Ⅱ Read the following passages and then choose the correct answers.
A
After the first day on the job, the bank’s new manager realized he would be busier than he had been led to believe. Not only was he assisting the bank tellers with their work, but his new boss had decided to inundate him with other tasks like creating security systems, managing the bank’s deposits and refunds, securing loans, and maintaining the daily operations. The new manager was exhausted as he locked the bank up for the night.
(
A. Overload. B. Provide. C. Underwhelm. D. Offer.
B
Moisture is collected from the atmosphere by the action of cold. During the day, the powerful heat of the sun causes water to evaporate from the earth, forming moist vapor, that condenses into dew after sunset as temperature drop. Dew is more copious in the spring and autumn than at any other season. It is also more common in warm countries than in cold ones because of the sudden changes of temperature. Egypt abounds in dew all summer long; for the air is too hot to condense the vapors in the day-time and the dew never gathers into clouds and forms rain.
(
A. large drops of rain falling from the sky
B. water vapor that condenses in the clouds
C. small droplets that form when water vapor condenses
D. the water that makes up the lakes and puddles on earth
