WHO spokesman Daniel Epstein said the microscopic ash is potentially dangerous for people when it starts to reach the Earth because inhaled particles can enter the lungs and cause respiratory problems. And he also said Europeans who go outside might want to consider wearing a mask.Other experts, however, werent convinced the volcanic ash would have a major effect on peoples health and said WHOs warnings were “hysterical.” They said volcanic ash was much less dangerous than cigarette smoke or pollution. Volcanic ash is made of fine particles of fragmented volcanic rock. It is light gray to black and can be as fine as talcum powder. During a volcanic eruption, the ash can be breathed deep into the lungs and cause irritation even in healthy people. But once it falls from a greater distancelike from the cloud currently hovering above Europeits health effects are often minimal, experts say. “Not all particles are created equal，” said Ken Donaldson, a professor of respiratory toxicology at the University of Edinburgh，“In the great scheme of things, volcanic ash is not all that harmful.” And he said most Europeans exposure to volcanic ash would be negligible and that only those in the near vicinity of the Icelandic volcano would likely be at risk.Dr. Stephen Spiro, a professor of respiratory medicine and deputy chair of the British Lung Foundation, said the further the particles travel, the more diluted and less dangerous they will be. “The cloud has already passed over northern Scotland and we havent heard of any ill effects there，” he said. Spiro said to wear masks or stay indoors to avoid volcanic ash was “over the top” and “a bit hysterical.”1The text is mainly about _.Athe effect of volcanic ash Bthe health risk of volcanic ash Cthe disadvantages of volcanic ash Dthe opinions on health risk of volcanic ash3The underlined word “hysterical” in Paragraph 3 most probably means _.AamazingBpracticalCvaluableDoverstatement 【解析】词义猜测题。由上文中volcanic ash is not all that harmful和下文中only those in the near vicinity of the Icelandic volcano would likely be at risk可知D正确， 夸大的，言过其实的。【答案】D4What can we learn from the passage?AThe volcanic ash wouldnt be harmful to people.BAll experts thought the volcanic ash did great harm to our health.CPeople close to the volcano would likely be at risk according to other experts.

The last eruption formed the mountains and valley that visitors can see today in Yellowstone.Volcano experts say it is extremely difficult to tell when Yellowstone might become an active volcano again.However, earthquakes near the volcano are usually good evidence that the volcano might become active again.In 2001 the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory was established to study the volcanic system of Yellowstone.The information will help decide if Yellowstones huge volcano is becoming a danger.Then they could warn the public quickly if necessary.Experts at the observatory say Yellowstone represents some danger to the public.It always has.However, its natural beauty also makes it a treasure that could not be possible without the sleeping giant volcano that is under Yellowstone National Park.5Why Yellowstone National Park is so popular with people around the world?ABecause it can tell people many funny stories.BBecause it can teach people much knowledge about the volcano.CIt is one of the most unusual places in the world with great natural beauty.DBecause it is a very exciting place for people to visit.【解析】细节理解题。文章的第一段第三句表明了它独特的自然美景受到人们的喜爱。【答案】C6From the passage we can know that _.Athe ancient volcano that formed Yellowstone is not dead.It is only sleepingBthe mountains and valleys that visitors can see today were formed about two million years agoCa plan is being carried out to stop the volcano erupting againDpossibly fewer and fewer people will visit Yellowstone National Park厚积薄发在本篇文章的阅读过程中，你有没有发现自己尚未掌握的或比较重要的词汇、短语或者句型？赶紧动手，把它们记下来吧！单词：_短语：_句型：_111
