It is soil that has been washed into the river from the riverbank or from the nearby fields.Components of SoilSoil is made up of a number of layers(层)，each having its own distinctive colour and texture.The upper l
21、ayer is known as the litter.It acts like a blanket, limiting temperature changes and reducing water loss.The topsoil layer is made up of small particles of rock mixed with rotten plant and animal matter called humus(腐殖质)，which is black and gives the topsoil its dark colour.This layer is usually rich
22、 in nutrients，oxygen，and water.Below the topsoil is the subsoil，a layer that contains more stones mixed with only small amounts of organic matter.This layer is lighter in colour because of the lack of humus.Beneath the soil lies a layer of bedrock.Soil forms from the bottom up.Over time bedrock is a
23、ttacked by rain, wind，frost, and snow.It is gradually broken down into smaller particles in a process called weathering.Plants begin to grow，and rotten materials enrich the topsoil.Most of the soil in Eastern Canada, for example, was formed from weathered rock that was exposed when the ice disappear
24、ed 12,000 years ago.Water Beneath the SoilSurface water collects and flows above the ground in lakes, ponds, and rivers.Once in the soil or rock，it is called groundwater.Gravity pulls groundwater through the soil in a process called percolation(渗透)Eventually the water reaches a layer called the wate

26、r basic.The pH of the soil is determined by the nature of the rock from which it was formed, and by the nature of the plants that grow and rot in it.The acidity of rain and snow can lower the pH of the groundwater that enters the soil.By burning fossil fuels such as coal，oil and gasoline，humans have

32、s usually rich in nutrients，oxygen，and water.”得知，表层土富含植物生长必需的营养。所以答案选B。2B正误判断题。根据文章Components of Soil 部分的第一段第四句“The topsoil layer is made up of small particles of rock mixed with rotten plant and animal matter called humus (腐殖质)，with is black and gives the topsoil its dark colour.”得知，表层土的颜色应该是最深的。B项
33、与该句矛盾，所以选B。3C推理判断题。根据文章Water Beneath the Soil部分的第一段最后两句“Eventually the water reaches a layer called the water table.Under this is bedrock through which water cannot percolate.”可推知，the water table位于底土(层)和基岩之间。所以答案选C。4D猜测词义题。由句意判断画线单词的意思。句意：水渗透到地底下，分解了土壤的有机物质及矿物质并且把它们带到较深的土层。这会导致严重问题，因为植物生长需要这些营养。所以答案
