13、山学家，我被派到夏威夷火山观测站(HVO)工作。我的任务是收集有关基拉韦厄火山的数据资料，这是夏威夷最活跃的火山之一。收集和评估了这些信息之后，我就帮助其他科学家一起预测下次火山熔岩将往何处流失，流速是多少。我们的工作拯救了许多人的生命，因为熔岩要流经之地，老百姓都可以得到离开家园的通知。遗憾的是，我们不可能把他们的家搬离岩浆流过的地方，因此，许多房屋被熔岩淹没，或者焚烧殆尽。当滚烫的岩石从火山喷发出来并撒落回地面时，它所造成的损失比想像的要小些。这是因为在岩石下落的基拉韦厄火山顶附近无人居住。而像波浪一样顺着山坡缓慢下流的火山熔岩所造成的损失却大得多，这是因为火山岩浆所流经的地方，一切东西都

14、被掩埋在熔岩下面了。然而，火山喷发本身的确是很壮观的，我永远也忘不了第一次看见火山喷发时的情景。那是在我抵达夏威夷后的第二个星期。那天我辛辛苦苦地干了一整天，很早就上床睡觉了。我在熟睡中突然感到床铺在摇晃，接着我听到一阵奇怪的声音，就好像一列火车在我的窗外行驶一样。因为我在夏威夷曾经经历过多次地震，所以对这种声音我并不在意。我刚要再睡，突然我的卧室亮如白昼。我赶紧跑出房间，来到后花园，在那儿我能远远地看见基拉韦厄火山。在山的一边有火山喷发，红色发烫岩浆像喷泉一样，朝天上喷射达几百米高。真是绝妙的奇景！就在这次火山喷发的第二天，我有幸作了一次近距离的观察。我和另外两位科学家驱车上山，到最靠近这次

15、火山喷口的地方才下车。早先从观测站出发时就带了一些特别的安全服，于是我们穿上安全服再走近火山口。我们三个人看上去就像宇航员一样。都穿着白色的防护服遮住全身，戴上了头盔和特别的手套，还穿了一双大靴子。穿着这些衣服走起路来实在不容易，但我们还是缓缓往火山口的边缘走去，并且向下看到了红红的沸腾的中央，另外两人攀下火山口去收集供日后研究用的岩浆，我是第一次经历这样的事，所以留在山顶上观察他们。如今，我和当初从事这项工作时一样满怀热情。虽然我从事火山研究很多年了，但是我至今仍对火山的壮丽景色以及它那潜在的巨大破坏力感到惊愕不已。二、将下列单词或词组译成英语，然后参阅Unit 5的词汇表自主勘误。1在旁边 adv.沿着的边 prep._2任命，委派 v_3波浪 n波动 vi.挥动_4绝对的 adj._5套装 n适合 v_6潜在的 adj.潜能 n_7实在的，实际的 adj._1alongside2.appoint3.wave4.absolute5.suit6.potential7.actual8射中，射伤 v_9忧虑的 adj._10惊慌 v&n._11保证，担保 v_12前往_13匆匆看一遍_14由到不等_8.shoot9.anxious10.panic11.guarantee12.make ones way13.glance through14.vary from.to.祝您
