2019年托福听力背景知识:地质火山(图) 地质学是托福听力中考察的重点学科之一,涉及到的具体范畴有板块构造,洞穴形成的分析,冰川移动的形式等等,在本篇文章中,我将针对地质学的另一个重点内容地震以及火山的相关信息以图解的方式为广大考生表现,让考生能够更佳生动深刻的学习并且掌握听力中关于火山和地震相关的核心背景信息。 首先,关于地震和火山现象,要放到一起来说,因为两者往往是相继发生的地质现象。 每天世界各地都会发生不起其数的有感地震,那为什么地面会震动呢? 如上图所示,我们的地球由地壳(crust),地幔(mantle)以及地核(core)组成,其中的地幔部分由超高温的金属和岩石(super-heated metal and rock)组成,温度超过1900摄氏度,而我们则生活于厚度仅有6.5千米的地壳之上。如果把地球缩小成一颗苹果,那地壳的厚度就跟苹果皮一样薄。 因为炽热的地核在持续运动,温度较高的岩石从地心升至地表,温度较低的则沉向地心。这样的温度差就会产生对流,如上图,红色代表温度高的岩石往上流动,蓝色代表温度较低的岩石往下流动,如此就会对地壳实行推压,进而将地壳分割成很多岩石块,称为地壳构造板块(tectonic plates)。这些板块依靠地幔中熔岩的流动而运动,就像溪水中的树叶一般,相遇的时候会产生摩擦(friction)。 有时一个板块会滑倒另一个下面或者压在另一个上面。当这种情况发生时,我们就会感到地震的发生。 摩擦力避免了板块频繁的运动,但这意味着当数十亿吨岩石相互撞击时,就积累了巨大的压力,迟早这个压力会变大,当大到断层发生剧烈运动时,就会印发地震(earthquake)。

托福听力背景知识—考古篇 上海环球雅思 今天,环球托福的黄维老师为大家整理了一篇关于考古学的托福听力背景知识文章分享,希望大家在做托福听力之前,能够充分对于考古学这一部分的知识有更深层的了解,以便在托福听力考试时更加得心应手。详情请看下面由环球托福老师黄维的托福听力背景知识—考古篇。 考古学: 年代测定 托福听力背景知识—考古篇之一.考古地层学 为了建立地层之间的时间关系﹐19世纪初期就形成了一些地层的基本概念。地层层序律说明地层沉积的原始位置近于水平﹐老者在下﹐新者在上。化石顺序律认为不同的地层含有不同的化石﹐可利用不同化石特征鉴别地层。19世纪地层学的主要工作是利用化石逐步建立了统一的地层系统﹐就是现代所称年代地层学。到19世纪末﹐人们发现同时期形成的地层具有不同的岩性﹐这种横向变化导出了岩相横变的概念。德国学者瓦尔特﹐J.把岩相横变同海侵作用联系起来﹐解释了时间界面同岩相界面的关系﹐称为瓦尔特定律。岩相的研究说明岩性界限在多数情况下﹐并非时间界限﹐所以除年代地层学以外﹐还须建立岩性或岩石地层学。20世纪30年代以来﹐详细的地层和生物群的对比研究建立了生物地层学。年代地层学﹑岩石地层学和生物地层学一直是地层学中的主要分支学科。50年代以後﹐由于研究范围的扩大和研究手段的发展﹐出现了不少新的地层分支学科﹐如磁性地层学﹑地震地层学﹑事件地层学﹑层序地层学等等。 托福听力背景知识—考古篇之二.利用碳-14测定年代 通过测定所发掘物质中的碳-14来鉴别时间,原理是利用碳-14的半衰期。 碳-14是碳的一种具放射性的同位素,于1940年首次被发现。它是透过宇宙射线撞击空气中的氮原子所产生,其半衰期约为5730年,衰变方式是B衰变,碳-14原子转变为氮原子。由于其半衰期达5730年,且氮是有机物的元素之一,我们可以根据死亡生物体的体内残余碳-14成分来推断它的存在年龄。生物在生存的时候,由于需要呼吸,其体内的碳-14含量大致不变,生物死去后会停止呼吸,此时体内的碳-14开始减少。由于碳元素在自然界的各个同位素的比例一直都是很稳定,人们可以透过倾测一件古物的碳-14含量来估计它的大概年龄。这种方法称之为碳定年法。 以上即使本次环球托福的黄维老师为大家整理的托福听力背景知识—考古篇文章,希望能够对大家的托福听力考试有所帮助!

