21、Mountains of smoke and fire
Deep under the Earth’s surface, it’s so hot that even rock melts. Sometimes this molten rock, called “magma”, is pushed up to the surface.【1】And the opening or vent that lets the lava out is a volcano.
A volcano may explode violently, throwing out rocks for miles around.【2】Some volcanoes release clouds of poisonous gas or huge clouds of ash. Volcanoes can even do all these things underwater.
Most volcanoes have been around for a very long time. Many haven’t erupted for years and have cooled off. Volcanoes that are not going to erupt again are called “dead volcanoes”. Some volcanoes still give off smoke. These “sleeping volcanoes” may “wake up” one day and erupt again. 【3】 But one day in AD 79 it suddenly woke up. Its eruption threw out hot ash and rocky fragments (碎片) that buried the city of Pompeii. A hot mud-flow buried nearby Herculaneum. Because the remains are so well preserved, the area has been named a World Heritage site.
But not all volcanoes are destructive. When a volcano throws out vast amounts of lava and debris (岩屑), it piles up into a mountain.【4】
Other volcanoes help provide heat and energy. Many Icelandic homes get their hot water from springs heated by volcanic steam.【5】 Plants grow very well in the rich soil left by volcanoes. And valuable gems, such as diamonds, can sometimes be found in the rocks that are thrown out by volcanoes.
A.At this point it is referred to as “lava”.
B.The molten rock is formed inside the Earth.
C.This steam can also be used to produce electricity.
D.Mount Vesuvius in Italy slept for a thousand years.
E.Or it may push lava out so that it flows away, cools and hardens.
F.Japan has many active volcanoes within its narrow national territory.
G.The Hawaiian Islands and the island of Iceland were created in this way.

23、 Before the discovery of DNA information in the 1980s, fingerprints(指纹)were the easiest way to solve serious crimes. It’s believed that each one of us has our own fingerprints. But did you know that our fingerprints could show a lot about us?
According to The Conversation, fingerprints can show lifestyle and environment, eating habits, possible medical problems and even the job of a person.
So how can we work all this out from just a simple fingerprint? Well, a fingerprint is formed when a finger touches a surface. Most fingerprints can’t be seen to the eye and require a chemical development process in order to make them shown. Stuck between the raised lines of a fingerprint, however, are things that can tell a story about who we are. Things like sweat, blood, and food show a lot of information about us.
Besides, its use could be much wider. For example, it may be helpful in the future to doctors treating their patients. A fingerprint check may also tell a doctor whether a patient is properly having a medicine. In the treatment of some of the most serious illnesses, having proper medicine is important.
In the future, fingerprint science can be used to the police and help doctors keep us in the best possible health.
