IV. Read the passage below and answer the questions. (1.5 point)
Antarctica is a snow-covered continent. The average temperature at the South Pole
is -50°C. Few plants and animals can live on the land because it is too cold for them.
There are a few scientists from different countries who live and work on special bases
in Antarctica. On midsummer’s day ( December 22nd ) there is daylight for 24 hours
and so during this period a few tourist ships and planes come to see this strange land.
But in the winter there is no daylight for months. It must be a terrible place during the
winter. The snow is always there- winter and summer- but in fact, little snow falls in
the year ( an average of 12 -20 cm). People say that it can be a beautiful place. At first,
it appears frightening but after a little time, some people fall in love with it.
