参考解析
解析：本题考查的是对近义短语的辫析。本句话的意思是“这个金矿是被偶然发现的”。四个选项中，A选项by air的意思是“乘飞机，通过航空的方式“，一般用于描述交通方式。C选项at large的意思是“未被捕，普遍”，如：The tiger is still at large．老虎还没有被捉到。D选项at ease的意思是“自由自在，放松”，如：She felt completely at ease with Tom．她和汤姆在一起时感到十分放松。B选项by chance的意思与by accident一样，表示“偶然，意外”，因此B选项符合题意。

Passage FourArchimedes was a famous Greek mathematician and scientist. He was born around 287 BC and he died in the year 212 BC.Archimedes is most well-known for one specific idea that he came up with. "Archimedes's Principle" states that a solid object which is immersed in a liquid is pushed up by a force which is equal to the weight of the water that the object moves. For example, if you put a piece of wood and a piece of gold the same size in water, only the wood will float. Both the wood and gold move the same amount of water, but the wood weighs less than this water, while the gold weighs more.It is believed that Archimedes discovered this principle when the king of Syracuse asked him to solve a problem. The king wanted to know if his crown was pure gold or a mixture of gold and silver. The king, of course, did not melt his crown to find out. The idea came to Archimedes as he lowered himself into his bath. He noticed how the water spilled out of the tub. He decided to use the same idea for the crown. He knew that a gold crown immersed in water would weigh more than one made of silver. The experiment was done and the goldsmith was proved guilty of trying to cheat the king.48. A good title for the selection is______.A. ArchimedesB. Archimedes's PrincipleC. A Gold and Silver CrownD. The King of Syracuse
From this selection we may conclude that the king's crown______.A. moved less water than pure gold of the same sizeB. moved more water than pure gold of the same weightC. moved more water than pure gold of the same sizeD. moved less water than pure gold of the same weight
