They are the chief components of proteins. Two environmental circumstances in the early years of Earth history may have been important in the natural synthesis of amino acids. Prior to the accumulation of the ozone layer in Earth"s upper atmosphere, ultraviolet rays bathed Earth"s surface. Ultraviolet radiation is capable of separating the atoms in mixtures of water, ammonia, and hydrocarbons and of recombining those atoms into amino acids. A second form of energy capable of accomplishing this feat is electrical discharge in the form of lightning. Either together or separately, lightning and ultraviolet radiation may have stimulated the production of amino acids at shallow depths in lakes or oceans.Researchers have sought to test whether amino acids could be created from the chemicals of a primitive Earth. Scientists in the mid-nineteenth century had succeeded in manufacturing some relatively simple organic compounds in the laboratory. However. it was not until 1953 that the laboratory synthesis of amino acids and other molecules of roughly similar complexity was announced Stanley Miller, at the suggestion of Harold Urey. performed the now-famous experiment. He created an atmosphere in an apparatus that at that time was thought to be like Earth"s earliest atmosphere. It was a methane, ammonia, hydrogen, and water vapor atmosphere As the mixture was circulated through the glass tubes, sparks of electricity (simulated lightning) were introduced into the mixture. At the end of only eight days, the condensed water in the apparatus had become turbid and deep red. Analysis of the crimson liquid showed that it contained a large quantity of amino acids as well as somewhat more complicated organic compounds that enter into the composition of all living things.In additional experiments by other biochemists, it was shown that similar organic compounds could also be produced from gases (carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and water vapor) of the preoxygenic atmosphere. The main requirement for the success of the experiments seemed to be the lack, or near absence, of free oxygen (oxygen not combined with any other element). To the experimenters, it now seemed almost inevitable that amino acids would have developed in Earth"s pre-life environment. Because amino acids are relatively stable, they probably increased gradually to levels of abundance that would enhance their abilities to join together into more-complex molecules leading to proteins.To come together and form protein-like molecules, amino acids must lose water. This loss can be accomplished by heating concentrations of amino acids to temperatures of at least 140°℃. Volcanic activity on the primitive crust would be capable of providing such temperatures. However, the biochemist S. W. Fox discovered that the reaction also occurred at temperatures as low as 70°C if phosphoric acid was present. Fox and his co-workers were able to produce protein-like chains from a mixture of eighteen common amino acids. They called these structures proteinoids and reasoned that billions of years ago, they were the transitional structures leading to true proteins. This was not a wild guess, for Fox was able to find proteinoids similar to those he created in his laboratory among the lavas and cinders adjacent to the vents of Hawaiian volcanoes. Apparently, amino acids formed in the volcanic vapors and were combined into proteinoids by the heat of escaping gases.Hot, water-based solutions of proteinoids will, on cooling, form into tiny spheres that show many characteristics common to living cells. These proteinoid microspheres, as they are called, have a film-like outer wall through which liquids can move; exhibit budding as do yeast organisms; and can be observed to divide into "daughter" microspheres. They occasionally cluster together in lines to form filaments, as in some bacteria. and they exhibit a streaming movement of internal particles similar to that observed in living cells Although complete long-chain nucleic acids (e.q., DNA) have not been experimentally produced under pre-life conditions, short stretches of ordered sequences of nucleic acid components have now been produced in the laboratory. Some paleobiologists believe similar sequences could have been formed and accumulated on the surfaces of clay particles.2. Woodblock Prints第一段：版画是一种通过在物体表面雕刻、上墨后进行批量印刷的艺术形式，便于运输、管理和近距离观看。