13、 but the 19 -year -old was different. Being a Marine, he knew exactly what he should do.

Luckily, for the turtles in Japans Hygo Prefecture, railway operators and a local aquarium teamed up to find a solution.Between 2002 and 2014,
19、disruptions (中断) of train operation caused by turtles were reported 13 times, with many more probably going unreported. That is why, in 2015, West Japan Railway Co. and Suma Aqualife Park in Kobe joint forces to prevent tragic turtle deaths on the tracks and unnecessary train delay. After running a
20、series of tests and experiments, they came up with a U-shaped ditch (沟渠 ) that collects the turtles, preventing them from getting stuck between the metal tracks and getting crushed to death.Tests showed that turtles trying to cross the train tracks often fall into the space between them, which leave
21、s them with no other option than to walk between them. Sadly, this causes some of them to get stuck between the metal tracks at junctions(交叉口), and they unavoidably get crushed to death when the points blades(叶片)move.“The turtles are basically just going about their daily business and have to cross
22、the lines to get to a pond,” a railway spokesperson said. “When the points blades move, unfortunately they get squashed between them and die. They can cause long delays to operations so we consulted with a turtle specialist to find the best way to help them.”The U -shaped concrete ditches installed
23、at several critical points along the train lines near the city of Kobe catch the turtles at danger of getting stuck between the tracks.

27、 investigate what our planet was like billions of years ago, a team of researchers turned to indirect methods of analysis at a geological site in the Australian Outback known as Panorama(全景画) in the Pilbara Craton. Today, the region is 100 kilometers inland, but 3.2 billion years ago, it was deep un
28、derwater.In fact, there were also once ancient hydrothermal vents (热水口) there where seawater bubbled up through the ocean floor. “There are no samples of really ancient ocean water lying around, but we do have rocks that interacted with that seawater and remembered that interaction,” lead author Ben
29、jamin Johnson, an assistant professor at Iowa State University, said in a statement.The researchers collected over 100 of these rock samples and found something peculiar in them: a slightly higher amount of a particular isotope (同位素) of oxygen. The vast majority of oxygen on Earth is Oxygen-16 and c
30、ontains eight protons (质子) and eight neutrons. However, about 0.20 percent is Oxygen-18.Samples from Australia show the regions ancient water contained more Oxygen-18 than present times. Since continents are covered in clay-rich soil that is efficient at trapping Oxygen-18, the team suggests that wi
31、thout continents covered in soil, more Oxygen-18 would have been present in the ocean. Their discovery indeed suggests there wasnt much dry land available 3.24 billion years ago.“Theres nothing in what weve done that says you cant have tiny, micro -continents sticking out of the oceans,” added co-au
32、thor Boswell Wing. “We just dont think there were global-scale formations of continental soils like we have today.” The researchers dont know when and how continents began to emerge out of the ocean but they plan to investigate “younger” rock formations to piece together a more precise timeline.12. Where is the research site?A. In a region deep underwater.B. In a region off Australia.C. In a region inland Australia.D. In a region outside the Pilbara Craton.13. What do the
