11.Consequently,tunas donot needto suckin water.转折architecture|Modern architecturalforms generallyhave threeseparate componentscomparable toelementsof thehuman body;a supportingskeleton orframe,an outerskin enclosingthe interiorspaces,equipment,similar tothe bodys vitalorgans andsystems..The equipmentincludes一plumbing,electrical wiring,hot water,and air-conditioning.|Of coursein earlyarchitecture一such asigloos andadobe structuresthere wasno suchequipment,and theskeleton and skinwere oftenone..
12.However,some modernarchitectural designs,such asthose usingfolded platesofconcreter orair-inflated structures,are againunifying skeletonandskin.上下文的指代关系water inthe desertBasalticrocks alsosupport springs,notably atthe JabalAl-Arab onthe Jordan-Syria border.■Endogenous Riversoften donot reachthe seabut draininto inlandbasins,where thewaterevaporates oris lostintheground.«Most desertstreambeds arenormally dry,but theyoccasionallyreceive largeflows ofwaterandsediment.BParagraph5:Deserts containlarge amountsof groundwaterwhen comparedto theamountsthey holdin surfacestores suchas lakesand rivers.-But onlya smallfraction ofgroundwaterenters thehydrological cycle-feeding theflows ofstreams,maintaining lakelevels,and beingrecharged orrefilled throughsurface flowsand rainwater.
