Near Greenland is another island. It’s smaller. Its name is Iceland. Do you think that Greenland is green and warm? Do you think Iceland is white with ice? If you think so, you are wrong. Not many people live on the big island of Greenland. There are more people in your hometown than in a ll of Greenland. That is because (因为) Greenland is not green. Greenland is white. Most of the Greenland is covered (覆盖着)with ice. The ice covering Greenland is higher than some of world’s tall buildings. What about Iceland? Is it colder than Greenland? No，it isn’t. Iceland has ice, but not so much ice as Greenland. Iceland has a lot of hot springs(温泉). They give out hot water and steam(蒸汽). So it is not as cold as Greenland. And there are a lot more people who live in Iceland.根据短文内容，判断正(T)误(F)。

He lives and works with his cormorants on this river. Cormorants are large black birds, about a metre long. They are good at ④fish because they can swim⑤⑥water. Their large feet are used to push them quickly through the water.Damin does not require nets to catch fish. That is done for him by his twelve cormorants. Damin begins his work on his bamboo⑦with his birds in the late afternoon. The birds swim down and catch fish. A piece of grass is tied around the neck of each bird, so it cannot swallow the fish.
