If you want to cook something quickly, you heat it from both sides.That's what's happening to the West Antarctic ice sheet(南极洲西部冰盖)．A new study reveals that the area under the ice sheet is far hotter than previously thought, fed by an unexpected flow of geothermal energy (地热能)．While the CO2　 we send out heats the atmosphere above the continent, earth is melting its ice from below.

If you were to drill (钻)deep at some place on the continents, you would find that the temperature increases about 25℃ for every kilometer deep into the hole on average.Scientists call this the geothermal gradient (地热梯度)．Until recently, no one had drilled deeply enough through the West Antarctic ice to determine the geothermal gradient underground.For the new study, researchers drilled all the way through the ice and into the mud.They found that the geothermal gradient was about 200℃，which is several times the global average on continents.Few predicted this result, although it had been showed that the earth below the West Antarctic ice is unusually hot.

Even with the new discovery, though，we still don't know exactly where the heat is coming from.One interesting possibility is volcanoes, which are under the ice.As recently as 2013, scientists were still discovering volcanoes under the ice in the area, and there may be many more.

Some people say that these volcanoes, rather than man­made climate change, are responsible for melting the area's ice.While it's true that heat coming from within the earth, including heat related to volcanoes, makes the melting faster, it is just one contributor to the loss of the West Antarctic ice sheet－not the main cause.Today's study could help us understand how the whole system, including global warming, is melting the ice.

1.What's happening to the West Antarctic ice sheet?

A. The ice sheet is getting hotter and hotter.

B. It is heated from below rather than from above.

C. The ice sheet is producing a new kind of energy.

D. It is melting from both sides.

2.What can be learned from the second paragraph?

A. It was the first time that researchers had tried to measure geothermal gradients.

B. The geothermal gradient showed where the heat came from.

C. The result was beyond the researchers' expectations.

D. Researchers never knew the earth under the West Antarctic ice was hot.

3.The author would probably agree that ________.

A. the new discovery is unhelpful without a certain conclusion

B. no volcano has been found to support the

researchers' idea

C. volcanoes are the most important reason for the melting of the ice

D. global warming is surely one reason for the melting of the ice

4.What's the main idea of the passage?

A. The West Antarctic ice sheet is in danger.

B. Researchers are trying to stop global warming.

C. The West Antarctic ice sheet's melting will bring terrible consequences.

D. It has been known how to stop the melting of the West Antarctic ice sheet.

If you happened to be at the recent National Senior Games in Albuquerque last June, it’s likely that you would have found an extremely enthusiastic group of 19 people, all wearing bright yellow T-shirts that read “Blossom at 85” on one side and "Gammy’s Groupies" on the other. “That’s my team,” says Andrea Harrison, speaking about the family and friends there to cheer her on. Harrison is certainly blossoming at 85—so much so that she walked away with gold in the 800 meters with a time of 6'24" and silver in the 5K, finishing in 43'1''.

“People often tell me that they’re inspired by my running and they are encouraged to do more to stay active because of it. ” Harrison says. “I feel like this is my job and my purpose now, to get people moving, no matter what their ages are.”

She even has a presentation she gives at community centers and schools, centering on how beneficial running and exercise can be on emotional heath as well as physical health. Calling it “Motion Over Disturbance;” she says it emphasizes how the motion of movement takes away the disturbance in your head, clearing away all those little worries and bothers of everyday life.

Harrison also likes to tell her audiences that she’s a late bloomer when it comes to running. She started when she was 50 years old, and only because of her sons, then a junior in high school, wanted to be on a track team. So the two of them ran around the parking lot of the school.

Now running 11 miles a week, she calms the “excitement” in her mind by spending her time praying for family members as she runs, particularly for her twin sister who has dementia （痴呆）. But of course she also includes her 6 children, 14 grandchildren, and 4 great-grandchildren.

There are often strangers approaching her after races to congratulate her on a win-she jokes that there “aren’t too many old ladies” for competition. “They say, ‘If you can run like this, I should be running,’ ” she says. “And I say ‘Well, go ahead. What are you waiting for?’”

1.What is Harrison’s job in her own opinion?

A.Being a member of a track team.

B.Winning gold and silver medals.

C.Encouraging people to run regardless of ages.

D.Giving lectures on the benefits of exercise.

2.Which of the following can replace the underlined part “bloomer” in Paragraph 4?

A.Competitor. B.Runner.

C.Instructor. D.Achiever.

3.What is Harrison always doing while running?

A.Listening to some music. B.Missing her family members.

C.Praying to calm down. D.Waiting for the strangers. ,

4.What can be inferred from the whole text?

A.It’s never too late to learn. B.All that glitters is not gold.

C.To strike while iron is hot. D.Well begun is half done.

If you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are.

Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety.

The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.

The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate(价钱). From then on, they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly(相应地).

With so many loopholes(漏洞) in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”.

In a society of such high moral practice, what need is there for people to be on guard against others?

1.While taking a taxi in Finland, ________.

A. a passenger can go anywhere without having to pay the driver

B. a passenger can never be turned down by the taxi driver wherever he wants to go

C. a passenger pays two US dollars for a taxi ride

D. a passenger needs to provide good faith demonstration (证明) before leaving without paying

2.We know from the passage that big hotels in Finland ________.

A. provide meals for any diners

B. are mostly poorly managed

C. provide free wine and charge for food

D. provide meal for only those who live in the hotels

3.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. The workers in Finland are paid by the hour.

B. The workers are always honest with their working hours.

C. The bosses in Finland are too busy to check the working hours of their employees.

D. The workers and their bosses will make an agreement in advance about the pay.

4.The word “those” in the last but one paragraph probably refers to ________.

A. people who are worthy of trust

B. people who often have meals in big hotels

C. people who often take taxis

D. people who are dishonest
