mcgimsey，an american volcanologist(火山学家)part of his job includes keeping an eye on alaskas many active volcanoes and giving people a headsup when a volcano might erupt(喷发)like most jobs in the science，volcanology requires a lot of education.mcgimsey received an undergraduate degree in geology at the university of north carolina，then landed an internship(实习期) with a geologist at the usgs(美国地质勘探局) whose work field was about volcanoes.after earning a graduate degree at the university of colorado，mcgimsey accepted a job with the usgs and has been with the alaska volcano observatory for 25 years.zvolcanoes can influence the world in ways we might not think about.for example，on dec.15 1989，a 747 jetliner(a large airplane) flew through a thick ash cloud produced by mount redoubt，an alaskan volcano that hadnt erupted in 25 years.the ash caused all four engines to die，and the planes electronics went dead.“the plane was within several thousand feet of flying into the mountains below when the pilots got a couple of engines restarted and landed safely in anchorage，” mcgimsey says.it cost nearly 80 million to repair the damage to the plane.such situations show just how dangerous volcanoes can be.however，volcanologists know the risks and are prepared to protect themselves.mcgimsey admits，“there is certainly a higher danger level in volcanology than some other jobs.we understand how serious the danger is，and we dont like taking unnecessary chances.we avoid getting too close to an erupting volcano，because it is not worth injury or death simply to get a rock or a photograph.”1before working for the usgs，mcgimsey .ahad been a pilot for 25 yearsbknew nothing about the organizationchad taught at the university of north carolinadhad studied at the university of

factories，schools，railroad stations and other buildings are being renovated(翻新) for new uses.city planners and private inventors are finding that good buildings，no matter how old，can be remodeled for new purposes.“if youd asked someone four or five years ago whether hed rent an apartment in an abandoned piano factory or clothing warehouse(大商店)，hed have thought you were crazy，” says a new york architect.“today，many people are eager to do it.”only a few decades ago，renovation was unpopular and generally far more expensive than taking down abandoned(抛弃的) buildings and starting from the beginning.a change began in the 1990s with a number of welladvertised projects.they included chirardelli square in san francisco，where an old chocolate factory was renovated and made into shops and restaurants.trolley square in salt lake city，where an abandoned car warehouse became a shopping centre.what caused the change？“one reason is nostalgia (怀旧)，” a san francisco builder suggests.“maybe old is better than new，many people are saying.feelings about preserving attractive or historic buildings have changed a great deal.” a second cause is economy.the cost of tearing down an old building and constructing a new one from nothing now has risen to the point where it is often less expensive to fix a solid older structure.even when the costs of renovation are the same as or a bit more than the costs of putting up a new building，fixing the old building may be better.gradually，architects and builders are developing knowledge about renovation and preservation，bringing imagination and creativity to the job.5in the united states，renovating old creativity to the job .ahas a long history bis a new trendcis still unpopular dis out of date答案b解析细节理解题。根据文章最后一段的句子“gradually，architects and

kids hit the teenage years，parenting becomes more difficult than ever. establishing(建立) effective house rules is one of the best ways to educate teenagers. house rules must respect teenagers desire to be independent and make sure they behave responsibly.how can effective house rules be established?first of all, get your teenager to take part in making the rules, which can help keep them motivated to follow them. ask their opinion about what sorts of things they think are important when creating the rules and try to include some of their ideas.when creating the list of rules, dont list every single rule imaginable. instead, try to limit it to the ten most important rules. ive seen some parents come up with several pages of rules which turn out to be more like a rule book rather than a list. remember, it is important to make the list easy to remember and to be a basic guide.then, it is important that you write out the list of rules and hang them in a prominent (显眼的) location. keeping the rules on the refrigerator or displayed somewhere where everyone can see them is a good reminder. revise the rules whenever theres a need, not very frequently though.explain clearly in advance what negative consequences(后果) wil
