25、ns YAC has an amazing opportunity for budding(崭露头角的) archaeologists of all ages, in Sunderland in Tyne and Wear. Thanks to funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, professional archaeologists from Wardell Armstrong will be investigating an archaeological mystery and they need your help.Romans?“The si
26、te is a bit of a mystery”, Frank Giecco from Wardell Armstrong said. “There is a very nice cropmark recorded on the site that has got lots of people very excited. Geophysicists failed to find anything relating to the cropmark. There is anecdotal evidence of Roman material being found, but nothing is
27、 officially recorded. We hope to finally answer the question of what is in this field, during the two weeks on site. Is there evidence of any Roman occupation on the site? Can you help us find out?”Get involvedThis is an opportunity for both adults and children to take part in field walking and tria
28、l trenching (small hand-dug test pits for children). No experience is necessary, training will be provided by the professional archaeologists from Wardell Armstrong, and all equipment will be provided. Volunteers can attend for as few or as many days as they wish, but they do need to book a place.Fo
29、r more information, and to book your place, please contact Norman Kirtlan at .56If you intend to take part in the activity, you _.Awill be charged for using equipmentBwill be coached by experts in the fieldCshould have worked with archaeologists beforeDshould spare two weeks to stay at the site57Wha
30、ts the main purpose of the passage?ATo seek funding for archaeological research.BTo appeal for help in proving findings based on anecdotal evidence.CTo find volunteers to help solve an archaeological mystery.DTo organize volunteers to help sort our data on the Roman occupation.BListening to a radio
31、broadcast in a foreign language is difficult for many of us. We may have studied the language for several years, and are able to read it, perhaps even write in it. But listening and understanding the spoken language require special skills. Some people have a natural ability that helps them to learn
32、a language quickly, while others must study for a long time. Everyone, however, can improve his or her listening skills with practice.We are good listeners in our own language because we have had years of practice. We understand the grammar and the language. We know what to expect a person to say to
33、 us in almost any situation. We have been in similar situations many times, and we have heard it all before. We can understand it, even if we do not listen carefully.But this is not true with a foreign language. We must listen with our full attention. And we must try not to let the cultural style of
34、 our language affect our understanding of the foreign language. Listening to a foreign language broadcast is easier if we know something about it. There are clues that can help us. One clue is the time of a day. Morning programs usually contain many short items of news, information or entertainment.
35、 The items are short because most of us are getting ready to go to work in the morning. Often we do not have time to listen to long programs. Evening programs are different. There is time for more details about the subjects discussed.We can get a clue about the program from the music at the beginnin
36、g, but we must be familiar with the music of the foreign culture. The kind of musicserious and slow, or fast and lightcan tell us what kind of program to expect. The name of the program can give us good information about what it will contain.Another good clue is the broadcaster. The more we listen t
37、o the same person, the easier it will be to understand him. His speaking style will become familiar to us. Further, the broadcaster provides clues to the organization of the broadcast at the beginning of the program. The broadcaster usually gives us the highlights of the program to prepare us for th
38、e details that will follow.58We are good listeners in our own language because _.Awe have a natural ability of learning languageBour own language is much easierCwe listen to our own language more carefullyDwe have practiced it for years59If you dont have enough time, you can listen to _.Aevening pro
39、grams Bprograms with soft musicCmorning programs Dfamiliar programs60You can know the information of the program according to _.Aits name Bthe broadcaster Cits music Dthe time of the programCCalifornia has been facing droughts for many years, with certain areas even having to pump freshwater hundred
40、s of miles to their distribution system. The problem is growing as the population of the state continues to expand. New research has found deep water reserves under the state which could help solve their drought crisis. Previous drilling of wells could only reach depths of 1,000 feet, but due to new
41、 pumping practices, water deeper than this can now be extracted (抽取). The team at Stanford investigated the aquifers (地下蓄水层) below this depth and found that reserves may be three times what was previously thought.It is profitable to drill to depths more than 1,000 feet for oil and gas, but only rece
42、ntly in California has it become profitable to pump water from this depth. The aquifers range from 1,000 to 3,000 feet below the ground, which means that pumping will be expensive and there are other concerns. The biggest concern is the gradual setting down of the land surface. As the water is pumpe
43、d out, the vacant space left is pressed by the weight of the earth above.Even though pumping from these depths is expensive, it is still cheaper than desalinating (脱盐) the ocean water in the largely coastal state. Some desalination plants exist where possible, but they are costly to run and can need
44、 constant repairs. Wells are much more reliable sources of freshwater, and California is hoping that these deep wells may be the answer to their severe water shortage.One problem with these sources is that the deep water also has a higher level of salt than shallower aquifers. This means that some w
45、ater may even need to be desalinated after extraction, thus increasing the cost. Research from the study of groundwater has just been published. New estimates of the water reserves now go up to 2,700 billion cubic meters of freshwater.61According to the text, what causes the water crisis in Californ
46、ia?APrevious drilling of wells. BThe messy distribution system.CConstant droughts in the area. DThe adoption of new pumping practices.62The research teams think it _ to extract water from deeper aquifers.Aexpensive but practical Breliable and profitableCcost-free but demanding Dcheap and environment-friendly63What is mentioned as a con
