8、 up and down or lengthways (纵向地 ) against each other. When one piece of rock starts to rub on another with great force, a lot of energy is used. This energy is changed into vibrations (振动 ) and it is these vibrations that we feel as an earthquake. The vibrations can travel thousands of kilometers an

Then, most Americans had little interest in 1,500,000 square kilometers “of icebergs and polar bears“ beyond Canada

18、s western borders, far from the settled areas of the United States. In those sections of the state which lie above the Arctic Circle, Alaska still is a land of icebergs and polar bears. Ice masses lie buried in the earth, which is permanently frozen to a depth of 90 or more meters region. From early

19、 May until early August, the midnight sun never sets on this flat, treeless region, but the sun can not melt the icy soil more than two-thirds of a meter down.

21、ka on his voyage for Russia in 1741.The Eskimos are the states earliest known inhabitants Russian fur traders established settlements but, by the time Alaska was sold to the United States, most of the traders had departed. In 1896 gold was discovered near the Klondike River in Canada just across the

22、 Alaskan border. Thousands of Americans rushed to the region on their way to .Klondike; some never returned. Alaska was never completely cut off again, although even today transportation is a major problem. There are only two motor routes from the US mainland, and within the state, every town has it

23、s own airfield. Planes fly passengers, mail and freight to the most distant villages. The gold that changed life so suddenly for Alaska was soon ended, and although many stories about mining camps have become part ofAmerican literature, the gold from Alaskan earth contributed less to economic progre

24、ss than the fish from Alaskan waters. The fish from Alaskan waters. The fish caught in a single year range in value from $ 80 million to $ 90 million. Fur-beating animals are plentiful in the forests and streams, and valuable fur seals inhabit the waters. After fishing, the states chief industry is

Since the 1940s, the nations vast industrial base has been

29、fed with a constant stream of new ideas and expertise from science. And though German prosperity (繁荣 ) has faltered (衰退 ) over the past decade because of the huge cost of unifying east and west as well as the global economic decline, it still has an enviable (令人羡慕的 ) record for turning ideas into pr

30、ofit. Much of the reason for that success is the Fraunhofer Society, a network of research institutes that exists solely to solve industrial problems and create sought-after technologies. .But today the Fraunhofer institutes have competition. Universities are taking an ever larger role in technology

31、 transfer, and technology parks are springing up all over. These efforts are being complemented by the federal programs for pumping money into start-up companies. Such a strategy may sound like a recipe for economic success, but it is not without its critics. These people worry that favoring applied

32、 research will mean neglecting basic science, eventually starving industry of flesh ideas. If every scientist starts thinking like an entrepreneur (企业家 ), the argument goes, then the traditional principles of university research being curiosity driven, free and widely available will suffer. Others c

33、laim that many of the programs to promote technology transfer are a waste of money because half the small businesses that are promoted are bound to go bankrupt within a few years. While this debate continues, new ideas flow at a steady rate from Germanys research networks, which bear famous names su

34、ch as Helmholtz, Max Planck and Leibniz. Yet it is the fourth network, the Fraunhofer Society, that plays the greatest role in technology transfer. Founded in 1949, the Fraunhofer Society is now Europes largest organization for applied technology, and has 59 institutes employing 12,000 people. It co

35、ntinues to grow. Last year it swallowed up the Heinrich Hertz Institute for Communication Technology in Bedim Today, there are even Fraunhofers in the US and Asia. 31 What factor can be attributed to German prosperity? （ A） Technology transfer. （ B） Good management. （ C） Hard work. （ D） Fierce compe

36、tition. 32 Which of the following is NOT true of traditional university research? （ A） It is free. （ B） It is profit-driven. （ C） It is widely available. （ D） It is curiosity-driven. 33 The Fraunhofer Society is the largest organization for applied technology in _. （ A） Asia （ B） USA （ C） Europe （ D

38、oal burning deep underground in China, India and Indonesia is threatening the environment and human life, scientists have warned. These large-scale underground blazes cause the ground temperature to heat up and kill surroundings vegetation, produce greenhouse gases and can even ignite forest fires,

39、a panel of scientists told the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Denver. The resulting release of poisonous elements like arsenic and mercury can also pollute local water sources and soils, they warned. “Coal fires are a global catastrophe,“ said Associate

40、Professor Glenn Stracher of East Georgia College in Swainsboro, USA. But surprisingly few people know about them. Coal can heat up on its own, and eventually catch fire and burn, if there is a continuous oxygen supply. The heat produced is not caused to disappear and under the right combinations of

41、sunlight and oxygen, can trigger spontaneous catching fire and burning. This can occur underground, in coal stockpiles, abandoned mines or even as coal is transported. Such fires in China consume up to 200 million tones of coal per year, delegates were told. In comparison, the US economy consumes ab

42、out one billion tons of coal annually, said Stracher, whose analysis of the likely impact of coal fires has been accepted for publication in the International Journal of coal ecology, once underway, coal fires can burn for decades, even centuries. In the process, they release large volumes of greenh

43、ouse gases; poisonous gases fumes and black particles in to the atmosphere. The members of the panel discussed the impact these fires may be having on global and regional climate change, and agreed that the underground nature of the fires makes them difficult to protect. One of the members of the pa

44、nel, Assistant Professor Pan1 Van Dijk of the International Institute for Goo-Information Science and Earth Observation in the Netherlands, has been working with the Chinese government to detect and monitor fires in the northern regions of the country. Ultimately, the remote sensing and other techni

45、ques should allow scientists to estimate how much carbon dioxide theses fires are emitting. One suggested method of containing the fires was presented by Cary Colaozzi, of the engineering firm Goodson, which bas developed a heat-resistant grout (a thin mortar used to fill cracks and crevices,) which

46、 is designed to be pumped into the coal fire to cut off the oxygen supply. 36 According to the first paragraph, one of the warnings given by the scientists is that _. （ A） underground, fires loom large in the forests （ B） coal burning deep underground is found in China （ C） poisonous elements releas

47、ed by the underground fires can pollute water sources （ D） arsenic and mercury are the most poisonous elements to water sources 37 According to the third paragraph, what will happen when the underground heat does not disappear? （ A） Coal heats up on its own and catches fire and bums. （ B） The underg

48、round oxygen will be used up. （ C） Poisonous fumes and greenhouse gases will be accumulated underground. （ D） There will be an increases of abandoned mines. 38 What did Stracher analyze in his article published in the International Journal of Coal Ecology? （ A） Annual consumption of coal in US. （ B）

49、 Annual consumption of coal in China. （ C） How long coal fires has lasted in the northern region of China. （ D） Coal fires can have an impact on the environment. 39 Which of the following statements about Paul Van Dijk is Not true? （ A） He was one of the scientists who have warned against the threats of underground fires. （ B） He has detected and monitored underground fires in Netherlands. （ C） He has worked with the Chinese government on the underground fires issue. （ D
