1.听写包 答案:
We're pleased to welcome Dr Martin Merrywhether of the Antarctic Centre in Christchurch, New Zealand who hascome along to talk to us today the role of the Centre and the Antarctic Treaty.
Now my first question is about the choice of location for the centre.
Why Christchurch?Was it because of the climate?
Well actually New Zealand is the second closest country to Antarctica and Christchurch is often used on Antarctic expeditions.
Right,so it's because of where we are...coupled with our historical role.
So tell us - what is the main purpose of the centre?
Well...we have two complementary roles.
One is as a scientific base for expeditions and research and the other is as an information centre.
Tell us something about the role as a scientific base.
We're able to provide information about what scientists should take with them to the South Pole -
for example,the centre contains a clothing warehouse where expeditions are supplied with suitable clothing for the extreme conditions.
I suppose you need a bit more than your normal winter coat!
Yes,exactly and then there's also the specialist library and mapping services.
Right.And which countries are actually located at the centre?
Well... the centre houses research programmes for New Zealand,for The United States as well as for Italy...
there's even a US post office at the American air forece base here.
Really?And what does the visitor's centre offer?
Well,since very few people will ever experience the Antarctic first hand, the visitors' centre aims to recreate the atmosphere of Antarctica.
There's a mock camp site where you can see inside an Antarctic tent and imagine yourself sleeping there.
And the centre also acts as a showcase for the unique international co-operation which exists in Antarctica today.
今天,我们很高兴欢迎来自新西兰基督城,南极中心的马丁·梅里韦瑟博士为我们讲解中心的作用和南极条约。
现在,我的第一个问题是关于中心位置的选择。
为什么选在基督城,是气候的原因吗?
事实上,新西兰是第二个离南极洲最近的国家,而基督城经常用于南极探险。
好的,所以是因为我们的地理位置和历史作用。
那么,告诉我们,中心的主要目的是什么?
我们有两个互补的作用。
一个是探险研究用的科学基地,另一个是信息中心。
跟我们说说科学基地的作用。
我们为去南极的科学家提供装备信息。
例如,中心包含一个服装仓库,它为探险者在极端条件下提供适当的衣服。
我猜你要穿得比日常的冬装多一些!
没错。还有一个专业图书馆和地图服务。
好的,中心里面都有哪些国家?
中心有新西兰、美国和意大利的研究项目
,甚至在美国空军基地还有一个美国邮局在这里。
真的吗?游客中心是做什么用的?
既然很少有人亲自去过南极洲,那么游客中心的目的在于创造一个南极洲的气氛。
里面有一个模拟营地,你可以看到南极洲帐篷里面的样子,并想象自己睡在那里。
中心还像是一个展厅,展现如今位于南极洲独特的国际合作。

3.写作包答案:
<span]<span] attention,but it is only in recent years that it has been studied as a discipline in China.This is an inevitable issue relating to the development of the times,the demand of talents and the improvement of the overall quality of the nation.Someone once compared children to a piece of marble,saying that,to shape the marble into a statue,six sculptors are required: firstly,family,secondly,schools;thirdly,the group children belong to;fourthly,children themselves; fifthly,books;sixthly,occasional factors.Judging from the order,we can see family ranks first,which means femily plays a very important role in the process of cultivating children.
