各位同学们,为了督促帮助大家持续提升英语能力,培君老师们特意给大家准备了托福每日一包。每天覆盖听说读写内容,坚持完成两周以上,就能见到自己的英语能力不断上涨哟。
1.听写包 答案: Even the model supporters are uncomfortableclaiming that it explains every volcanic anomaly,
and like any popular theory, I suppose, it has somedetermined critics.
These critics have put forth a number of alternativetheories, all unproven so far.
But one well-regarded theory is the CrackHypothesis,
which assumes that hot spots are created when apiece of the crust gets stretched thinner and thinnerand the resulting stress causes small cracks
to open up at weak spots in the crust,
and it’s through these cracks that magma pushes up to form volcanoes.
Proponents of the crack hypothesis consider this a widespread phenomenon and believethat magma’s not coming up from deep within the Earth’s interior,
but rather from just beneath the surface crust.
This hypothesis is attractive, because
it fits with what we already know about plate tectonics and it fits what we know about somesecondary smaller hot spots, but
how well does it explain the Hawaiian Islands?
Could a series of random cracks produce that same particular string of Islands that’ssequenced so neatly from old to young?
You know, it worries me when a theory depends on coincidence to produce results.
虽然这个模型的支持者们都不愿宣称这个理论能解释所有异常的火山,
像所有的流行理论一样,我认为它也有一些很坚决的批评家。
这些批评家提出了大量的可替代理论,所有的这些理论目前都未得到证明。
不过有一个很值得考虑的理论,那就是裂缝理论,
这一理论认为当一块地壳被拉伸得越来越薄时就产生了热点,同时产生的压力导致小裂缝
在地壳不牢固的地点打开,
而岩浆正是通过这些裂缝上涌形成火山的。
裂缝理论的支持者们认为这是一个广泛分布的现象,并相信岩浆不是从深层的地球内部出来的,
而只是从表面的地壳下喷涌而出的。
这个理论很有吸引力,因为
它符合我们已知的关于板块构造论的知识,而且符合我们对一些次要的更小的热点的了解,但是
它在解释夏威夷群岛方面表现如何呢?
一系列杂乱的裂缝能产生同样特殊的按照形成时间长短排列得如此有序的岛屿群吗?
当一个理论要依靠巧合才能得出结果时,真的令我忧心忡忡。
2.阅读包答案:
新学派的一位领袖人物坚持说:简而言之,我们所谓的科学革命,主要是指一系列器具的改进、发明和使用,这些改进、发明和使用使科学发展的范围无所不及。
3.写作包答案:
Four great inventions of China include thecompass,gun powder,the paper-making techniqueand the printing technique.They are one of themarks that China occupies an important position inthe history of human civilization.The first compasswas invented during the Warring States Period.It was a simple device employing naturalmagnets to identify directions.Gunpowder was invented in Sui and Tang Dynasties and wasmainly used in military areas.The paper-making technique was developed by Cai Lun in theEastern Han Dynasty,making paper a commonly used writing material.The Printingtechnique,also called movable type printing,promoted the spread of culture significantly.Thefour great inventions of China made tremendous contribution to the development of theworld's economy and the progress of the culture of mankind.
