历年英语四级听力真题复习第3篇

Mount Etna is one of the most active volcanoes on Earth. The mountain has been in a state of near-continuous eruption for half of a million years. Exploring the Etna geographical area reveals a history written in fire. Before the eruptions, it was covered by forests of pine trees. Located in southern Italy, Etna is the highest active volcano in Europe. However, its height often changes when volcanic material accumulates during eruptions and subsequently collapses. Few volcanoes in the world have an eruption history so thoroughly documented by historical records. Etna's eruption history dates back as far as 1500 BC. Some two hundred eruptions have been recorded down through the centuries, but compared with other volcanoes, most of its eruptions have so far been fairly light in terms of death and destruction. Only about one hundred deaths have been attributed to the volcano. The mountain hasn't been entirely harmless, however. In 1928, it destroyed the town of Mascali. Over the centuries, Etna's lowest slopes have been shaped by human hands to take advantage of rich soils for growing grapes, apples and nuts. Local people have also carved out over two hundred caves in the soft rock, and use them for everything from sacred burial places to food storage. Large mammals once wandered the volcano slopes, but today, foxes, wild cats, rabbits, and mice are more common. Some of those small mammals help to sustain such big birds as golden eagles.

埃特纳火山是地球上最活跃的火山之一。这座山近50万年来一直处于几乎连续喷发的状态。探索埃特纳的地理区域揭示了火山的历史。在火山爆发之前,它被松树林覆盖着。埃特纳火山位于意大利南部,是欧洲的活火山。然而,当火山物质在喷发期间积累并随后崩塌时,其海拔高度经常改变。世界上很少有关于火山如此详尽的历史记载。埃特纳火山喷发的历史可以追溯到公元前1500年。几个世纪以来记录了大约200次火山喷发,但与其他火山相比,到目前为止,就造成的伤亡和破坏程度而言,大多数火山喷发造成的影响都相当轻微。只有大约100人死于火山爆发。然而,这座山并非完全无害的。1928年,它摧毁了马斯卡利镇。几个世纪以来,埃特纳的低山坡都是人为开垦的,利用肥沃的土壤种植葡萄、苹果和坚果。当地居民也在软岩中挖出了200多个洞穴,并将它们用于各种用途。从神圣的墓地到食物储藏地。大型哺乳动物曾经在火山山坡上出没,但今天,狐狸、野猫、兔子和老鼠更常见。在这些小哺乳动物中,有的是被捕食者,使像金雕这样的大鸟得以生存。
