22、canic history of Yellowstone National Park, Bob Christiansen became puzzled about something that，oddly，had not troubled anyone before: he couldnt find the parks volcano. It had been known for a long time that Yellowstone was volcanic in naturethats what accounted for all its hot springs and other st
23、eamy features. But Christiansen couldnt find the Yellowstone volcano anywhere.Most of us，when we talk about volcanoes，think of the classic cone (圆锥体) shapes of a Fuji or Kilimanjaro，which are created when erupting magma(岩浆)piles up. These can form remarkably quickly. In 1943，a Mexican farmer was sur
24、prised to see smoke rising from a small part of his land.In one week he was the confused owner of a cone five hundred feet high. Within two years it had topped out at almost fourteen hundred feet and was more than half a mile across. Altogether there are some ten thousand of these volcanoes on Earth
25、，all but a few hundred of them extinct. There is，however，a second less known type of volcano that doesnt involve mountain building. These are volcanoes so explosive that they burst open in a single big crack，leaving behind a vast hole，the caldera.Yellowstone obviously was of this second type，but Chr

A thoughtful official passed on some of the copies to the park authorities on the assumption that they might make a nice blowup for one of the visito
27、rs centers. As soon as Christiansen saw the photos，he realized why he had failed to spot the caldera: almost the whole park2.2 million acreswas caldera.The explosion had left a hole more than forty miles acrossmuch too huge to be seen from anywhere at ground level. At some time in the past Yellowsto
28、ne must have blown up with a violence far beyond the scale of anything known to humans.本文为说明文。讲述了二十世纪六十年代Bob Christiansen在研究黄石公园的火山历史时，奇怪地发现到处看不到火山的影子，原来，这儿的火山并不是像我们大部分人想象的那种圆锥体形状的高耸的样子，而是一个巨大的洞，这个洞太大了以至于从地面上的任何地方都看不见。21What puzzled Christiansen when he was studying Yellowstone?AIts complicated geog

New evidence unearthed
33、at the World Heritage Site in more than 40 years suggests that the monument was a place where the diseased and injured went in groups, seeking cures.After a twoweek dig, scientists have concluded that Stonehenge was “the ancient healthcare centre of southern England” because of the existence of “blu
34、estones”the smaller columns of dolerite(辉绿岩)that formed an earlier stone structure.By dating pieces of remains to around 7330 BC, Tim Darvill, of Bournemouth University, and Goff Wainwright, of the Society of Antiquaries have found that huntergatherers were at the site on Salisbury Plain 4,000 years
35、 earlier than thought. The first stage of Stonehenge, a round earthwork structure, was built around 3000 BC. Professor Wainwright added: “I did not expect the degree of complexity we discovered. Were able to say so much more about when Stonehenge was built and whyall of which changes our previous un
36、derstanding of the monument.”The research reveals the importance of the henges famous bluestones. Hundreds of bluestone chips gathered at the site have led the team to conclude that the bluestones were valued for their curing effectsthe key reason that about 80 of them, each weighing up to 4 tons an
37、d a half, were dragged more than 150 miles from the Preseli Hills to Wiltshire. After years of research, Professors Darvill and Wainwright have concluded that, for thousands of years, the Preseli mountain range was home to magical health centers and holy wells.Even today there are those who believe
38、in the curing powers of the springs for coughs and heart disease, and people who use crystals and bluestones for selfcuring. Radiocarbon tests have also revealed that the construction of the original bluestone circle took place around 2300 BC, three centuries later than originally thought. Interesti

46、 by banning tigershooting, to protect those animals which still survive.Some people say that man is naturally a hunter. I disagree with this view. Surely our earliest forefathers, who at first possessed no weapons, spent their time digging for roots, and were no doubt themselves often hunted by meat
47、eating animals.I believe the main reason why the modern hunter kills is that he thinks people will admire his courage in overpowering dangerous animals. Of course, there are some who truly believe that the killing is not really the important thing, and that the chief pleasure lies in the joy of the
48、hunt and the beauties of the wild countryside. There are also those for whom hunting in fact offers a chance to prove themselves and risk death by design; these men go out after dangerous animals like tigers, even if they say they only do it to rid the countryside of a threat. I can respect reasons
49、like these, but they are clearly different from the need to strengthen your high opinion of yourself.The greatest biggame hunters expressed in their writings something of these finer motives. One of them wrote: “You must properly respect what you are after and shoot it cleanly and on the animals own
50、 territory (领地). You must fix forever in your mind all the wonders of that particular day. This is better than letting him grow a few years older to be attacked and wounded by his own son and eventually eaten, half alive, by other animals.

51、ct the thing you kill, not if you kill to enrich your memories, not if you kill to feed your people.”I can understand such beliefs, and can compare these hunters with those who hunted lions with spears(矛) and bravely caught them by the tail. But this is very different from many tigershoots I have se

Such methods made tigers seem no more dangerous than rabbits.文章主要讲述的是印度猎人减少的事情。可被猎杀的动物减少了，政府也采取了一些措施来保护老虎等。相比以前的那种面对面的捕猎，现在的“偷袭”式的捕猎显得猎人缺少勇气。28There is no more hunting in India no

DThey hunt for money.解析：推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“Hunting is not a cruel and senseless killingnot if you respect the thing you kill, not if you kill to enrich your memories, not if you kill to feed your people.”可知
56、，他们打猎是为了获得食物。故选C。答案：C31What is the authors view on the tigershoots he has seen?AModern hunters lack the courage to hunt facetoface. BModern hunters should use more advanced weapons.CModern hunters like to hunt rabbits instead of tigers. DModern hunters should put their safety first.解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段“T
57、he socalled hunters fired from tall trees or from the backs of trained elephants.”socalled所谓的，可知从树上或大象背后射杀动物是缺乏勇气的行为，故选A。答案：ADIncreasing numbers of airports, especially in Europe, are promoting a “silent airport” idea. It is to reduce noise pollution, such as airportwide announcements, without sacri
58、ficing timely and helpful updates of information.International airports were once characterized by their high voices, competing gate announcements and so on. This is all changing. Angela Gittens, director general of Airports Council International (ACI), says there is a growing desire among airports
59、and airlines they serve to create a calm, relaxed atmosphere without being disturbed by announcements. “Passengers can relax while they wait for their flight to board in the common airside lounges(休闲区), and food and drink areas，” she says.In June, Helsinki Airport in Finlanda country where the touri

71、 open up in order to improve your mental health. _37_ Accept this and move on. Give yourself some time to have sweaty palms or a shaky voice, since it will get better with practice.Ask people openended questions. To begin practicing opening up, you need to engage in honest, open conversation. Try a
72、question like “How are things going at work？” instead of “Hows it going？” to get an open answer. Then, in turn answer openended questions with honest answers, instead of “Fine” or “OK”. _38_ However, in most cases people are flattered that you are listening to them and interested in their life.Try e
73、mulating(效仿)someone who is very open. Observe them in a social situation. Then, try to act as if you are them occasionally.
