1、Blasts from the Past1 Volcanoes were more destructive in ancient history. Not because they were bigger, but because the carbon they released wiped out life with greater ease.2 Paul Wignall from the University of Leeds was investigating the link between volcanic eruptions ａｎｄ　mass extinctions. Not all volcanic eruptions killed off large numbers of animals, but all the mass extinctions over the past 300. million years coincided with huge formations of volcanic rock. To his surprise, the older the massive volcanic eruptions were, the more damage they seemed to do.3 Wignall calculated the "killing efficiency" fｏｒthese volcanoes by comparing the proportion of life they killed off with the volume of lava that they produced. He found that size fｏｒsize, older eruptions were at least 10 times as effective at wiping out life as their more recent rivals.4 The Permian extinction, fｏｒexample, which happened 250 million years ago, is marked by floods of volcanic rock in. Siberia that cover an area roughly the size of western Europe, Those volcanoes are thought to have pumped out about 10 gigatonnes of carbon as carbon dioxide, The global warming that followed wiped out 8 per cent of all marine genera at the time, ａｎｄ　it took 5 million years far tire planet to recover.5 Yet 60 million years ago in the late Palaeocene there was another huge amount of volcanic activity ａｎｄ　global-warming but no mass extinction. Some animals did disappear but things returned to normal within ten thousands of years, "The most recent ones hardly have an effect at all," Wignall says. He ignored the extinction which wiped out the dinosaurs at the end of the Cretaceous, 65 million years ago, because many scientists believe it was primarily caused by the impact of an asteroid.6 Wignall thinks that older volcanoes had more killing power because more recent life forms were better adapted to dealing with increased levels of C02 Ocean chemistry may also have played a role. As the supercontinents broke up ａｎｄ　exposed more coastline there may have been more weathering of silica rocks. This would have encouraged the growth of phytoplankton in the oceans, increasing the amount of C02 absorbed from the atmosphere.7 Vincent Courtillot, directｏｒof the Paris Geophysical Institute in France, says that Wignall\'s idea is provocative. But he says it is incredibly hard to do these sorts of calculations. He points out that the killing power of volcanic eruptions depends on how long they fasted. ａｎｄ　it is impossible to tell whether the huge blasts lasted fｏｒthousands ｏｒmillions of years.8 Courtillot also adds that it is difficult to estimate how much lava prehistoric volcanoes produced, ａｎｄ　that lava volume may not necessarily correspond to carbon dioxide ｏｒsulphur dioxide emissions.The Permian extinction is used to illustrate____.【单选题】

A.than more recent ones

B.the killing efficiency fｏｒolder eruptions

C.has remained controversial

D.Wignall\'s calculations as acceptable

E.has been mown to us all

F.his ideas

正确答案:B

答案解析:the killing efficiency fｏｒolder eruptions:较早的火山爆发在灭绝生物方面的效率。填入后生成的句子意思是：二叠纪生物灭绝说明较早的火山喷发在灭绝生物方面的效率。这一点我们在对第三题做题解时已经提到。

2、Nurse! I Want My MummyWhen a child is ill in hospital, a parent\'s first reaction is to be with them.Most hospitals now allow parents to sleep overnight with their child, providing a bed ｏｒsofa on the ward.But until the 1970s this practice was not only frowned upon (不赞同) — it was actively discouraged. Staff worried that the children would be upｓｅｔwhen their parents left, ａｎｄ　so there was a blanket (通用的) ban.A concerned nurse, Pamela Hawthorn, disagreed ａｎｄ　her study "Nurse, I want my mummy!" published in 1974, changed the face "paediatric (儿科的) nursing.Martin Johnson, a professｏｒof nursing at the University of Salford, said that the work of nurses like Pamela had changed the face of patient care."Pamela\'s study was done against the background of a lively debate in paediatrics ａｎｄ　psychology as to the degree women should spend with children in the outside world ａｎｄ　the degree to which they should be allowed to visit children in hospital.""The idea was that if mum came to visita small child in hospital the child would be upｓｅｔａｎｄ　inconsolable (无法安慰的) fｏｒhours. ""Yet the nurse noticed that if mum did not come at all the child stayed in a relatively stable state but they might be depressed. ""Of course we know now that they had almost given up hope that mum was ever coming back.""To avoid a little bit of pain they said that no one should visit.""But children were alone ａｎｄ　depressed, so Hawthorn said parents should be ____ to visit."Dr. Peter Carter, chief executive ａｎｄ　general secretary of the Royal College of Nursing, said her work had been seminal (开创性的)."Her research put an end to the days when parents handed their children over to strangers at the doｏｒof the hospital ward.""As a result of her work, parents are now recognized as partners in care ａｎｄ　are afforded the opportunity to stay with their children while they are in hospital, which has dramatically improved both parents\' ａｎｄ　children\'s experience of care." 【单选题】

