25、lrounded student you are.Your academic,artistic,and social skills have truly blossomed(展现) in the last few years.You should be as proud of yourself as we are.College will be the most important years in your life.It is in college that you will truly discover what learning is about.You often question
26、“what good is this course”.I encourage you to be inquisitive,but I also want to tell you:“Education is what you have left after all that is taught is forgotten.” What I mean by that is the material taught isnt as important as you gaining the ability to learn a new subject,and the ability to analyze
27、a new problem.That is really what learning in college is aboutthis will be the period where you go from teachertaught to masterinspired,after which you must become a selflearner.Do not fall into to trap of dogma(教条).There is no single simple answer to any question.Remember during your high school de

36、at the formation of the Earth,Sun and Moon that cause changes in Earths tides can also trigger a special kind of Earthquake along the Californias San Andreas Fault(断层).The study,published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Science,is based on previous researcher suggesting that th
37、e gravitational tug of sun and moon is not only affecting the sea levels of Earth,but can also stretch and compress that Earths crust,producing tremors and quakes.Furthermore,the new study showed that small tremors deep underground were more likely to occur during certain periods of the tidal cycle.
38、For the study,the researchers looked at about 81,000 lowfrequency earthquakes from 2008 to 2015 along the Parkfield section of the San Andreas Fault and compared it to the twoweek tidal cycle known as the “fortnightly tide”.Lowfrequency earthquakes are named due to the rumbling sound they make and n
39、ot by the rate of its occurrence.These kinds of earthquake only occur about 15 to 30 kilometers below ground and are no larger than magnitude 1 in the Richter scale.The researchers discovered that lowfrequency earthquakes tend to occur during the waxing period of the tidal cycle,when the tides are g
40、etting little by little.It is already known that the strongest Earth tides occur when the sun and moon are in a straight line,while the tide is at its weakest state when the sun and moon are 90 degrees apart.According to the researchers,lowfrequency earthquakes show that some part of the San Andreas
41、 Fault is creeping,or slowly moving,almost all the time.With the help of the tidal forces,lowfrequency earthquakes could provide more information about the deeper part of the fault.“They tell us that the fault continues down below where the regular or typical earthquakes stop on the San Andreas,abou
42、t 10 or 12 km (about 6 to 7 miles),” said David Shelly,a seismologist at USGS and helped write the study,in a statement.“And they tell us a lot of things about that deep part of the fault that we had no idea existed at all before.”“Its almost like having a lot of little creep meters embedded in the
43、fault,” Shelly said.“We can use these lowfrequency earthquakes as measurements of,at least in a relative sense,how much slip is happening at each little spot on the deep part of the fault where we see these events.When we dont see them,we dont know whats happening;we dont know whether its slipping s
44、ilently or not slipping at all.”The information is incredibly useful,he added.Whenever the deep part of the fault slips,the stress gets transferred to the shallow part of the fault.“So if all of a sudden,we saw that the deep part of the fault was slipping a huge amount,it might be an indication that
45、 there was an increased chance of having an earthquake come at the shallower part of the fault,” he said.41.What causes tremors and quakes according to the passage?A.The formation of the Earth,Sun and Moon.B.The change of the sea levels of Earth.C.The effect of the gravitational tug of sun and moon
46、on Earths crust.D.The movement of creeping in the deep part of the San Andreas Fault.42.The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 6 refers to .A.the researchersB.the tidal forcesC.the lowfrequency earthquakesD.the typical earthquakes43.Lowfrequency earthquakes occur when .A.the tides are getting bigge

48、over how lowfrequency earthquakes occurD.to offer more information about the deeper part of the faultDMichael Herr,who has died aged 76,was the author of Dispatches(1977),the best book about the Vietnam war.Herr also made vital contributions to two of the best films on the war,Apocalypse Now and Ful
49、l Metal Jacket.It took Herr eight years to write Dispatches,in part because he went home from Saigon with a bad case of stress disorder.He had gone to Vietnam as a correspondent for Esquire magazine.An American general asked him whether he was there to write about military fashion,and another whethe
50、r he was there to write humour.No,he told them.He wrote little for Esquire,but took advantage of the US governments decision to allow correspondents extraordinary access to go to war with the soldiers.He shared their discomforts and their fears,witnessed their death and recorded their language.His o
51、wn language,a stream of consciousness pulsing with energy,but masterfully controlled,captured the fear and the horror,but also the excitement,of the war in the jungle and paddy fields.“So much beauty”,he recalled,“and so much pleasure”.He recorded with a connoisseurs expertise(行家专长) such details as
52、the many ways in which soldiers would wish each other good luck,and the degrees of madness that were considered acceptable.He identified with the young soldiers and learned in the first few days that you could not affect neutrality(中立).“If you are neutral,you dont get it,” said he.He generally did n
53、ot carry a weapon,though on occasion he did fire at Vietnamese in emergencies.The young soldiers,he said,“are my guns”.The power of the book,perhaps,comes from Herrs insistence on describing the war,or more precisely his own responses to it,rather than protesting(抗议) against it.It also comes from th
54、e ceaseless accompaniment of two elements,drugs and musicmore particularly rock music,and especially the music of Jimi Hendrix.Herr himself spent drugfuelled weekends in a flat in Saigon,staring at an ancient French map of Indochina,and he never caught a helicopter without a Hendrix record.He met so
55、ldiers with a left pocket full of Dexedrine,the “upper” officially administered by the army to get them into battle,and a right pocket full of “downers” to get them through it.Dispatches did not come out until 1977,when the country was beginning to keep its mind on other problems,but it did more,per
56、haps,than any other book to freeze an image of despair and a sense of waste about the war,rather as the trench poets of 19141918 did in Britain.Herr also made vital contributions to two of the most influential Vietnam films.He wrote Martin Sheens voiceover for Francis Ford Coppolas Apocalypse Now an
57、d later wrote the screenplay for Stanley Kubricks Full Metal Jacket.His work,in the book and the two films,has been seen as part of the process whereby the US came to see itself and its history no longer merely through traditional literature,but in sounds and images,in ways that prefigured(预示) the I
58、nternet.In 1980 Herr moved to London,where he stayed until he moved back to the US in 1991.It was there that he met Stanley Kubrick,who became a close friend,though Herr warned against doing business with him.Herr wrote Kubricks biography,but he wrote surprisingly little else after Dispatches.45.Why
59、 did Michael Herr go to Vietnam during the war years?A.To join the soldiers in military actions.B.To report military actions and advances.C.To give an authentic account of the war.D.To write about military fashion and humour.46.What can we infer from Michael Herrs statement underlined in Paragraph 4
60、?A.It was impossible to remain neutral during the war.B.It was unnecessary to show pity for the war victims.C.Neutrality is a means to keep you safe during the war.D.Neutrality can help the civilians free from sufferings.47.Which of the following about Dispatches is TRUE?A.It fully describes Herrs p

64、 would have been so much better if we all knew how to say and do the right thing at the right time.However,that is not the case,especially when it comes to instilling(逐步培养) proper behavior in kids.Behavior modification(BM) techniques were recently created to help in instilling proper behavior in chi
