the first order; the deeps, ridges, and volcanic cones that diversify (60) the sea floor, as well as the plains, plateaus, and mountains of the continents, are relief features of the second order. The lands are unendingly sub- ject to a complex of activities summarized in the term erosion, which first sculptures them in great (65) detail and then tends to reduce them ultimately to sea level. The modeling of the landscape by weather, running water, and other agents is appar- ent to the keenly observant eye and causes think- ing people to speculate on what must be the final (70) result of the ceaseless wearing down of the lands. Long before there was a science of geology, Shakespeare wrote "the revolution of the times makes mountains level./
