It's common knowledge that each summer, more and more of the ice melts leaving the dark waters of the ocean uncovered – a process that accelerates global warming by reducing the amount of solar radiation reflected back into space. Now it turns out that the surviving sea ice is also becoming darker and less reflective. The cause of the darkening, is partly due to thinning ice and the formation of open water fissures and partly because in the warmer air, ponds of liquid water from on the surface of the ice.The melting and darkening of the Arctic major factor in climate change. At the end of summer 2012, Arctic sea ice extent hit a record low. Some recent predictions suggest the Arctic Ocean could have no ice left at the end of each of each summer by 2030. Q1.

Answer 1

Answer:

sorry this passage is full of confusion

Answer 2

After reading the following paragraph carefully, the option that can be considered the most appropriate is chosen below:

Question 1: Arctic ice is losing its

• Coldness
• Mass
• Reflective sheen
• All of these
• Clear selection

Reflective sheen is the correct option. The very first line of this paragraph states this.

Question 2: Find the antonym of the word ‘absorbed’ from the given paragraph.

• Melt
• Diminishing
• Reflected
• Thinning

Reflected is the correct option. Absorbed and reflected are antonyms. "solar radiation reflected back into space."

Question 3: Find the synonym of the word ‘shine' from the paragraph.

• global
• sheen
• fissure
• radiation

Sheen is the correct option. Sheen and shine have similar meanings. "Arctic ice is losing its reflective sheen."

Question 4: At the end of summer 2012, Arctic sea ice extent hit a record high. True or false.

The answer is false. At the end of 2012, Arctic sea ice extent hit a record low, and not high as given in this statement.

Question 5: The cause of darkening is

• thinning ice formation of open water fissures
• formation of ponds of liquid water on the surface of ice
• All of these
• Clear selection​

All of these is the correct option. The darkening is caused by two major reasons. Thinning ice formation of open water fissures and formation of ponds of liquid water on the ice surface as well.

1. Arctic ice is losing its Reflective sheen.
2. The antonym of the word ‘absorbed’ from the given paragraph is Reflected.
3. The synonym of the word ‘shine' from the paragraph is Sheen.
4. At the end of summer 2012, Arctic sea ice extent hit a record high. False.
5. The cause of darkening is Thinning ice formation of open water fissures and Formation of ponds of liquid water on the surface of ice.
