2019年高中英語(yǔ) Unit5 第一學(xué)時(shí) Reading and prehension同步檢測(cè)（含解析）新人教版選修6美文欣賞The damage of a volcano eruptionHave you ever considered how weak humans are pared with the power of nature like a volcano，hurricane, flood or earthquake ?Although people can admire exciting sight of volcano eruption，it can also bring people a lot of damage.Take Mount Kilauea as an example.Its Hawaiis youngest but most active volcano, which first erupted in January,1983 and has been active ever since.Even more amazing，the eruption of Mount Vesuvio in 79 AD took the people of Pompeii by surprise causing almost all the people to have died and all the city was buried under 20 feet of stones and ashes.As a result，we need volcanologists to study volcano and reduce its damage to human beings.課文助手一、請(qǐng)將課文“An Exciting Job”翻譯成漢語(yǔ)，然后對(duì)照譯文助讀自主勘誤譯文助讀一份令人興奮的工作 我的工作是世界上最偉大的工作。我跑的地方是稀罕奇特的地方，和我一道工作的人來(lái)自世界各地。(我們)有時(shí)在室外工作，有時(shí)在辦公室里，有時(shí)工作中要用科學(xué)儀器，有時(shí)要會(huì)見(jiàn)當(dāng)?shù)匕傩蘸陀慰停俏覐膩?lái)不感到厭煩。雖然我的工作偶爾也有危險(xiǎn)。但是我并不在乎，因?yàn)槲ｋU(xiǎn)能激勵(lì)我，使我感到有活力。然而，最重要的是，通過(guò)我的工作能保護(hù)普通百姓免遭世界上最大的自然威力之一的威脅火山。20年前，作為一名火山學(xué)家，我被派到夏威夷火山觀測(cè)站(HVO)工作。我的任務(wù)是收集有關(guān)基拉韋厄火山的數(shù)據(jù)資料，這是夏威夷最活躍的火山之一。收集和評(píng)估了這些信息之后，我就幫助其他科學(xué)家一起預(yù)測(cè)下次火山熔巖將往何處流失，流速是多少。我們的工作拯救了許多人的生命，因?yàn)槿蹘r要流經(jīng)之地，老百姓都可以得到離開(kāi)家園的通知。遺憾的是，我們不可能把他們的家搬離巖漿流過(guò)的地方，因此，許多房屋被熔巖淹沒(méi)，或者焚燒殆盡。 當(dāng)滾燙的巖石從火山噴發(fā)出來(lái)并撒落回地面時(shí)，它所造成的損失比想象的要小些。這是因?yàn)樵趲r石下落的基拉韋厄火山頂附近無(wú)人居住。而像波浪一樣順著山坡緩慢下流的火山熔巖所造成的損失卻大得多，這是因?yàn)榛鹕綆r漿所流經(jīng)的地方，一切東西都被掩埋在熔巖下面了。然而，火山噴發(fā)本身的確是很壯觀的，我永遠(yuǎn)也忘不了第一次看見(jiàn)火山噴發(fā)時(shí)的情景。那是在我抵達(dá)夏威夷后的第二個(gè)星期。那天我辛辛苦苦地干了一整天，很早就上床睡覺(jué)了。我在熟睡中突然感到床鋪在搖晃，接著我聽(tīng)到一陣奇怪的聲音，就好像一列火車在我的窗外行駛一樣。因?yàn)槲以谙耐脑?jīng)經(jīng)歷過(guò)多次地震，所以對(duì)這種聲音我并不在意。我剛要再睡，突然我的臥室亮如白晝。我趕緊跑出房間，來(lái)到后花園，在那兒我能遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)地看見(jiàn)基拉韋厄火山。在山的一邊有火山噴發(fā)，紅色發(fā)燙巖漿像噴泉一樣，朝天上噴射達(dá)幾百米高。真是絕妙的奇景！ 就在這次火山噴發(fā)的第二天，我有幸作了一次近距離的觀察。我和另外兩位科學(xué)家驅(qū)車上山，到最靠近這次火山噴口的地方才下車。早先從觀測(cè)站出發(fā)時(shí)就帶了一些特別的安全服，于是我們穿上安全服再走近火山口。我們?nèi)齻€(gè)人看上去就像宇航員一樣。都穿著白色的防護(hù)服遮住全身，戴上了頭盔和特別的手套，還穿了一雙大靴子。穿著這些衣服走起路來(lái)實(shí)在不容易，但我們還是緩緩?fù)鹕娇诘倪吘壸呷?，并且向下看到了紅紅的沸騰的中央，另外兩人攀下火山口去收集供日后研究用的巖漿，我是第一次經(jīng)歷這樣的事，所以留在山頂上觀察他們。 如今，我和當(dāng)初從事這項(xiàng)工作時(shí)一樣滿懷熱情。雖然我從事火山研究很多年了，但是我至今仍對(duì)火山的壯麗景色以及它那潛在的巨大破壞力感到驚愕不已。二、課文精彩選段背誦部分I was appointed as a volcanologist working for the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory(HVO)twenty years ago.My job is collecting information for a database about Mount Kilauea，which is one of the most active volcanoes in Hawaii.Having collected and evaluated the information，I help other scientists to predict where lava from the volcano will flow next and how fast.Our work has saved many lives because people in the path of the lava can be warned to leave their houses.Unfortunately，we cannot move their homes out of the way，and many houses have been covered with lava or burned to the ground.Changbaishan is in JiLin Province，Northeast China.Much of this beautiful，mountainous area is thick forest.Changbaishan is Chinas largest nature reserve and it is kept in its natural state for the people of China and visitors from all over the world to enjoy.The land varies in height from 700 metres above sea level to over 2,000 metres and is home to a great diversity of rare plants and animals.Among the rare animals are cranes，black bears，leopards and tigers.Many people e to Changbaishan to study its unique plants and animals.Others e to walk in the mountains，to see the spectacular waterfalls or to bathe in the hot water pools.However，the attraction that arouses the greatest appreciation in the reserve is Tianchi or the Lake of Heaven.
