The average(平均的) temperature is around -50℃ in the winter months and Oymyakon has never recorded a temperature above 0℃ between October 25 and March 17.

Ⅳ.【主旨大意】 俄罗斯一个叫奥伊米亚康(Oymyakon)的村庄是地球上最冷的村庄,目前约有500人居住,每年有200多天温度低于0℃。
16.D 细节理解题。由第一段第二句“Oymyakon is in the Yakutia region in Russia and is known as the coldest human settlement on the earth.”可知, 奥伊米亚康作为地球上最寒冷的居住区而出名。
17.B 细节理解题。由第二段第一句“The village’s lowest temperature was recorded at the Oymyakon weather station and reached -67.7℃ in 1933.”可知, 该村的最低温度被记录在奥伊米亚康气象站, 1933年达到零下67.7℃。
18.B 细节理解题。由第三段第二、三句“This region is extremely cold because the arctic air is always sitting overtop of it.Warm ocean temperatures or daylight heating don’t influence the region.”可知,极寒的空气经常不受温暖的海洋温度或日光加热的影响,因此该地区一直处于极度寒冷的状态。
19.C 推理判断题。 由第四段第二句“Schools will be open if temperatures stay above -52℃.”可知,只要气温保持在-52℃以上,学校就会开课。由此推断, 在气温低于零下52℃时, 学校会放假, 学生就不必上学了。
20.D 推理判断题。由第四段最后一句“July is the village’s warmest month with the average temperature of 18.7℃ and has a record high of 34.6℃.”可知, 7月是该村最温暖的一个月, 平均气温为18.7℃, 由此推断7月可能是游览奥伊米亚康的最佳时间。
