tpo51托福阅读passage1：originsofthemegaliths原文文本+真题答案TPO51托福阅读passage1：Origins of the Megaliths原文文本+真题答案第一篇：考古类Origins of the MegalithsSince the days of the earliest antiquarians, scholars have been puzzled by the many Neolithic (~4000 .~2200 .) communal tombs known as megaliths alongEurope's Atlantic seaboard. Although considerable variations are found in the architectural form of these impressive monuments, there is a general overriding similarity in design and, particularly, in the use of massive stones.The construction of such large and architecturally complex tombs by European barbarians struck early prehistorians as unlikely. The Bronze Age seafaring civilizations that lived in the region of the Aegean Sea (~ 3000 .~ 1000 .), among whom collective burial and a diversity of stone-built tombs were known, seemed a probable source of inspiration. It was suggested that Aegean people had visited Iberia in southwestern Europe in search of metal ores and had introduced the idea of collective burial in massive tombs, which then spread northward to Brittany, Britain, North Germany, and Scandinavia.Radiocarbon dates for a fortified settlement of megalith builders at Los Millares in Spain appeared to confirm this picture, though dates for megaliths in Brittany seemed too early. When calibrated, however, it became clear that radiocarbon dates were universally too early to support a Bronze Age Aegean origin. It is now clear that the megaliths are a western and northernEuropean invention, not an introduced idea. Even so, they are still a subject of speculation and inquiry. What induced their builders to invest massive efforts in erecting such monumental tombs How was the necessary labor force assembled What underlies their strikingsimilaritiesOne answer to the last question was proposed by Professor Grahame Clark, one ofBritain's greatest prehistorians. Investigating the megaliths of southern Sweden, he noted that one group was concentrated in coastal locations from which deep-sea fish such as cod, haddock, and ling could have been caught in winter. Historically, much of the Atlantic was linked by the travels of people who fished, and this could well have provided a mechanism by which the megalith idea and fashions in the style of tomb architecture spread between coastal Iberia, Brittany, Ireland, western England and Scotland, and Scandinavia. The high concentrations of megaliths on coasts and the surprising number of megaliths found on small islands may support a connection with fishing.Professor Colin Renfrew of the University of Cambridge, England, however, views the similarities as similar responses to similar needs. At the structural level, the passage that forms a major element of many graves could have been devised independently in different areas to meet the need for repeated access to the interior of these communal tombs. Other structural resemblances could be due to similarities in the raw materials available. In answer to the question of why the idea of building monumental tombs should arise independently in a number of areas, he cites the similarities in their backgrounds.Most megaliths occur in areas inhabited in the postglacialperiod by Mesolithic hunter-gatherers (~20000 . ~ 18000 . ). Their adoption of agriculture through contact with Neolithic farmers, Renfrew argues, led to a population explosion in the region and consequent competition for farmland between neighboring groups. Inthe face of potential conflict, the groups may have found it desirable to define their territories and emphasize their boundaries. The construction of megaliths could have arisen in response to this need.Renfrew has studied two circumscribed areas, the Scottish islands of Arran and Rousay, to examine this hypothesis more closely. He found that a division of the arable land into territories, each containing onemegalith, results in units that correspond in size to the individual farming communities of recent times in the same area. 【】Each unit supported between 10 and 50 people. 【】The labor needed to put up a megalith would probably be beyond the capabilities of a community this size. 【】 But Renfrew argues that the cooperation of other communities could be secured by some form of recognized social incentive perhaps a period of feasting at which communal building was one of several activities. 【】Most megaliths contain collective burials. Different tombs used different arrangements, but there seems to have been an underlying theme: people placed in these tombs were representative of their society, but their identity as individuals was not important. The tombs belonged to the ancestors, through whom the living society laid claim to their land. This interpretation reinforces Renfrew’s view of the megaliths a s territorial markers.