A.forced

B.guided

C.persuaded

D.allowed

正确答案:D

答案解析:本题有一定难度，考查词义辨析，文章此处是说“可是孩子会感到孤独和忧郁，所以应允许父母来探望孩子”，答案是D。

3、There was a profound silence after his remark.【单选题】

A.proud

B.short

C.sudden

D.deep

正确答案:D

答案解析:他讲完后现场一片沉寂。本题考察的是引申意义。profound指“深刻的”，引申意义是“深度的，完全的”和deep“深的”是近义词，其他三项都是常用词，和答案意义差异大，干扰性不强。

4、Outside-the-classroom Learning Makes a Big DifferencePutting a bunch of college students in charge of a $300,000 Dance Marathon, fundraiser surely sounds a bit risky. When you consider the fact that the money is supposed to be given to. Children in need of medical care, you might call the idea crazy.Most student leaders don\'t want to spend a large amount of time on something they care little about, said 22-year-old University of Florida student Darren Heitner. He was the Dance Marathon\'s operations officer fｏｒtwo years.Yvonne Fangmeyer, directｏｒof the student organization office at the University of Wisconsin, conducted a survey in February of students involved in campus organizations. She said the desire fｏｒfriendship was the most frequently cited reason fｏｒjoining.At large universities like Fangmeyer\'s, which has more than 40,000 students, the students, first of all, want to find a way to "belong in their own comer of campus".Katie Rowley, a Wisconsin senior, confirms the survey\'s findings. "I wanted to make the campus feel smaller by joining an organization where I could not only get involved on campus but also find aｇｒｏｕｐof friends. "All of this talk of friendship, however, does not mean that students aren\'t thinking about their resumes. "I think that a lot of people do join to \'fatten up their resume\'," said Heitner. "At the beginning of my college career, I joined a few of these organizations, hoping to get a start in my leadership roles. "But without passion student leaders can have a difficult time trying to weather the storms that come. Fｏｒexample, in April, several student organizations at Wisconsin teamed up fｏｒan event designed to educate students about homelessness ａｎｄ　poverty. Student leaders had to face the problem of solving disagreements, moving the event because of rainy weather, ａｎｄ　dealing with the university\'s complicated bureaucracy."Outside-of the classroom learning really makes a big difference," Fangmeyer said.What do student leaders need to carry an activity through to a successful end?【单选题】

A.Passion.

B.Money.

C.Power.

D.Fame.

正确答案:A

答案解析:答案可以从倒数第二段找到。第一句话是这么说的：但是，如果没有激情(passion)，学生干部试图经受急风暴雨的考验是会有困难的。

5、Happy Marriage, Happy HeartHappily married people have lower blood pressure than unhappily married people ｏｒsingles, a Brigham Young University study says.On the other hand, even having a supportive social network did not translate into a blood pressure benefit fｏｒsingles ｏｒunhappily married people, according to the study."There seems to be some unique health benefits from marriage. It\'s not just being named that benefits health-what\'s really the most protective of health is having a happy marriage," study authｏｒJulianne Holt Lunstad, a psychologist who specializes in relationships ａｎｄ　health, said in a prepared statement.The study included 204 married ａｎｄ　99 single adults who wore portable blood - pressure monitors fｏｒ24 hours. The monitors recorded blood pressure at random intervals ａｎｄ　provided a total of about 72 readings."We wanted to capture participants\' blood pressure doing whatever they normally do in everyday life. Getting one ｏｒtwo readings in a clinic is not really representative of the fluctuations (波动) that occur throughout the day," Holt Lunstad said.Overall, happily married people scored four points lower on the blood pressure readings than single adults. The study also found that blood pressure among married people, especially those in happy marriages dropped more during sleep than in single people."Research has shown that people whose blood pressure remains high throughout the night are at ____ greater risk of heart disease than people whose blood pressure drops," Holt Lunstad said.The study was published in the March 20 issue of the journal Annals (年刊) of Behavioral Medicine.The study also found that unhappily married adults have higher blood pressure than both happily married ａｎｄ　single adults.Holt Lunstad noted that married couples can encourage healthy habits in one another, such as eating a healthy diet ａｎｄ　having regular doctｏｒvisits. People in happy marriages also have a source of emotional support, she said. 【单选题】

A.more
