Listen to part of a lecture in an earth science class.

The professor is discussing an area of the United States called the Copper Basin.Now, you may not have heard of the Copper Basin.

It's in the Eastern United States, in the Tennessee River Valley.It got its name because settlers discovered copper there In 1843.And soon afterwards, it supported one of the largest metal mining operations in America.At one time, four mining companies employed 2500 workers in the Copper Basin.For that time period, it was a huge operation.

Well, this mining operation turned the Copper Basin into a desert.In the 1840s, when mining operations started, it was a dense green forest.But in the 1940s, 100 years later, it was as barren as the moon.

Efforts to reclaim the land and restore the basin to the fertile valley it once was ... well, actually, those efforts are still ongoing. It's been a long and tedious process.In fact, it was many years before any results were seen.Copper mining had gone on there for more than 90 years.The damage couldn't be reversed overnight.

Although I should mention that by 1996, the water in one of the rivers flowing through the basin was clean enough that it was the site of the Olympic whitewater kayaking competition.And that river is still used now for recreation.

But... anyway... let's analyze the problem.It wasn't the mining itself that caused such massive destruction.It was what happened after the copper ore was extracted from the mines.It was a process called heap roasting.

Copper ore contains sulfur.And heap roasting was a way to burn away the sulfur in the copper, so they'd be left with something closer to pure copper.Well, in the process, large vats of raw copper ore are burned slowly, for two or three months actually, to lower the sulfur content.And this burning, well, let's look at the results.

First, the mines were fairly remote, so there was no way to bring coal or other fuel to keep the fires going.So they cut down local trees for fuel.And like I said, the fires burned for months.That's a lot of fires and a lot of trees.Deforestation was occurring at a rapid rate.And it was accelerated by the smoke from the burning ore.Big clouds of sulfuric smoke, which was toxic to the trees, formed over the areas.Trees that hadn't been cut for fuel were killed by the fumes.

The sulfur also mixed with the air and created sulfur dioxideAnd the sulfur dioxide settled in the clouds fell to the land in droplets of rain and sank into the soil. This is what we now call acid rain. You've probably heard of it.But no one used the term back then.Anyway... the acid rain created highly acidic soil.Well, soon the soil became so acidic that nothing could grow, nothing at all.Vegetation and wild life disappeared.

And it wasn't just the land and the air, it was the water too.What do you think happen to the rivers?Well, there are no trees to absorb the rain, and there was a lot of rain.So the rain eroded the soil and swept it into the rivers.This is called silting, when soil particles are washed into the rivers.And the silting continued at an alarming rate.But this was toxic soil and toxic runoff. The acid and metals in the soil made the once clear rivers flow bright orange.

So it was really that one step in the process of producing copper.The problems just built up and up until there was a desert where a beautiful forest used to be. 

OK. Now let's look at reforestation and land reclamation efforts. 


What is the lecture mainly about?

(1’40”) But…anyway…let’s analyze the problem. It wasn’t the mining itself that caused such massive destruction. It was what happened after the copper ore was extracted from the mines. It was a process called heap roasting. 教授从一开始先介绍讲座要涉及的重要话题Copper Basin. 然后介绍了一些Copper Basin的来源。然后用转折词BUT来引出这次讲座的主题。

Q1(内容主旨题)选A 正确选项A的关键信息“environmental effects of heap roasting”所对应的线索内容是“And this burning, well… let’s look at the results” 教授直接开始讲授课程内容,但没有明确的总起性提示“我今天要讲的是….”。如果不能直接借助笔记完成,也可以依靠考生听完后的归纳。 本文教授首先介绍Copper Basin的挖矿活动对环境带来危害,跟着介绍heap roasting这种技术,之后并列地讲述了他的几方面影响。
