填空题Directions: You are going to read a list of headings and a
text about a park naturalist. Choose a heading from the list A-G that best fits
the meaning of each numbered part of the text. The first paragraph of the text
is not numbered. There is two extra headings which you do not need to
use.A. Becoming a Naturalist. B. Seeing
Wonder in the Ordinary. C. A Changing Role. D.
Disgusting and Embarrassing Moments. E. What does a Park
Naturalist Do? F. What does It Take to Be a Park
Naturalist? G. Management Decisions Invloved.
I have the best job in the Wisconsin State Park System. As a park naturalist at
Peninsula State Park, I am busy writing reports, creating brochures about trees
or flowers, and sometimes visiting schools. And, of course, I make sure
Peninsula's feathered friends are well fed. {{U}} {{U}}
1 {{/U}} {{/U}}As a park naturalist I am a writer, a teacher, a
historian and, if not a social worker, at least an instructor for young people
interested in the environment. I love the diversity of my job. Every day is
different. Most tasks require creativity. Now that I am an experienced
naturalist, I have the freedom to plan my own day and make decisions about the
types of programs that we offer at Peninsula. {{U}}
{{U}} 2 {{/U}} {{/U}}In my first naturalist job, I spent four out of
five days leading school field trips and visiting classrooms. As a state park
naturalist I still work with students, but more often lead programs like bird
walks, nature crafts, outdoor skills, and trail hikes. I also find myself
increasingly involved in management decisions. For example, sometimes the park
naturalist is the person who knows where rare orchids grow or where ravens nest.
When decisions are made about cutting trees, building trails, or creating more
campsites, naturalists are asked to give the "ecological perspective"
{{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}Perhaps the grossest thing
I've done as a naturalist is to boil animal skulls. Visitors like seeing bones
and skins-at least after they have been cleaned up! Once, our nature needed more
skulls. A trapper gave me muskrat, raccoon and fox skulls but I had to clean
them. First, I boiled the skin and meat off. Boy, did that smell! Then I used
dissecting tools and old toothbrushes to clean out the eyeballs. Finally, I
soaked the skulls in a bleach solution I've had some embarrassing experiences,
too. On my first hike as Peninsula's new naturalist, I was so excited that I
identified a white pine tree as a red pine tree! That's quite a mistake since
the trees are so easy to tell apart. White pine needles are in bundles of five
and red pine needles are in bundles of two. {{U}} {{U}}
4 {{/U}} {{/U}}Not all State parks are as busy or as big as Peninsula.
Not all park naturalists spend the seasons as I do. Nevertheless, Park
naturalists share certain common interests and responsibilities: A park
naturalist might notice that branches of a red maple growing in a field reach
out to the side while those of a red maple in a thick forest reach up, and
wonder why the trees look different. A naturalist makes things happen. It might
be working with workers to clean up part of a river. Park naturalists share
knowledge in different ways, but all of them communicate with people. A love of
learning from other people, from plants and animals, from books, and more is an
essential quality. Most naturalists don't work in places of rare beauty. Many
work in city parks or in places that show "wear and tear", if you can wonder
about an a pine bush, or a robin and cause others to wonder, too, then you are
ready to become a park naturalist. {{U}} {{U}} 5
{{/U}} {{/U}}If you think you want to become a park naturalist, do the
following: Explore your home landscape. Knowing how people have shaped the land
where you live and how the land has shaped them will lend a comparison that will
serve you well. Start a field sketch book Sketch what you see, where and when.
The reason is not to practice art skills (though you may discover you have a
talent) but, rather, to practice observation skills. Go to college. You will
need a 4-year degree. There are several academic routes that lead to the
naturalist's road. I have found ornithology, plant classification and human
growth and development to be among my most helpful courses. Listen and learn. A
college degree is like a ticket. It lets you board the plane but is only the
beginning of the journey. Look and listen to those who have already traveled the
road for ideas, knowledge and inspiration.

填空题{{B}}Directions:{{/B}}In the following text, some sentences have been
removed. For questions 41--45, choose the most suitable one from the list A--G
to fit into each of the numbered blank. There are two extra choices, which do
not fit in any of the gaps. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
The U.S. space agency, NASA, is planning to launch a satellite
that scientists hope will answer fundamental questions about the origin and
destiny of our universe. (41) _________________. The prevailing
theory of the universe's origin, the "Big Bang" theory, says all matter and
energy were once compressed into a tiny point. The density and resulting
temperature were so enormous that, about 13-to-15-billion years ago by current
estimates, a mighty explosion flung the matter hurtling outward in all
directions. (42) _________________. They also ask, is the expansion
accelerating? Will the universe collapse? What is its shape? Scientists will
seek explanations with NASA's new Microwave Anisotropy Probe, abbreviated as
MAP. (43) _________________. "MAP will take the ultimate baby picture, an image
of the infant universe taken in the fossil light that is still present from the
Big Bang," he says. "This glow, this radiation, is the oldest light in the
universe. Imprinted on this background, physicists knew, would be the secrets of
the Big Bang itself." This background radiation is the light and
heat that the early cosmic soup of matter emitted. Once roiling hot, it has
cooled over the eons to just a few degrees above absolute zero. It was once
thought to be distributed evenly. But in 1992, a highly sensitive NASA satellite
named COBE detected nearly imperceptible variations in temperature as tiny as
30- millionths of a degree. (44) _________________. "These
patterns result from tiny concentrations that were in the very early universe
that were the seeds that grew to become the stars and the galaxies that we see
today," he says. "The tiny patterns in the light hold the keys for understanding
the history, the content, the shape, and the ultimate fate of our
universe." (45) _________________. Princeton University
scientist David Spergel says MAP will give us a much more accurate matter count
than we have now. "Right now, we want to measure something like the
matter-density of the universe," he says. "Today, we can estimate that to a
factor of two. That's pretty good. What we want to do is be able to measure it
to about the three-percent level, which is what MAP will be capable of
doing." To do its job, the $145 million MAP spacecraft will
settle into an orbit 1. 5 million kilometers from the Earth. This is where the
Earth's and Sun's gravitational pull are equal, and well past the range of the
Earth's own obscuring microwave radiation. While the older COBE
satellite measured just a small part of the sky, Chalrles Bennett says MAP will
scan the entire sky at 1,000 times better resolution. "The patterns that MAP
measures are extremely difficult to measure," he says, "MAP will be measuring
millionths of a degree temperature accuracies, and that's hard to do. That's
like measuring the difference between two cups of sand to the accuracy of a
single grain of sand." [A] The principal NASA scientist for the
New MAP spacecraft, Charles Bennett, says the heat patterns represent slight
differences in the density of the young universe, where denser regions evolved
into the present web of structures. [B] NASA says the first
results from the MAP mission will be ready in about 18 months after
launch. [C] The spacecraft will orbit the Earth seeking answers
from an extremely faint glow of microwaves that have existed since the beginning
of time. [D] Scientists are trying to learn how it clumped
together to produce stars, clusters of stars called galaxies, and clusters of
galaxies. [E] Astronomers are reporting evidence that points to
a massive star-eating black hole at the center of our Milky Way
galaxy. [F] One of those keys is the amount of matter and its
density. More matter with a higher density me, fins mole gravitational pull,
suggesting a slowing of the universe's expansion, and perhaps even its
collapse. [G] The head of NASA's Evolution of the Universe
program, Alan Bunner, says MAP will measure what is thought h remnant of the Big
Bang--an afterglow of microwaves bathing the universe that was emitted by the
ancient cosmic matter.
