A volcanic eruption in Iceland has sent ash across northern Europe. Airlines have stopped or changed the flights across the Atlantic Ocean, leaving hundreds of passengers stuck in airports. Grimsvotn is one of the largest and most active volcanoes in Europe.
例
What makes Grimsvotn different is that it lies under a huge glacier (冰川) of ice up to 12 meters thick. The hot volcano heats up the ice above it, which then forms a layer (层) of water between the glacier and the volcano. This layer of water puts pressure on the volcano, keeping it stable. As the water flows out from under the glacier, the pressure lifts.
The lava (岩浆) from the volcano then comes up to the surface.This is exactly what happened today. Now, airlines have to make changes to their flights so as not to fly through the clouds of volcanic ash.According to KLM, one of Europe’s biggest airlines, airplanes cannot go under the cloud or over it. Going through the cloud can result in ash getting stuck in the airplane’ s engines, causing damage to the plane. The eruption has also caused problems for animals in Iceland. The volcano left ash and sharp, glass like rocks all over the countryside.Farmers are keeping their animals inside to stop them from eating ash covered grass or the sharp objects? 4.This text is most probably taken from________． A. a research paper B. a newspaper report C. a class presentation D. a geography textbook 【解析】 根据文章内容可知,这应该是一篇资讯报道. 【答案】 B 跟踪训练 Having one of those days or weeks—when everything seems to annoy you? Even if you do nothing about it, your bad mood will probably go away after some time. But with a little effort, you can forget it much faster—often within a day or two. Walk it off Exercise is the most popular bad-mood buster. A person who’s in a bad mood has low energy and high tension. Taking a fast ten-minute walk, or doing some quick exercises can do wonders towards changing that bad mood. Tune it out Listening to your favorite music for a while can also make tension go away quickly, because music starts associations with past positive experiences we’ve had. Give yourself a pep talk Stop and listen to what’s on your mind. Bad moods are often started by too many negative thoughts. Write them all down on paper; the pessimistic (悲观的) messages you’ve been giving yourself and then give optimistic answers. (“I still don’t have a job. “vs”I have two interviews next week.”) Reduce your stress Relaxation techniques are wonderful mood-lifters. These include deep breathing, stretching and visualizing (想象), all of which sound complicated but aren’t. One easy way to visualize: close your eyes and picture a favorite place, such as the beach. Another simple way to against distress is to make a to-do list. One reason for being in a bad mood is feeling you have no options (选择权)．By taking control over certain areas, you realize you’re not helpless. You can make changes in your mood and life. Avoid things that won’t improve your mood TV may not help much: You need to increase your energy level and stimulate your mind something—that the TV show “Neighbors” won’t do. And before you reach for that piece of cake and coffee, think about how mood and food are linked. Sugar and caffeine contribute to depressed moods. The better choice? Research shows that carbohydrates, such as potatoes and pasta, produce a calming effect in people who have a desire for them.
