Located halfway up the Italy’s Apennine Mountain，about 1 00 miles northeast of Rome，the Hotel Rigopiano has never been easy to reach. But its isolation(隔绝)only adds to its appeal，attracting a great number of tourists.
Snow began to fall across the Apennines in January and lasted for days. From his home in the Rome suburbs，Matrone watched the weather with concern. He and his wife，Cicioni，had planned an overnight getaway to the hotel. But now he wondered whether they should go. After phoning the hotel，they decided to make the trip. By the time they neared the hotel six hours later，they were battling a snowstorm. When they finally arrived，they were both cold and exhausted. They checked into their room and went to bed early.
As they awoke the next day，they discovered that their difficulty had worsened overnight. The cars in the parking lot were invisible. The phone and power lines were down. They were having breakfast when the hotel began to shake. An earthquake with a magnitude(震级)of 5. 7 had struck the mountain. “Get out of here!”Matrone shouted to his wife. They headed quickly to the parking lot，where others were digging their cars. Fifteen minutes after the first earthquake，another quake hit，this one measuring 5. 6.
With a dozen vehicles freed by noon，the guests set off down the driveway. But when they reached the main road，the path was blocked by a six-foot-high wall of snow. Matrone climbed out of his car and investigated it. There was no road in sight，“We’re trapped!”he told his wife. So they had no choice but to make their way back to the hotel.
As it was getting dark，they managed to be back. That was when the snow on the mountain began to slide. They heard the avalanche(雪崩)before they saw it. The avalanche gathered speed and size，grabbing rocks and trees and anything else in its way down the mountain，tearing the hotel from its foundation. When the avalanche came to a stop，those caught inside the hotel were left buried in the icy rocks and ruins.
Para1， When Matrone came to himself，he was stuck in the darkness.

Afel was only a very small boy when he first saw snow in a picture book. It had lots of pictures of children _______ in big white fields. He asked, “Mum, what are those white fields?” His mother laughed, “That’s snow, and they are making a snowman!” She tried to _______

An interview is a discussion with someone in which you try to get information from them. 1. There are three basic sub-types of interview: structured interviews, unstructured interviews and semi-structured interviews. 2. Incidentally, “respondent” and “informant” are words that are sometimes used instead of “interviewee”.
A great deal is provided by this personal contact: you are another human being, and interviewees will respond to you, in bodily presence, in an entirely different way from the way that they would have reacted to questionnaires that came through their letterboxes or to emails. 3. Most people want to help and give their opinions, and they will usually be energized to help by your physical presence.
If you take the trouble to schedule a visit, you can be more or less guaranteed of a response. Most importantly, though, you will be able to relate to interviewees while you are talking to them. 4. You will be able to watch their behaviour which will give you important clues about how they feel about a topic. Because of the primacy of the personal contact, your appearance and tone are important—how do you want to be seen? As “one of us”? As a person in authority? As an observer? …Or what? 5. However you decide to present yourself, it is good practice of course to try to put the interviewee at ease before the interview begins — to talk about the weather, about your journey, about anything that will break the ice.
A.This is a ready-made support for you.
B.Its nature varies with the nature of the interviews.
C.You will be able to hear and understand what they are saying.
D.Your decision should influence the way that you look, sound and behave.
E.The information may be facts or opinions or attitudes or any combination of these.
F.Each involves the interviewer in fact-to-face contact or telephone contact with another person.
G.You will be using these clues to make informed guesses about what the interviewees might really mean.
For several decades, there has been an extensive and organized campaign intended to generate distrust in science, funded by those whose interests and ideologies are threatened by the findings of modern science. In response, scientists have tended to stress the success of science. After all, scientists have been right about most things.
Stressing successes isn’t wrong, but for many people it’s not persuasive. An alternative answer to the question “Why trust science?” is that scientists use the so-called scientific method. If you’ve got a high school science textbook lying around, you’ll probably find that answer in it. But what is typically thought to be the scientific method — develop a hypothesis (假设), then design an experiment to test it — isn’t what scientists actually do. Science is dynamic: new methods get invented; old ones get abandoned; and sometimes, scientists can be found doing many different things.
If there is no identifiable scientific method, then what is the reason for trust in science? The answer is how those claims are evaluated. The common element in modern science, regardless of the specific field or the particular methods being used, is the strict scrutiny (审查) of claims. It’s this tough, sustained process that works to make sure faulty claims are rejected. A scientific claim is never accepted as true until it has gone through a lengthy “peer review” because the reviewers are experts in the same field who have both the right and the obligation (责任) to find faults.
A key aspect of scientific judgment is that it is done collectively. No claim gets accepted until it has been vetted by dozens, if not hundreds, of heads. In areas that have been contested, like climate science and vaccine safety, it’s thousands. This is why we are generally justified in not worrying too much if a single scientist, even a very famous one, disagrees with the claim. And this is why diversity in science — the more people looking at a claim from different angles — is important.
Does this process ever go wrong? Of course. Scientists are humans. There is always the possibility of revising a claim on the basis of new evidence. Some people argue that we should not trust science because scientists are “always changing their minds.” While examples of truly settled science being overturned are far fewer than is sometimes claimed, they do exist. But the beauty of this scientific process is that it explains what might otherwise appear paradoxical (矛盾的): that science produces both novelty and stability. Scientists do change their minds in the face of new evidence, but this is a strength of science, not a weakness.
1.How does the author think of the scientific method?
A.Stable. B.Persuasive.
C.Unreliable. D.Unrealistic.
2.What does the underlined word “vetted” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A.Explained. B.Examined.
C.Repeated. D.Released.
3.According to the passage, the author may agree that ______.
A.it is not persuasive to reject those faulty claims
B.settled science tends to be collectively overturned
C.a leading expert cannot play a decisive role in a scrutiny
D.diversity in knowledge is the common element in science
4.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.Put Your Faith in Science B.Defend the Truth in Science
C.Apply Your Mind to Science D.Explore A Dynamic Way to Science
