Read the following passage carefully and choose the best answer from the given alternative.
Of the 197 square miles making up the surface of the globe, 71 percent is covered by inter-connecting bodies of water; the Pacific Ocean alone covers half the earth and averages about 14,000 feet in depth. The Continents - Eurasia, Africa, America, South America NOrth America, Australia and Antarctia - are the portion of the continental message above seal level. The submerged border of the continental message are the continental message are the continental shelves, beyond which lie the deep sea basins.
The oceans attain their greatest depths not in their central parts,but in certain elongated furrows,or long narrow troughs,called deeps.The position of the deeps near the continental masses suggests that the deeps,like the highest mountains,are of recent origin,since otherwise they would have been filled with waste from the lands.This suggestion is strengthened by the fact that the deeps are frequently the sites of world-shaking earthquakes.For example,the tidal wave that in April 1946 caused widespread destruction along Pacific coasts resulted from a strong earthquake on the floor of the Aleutian Deep.
The continents stand on an average 2870 feet-slightly more than half a mile-above sea level. The highest point on the globe, Mount Everest on the Himalayas, is 29,000 feet above the sea; and as the greatest known depth is over 35,000 feet, the maximum relief (that is, the difference in altitude between the lowest and highest points) exceeds 64,000 feet (more than 12 miles). The continental masses and the deep sea basins are relief features of the first order; the deeps, ridges and volcanic cones as well as the plains, plateau and mountains of the continents are relief features of the second order. The modeling of the landscape by weather, running water and other agents is apparent to the observant eye and causes thinking people to speculate on what must be the final result of the ceaseless wearing down of the lands Long before there was a science of geology, Shakespeare wrote, "the revolution of the times makes mountains level."
