老师您好能否帮我讲解下下面这个文章考试时该如何读，我读完这种文章压根不知道在说什么，只知道在讲ocean basin形成机制的几种理论。No very satisfactory account of the mechanism that caused the formation of the ocean basins has yet been given. The traditional view supposes that the upper mantle of the earth behaves as a liquid when it is subjected to small forces for long periods and that differences in temperature under oceans and continents are sufficient to produce convection in the mantle of the earth with rising convection currents under the mid-ocean ridges and sinking currents under the continents. Theoretically, this convection would carry the continental plates along as though they were on a conveyor belt (conveyor belt: n. 传送带) and would provide the forces needed to produce the split that occurs along the ridge. This view may be correct: it has the advantage that the currents are driven by temperature differences that themselves depend on the position of the continents. Such a back-coupling, in which the position of the moving plate has an impact on the forces that move it, could produce complicated and varying motions. On the other hand, the theory is implausible because convection does not normally occur along lines, and it certainly does not occur along lines broken by frequent offsets (an abrupt bend in an object by which one part is turned aside out of line) or changes in direction, as the ridge is. Also it is difficult to see how the theory applies to the plate between the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and the ridge in the Indian Ocean. This plate is growing on both sides, and since there is no intermediate trench, the two ridges must be moving apart. It would be odd if the rising convection currents kept exact pace with them. An alternative theory is that the sinking part of the plate, which is denser than the hotter surrounding mantle, pulls the rest of the plate after it. Again it is difficult to see how this applies to the ridge in the South Atlantic, where neither the African nor the American plate has a sinking part. Another possibility is that the sinking plate cools the neighboring mantle and produces convection currents that move the plates. This last theory is attractive because it gives some hope of explaining the enclosed seas, such as the Sea of Japan. These seas have a typical oceanic floor, except that the floor is overlaid by several kilometers of sediment. Their floors have probably been sinking for long periods. It seems possible that a sinking current of cooled mantle material on the upper side of the plate might be the cause of such deep basins. The enclosed seas are an important feature of the earth’s surface, and seriously require explanation because, in addition to the enclosed seas that are developing at present behind island arcs, there are a number of older ones of possibly similar origin, such as the Gulf of Mexico, the Black Sea, and perhaps the North Sea.

如果n是19的话n+1才是20。那a20不是应该等于a19+19吗，为什么会加20呢？条件二给的公式不是说a(n+1)=a(n)+n吗？我算的是1+2+...+19+19这样

@陆旭老师 第39题要怎么做呢？

@唐小梅老师 这道题用您的方法咋做呀？

@英吉老师 第715题的b选项为啥不算说了原文解释的对立面。是不是因为它主要讲的是electricity不是fossil fuel？ e选项这个地方算是要知道的常识吗？因为当时排除掉e选项就是因为自己脑袋里根本没有这个概念，感觉与原文无关。但是一旦听你说了，接受了说这个设定我是能理解的。所以以后再碰到这种不确定的情况，就默认判定这个选项是可行的，然后再去结合文章看是否支持原文逻辑链吗？

@陆旭老师 当出现overlapping info时，应该用matrix比较好还是用韦恩图比较好？

@英吉老师 如果这道题选了a，算是犯了什么错误？

请问老师这道题是不是答案给错了？不应该是4+8+12+...+200求和吗
