Its responsible for the geysers （间歇泉） and hot springs that define the area

17、, but for scientists at Nasa, its also one of the greatest natural threats to human civilization as we know: a potential supervolcano.When Nasa scientists came to consider the problem, they conceived a plan to drill up to 10km down into the supervolcano, and pump down water at high pressure. The cir

18、culating water would return at a temperature of around 350C （662F）, thus slowly day by day extracting （提取） heat from the volcano. But drilling into a supervolcano does not come without certain risks, namely triggering the eruption youre intending to prevent. Therefore, the idea is to drill in from t

19、he supervolcano from the lower sides, starting outside the boundaries of Yellowstone National Park, and extracting the heat from the underside of the magma chamber. “This way youre preventing the heat coming up from below from ever reaching the top of the chamber which is where the real threat arise

20、s,” Wilcox says.Such a plan could be potentially applied to every active supervolcano on the planet, and Nasas scientists are hoping that their blueprints will encourage more practical scientific discussion and debate for tackling the threat.“When people first considered the idea of defending the Ea

21、rth from an asteroid （小行星）impact, they reacted in a similar way to the supervolcano threat,” Wilcox says. “People thought, As puny （微不足道的） as we are, how can humans possibly prevent an asteroid from hitting the Earth. Well, it turns out if you engineer something which pushes very slightly for a very

22、 long time, you can make the asteroid miss the Earth. So the problem turns out to be easier than people think.

26、 who wont love hockey. A similar situation exists in America, where there are those individuals you may be one of them who yawn or even frown when somebody mentions baseball. Baseball to them means boring hours watching grown men in funny tight outfits standing around in a field staring away while v

27、ery little of anything happens. They tell you its a game better suited to the 19th century, slow, quiet and gentlemanly. These are the same people you may be one of them who love football because theres the sport that glorifies “the hit”.By contrast, baseball seems abstract, cool, silent and still.O