托福听力背景材料——天文学 (1宇宙与星系 随着更强大望远镜的发明和科学技术的进步, 人类开始逐步深入探索宇宙的奥秘。宇宙有多老 ? 宇宙中是否还有其他生命体 ? 宇宙有多大 ? 根据哈勃望远镜测算到宇宙的年龄是:130亿年到 170亿年之间。所来一个偶然的发明, 使人们接收到宇宙微波辐射背景, 这就推算出宇宙的年龄是 137亿年, 这项技术因此还得了诺贝尔奖。而在学科上, 也出现了一个新的学科——天体生物学。天体生物学(astrobiology是天文学和生物学的交叉学科。这个学科主要研究陨石中的微生物。而这些微生物是可以随着陨石在不同的行星 (Planets之间转移的。宇宙过于浩瀚,故而,天文学家需要划分出一些区域进行研究。星系、星云、星群、星族、星座都是被划分出来的研究区域。其中, 星系是最大的区域, 比如我们地球所处的银河系就是众多星系中的一个。然而, 早期望远镜没有现在这么发达, 科学家还常常把星系误判断为星云, 比如现在我们银河系的邻居——大、小麦哲伦星云其实是星系。星系与星系之间存在互相作用并进行吞噬, 银河系吸引临近的星系就像地球和月亮间的潮汐力吸引一样。银河系会以它强烈的引力进行吞噬。银河系对这个星系是有影响的:一方面吸收了它的星球 ; 另一方面改变了它的形状, 拉长它的形状最终破坏它。天文学家还发现银河系中的某些缺金属元素的“高速星云” , 这些高速星云中和了新星上形成的金属元素。这些星云起着维持银河系中星云平衡以便生成新星的作用 月球的南极艾特肯盆地 (TPO 1. 南极 -艾特肯盆地 (South Pole-Aitken basin.简称为 SPAB 月球上最大的环形山 , 同时也是太阳系内已知最大的 , 形成了 South Pole-Aitken basin(SPAB。这个环形山位于月球的背面, 接近南极的 Aitken 盆地, 直径约 2, 500 千米, 深 12千米。该盆地层略有升高丰度的铁,钛,和钍等化学元素。

托福听力背景知识学习之植物学 托福听力备考中如果大家能了解一些各类学科的背景知识,对于托福听力提升的帮助也很大。下面就和大家分享托福听力背景知识学习,来欣赏一下吧。 托福听力背景知识学习关于植物学你了解多少? 托福听力背景知识学习之植物结构 和其他话题一样,考生对于植物学的了解并不需要多么专业,但专家提醒各位考生,至少要了解一些和植物相关的基本词汇才能理解*所要表达的内容。以一棵树为例,其组成部分主要包括了树干(trunk)、树皮(bark)、根(root)、树枝(branch/bough)、细枝(twig)、嫩芽,幼苗(shoot)、树叶(leaves)、叶柄(stalk)等。植物的花(flower)包括了花苞(bud)、花瓣(petal)、花蜜(nectar)、花粉(pollen)、雌蕊(pistil)、雄蕊(stamen)等。植物的果实(fruit)包括了果皮(peel)、果肉(flesh)、种子(seed)等,有的种子外部会包裹坚硬的壳(shell),以保护种子不受伤害。 托福听力背景知识学习之植物的光和作用(photosynthesis) 不论对于植物还是人类乃至整个地球来说,光和作用都是非常重要的过程。简单来说,光和作用就是绿色植物利用光能将其所吸收的二氧化碳(carbon dioxide)和水转化为有机物(organics),
并释放出氧气(oxygen)的过程。存在于叶子中的叶绿素(chlorophyll)和一些酶(enzyme)在光合作用中起到了举足轻重的作用。在这个过程中,植物为人类消耗了我们生产、生活中所排放的二氧化碳气体,也就是通常意义上的温室气体(greenhouse gas)。植物释放的氧气是人类生存必不可少的。同时,植物生产储存的有机物又为动物提供能量****,因此植物被称为食物链(food chain)的生产者。 托福听力背景知识学习之植物的用途 除了作为果腹的食物,植物有许多其他的重要用途。许多药物成分的提取主要是来自于植物,比如阿司匹林(asprin)的成分就源自于柳树皮(bark of willow trees);像吗啡(morphine)这类麻醉止痛剂(narcotic analgesics)则是从罂粟(opium poppy)中提取的。我们常常用来提神的咖啡(coffee)、巧克力(chocolate)、烟草(tobacco)和茶(tea)也是从植物中得来的。通过发酵(ferment)如大麦(barley)、米(rice)和葡萄(grape)这些植物,我们还能得到不同口味的美酒。 生活中,植物能为我们提供棉(cotton)、麻(hemp)等织物(fabrics),丝绸(silk)的生产也离不开桑树(mulberry tree)的存在。有的植物还能做成绳锁(rope),制作橡胶(rubber),为人类生活带来便利。