题目word "collective"in the passage is closest in meaning togroundto paragraph 2, early prehistorians thought the Aegean people of the Bronze Age might have influenced megalith building along the Atlantic seaboard because theyestablished commercial routes along the Atlantic seaboard been in Iberia, where they introduced the idea of burial in very large tombsthought to have found megaliths in Iberia when searching for metals thought to have passed along the concept of burial in monumental tombs as they explored Brittany, Britain, North Germany, and ScandinaviaParagraph 2 is marked withparagraph 3, why does the author discuss the results of radiocarbon datessupport the idea that megaliths spread rapidly during the Bronze Age question the idea that megaliths have a religious originprovide evidence against the theory that Bronze Age Aegean inspired the megalithsargue that the megaliths in Brittany are older than the megaliths in Los MillaresParagraph 3 is marked withword "erecting" in the passage is closest in meaning toto paragraph 4, what did Professor Clark propose as a result of studying the megaliths of southern Swedenmegaliths are nearly identical to megaliths elsewhere.who traveled for fishing may have been responsible for the spread of megaliths in Europe.megaliths were probably built after other European megaliths were built.in Europe were usually located near sites for deep-sea fishing in winter.Paragraph 4 is marked withis the purpose of discussing the passage that forms a major element of many gravesprovide an example of a commonly occurring feature of megaliths that might be related to a similar needargue that similarities in raw materials were responsible for thesimilarity of passagesexplain how repeated access to the interior of the communal tombs was possibleprovide evidence that the builders of the megaliths had similar backgrounds Paragraph 5 is marked withword "consequent" in the passage is closest in meaning to to paragraph 6, Professor Renfrew has argued that one factor leading to the rise of megaliths in Europe wasadoption of farming by Mesolithic hunter-gathererstransition from a glacial to a postglacial climaterelocation of Mesolithic populations from one region to anotherconflict over whether areas inhabited by Mesolithic peoples would be used for farmingParagraph 6 is marked withphrase style "this hypothesis" in the passage refers to the idea that was competition for territory between Mesolithic hunter-gathers and invading Neolithic farmerspopulation explosion brought about a division of theregion's Neolithicfarmers into neighboring groupsneed of neighboring groups to define their territories led to the construction of megalithsconstruction of megaliths was a way of competing for farmlandto paragraph 7, what did Renfrew conclude about the megaliths ofArran and Rousaymegalith was associated with a specific agricultural community.megalith was built by between 10 and 50 people.megaliths were built using stones quarried at other places.megaliths were built gradually over time rather than all at once.

The thing I often take up in my leisure time is surfing the internet. The information on the internet can enable me to understand the world better. And it helps me to become a more successful person. When I was selecting which university and which major to take after I graduated from the high school, the internet gave me a lot of useful information about the future of some of my prospective professions. I even talked with several people in those particular professions and got their opinions about it. And I think it is really helpful. (96)

TPO51托福阅读passage3：The Role of the Ocean in Controlling Climate原文文本+真题答案
TPO51托福阅读passage3:The Role of the Oceanin Controlling Climate原文文本+真题答案第三篇：社会学The Role of the Ocean in Controlling ClimateTo predict what the climate will be like in the future, scientists must rely on sophisticated computer models. These models use mathematical equations to represent physical processes and interactions in the atmosphere, ocean, and on land. A starting point is usually based on current measurements or estimates of past conditions. Then, using a spherical grid laid out over the entire globe,thousands of calculations are performed at grid intersections to represent and assess how conditions in the air, in the sea, and on land will change over time. Because of their complexity and size, supercomputers are used to run full-scale climate models. Much of the uncertainty in their outputs comes from the way that various aspects of the