The Arctic, Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans are the fur ceans we learned abut in the Gegraphy class．But nw we have a new cean．
On Wrld Ocean Day, which falls n June 8, the Natinal Gegraphic Sciety annunced it wuld recgnize(承认)the Suthern Ocean in Antarctica(南极洲).
Unlike the Arctic, Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans—which are defined by the cntinents(大陆)arund them, the Suthern Ocean is instead characterized by the Antarctic Circumplar Current(南极绕极流)．Accrding t Natinal Gegraphic, the Suthern Ocean includes mst f the waters surrunding Antarctica ut t 60 degrees suth latitude(纬度)．
“It’s reprted that it is the nly cean t tuch three thers and t cmpletely embrace(包围)a cntinent rather than being embraced by several cntinents,” Sylvia Earle, an American bilgist and ceangrapher, tld the Daily Mail．
Thse familiar with the Suthern Ocean knw it’s unlike any ther cean．“Anyne wh has been there will find it difficult t explain what’s s amazing abut it, but they’ll all agree that the glaciers(冰川)are bluer, the air clder, the muntains mre frightening and the landscapes mre attractive than anywhere else yu can g,” Seth Sykra-Bdie, a marine scientist, tld Natinal Gegraphic．
Because f the different envirnment f the Suthern Ocean, it’s hme t thusands f unique species(物种)．The cean als has wider eclgical effects．Fr example, humpback whales are knwn t feed n small shrimp ff Antarctica during the summer befre mving nrth t the warmer climates f Central and Suth America fr the clder winter mnths, accrding t the Daily Mail．
The Natinal Gegraphic Sciety hpes their revised(修订过的)maps will help the public learn mre abut the area, and it helps t encurage Suthern Ocean prtectin—but its imprtance is even beynd that．
“We think it’s very imprtant frm an educatinal standpint t bring attentin t the Suthern Ocean as a fifth cean,” Alex Tait, a gegrapher, tld the Pst．“S when students learn abut parts．f the cean wrld, they learn it’s an intercnnected cean, and they learn there are these areas called ceans that are really imprtant, and that there’s a special ne in the icy waters arund Antarctica.”
1．We can learn abut these ceans in the Gegraphy class EXCEPT _________.
A．the Indian Ocean B．the Pacific Ocean
C．the Suthern Ocean D．the Atlantic Ocean
2．Which f the fllwing is TRUE?
A．The Suthern Ocean is embraced by the cntinents.
B．The Suthern Ocean is much smaller than the thers.
C．A cntinent is embraced by the Suthern Ocean.
D．All the ceans are defined by the cntinents.
3What des the underlined wrd “unique” in the passage mean?
A．Special.B．Cmmn.C．Interesting.D．Ancient.
4．What’s the main idea f the last paragraph?
A．It’s imprtant t learn abut the Suthern Ocean.
B．It’s imprtant t knw that there are five ceans.
C．It’s necessary t mark the Suthern Ocean n the map.
D．It’s imprtant and necessary t prtect all the ceans.
