37、ET FOUR.（分数：20.00）_专业八级-985 答案解析(总分：100.00，做题时间：90 分钟)一、PART LISTENING COM(总题数：0，分数：0.00)二、SECTION A(总题数：0，分数：0.00)三、Going Underground(总题数：1，分数：10.00)填空项 1:_ （正确答案：evil）解析：听力原文1-10Going UndergroundHello, everybody! Todays lecture is about a bold new ideagoing underground to live a life in the future

38、At first thought, it may not seem a pleasant suggestion. We have so many evil associations with the underground. In our myths and legends, the underground is the realm of evil spirits and of the dead, because dead bodies are always buried underground. And the volcanic eruptions make the underground

39、 appear to be a hellish place of fire and noxious gases. It seems to be the place of an after life of torment. However, after we explore all the advantages of living underground, it may seem to be a rather appealing idea.The first advantage to an underground life is that weather would no longer be i

40、mportant. Rain, snow, fog, hurricane, all these things are only phenomena of the atmosphere, they would not trouble the underground world. Even temperature variations are limited to the aboveground world and would not exist underground. Whether day or night, summer or winter, temperatures in the und

41、erground world would remain nearly constant. The vast amounts of energy now expended in warming our surface surroundings when they are too cold, and cooling them when they are too warm, could be saved. And also the damage done to man-made structures and to human beings by weather would be gone.Secon

42、d, local time would no longer be important. On the surface, there is always the natural and unavoidable shift between day and night. It could not be avoided that when it is morning in one place, it is noon, evening or even midnight in other places. The rhythm of human life therefore varies from plac

43、e to place. While in underground, there is no externally produced day. It is artificial lighting that produces the day and this could be adjusted to suit mans convenience. The whole world could be on an 8-hour shift, starting and ending at the same time. This is quite significant for businesses and

44、public institutions. In a highly mobile world, the universal time shift would save travelers lots of troubles. Air transportation over long distances would no longer have to bring about “jet lag.“ Travelers landing on another coast or another continent would find the time of the place they reach exa

45、ctly the same as at home.Third, the ecological structure could be stabilized. To a certain extent, it is mankind that makes the earth overcrowded. It is not only his enormous numbers that take up room; more so, it is all the structures he builds to house himself and his machines, to make possible hi

46、s transportation and communication, to offer him rest and recreation. All these things distort the wild, depriving many species of plants and animals of their natural habitat. If the works of man were removed below ground, man would still occupy the surface with his farms, his forest, his observatio

47、n towers, his air terminals and so on, but the extent of that occupation would be enormously decreased. Indeed, as the underground world becomes increasingly elaborate, even food could be supplied through hydroponic growth in artificially illuminated areas underground. The Earths surface might be increasingly turned over to park and to wilderness, maintained at ecological stability.Fourth, nature would be closer. It migh