climate are represented by different models, and even more so, because there are aspects of climate that are not well understood—one of which is how the ocean impacts climate.The ocean’s role in global warming stems principally from its huge capacity to absorb carbon dioxide and to store and transport heat. In the sea, photosynthesis by marine plants and algae, especially phytoplankton, removes great quantities of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Hence, the greater the growth (productivity) of phytoplankton in the sea, the greater the removal of carbon dioxide. But what controls the ocean’s productivity? There are several limiting factors, but results from a recent experiment suggest that in areas of the ocean where other nutrients are plentiful, iron may be one ofthe most important and, until recently, unrecognized variables controlling phytoplankton production. Some have proposed a radical, highly controversial and uncertain means to counteract global warming —adding iron to the oceans to induce phytoplankton blooms. Perhaps increased phytoplankton growth would use up a significant amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, but perhaps not, and there might well be side effects that could be detrimental to the ocean ecosystem.Within the ocean, the production of limestone, in the form of calcium carbonate skeletons or shells, also reduces atmospheric carbon dioxide. However, when deposits of limestone become exposed and weathered on land or are recycled in the sea, carbon dioxide is released back into the atmosphere. What is not well understood is how much carbon dioxide resides in the sea and at what rate it is taken up and recycled. Relatively new research has also discovered beneath the sea a new and potentially significant threat to skyrocketing Earth temperature: gas hydrates. Gas hydrates are a solid, crystalline form of water, like ice, except that they contain additional gas, typically methane, and are often found stored in ocean sediments. Increased ocean temperatures could cause gas hydrates to dissociate, releasing massive amounts of methane gas into the atmosphere and cause undersea landslides in the process. Consequently, hydrates may, if released, significantly increase global warming as well as create a geologic hazard to offshore drilling operations.The ocean is also a great reservoir and transporter of heat. Heat from the ocean warms the atmosphere and fuels tropical storms. Heat is transported by currents from the equator to the poles. Ocean circulation is strongly controlled by wind and by the sea’s balance of salt and heat. Scientists think that climate warming may slow down circulation, while cooling may speed it up, but these responses are not well understood. Evaporation from the ocean also supplies the precipitation that creates fields of snow and ice at high latitudes. Snow and ice coverage change thereflectivity Earth’s surface and are an important influence on how much incoming radiation is either absorbed or reflected. Furthermore, clouds and water vapor in the atmosphere come mainly from the sea and strongly influence climate. Surprisingly, clouds are one of the least understood and most poorly modeled parts of the climate change equation. Most climate modeling grids fail to take into account common-sized cloud formations. Aerosols, tiny particles of soot, dust, and other materials, are thought to seed cloud formation scatter incoming radiation and promote cooling, but this effect, which would counteract warming, is also only superficially understood. Computer models of climate change must take into account all of the processes within the ocean, over land, and in the sky that potentially influence warming. No wonder there is such uncertainty.题目Paragraph 1To predict what the climate will be like in the future, scientists must rely on sophisticated computer models.

Sample answer： Most of people choose their jobs according to their own working perceptions(理解), so their expectations for jobs are different.Each viewpoint has its advantages. For the former one, the constant job can provide people with stability, which will stimulate them to work harder. While, for the latter one, people will face more challenges and opportunity when jumping to another job.However, there are also downsides for the two points. When people have worked for a company for a long time, they may easily lose the innovation(创新), because they are too comfortable to change their current working conditions. Those who often change their jobs have to acquire time for them to adapt to new surroundings, which brings obstacles to a company at the rapid development.

