What Causes Earthquakes？
People have tried to explain the cause of earthquakes since earliest times. Some people thought that quakes were sent from heaven to punish the wicked. Others believed that the earth rested on the backs of animals. We now have more scientific explanations of the cause of these destructive earth tremors. Earthquakes are evidence that some process is at work below the surface of the earth. Large bodies of magma may be in motion. These and other internal movements can result in a sudden release of energy by breaking the overlying, brittle rocks. During earthquakes, rocks beneath the surface are clearly bent and broken. In other cases deformation takes place slowly and without recognizable earthquake shocks. For example, in a drill hole in the Great Valley of California, earth movements have been measured for years. The rocks here are moving at a rote of about one meter per century. In some places pressure slowly builds up until the rocks break and quickly snap back into position. The faulting releases energy that may have built up in the rocks for hundreds or thousands of years. This sudden burst of energy causes vibrations that travel through the rocks. These vibrations are an earthquake. Most earthquakes are so small that they can be detected only by sensitive instruments along the fault surface. However, energy may continue to trickle off in aftershocks. These shocks are much less severe than the main shock and may continue for months after the initial earthquake.
Summary:
Scientifically speaking, earthquakes are caused when【71】movements of the earth suddenly release energy by breaking the overlying rocks on the surface. During earthquake, rocks are clearly bent and broken. Elsewhere, rocks may slowly【72】over many years. Then the pressure may increase until the rocks break and snap back. This break【73】the energy in the rocks and causes vibrations. Most earthquakes are so small that they can be barely【74】, but large violent earthquakes can destroy inhabited areas. Sometimes【75】many follow after the first movement.

Section B
Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.
听力原文： There may be many people who want to work as a news reporter. Newspaper readership shows that the newspaper market is still a viable, growing industry where you can market your skills and earn a good income.
If you want to find a job in the field of news journalism then a great place to start is your local newspaper. Pretty much every town and city has one and although the events covered may not be the most exciting it will provide useful experience and will help to build up your resume. Having had local press experience can also help you if your goal is to write for the nationals. However, breaking into national market can be difficult because of the large number of writers already employed. Nationals tend to have large numbers of staff writers and these are backed up by freelancers who are already known to the papers. Like all careers there is only one route to the top —hard work and perseverance.
In addition, there is the Internet. There are thousands of commercial websites covering every imaginable area. A good web site is always on the look out for quality content, therefore there is enough space in this field. The best way to crack this market is to use Google, and it will return a list of sites that cover your particular speciality. See which ones have current news, stories, articles or technical publications, and draw up a shortlist. Contact the webmaster or editor with a proposal and a sample of your work. Please do read the contact pages on the individual sites for any comments they may have about submissions.

根据下面内容，回答题：
The majority of people in Scotland are in favor breaking away from the rest of the UK and becoming independent， according to a poll taken just before the 300th anniversary of the Act of Union，which united Scotland and England.
A pair of Acts of Parliament， passed in 1706 and 1707 that came into effect on May 1，1707， created Great Britain. The parliaments of both countries were dissolved， and replaced by a new Parliament of Great Britain in Westminster， London.
The poll showed support for independence for Scotland is running at 51%. This is the first time since 1998 that support for separation has passed 50% ， and the first time since devolution gave power to the country in 1999. Six months before elections for the Scottish Parliament， these poll results come as good news to the Scottish Nationalist Party， who are hoping to make progress against Labor and further the cause of an independent Scotland.
Many people have become disillusioned with devolution， and believe that the Scottish Parliament has failed to deliver what they had hoped it would; only a tenth has no opinion. In fact， only 39% of those polled want to keep things as they are.

One day, drought(干旱)may be a thing of the past at least in coastal cities. Vast areas of desert throughout the world may for the first time【C1】______to life and provide millions of acres of【C2】______where now nothing grows.
By the end of this century this may not be mere【C3】______. Scientists are already looking for the【C4】______of using some of the available ice in the polar regions. In these regions there are vast ice-caps formed by snow【C5】______over the past 50,000 years. Layer【C6】______.layer of deep snow means that, when melted, the snow water would be pure, not salty【C7】______sea-ice would be. There is so much potential pure water here【C8】______it would need only a fraction of it to turn much of the desert or poorly irrigated parts of the world【C9】______rich farmland. And what useful packages it would come in! It should be【C10】______to cut off a hit of ice and transport it!
【C11】______perhaps a passing iceberg(流冰)could be captured. They are always breaking away from the main caps【C12】______around, pushed by currents, until they eventually melt and are wasted. Many icebergs are, of course, far too【C13】______to be towed any distance, and would melt before they reached a country that needed them anywhere. It would be necessary to【C14】______one that was manageable and that was big enough to provide a good supply of ice when it【C15】______us. Engineers think that an iceberg up to seven miles long and one and a half miles wide could be transported【C16】______the tug pulling it was as big as a supertanker] Even then they would【C17】______only twenty miles every day. However, once the iceberg was at its【C18】______, more than 7,000 million cubic meters of water could be【C19】______from it!
That would probably be more than enough for any medium-sized city【C20】______in the hottest summer! But no doubt use could be made for it.
