问题 综合

阅读下列材料,完成下列问题。(12分)

材料1:帕斯和悉尼降水量统计表 

城市1月7月年降水量
珀斯7193889
悉尼104841205
  材料2:澳大利亚1月和7月气压分布图

(1)澳大利亚大陆7月最高气压与1月最低气压的差值接近             百帕。(2分)

(2)图中M点在7月份时主要的风向为             ,并简述其成因              (4分)

(3)从风向、地形、洋流等因素,对比分析1月、7月表中两城市降水差异的原因。(6分)

答案

(1)22 (2分)

(2)东南风(2分); ①海陆热力性质差异 (2分) 

(3)(6分)1月为夏季:悉尼降水多于珀斯,悉尼受来自海洋上的偏南风影响,地处迎风坡,沿岸暖流影响,降水多;珀斯受副高控制,沿岸寒流影响,降水少。 7月为冬季:珀斯多于悉尼,珀斯受西风带影响,降水多;悉尼受来自大陆内部干燥的西北风影响,降水少。

本题考查世界区域地理和等值线的判读。第(1)题,根据等值线分布的基本规律“高于高值,低于低值”可直接计算。第(2)题,M地的气候成因类似于南亚季风的成因,7月为该地区的冬季,主要从海陆热力性质的差异角度分析当地的风向。第(3)题,结合两地的气候类型及其成因角度,从风向、地形、洋流方面逐一分析。

Today, we’ll talk about what other effects watching TV might produce on children. Children should be (1) a lot of television, many experts and parents agree, but there is at least one circumstance when it might be beneficial: (2) . A recent study conducted by Italian researchers found that children (3) immediately preceding and during blood tests experienced less pain than children whose mothers (4) during the procedure, or children whose mothers were present but (5) .
The research, led by Carlo Brown, MD, at the University of Siena, is published in the Archives of Disease in Childhood. (6) the study. None received any type of anesthesia; the children and their mothers (7) . Both the group whose mothers attempted to distract them from the blood tests and those whose mothers simply observed reported (8) than the group who watched cartoons. For that group, the levels of pain were less and the children were better able to (9) .
One of the possible explanations is that children might have (10) during the procedures, exacerbating their perception of pain. "The higher pain level reported by children during (11) shows the difficulty mothers have in interacting positively (12) in their children’s life," the authors write.
However, they stressed that (13) still provided benefits, noting that the children would (14) during the procedures. "Indeed, children state that having their parent present (15) when in pain," say the authors.
Another possibility offered for consideration is the notion that the (16) might release pain-quelling endorphins. Endorphins, (17) produced by the pituitary gland, resemble opiates in their ability to produce analgesia and a sense of well-being. In other words, they might (18) .
In any case, the study results suggest that health workers should (19) to watch television during painful procedures (20) .