I will choose to visit a business office because my dad is a businessman and he has had a lot of influence on me growing up in my family. You know, he never allows me to visit his office since he is afraid of taking care of me at his workplace. So, I’ve been so curious about his office.Besides, I’ve been planning on setting up my own company after graduation. Designing a business office is one of the major issues. I believe, visiting other’s business office will give me some creative ideal and inspiration.I’d like to participate in a cooking program teaching children how to make healthy food on their own because this program can improve children’s independence. When I was a kid and I didn’t know how to cook by myself, my parents took care of my diet and I gradually became more reliant on them. So a cooking program might improve independence.Besides, this program can improve their awareness of eating healthy food and keeping fit. Nowadays, a lot of children are overweight and some children even have high blood pressure and high blood sugar. Therefore, if I can take part in the program, I will be able to help children live healthier lifestyles.I think sports are the best for children because sports help children to keep fit. I was really overweight back in elementary school since I ate too much junk food. Afterwards, I started to play basketball and gradually lost some weight, which made me healthier.Besides, doing sports is all about concentration, cooperation, perseverance and so on .So doing sports allows children to develop those qualities. Let’s say my best friend Judy. She used to be a person who gets distracted easily. However, since she started practicing yoga, she learned how to focus. Now she could even concentrate on a history seminar for 3 hours straight.I’d like to talk about the sculpture skills that I am proficient in. It’s important to me because my dad is a sculpture professor in college and he had a lot of influence on me growing up in my family. You know, he started training me when I was 6 years old and I have been practicing for almost 10 years. Being good at sculpture makes my dad feel so proud.Besides, doing sculpture allows me to improve some qualities. Basically, doing sculptures is all about concentration and persistence. Yousee, I used to be a person who gets impatient easily. After practicing sculpture for so many years, I can focus on what I am doing and never get distracted. Whenever I make up my mind to do something, I can always stick to the plan until the result comes out. Swimming is a basic skill for everyone. I mean, is is a survival skill. Let’s say, if emergencies happen, I may be able to save my own life or other people’s lives. If Ido not know how to swim and I fall into deep water accidentally, I may get myself killed.Playing baseball is a good way to help me relax. You know, when I play basketball I focus on the skills, teammates, competitors and so on, which means I do not have time to think about my assignments, exams, projects, etc. Even though I might have a lot of pressure from school and parents. Playing basketball allows me get away from reality for a while.Playing football allows me to get some exercise and keep fit. Actually, I used to be very overweight. However, I have gradually got my body in shape through all these years by playing footballsPlaying piano is very challenging and it improved my concentration and coordination. You see, when I play the piano, I need to look at the music notes, thekeys, and think about the chords. That is to say, doing multi tasks at the same time requires me to balance my eyes, hands and feet. Infact, I find it very easy to focus on tasks since I started to practice playing piano.I’d like to improve my painting skill. First, I would buy some tutorial and I learn some theories about coloring, structuring and so on. Right now I have difficulties putting subjects together and I don’t really know where to leave space blank. You know, sometimes my works look rather chaotic. So learning some theories would give ideas.S econd, I would go out and observe other people’s works. Every time I visit the galleries in my town and appreciate other people’s works, I can always get some inspiration. Observing other’s works allows me to imagine where the inspiration comes from. You see, painting is not only about theories or imitation, but also about creation. I believe visiting galleries more often would help me create better works.I’d rather play a musical instrument because my dad plays guitar and he has had a lot of influence on me growing up in my family. You know, I have been watching him play guitar since I was 8 years old. So learning how to play guitar means a lot to both my dad and me. If I knew how to play, I think my dad would be very proud of me.Besides, playing a musical instrument will allow me to express my emotions. Like my dad, I am not a sports type and I don’t relax by doing sports. You see, my dad often release his pressure by playing guitar and making various styles of music, such as rock &roll, blues, jazz and so on. Different music pieces express the feelings that he experiences.I prefer to start early because I will be able to produce a paper of high quality. If I start early, Iwill have enough time to determine the topics for my paper assignments and read references as much as I could.Generally,I can revise the paper assignments and produce better version.However, if I start to work on the paper assignment the day before the due date, I will feel stressed out. I still remember my last history paper assignment. I started out the night before deadline. You see, I