【F1】
Petroleum is the largest source of liquid fuel, and, in spite of attempts to develop synthetic fuels, and the continued use of solid fuels, world consumption of petroleum products is about four times greater now than in 1940.
Crude petroleum oil from different oilfields is never exactly identical in composition. Although all petroleum is composed essentially of a number of hydrocarbons, they are present in varying proportions in each deposit, and the properties of each deposit have to be evaluated.【F2】
Samples are subjected to a series of tests in the laboratory, the object of which is largely to determine the correct processing methods to be adopted in each case.
Petroleum is not normally used today in the crude state.【F3】
The mixture of oils of which it is composed must be separated out into a number of products such as petrol, aviation spirit, kerosene, diesel oils and lubricants, all of which have special purpose.
The main method of separation used, in refineries is fractional distillation, although further processing is normally required to produce marketable petroleum products. The different hydrocarbons present in petroleum have different boiling temperatures, and the fractions can therefore be isolated according to their boiling temperatures. Petrol, for instance, is a mixture of the lower-boiling hydrocarbons, with boiling temperatures ranging from 100℃ to 400℃. Diesel oils on the other hand have boiling temperatures of upwards of 400℃.
【F4】
Distillation was originally carried out in batch—stills and, although this is still done for special purposes, the development of the pipe—still has revolutionized refinery processes, since it allows continuous vaporization and rectification of the fractions.
The pipe-still consists of a bricok-lined furnace, in which is fitted a battery of tubes, through which the crude oil is pumped. The oil is heated, and petrol vaporization occurs. The oil then enters the fractionating tower, where it is distilled by coming into contact with condensed vapor which has previously been evolved from the still. Fractions of different boiling ranges are drawn off at different points in the tower, or, in some plants, in a series of towers, each one distilling successively heavier fractions.
【F5】
The heavier distillates, such as gas oil, undergo various other processes, of which the most important is known as cracking.
In this process, they are heated to a temperature of about 550℃, as a result of which the heavier molecules are broken up, lighter oils such as petrol being produced. Catalytic cracking, in which silicon compounds are used as catalysts to aid the process of decomposition, gives higher octane petrols. These are widely used as motorcar fuels, since the high octane value reduces the tendency of the fuel to detonation.

答案
石油是最大的液体燃料源。尽管人们在竭力发展合成燃料,而且仍在使用固体燃料,但是当今世界上石油产品的总耗量仍然比1940年增加了大约3倍。
解析
该句中连词and连接了两个分句,第一句子是一个简单的系表结构的句子,而第二个句子是由in spite of引导的让步状语从句,因而是一个主从复合句。在这个状语从句中缺失主语部分,应采取增译法,将主语“人们”补上。在这个句子的主句部分有一个对比结构的句子,出现了…times…than…,times一词表示倍数,根据汉语的表达习惯应译为“比……增加……倍”。liquid“液体,流体,液体的,透明的”;synthetic“综合(性)的,合成的”。
