根据以下内容回答题：A volcanic eruption in Iceland has sent ash across northern Europe．Airl

根据以下内容回答题：

A volcanic eruption in Iceland has sent ash across northern Europe．Airlines have stopped or changed the flights across the Atlantic Ocean，leaving hundreds of passengers stuck in air-ports．

Grimsvoto is oDe of the largest and most active volcanoes in Europe．What makes Grimsvoto different is that it lies under a huge glacier(冰川)of ice up to 12 meters thick．The hot volcano heats up the ice above it，which then forms a layer of water between the glacier and the volcano．This layer of water puts pressure on the volcano，keeping it stable．As the water flows out from under the glacier，the pressure lifts．The lava(岩浆)from the volcano then comes up to the surface．This is exactly what happened today．

Now．airlines have to make changes to their flights SO as not to fly through the clouds of volcanic as．h．According to．KLM，one of Europe’s biggest airlines，airplanes cannot go under the cloud or over it．Going through the cloud can result in ash getting stuck in the airplane’s engines，causing damage to the plane．

The eruption has also caused problems for animals in Iceland．The volcano left ash and sharp，glass-like rocks all over the countryside．Farmers are keeping their animals inside to stop them from eating ash—covered grass or the sharp objects．

What makes Grimsvoto different from other volcanoes？查看材料

A.It is below-ice．

B.It lies under the sea．

C.It is the largest volcano．

D.Its lava affects the airlines．

根据以下内容回答题：Each nation has its own peculiar character which distinguishes it from

根据以下内容回答题：

Each nation has its own peculiar character which distinguishes it from others．But the peo-pies of the world have more points in common than points in which they differ．One type of per-son that is common in evcry country is the one who always tries to do as littl．e as possible and to get as much as possible in return．His opposite，the man who is in the habit of doing more than is strictly necessary and who is ready to accept what is offered in return，is rare everywhere．

Both these tyDes are usually unconscious of their character．The man who avoids effort is always talking about his“rights”：he appears to think that society owes him a pleasant，easy life．The man who tries to do as little as he Call is always full of excuses：if he has neglected to do something，it was because he had a headache，or the weather was too hot——or too cold——or because he was prevented by bad luck．At first，other people，such as his friends and his em-ployer，generously accept his stories；but soon they realize what kind of person he is．In the long run he deceives only himself．When his friends become cool towards him and he fails to make progress in his job，he is surprised and hurt．He blames everyone and everything except himseIf．He feels that society is failing in its duties towards him，and that he is being unjustly treated．

The central idea of Paragraph l is that__________ . 查看材料

A.each nation is peculiar enough to enable us to distinguish it from others

B.the peoples of the world are as alike as they are different

C.the peoples of the world have more similarities than differences

D.those who do．more than is strictly necessary are common in every country

根据以下内容回答题：

Traditionally．universities have carried out two main activities：research and teaching．Many expels would argue that both these activities play a critical role in serving the communi-ty．The fundamental question，however，is how does the community want or need to be served？

In recent years universities have been coming under increasing pressure from both the govemments and the public to ensure that they do not remain…ivory towers”(象牙之塔)of study separated from the realities of everyday life．University teachers have been encouraged，and in some cases compelled，to provide more courses which produce graduates with the techni-cal skills required for the commercial use．If Aristotle wanted to work in university in the uk today，he would have a good chance of teaching computer science but would not be so rea．Dily employable as a philosopher．

A post．industrial society requires large numbers of computer programmers，engineers，managers and technicians to maintain and develop its economic growth but“man”，as the Bible says，“does not live by bread alone．”Apart from requiring medical and social services，which do not directly contribute to economic growth，the society should also value and enjoy litera-ture．music and the arts．In these cost-conscious times，it has even been pointed out in justifi-cation for the funding of the arts that they can be useful money earners．A successful musical play，for instance，can contribute as much to the Gross National Product through tourist dollars as any other things．

We can know from the first paragraph that the author__________ ．查看材料

A.believes traditional’universities have done a good job serving the community

B.believes it remains to be discussed how universities should meet the needs of society

C.thinks some experts require too much of universities

D.thinks universities should do more than just research and teaching

根据以下内容回答题，There was one thought that air pollution affected only the area immedia