was struggling with the topics, the format, the references, etc. Eve\rything was a mess, I couldn’t think clearly that night since I had too much pressure in one night.I prefer a high-paying job that requires me to travel a lot because high-paying job is much more satisfying. Although I might have to travel a lot, a high payment means that my efforts will pay off, which is worthwhile. If I do not travel and only have a low payment, I might lose confidence.Besides, I love traveling and it will expand my perspective. If I travel,I will know more about other cultures and customs, other countries’ working fashion and so on. These experiences will allow me to improve interpersonal skills and problem solving skills.Personally, I think students should have work experience before attending college.One reason is that taking part-time jobs can help students grow up from children into adults, because this work experience can definitely allow them to cultivate independence among young people and help prepare them for the competiveness of the work place, which is important for students in the future.Furthermore, working helps build up students’ pockets. With the money earned, they can buy whatever they want, and also learn how to budget their money correctly. Meanwhile, they are able to relieve the economic burdens on their parents.For these reasons, I would definitely recommend that all students undertake work experience before college.。
托福口语答案范文
托福口语答案范文Let's start with a topic, say, "Describe your favorite place to travel."Well, for me, my favorite place to travel is Paris. Paris is just amazing! It has so much to offer. There are those beautiful old buildings everywhere. You know, like the Eiffel Tower. Just looking at it gives you this feeling of awe.I think when answering this kind of question in the TOEFL speaking test, it's really important to be specific. Don't just say "Paris is beautiful." But tell them why. For example, I could say that the architecture in Paris makes it seem like you've stepped back in time. The narrow cobblestone streets and the old cafes on every corner. It's like you're living in a postcard!And also, don't forget to add your personal feelings. I always feel so relaxed and inspired when I'm in Paris. It's not just about the sightseeing. It's the whole atmosphere. You can sit in a park, watch the people go by, and just soak up the culture. This is something that really makes Paris stand out for me.Another thing is, try to use some vivid language. Instead of saying "I like Paris," you could say "I'm head over heels for Paris!" It makes your answer more interesting, right? And it shows your English skills better too.When talking about your experiences in Paris, share some unique stories if you can. For instance, I once got lost in a small alley in Paris, but it turned out to be an adventure. I found this little local art gallery that was not on any tourist maps. It was such a cool discovery!Now, let's think about how to organize this into a proper TOEFL speaking answer. You don't have to be super formal. Just start with a clear statement like "My favorite place to travel is Paris." Then go on to describe what makes it special. Add your personal feelings and experiences along the way.You might be thinking, how long should this answer be? Well, it depends on the time limit given in the test. But generally, you want to make sure you cover all the main points clearly without rambling on too much.I find that if you can paint a vivid picture in the examiner's mind, you're on the right track. It's like you're taking them on a virtual tourof Paris with you. Isn't that a great way to approach this type of question?In conclusion, for TOEFL speaking answers, be yourself, be specific, use vivid language, and don't forget to share your personal touch. Thiswill make your answer stand out and hopefully get you a good score!。

The Language of MusicA painter hangs his or her finished pictures on a wall,and everyone can see it. A composer writes a work, but no one can hear it until it is performed. Professional singers and players have great responsibilities, for the composer is utterly dependent on them. A student of music needs as long and as arduous a training to become a performer as a medical student needs to become a doctor. Most training is concerned with technique, for musicians have to have the muscular proficiency of an athlete or a ballet dancer. Singers practice breathing every day, as their vocal chords would be inadequate without controlled muscular support. String players practice moving the fingers of the left hand up and down, while drawing the bow to and fro with the right armtwo entirely different movements.Singers and instrumentalists have to be able to get every note perfectly in tune. Pianists are spared this particular anxiety, for the notes are already there, waiting for them, and it is the piano tuners responsibility to tune the instrument for them. But they have their own difficulties; the hammers that hit the string have to be coaxed not to sound like percussion, and each overlapping tone has to sound clear.This problem of getting clear texture is one that confronts student conductors: they haveto learn to know every note of the music and how it should sound, and they have to aim at controlling these sounds with fanatical but selfless authority.Technique is of no use unless it is combined with musical knowledge and understanding.Great artists are those who are so thoroughly at home in the language of music that they can enjoy performing works written in any century.托福口语话题及范文：History museum面对托福口语考试中，一些比较常见的话题，同学们还是要单独对这些话题进行重点学习。
