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: Listen to part of a lecture in an Earth Science class. The class has been discussing volcanoes.
Okay. We know the Earth’s surface, the crust, is made up of tectonic plates,
and that these huge slabs of rocky crust are slowly sliding over or under or past each other.
And we said that most of the world’s volcanoes occur at the boundaries of these tectonic plates
where you have hot molten rocks squeezing up through gaps between the plates.
But some volcanoes occur not at the edges, but in the middle of a continental or oceanic plate.
The Hawaiian islands, for example, are thousands of kilometers away from any plate boundary, and yet
you have vast amounts of magma, molten rock or lava, flowing up through the earth’s crust, which means, of course,
that volcanic activity there can’t be explained simply by plate tectonics.
So, how do we explain these volcanic anomalies, these exceptions to the general rule?
Well, back in 1963, a geophysicist by the name of Wilson came up with a hot spot theory
to explain how this particular type of volcanic activity can occur and can go on for maybe tens or even hundreds of millions of years.
请听地球科学课上的部分内容。这节课讨论的是火山。
我们知道地球的表面也就是地壳是由地壳板块构成的,
这些巨大的岩壳慢慢地滑到彼此上方或下方,或滑过对方。
我们说世界上大部分的火山都是在这些地壳板块的交界处喷发的,
在这些地方熔化了的炙热岩石通过这些板块之间的裂缝不断挤压上涌。
但是有一些火山不在边缘处喷发,而是在一个大洲或海洋板块的中央喷发。
举个例子来说,夏威夷群岛距离任一板块界线都有数千公里远,但
却有巨大数量的岩浆穿过地壳喷涌而出,这无疑意味着
那里的火山活动不能简单地用板块构造论来解释。
那么,我们该如何解释这些异常的火山,这些一般规则的例外呢?
在1963年,一位叫做Wilson的地球物理学家提出了一个热点理论
来解释这种类型的火山活动是如何发生并持续数千万年甚至数亿年的。
2.阅读包答案:
一般地说,当所要测定的特征能很精确地界定时,测试最为有效;而当所要测定或预测的东西不能明确地界定时,测试的效果则最差。
3.写作包答案:
Made in China" is a label attached to the productsmanufactured in China.Owing to the advantages ofrich labor resources and raw material resources inChina, products made in China are well-received inthe world on account of their competitive price andsuperior quality."Made in China" has become a recognizable label in the world today thanksto the rapid development of the manufacturing industry in China.At present, China has becomethe world's manufacturing center and is named "World Workshop".Although globally a greatnumber of electronic products and shoes are made in China, all their designs are completed inEuropean and American countries.Nowadays a growing number of Chinese companies aredevoting themselves to establishing their own brands, hoping to be transformed from "Madein China" into "Designed in China".