根据以下内容回答题，

There was one thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and heavy automobile traffic．At present，we realize that although these are the．areas with the worst air pollution，the problem is literally worldWide．On several occasions over the past decade，a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the east of the United States and brought health warnings in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile tmmc．In fact，the very climate of the entire earth may be infected by air poilu-tion．Some scientists consider that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of fossil fuels（coal and oil）is creating a“greenhouse effect”——con-serving heat refleeted from the earth and raising the world’S average temperature．If this view is correct and the worid’s temperature is raised only a few degrees，much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities such as New York，Boston，Miami，and New Orleans will be in water． Another view．1ess widely held，is that increasing particular matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earth’s temperature——a result that would be equally disas-trous．A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to a new ice age，and would make agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top fanning areas．Today we do not know for sure that either of these conditions will happen（though one recent government report drafted bv experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is#cry possible）．Perhaps，if we are lucky enough，the two tendencies will offset each other and the world’s temperature will stay about the same as it is now．

As Dointed out at the beginning of the passage，people used to think that air pollution__________ ．

A.caused widespread damage in the countryside

B.affected the entire eastern half of the United States

C.had a damaging effect on health

D.existed merely in urban and industries areas

根据以下内容回答题：Let US take a look at the chief thing in the story—the human body itsel

根据以下内容回答题：

Let US take a look at the chief thing in the story—the human body itself．A human body appears to be rather soft and delicate，compared with that of a wild animal，but it is actually surprisingly strong．Indeed，its very softness and looseness are an advantage；it makes man good at moving about and falling about in safety．Man is the most skillful in movement of all living things of his own size，because he can do so many different things with his limbs．Man’s games show how he can control his own body．No other land creature can swim as skillfully as man；none has such varied grace；very few live as long as he；none is so strong in its natural resistance to disease．Therefore man has a great advantage in his battle against the risks of damage and death that threaten him．It is difficult to kill him as long as he is fed and in good health．Yet every day thousands of people die needlessly，even though man is naturally strong，because of those two killers，disease and starvation，with the battle．

Old age？No one can live forever，so one might’suppose that quite a large number of oldpeople would come to the end of their days every year．There is，however，another thing to re-member．During the time it has taken you to read this page，a considerable number of babies have been born somewhere in the wodd—one is born every one and a quarter seconds!Of these babies，one group can be expected to have a good long life of about seventy years，because they were lucky enough to be born in countries where living standards are high．

The deadliest of all killers are starvation and disease．We cannot be content until we have mastered them．To do so is one of the most important tasks of our times．

The softness and looseness of man’s body are an advantage because it__________ ．查看材料

A.makes him strong

B.makes him resistant to diseases

C.helps him to avoid injury

D.keeps him in good health

The aim of the first type of holiday-makers is__________ ．

y in the morning.If you telephone him early in the day，while he is shaving or having breakfast，the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention．The same mean-ing is attached to telephone calls made after l l：00 P．m．If someone receives a call during sleeping hours，he assumes it"s a matter of life ot death．The time chosen for the call communi-cares has its importance． In social life，time plays a very important part ineveryday life．In the U．S．A．guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four davs before the party date．But it is not true in all countries．In other areas of the world，it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten．The meaning of time differs in dif-ferent Darts of the wodd．Thus，misunderstandings arise between people from cultures that treat time differentlv．Promptness is valued highly in American life．If people are not prompt，they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible．In the U．S．no one would think of keep-ing a business associate waiting for an hour，it would be too impolite．A person who is 5 mi-nutes late．he wm say a few words of explaination，though perhaps he will not complete the sentence

根据以下内容回答题：Last December"s earthquakes in the Iranian city of Bam took a huge deat

h toll—roughly 40，000 people——largely because of the collapse of thousands of mud—brick buildings．If a group of researchers in India are successful，the next earthquake might not be as destructive．British and Indian engineers are developing earthquake—proof housing using a cheap，universal material：bamboo． Thev designed a model house built around waterproof bamboo-sheet roofing and bamboo-reinforced concrete walls．To test the structure，the engineers，sponsored by the U．K．Depart-ment of qnternational Development，took it to the Earthquake Engineering and Vibration Re-search Centre in Bangalore，which has a state．of-the-art earthquake simulator（模拟装置）．The researchers shook the house with five successive 30-second pulses，being equal to 7．8 on the Richter（里氏）scale．The simulation was more than 10 times as violent as the Bam earth-quake．yet the house emerged undamaged．“We didn’t even crack the paint，”says engineer Paul Follett．of Britain’s Timber Research and Development Association． By some estimates，more than a binion people already live in bamboo structures．The innovation lies in developing ways to exploit bamboo’S spring．Easily pre-built，fire resistant，and far lighter than steel，bamboo．based structures could be assembled in three weeks and last 50 vears．At five dollars a square foot，they would last roughly half as much as brick-and-block constructions．Follett says the project will follow an“open source”model：“Whatever is developed is freely available for the common good．”

Thousands of people died in the Bam earthquake mainly because__________ ．
