In January, 2018B Volcanoes have been erupting since shortly after the earth was formed. About twenty volcanic eruptions occur each day on earth. Some of these eruptions a
18、re quiet. Others are violently explosive. Either way, volcanoes can be very dangerous. Since 1700, more than 250,000 people have been killed by volcanic activities. Entire towns have been wiped out. Many acres of forests and farmlands have been ruined. The most destructive volcano, so far, has been
19、Mount Tambora in Indonesia. The explosive eruption killed over 10,000 people. Huge pyroclastic(火山碎屑) flows entered the sea and produced tsunamis. 82,000 more people died of starvation after the eruption. Crops and animals used for food died, resulting in a widespread famine. Another damaging eruptio
20、n also occurred in Indonesia. In 1883, Krakatoa erupted violently. The biggest danger from this eruption was the tsunami that followed. Krakatoas crater fell down in the explosion. Part of it sunk below sea level. A wall of water over thirty meters high killed over 35,000 people. Indonesia has also
21、been the scene of other dangerous volcanic eruptions. In 1882, the eruption of Gulunggung killed over four thousand people. In 1919, Kelut erupted, killing more than five thousand people. Most of the deaths in these two eruptions were from dangerous mudflows. Mount Pelee in Mrtinique erupted in 1902
22、. Almost 30,000 people were killed as a result of ash flows. Mudflows during the eruption of Ruiz in Columbia in 1985 killed over 25,000 people. Can scientists predict eruption and help prevent deaths from volcanoes? There are some ways to sometimes tell that an eruption is going to occur. Many smal
23、l earthquakes may occur near the volcano. Different gases will come out of it. Sometimes a volcano might even change shape. A moving bubble appeared in Mount Saint Helens in 1980. This allowed scientists to predict that it was going to erupt. People moved to the safe places. Many lives were saved. W
24、hen the first volcano erupted, no humans were around. Today, scientists predict five hundred million people are at risk from dangerous volcanoes. Scientists are working hard to provide timely warnings of eruptions. Peoples belongings may still be destroyed, but at least lives can be saved.24.What ca

29、s the hero of a story that paints an unforgettable picture of Central Europe between 1923 and 1954. This is an overview of the story of The Tin Drun, the most famous work by the German Nobel-winning author Gnter Grass. Just as his most famous fiction is both the story of an individual and the story
30、of an age, so it is that Grass life cannot be understood apart from the history of Germany. In part this is because he was a very political man, always with much to say about Germany and its relationship with the world. He was called “Germanys conscience”, because he reminded Germans of a past-the T
31、hird Reich(1933-1945)-that many would have rather forgotten. This sometimes made him unpopular and also, according to some, self-important. Many Germans did not agree in 1989 when he said that East Germany and West Germany should remain separate, as a united country would be too strong and threaten the worlds peace. And Grass was called a hypocrite(伪君子) when he revealed in his memoir(回忆录) Peeling the Onion(2006) that he had been a teenage member of the Waffen-SS, the Nazi partys fighting force. The man who had condemned the actions of others had
