The Sea
What do you know about the sea? We know that it looks very pretty when the sun is shining on it. We also know that it can be very rough when there is a strong wind. What other things do we know about it?
The first thing to remember is that the sea is very big. When you look at the map of the world you will find there is more water than land. The sea covers three quarters of the world.
The sea is also very deep in some places. It is not deep everywhere(every + where). Some parts of the sea are very shallow. But in some places the depth (与deep有关)of the sea is very great. There is one spot, near Japan, where the sea is nearly 11 kilometers (kilo + meters) deep! The highest mountain in the world is about 9 kilometers (kilo + meters) high. If that mountain were put into the sea at that place, there would be 2 kilometers of water above it! What a deep place!

3.Translate the following passage into Chinese (翻译)(来自2002年版职称英语练习资料，C级)
你了解大海吗?我们知道，当太阳的光辉洒在海面上时，大海看起来非常美丽。我们也知道，当起大风的时候，大海也会变得狂暴。除此之外，我们还知道什么呢?
首先要记住的事情是大海很大。你查看世界地图就会知道海洋比陆地的面积大。海洋覆盖了地球的四分之三。
在某些地方，海洋也很深，但不是所有的地方都深。有些地方的海洋非常浅，但有些地方海洋深的可怕。在日本附近的一个地方，还差不多有11公里深，而世界上最高的山不过才9公里高。如果那山被放进这最深的海中，将会有两公里深的水覆盖在它的上面。多深的海洋啊!
