We can try to keep the danger f

10、rom occurring-often an impossible task. We can try to change its path or reduce its impact on existing development. We can take steps to protect future development. We can also do our best to have disaster response plans in place before they are needed.Removing the ThreatClearly, there is no way to

11、stop an eruption. We can, however, attempt to reduce the eruptions effects by strengthening structures, for example, building protective works such as walls to make lava(熔岩) flow away from developed areas. Such efforts can be and have been successful, but are of limited use in a large-scale(大范围的)eru

12、ption.Planning for the FutureProtecting future development from volcanic dangers is a simple task. Before building houses, we should judge the risk. If the risk seems too great, a safer location should be found. This type of planning is very effective, but all too often, people are drawn to the lush

13、(葱郁的), rolling land of a quiet volcano.Disaster Preparedness(预案)When a volcano comes to life, a few weeks may not be enough time to avoid a tragedy. Planning is the key to saving lives. Well before the warning signs occur, people must be educated about volcanic dangers. Escape plans must be in place

14、. Communication between scientists, officials, the media, and the general public should be practiced. Emergency measures must be thought out and agreed upon.If you doubt the importance of these efforts, take another look at past volcanic tragedies, such as the eruption of Nevado del Ruiz. Communicat

15、ion failures left the town of Armero unprepared for escape. When a deadly mudflow came down the slope(斜坡), 21,000 people-90 percent of the towns people-died.21.

17、ic eruptionC. The bravery of the people in Armero TownD. The uncertainty of volcanos damageBJohn D. Rockefeller once said: “The ability to deal with people is as purchasable a commodity (商品) as sugar or coffee. And I will pay more for that ability than for any other under the sun.”Wouldnt you suppos

18、e that every college in the land would run courses: to develop the highest-priced ability under the sun? But thats not the case.The University of Chicago and the United Y. M. C. A. Schools conducted a survey to determine what adults want to study.That survey cost $ 25,000 and took two years. The las

19、t part of the survey was made in Meriden, Connecticut. It had been chosen as a typical American town. Every adult in Meriden was Interviewed and requested to answer 156 questionsquestions such as “What is your business or profession? Your education? How do you spend your spare time? What is your inc

20、ome? Your hobbies? Your ambitions? Your problems? What subjects are you most interested in?”, and so on. That Survey revealed that health is the prime interest of adults and, that their second interest is people-how to understand, and, get along with people; how to make people like you; and howto wi

21、n others over to your way of thinking.So the committee conducting this survey decided to run such a course for adults in Meriden. They searched for a practical textbook on the subject but found nothing. Finally they approached one of the worlds outstanding authorities on adult education and asked hi

22、m if he knew of any book that met the needs of this group. “No,” he replied, “I know what those adults want. But the book they need has never been written.”I knew from experience that this statement was true, for I myself had been searching for years to discover a practical, working handbook on huma

23、n relations.Since no such book existed, I have tried to write one for use in my own courses. And here it is. I hope you like it.24. The University of Chicago and the United Y. M. C. A. Schools conducted the survey _.A. to find out what adults want to learn B. to find out what adults ambitions areC.

24、to figure out what type of person is the most popularD. to figure out the number of people who want to learn25. How was the study carried out?A. By inviting the adults to an American town.B. By asking the adults to answer some questions.C. By inviting the adults to participate in an experiment.D. By

25、 collecting the adults opinions on college education.26. What problem did the committee meet with?A. They lacked financial support B. They lacked experienced teachers.C. They couldnt attract enough students. D. They couldnt find a suitable textbook.27. Whats the authors purpose in writing the text?A

26、. To advertise a new course. B. To introduce a new survey.C. To explain why he has written a book. D. To prove human relations are important.CHumans and many other mammals have unusually efficient internal temperature regulating systems that automatically maintain stable core body temperatures（核心体温）

27、in cold winters and warm summers. In addition, people have developed cultural patterns and technologies that help them adjust to extremes of temperature and humidity（湿度）.In very cold climates, there is a constant danger of developing hypothermia（低体温）, which is a life threatening drop in core body te

28、mperature to below normal levels. The normal temperature for humans is about 37.0C. However, differences in persons and even the time of day can cause it to be as much as 6C higher or lower in healthy individuals. It is also normal for core body temperature to be lower in elderly people. Hypothermia

29、 begins to occur when the core body temperature drops to 34.4C. Below 29.4C, the body cools more rapidly because its natural temperature regulating system usually fails. The rapid decline in core body temperature is likely to result in death. However, there have been rare cases in which people have

30、been saved after their temperatures had dropped to 13.9-15.6C. This happened in 1999 to a Swedish woman who was trapped under an ice sheet in freezing water for 80 minutes. She was found unconscious, not breathing, and her heart had stopped beating, yet she was eventually saved despite the fact that

31、 her temperature had dropped to 13.7C.In extremely hot climates or as a result of uncontrollable infections, core body temperatures can rise to equally dangerous levels. This is hyperthermia. Life threatening hyperthermia typically starts in humans when their temperatures rise to 40.6-41.7C. Only a

32、few days at this extraordinarily high temperature level is likely to result in the worsening of internal organs and death.28. Why can humans keep stable body temperatures in different seasons?A. Because their bodies are unusually efficient.B. Because they experience different climates.C. Because they can adjust to cultural patterns and technologies.D. Because
