First, you have some time to look at questions twenty-one to twenty-five. 00:00:21,040 Now listen carefully and answer questions twenty-one to twenty-five. 00:00:58,580 Hi, Sarah. It's great that we've got some free time this afternoon to decide what advice to give when we talk to the students on the geology field trip to Iceland. 00:01:08,080 Hi, Andrew. Yes, I've already jotted down a few ideas about the issues that come up on these trips. 00:01:14,920 We should include something about existing rules and laws that apply, like the country code. 00:01:20,420 Or the mountain code. 00:01:22,140 Yes, the country code is mainly just common sense. So let's include the mountain one. That's what they need to know about for geology. Then there are similar guidelines for caving, but they won't need those in the part of Iceland we're going to. 00:01:35,980 Okay. 00:01:37,300 Right. Let's think about when they're on site and looking after the environment. I don't mean not dropping litter. That's obvious. Or like closing gates. But what about not scaring birds or damaging rare plant life? Actually, what I think happens is that they all become so focused on what they're doing that they forget about other things around them. It's not intentional damage. 00:01:59,920And we have to include something about collecting samples. That's vital for geology students. 00:02:05,080 Yeah. There's quite a list of rules about that. For example, only take minute samples and only if necessary. 00:02:11,880 Yes, that's the golden rule. That has to come first. And then I guess never take a fossil away from the area. 00:02:18,500 And when you do disturb an area to take a sample, make sure you leave it as you found it. 00:02:23,600 Okay. 00:02:24,660 And there's something we still have to find out about. Isn't there something about how you can never take a sample from a wall? 00:02:31,760 You mean a man-made wall or something like a natural rock face? 00:02:35,220 A wall, like of a building. 00:02:37,580 Don't you just have to get permission from the owner? But I'm not sure, to be honest, so we need to check that. Another really important thing is advice on safety, especially as a lot of our trips are along the coast. 00:02:49,320 Yes, well, you can usually hear if any large boulders start to tumble down a cliff. 00:02:54,020 And you realize you're on soft sand when you start sinking. But when people are working on the seashore, they often fail to notice that the tides come in, and they're cut off by water. That's what we should make a point about. 00:03:05,760 Okay. 00:03:09,600 Before you hear the rest of the discussion, you have some time to look at questions twenty-six to thirty. 00:03:19,360 Now listen and answer questions twenty-six to thirty. 00:03:48,200 Before we do anything else, could we just talk about the reading packs we put together for the students to read before they go on the field trip to Iceland? 00:03:55,800 Absolutely. They'll need to do most of the reading beforehand because there won't be time while we're away, and there's a lot of technical data. That's certainly the case in the pack called Geothermal Fields. 00:04:07,720 Does that cover industrial uses of geothermal energy? 00:04:10,880 No, it deals with harnessing the heat generated from the earth in geothermal areas to grow vegetables for local consumption. They'll need to understand the geological characteristics that make this possible. 00:04:22,220 Right. The reading pack called The Hot Spot will help them understand how Iceland differs from other islands formed at the same time, like Bermuda and the Canary Islands. It's the existence of the hot spot that explains the rock formations of this island and makes it unlike any of the others. 00:04:38,460 Now, I definitely think they should read the pack about glaciers. They need to be aware that although the ice and glaciers up in the mountains can stay frozen for thousands of years, if anything happens to make the glaciers melt suddenly, the water produced pours down the valleys, and it can mean that whole villages suddenly have to be evacuated. 00:04:56,780 Right. Then the Basalt Rock pack shows how Iceland's landscape, like many other islands, has been molded over millions of years by lava flows from volcanic eruptions, especially the area in the northwest of the island. 00:05:09,500 And lastly, reading about geothermal power plants will inform them of Iceland's plan to stop using energy derived from carbon in the future. Heating and electricity will come from sustainable sources which won't cause any pollution. 00:05:23,220 I think that'll be all the reading they'll have time for. 00:05:29,180 That is the end of part three. You now have thirty seconds to check your answers to Part three. ## 题目与答案 ### 21. 21 Why do Andrew and Sarah decide to mention the Mountain Code? 21 Why do Andrew and Sarah decide to mention the Mountain Code? - it is the most relevant to their field trip - it also applies to caves - it covers the whole country **答案**：it is the most relevant to their field trip 原文定位：So let's include the mountain one. That's what they need to know about for geology. Then there are similar guidelines for caving, but they won't need those in the part of Iceland we're going to 同义替换：「most relevant to their field trip」↔「what they need to know about for geology」 ### 22. 22 Andrew suggests some field trip participants harm the environment because 22 Andrew suggests some field trip participants harm the environment because - they fail to recognize rare species of plant - they don't realize how fragile the environment is - they get too absorbed in their tasks **答案**：they get too absorbed in their tasks 原文定位：But what about not scaring birds or damaging rare plant life? Actually, what I think happens is that they all become so focused on what they're doing that they forget about other things around them. It's not intentional damage 同义替换：「harm the environment」↔「damaging rare plant life」；「get too absorbed in their tasks」↔「become so focused on what they're doing」 ### 23. 23 Which rule about taking samples is most important? 23 Which rule about taking samples is most important? - leave the area in its natural state - avoid removing fossils - keep collecting to a minimum **答案**：keep collecting to a minimum 原文定位：For example, only take minute samples and only if necessary. Yes, that's the golden rule. That has to come first ### 24. 24 Which aspect of taking samples do they still have to find out about 24 Which aspect of taking samples do they still have to find out about - taking them from private land - taking them from rock faces - taking them from man-made structures **答案**：taking them from man-made structures 原文定位：And there's something we still have to find out about. Isn't there something about how you can never take a sample from a wall? You mean a man-made wall or something like a natural rock face? A wall, like of a building. Don't you just have to get permission from the owner? But I'm not sure, to be honest, so we need to check that 同义替换：「still have to find out about sampling」↔「need to check the rule of sampling from walls」；「man-made structures」↔「building walls」 ### 25. 25 What danger in coastal areas do they decide to emphasizes? 25 What danger in coastal areas do they decide to emphasizes? - failing rock - tidal movements - unstable sand **答案**：tidal movements 原文定位：But when people are working on the seashore, they often fail to notice that the tides come in, and they're cut off by water. That's what we should make a point about ### 26. Geothermal Fields Geothermal Fields - unique geological features of Iceland - replacement of fossil fuels - negative changes due to human activity - energy for agriculture - health risks of eruptions - risk of flooding **答案**：energy for agriculture 原文定位：No, it deals with harnessing the heat generated from the earth in geothermal areas to grow vegetables for local consumption ### 27.
