问题 The proposal to lay a telegraph cable from Europe to America made oceanographic studies take on a(n) ______.
It was ______ that asked Maury for help in oceanographic studies.

选项 A、the American Navy
B、some early intercontinental travelers
C、those who earned a living from the sea
D、the company which proposed to lay an undersea cable

答案D

解析 本题问的是谁向Maury请教海洋研究方面的问题。要答对这一题,必须看懂原文第四段第一句。这是一个强调句型(It was...that...),原文突出“向美国海军的Maury请教”。而题干也是一个强调句型,突出谁向Maury请教。理解本句的关键还在于学生掌握turned to...for...这个短语的用法。可见,答案为D。
