A great many victims of the earthquake that struck Wenchuan of Sichuan Province were killed not by the quake itself but by the sudden large amou
25、nts of debris that followed.Most debris flows occur where the soil is composed mainly of sand or colluviums (崩积层)Loose soils made up of bits of sand or colluviums fall apart easily and are main material for fast-moving debris flows.Scientists have conducted endless experiments to find out how debris
26、 flows work. They have learned that the amount and the timing of water entering the soil are crucial (决定性的)Typically，that means debris flows often occur when a long rainy period of many weeks is followed by an intense，brief heavy rain.More often than not，however，debris flows are started by water，in
27、the form of rain，snow，or river flow. In 1998，heavy rains from Hurricane Mitch unleashed about one million tons of mudslides，burying thousands of people in Central America.Water flows through the soil until it hits a ham layer of bedrock or clay. There the water builds up，filling the tiny spaces betw
28、een the soil and rock. That buildup reduces the natural friction (摩擦力) that keeps the rock and soil debris lying on the slope. If conditions are approaching dangerous levels，the slope will then fall down.Despite what scientists know about the fact，debris flows are still impossible to predict at pres
29、ent because there are many other uncertainties that affect the stability of each slope. However，one thing is known：On hillsides where one debris flow has occurred，another will eventually follow. The next debris flow could take days，weeks，or years to happen.56The passage is mainly about_.Awhen and wh
30、ere debris flows occurBthe experiments that scientists conductCthe possible ways to predict landslides Dthe causes of debris flows57Debris flows usually take place_.Awhen a long rainy period is followed by a heavy rainBafter a heavy rain or an intense snowstormCwhen there is a right amount of water
31、entering the soilDduring earthquakes and volcanic eruptions58The underlined word unleashed in the 4th paragraph most probably means_.Ainvented Borganized Cprovided Dreleased 59We can infer from the text that_.Awater can flow through a hard layer of bedrock or clayBthe friction can keep the rock and

C Martha Payne, the Scottish schoolgirl whose Internet postings about her school dinner became an international hit, is ending her blog. So she can focus on other activities.

45、million people and raised nearly100.000 for Marys Meals, a charity which helps feed children in the third world. Marthas father David said no pressure had been put on his daughter to cease her postings and she was not reacting to the widespread media coverage of Argyll and Bute councils heavy-handed
46、 ban. “She has done really well to get this far. She has committed to it, and every day she could write it she did. She enjoyed doing her project, and I am sure she will find something else.” Martha, from Lochgilphead, Argyll, began the blog, NeverSeconds, last month and quickly generated a large on
47、line following around the world with her pictures of her school dinners, frank comments and ratings on how tasty and healthy they were. The councils attempt last week to shut down what it perceived as a critical blog backfired massively, with controversy about the ban and protests from Jamie Oliver
48、and other celebrities attracting millions more internet users to the site.

54、arm equipment, helping farmers get the most from their fields.“When tilling razor-straight lines with a GPS-guided tractor, you hardly have to drive and you can do a straight line a whole lot easier,” says farmer Brad Eustace . The GPS computer receives signals from earth-orbiting satellites to keep
55、 track of where his tractor is and where it has gone. Tubes deliver precise amounts of fertilizer right into the grooves (沟槽) that the tiller cuts. The seed goes right on top of this row. This tilled row, farmer Jimmy Messick says. Messick says. The corn planter will come back, and it will be puttin
56、g the seeds exactly on top of these tilled strips that the machine previously has put the fertilizer inPlacing seed and fertilizer together with centimeter precision means fewer loads of fertilizer go on the fields. Youre able to use less, Messick says. Of course, youre saving money. And you get the
57、 same performance out of the crop.And thats not all hes saving. Nutrients from farm fertilizers are a leading cause of water pollution.
