(A)did (B)made (C)told (D)talked請依下文回答第38 題至第42 題What to write about is the first problem of a student who must periodically submit a theme or an essay. This questionarises not from actual lack of material but from 38 to take the right view of the material one has. A short reflectionshould convince the student that he or she thinks about many things; and a solution to the problem will be found partly atleast in an examination of what he or she already has in mind. One of the great 39 of education comes when weperceive that there is no such thing as a naturally uninteresting subject. Anything can be interesting if one knows enoughabout it. A certain amount of imagination is required and a certain focusing of the view, of course, but there is no reasonwhy a small thing should be of small interest, or why a familiar one should be 40 rich possibilities. The automobileis an exceedingly commonplace object in American life, yet with the right approach it becomes a subject of commandinginterest to the economist, to the engineer, or to the prospective vacationer. Perhaps few things arouse so little thought asthe table salt, yet when salt is considered in relation to living organisms, in connection with certain historical movements,or with regard to its industrial uses, it is 41 transformed into a subject of extraordinary interest. These are examplesof ordinary objects capable of 42 treatment, and it is precisely this kind of connection that the student must makebetween his stock of knowledge and its opportunities for development and interpretation.

Complacent trees aren’t much use for learning about climate history, because they packon wide new rings of wood even in dry years. To find trees that feel the same climatic pulses as the river, treeswhose rings widen and narrow from year to year with the river itself, scientists have to climb up the steep,rocky slopes above the valley and look for gnarled, ugly trees, the kind that loggers ignore. For some reasonsuch “sensitive” trees seem to live longer than the complacent ones. “Maybe you can get too much of a goodthing,” says Dave Meko, a tree-ring scientist who has been studying the climate history of the western UnitedStates for decades. Tree-ring fieldwork is hardly expensive, but during the relatively wet 1980s and early ’90s,Meko found it difficult to raise even the modest funds for his work. “You don’t generate interest to studydrought unless you’re in a drought,” he says.

The village is reachable only by a ninety-minute flight from Fairbanks, in the center of Alaska. It experiences theextremes of summer when it never darkens and bitter winters when it is light for only three hours a day. It straddles twoworlds: Arctic Village has satellite television and access to the Internet, but no running water or inside toilets. It has itsown post office with the American flag flying beside it, but its traditions owe more to native Alaskan ways, which manyin the village see threatened by the desire of the US to drill for oil in the Arctic Refuge immediately to the north of thevillage.A more immediate threat, however, comes from the effects of climate change, which are more apparent here thananywhere else in the US. So great are the local fears that they called a tribal gathering last month for the first time inthirteen years. During it, they blessed the new solar panels on the roof of their “washeteria,” where they do their laundryand take their showers. The panels provide energy in summer and are a reminder of the renewable forms of energy theworld has barely explored. But it is the effects of the rise in winter temperatures that the older people in the village worryabout. “It used always to be -51℃ in the winter but we don’t get that anymore,” said Kias Peter, seventy-two, one of thevillage elders. “We have lost thirteen lakes around here.” And Calvin Tritt, fifty, a former Gwich’in chief added, “Thecaribou used to have about two inches of fat on them, now they’re scrawny and they’re going loco.”