尽管很少有艺术家因版画成名，但它比传统雕塑更具创作自由。相比其他艺术形式，版画可能不够正式或宏大，但更易让观众产生亲近感。第二段：几百年前，欧洲的纸张由碎布制成，使用托盘制模，留下独特的纹理痕迹。随着托盘金属丝的加密，纸张变得更光滑。造纸商还在金属板上刻上标志，形成纸张的水印，这些水印有助于辨别真伪。第三段：尽管现代纸张丰富，人们仍偏爱手工纸。近年来，手工纸发展出可嵌入多种物体和图像的“混合艺术形式”，艺术家为实现美学效果，需考虑纸张与墨水的协调。西方使用的墨水多为特定的黑色，其制作与颜料、油漆比例密切相关，并需控制蒸煮时间与油漆粘度。不同版画工艺对墨水有不同要求：如石版画需油性墨水，丝网印刷则需流动性强的颜料。不同地区也有墨色差异，如意大利的灰色与北欧的黑色形成鲜明对比。套 3上下滑动??查看更多1. Chimpanzee Communication第一段：动物是否具备有意识地进行交流的能力，一直是一个引发讨论的问题。由于人类尚未完全解读动物间的交流方式，研究者们转而尝试教动物使用人类的语言系统，如美式手语或代表词语的图形符号，以此探索它们的语言潜能。第二段：1966年，大卫与贝特丽克斯·加德纳启动了一项研究，训练几只黑猩猩掌握美式手语与人类交流，首先尝试的对象是一只叫沃肖的黑猩猩。实验表明，这些黑猩猩能够用手语指代物体或个体，逐渐建立起表达需求的词汇体系，展现出其交流具有明确目的性。第三段：黑猩猩还能表达对未来事件的预期，例如提前“预告”即将进行的日常活动，显示出它们拥有某种程度的未来意识。这种能力暗示它们的沟通不仅仅是即时反应，而是经过思考的行为。尽管它们也用手语传达情绪，但认知因素显然在其交流中占据主导地位。第四段：为回应外界关于黑猩猩是否只是模仿人类提示的质疑，加德纳夫妇设计了严格控制的实验。在实验中，没有任何人类知晓屏幕上显示的物品，而黑猩猩仍能准确地通过手语识别物体，从而验证了它们的表达行为是自主的，而非受人类无意识提示影响。第五段：研究还发现，黑猩猩能够主动使用手语传递人类原本不知道的信息。举例来说，年幼的沃肖曾把一个玩具掉入她居住的房车墙体中，后来在加德纳博士探望时，她用手语多次示意“打开”，试图引导人类注意这一情况，展现出真正的信息传递与有意识的互动。2. Agriculture and the classic Maya collapse第一段：在今天的墨西哥南部以及中美洲低地地区，经典时期的玛雅文明曾持续繁荣约六个世纪，然而在公元800年左右却迅速衰败，这一突如其来的转变引起了考古学界的高度关注。由于该文明在灭亡前达到了极高的文化成就，其突然崩溃使得研究人员倍感困惑。学术界围绕崩溃原因提出了多种解释，包括外敌入侵、内部社会不稳、严重干旱、环境恶化以及贸易网络中断等因素。为了验证这些观点，学者们进行了大量深入研究，运用了模拟实验、贸易分析和对生态压力与人口动态的综合考察。第二段：考古学家帕特里克·卡尔伯特发现，在玛雅南部低地晚期，人口密度异常高，达到每平方公里约200人，使得当地居民在面对生存危机时几乎无路可逃。他认为，社会秩序的崩坏本身不足以解释之后两百年内人口的剧烈减少，因此农业体系的瓦解必然是推动文明崩溃的重要因素之一。农业失效直接动摇了社会赖以生存的根基，成为灾难的关键驱动力量。第三段：随着人口不断增长，玛雅人构建了广泛且集约的农业体系，包括修建梯田与高架田地，甚至不惜从数十公里之外运输粮食以满足需求。虽然这些农业措施在短时间内了粮食产量，但也因为缺乏持续的组织管理而埋下了危机。气候变化、病虫害、土壤侵蚀以及土地肥力下降始终构成潜在威胁。维护这些复杂农业系统需要高度协调的管理机制，尤其是在洪水或强降雨之后进行修复，但目前没有证据显示玛雅社会曾进行结构性改革来加强农业管理，相反，其资源可能更多投入到了公共工程或军事防御之中，尤其在面对来自北方的潜在威胁时。第四段：卡尔伯特指出，玛雅文明在短期内通过农业集约化获得了更高的产出，但这一发展也加剧了生态系统的恶化。人口压力迫使人们缩短休耕时间，导致作物与杂草之间的竞争加剧，而控制杂草需要大量人工投入。由于土地养分未能有效恢复，导致农业产量不断下滑。与此同时，大量砍伐森林使得水土流失问题日益严重，而玛雅人未能及时修建梯田等保土设施来防止侵蚀。在这种基础上，当大规模干旱来袭时，依赖自然降水和已高度开发土地的农业系统难以维系，社会结构随之遭受严重冲击。第五段：通过分析尤卡坦半岛奇昌卡纳布湖的沉积记录，研究人员发现干旱在该地区具有大约208年的周期性变化。公元800至1000年之间是整个中晚全新世中*为干旱的时期，其间出现了两个显著的干旱高峰，其中第*个正好与玛雅文明的崩溃时期相吻合。如此剧烈而持久的干旱，对依赖地表水资源和旱作农业为主的玛雅社会造成了严重打击，这种气候变化被认为是导致文明走向衰亡的关键自然因素之一。昂立国际作为托福官方指定考点，整理《高频词汇表》及《全球TOP院校托福*要求》??扫码，领取??

5月17日托福写作回顾第*套上下滑动??查看更多综合写作The reading passage proposes three methods to control the spread of false bamboo, an invasive plant species, while the listening challenges each approach as impractical or ineffective.First, the reading suggests that physically pulling out false bamboo is a viable solution. However, the lecture argues that this method is unrealistic due to the plant’s resilience. The speaker explains that even tiny fragments of roots or residual plant material left in the soil can regenerate into full-grown plants. This means the removal process must be meticulously thorough, which is nearly impossible on a large scale. A single oversight could undo all efforts, rendering the method both labor-intensive and unreliable. Thus, the reading’s optimism about manual removal overlooks the plant’s biological tenacity.Second, the reading advocates for chemical herbicides, claiming they can effectively kill false bamboo by disrupting its growth mechanisms. The lecture counters this by highlighting practical drawbacks. The speaker states that herbicides must be applied three to four times per year, requiring up to one pound of chemicals per square meter. Such repeated, intensive use would be prohibitively expensive, especially for local governments managing vast infested areas. Thus, the financial burden and logistical complexity would make large-scale chemical treatment unsustainable.Finally, the reading proposes introducing a natural predator—an insect from Asia—to control false bamboo populations, asserting that it would not harm other species. The lecture dismisses this as ecologically risky and ineffective. The speaker points out that the insect’s native Asian habitat differs drastically from the UK’s colder climate. During harsh UK winters, the insect population would decline sharply, leaving it unable to suppress false bamboo growth consistently. Furthermore, introducing non-native species often triggers unintended ecological consequences, a risk the reading downplays. The listening thus critiques the proposal as both biologically unsound and environmentally hazardous.学术讨论Professor:One traditional method of classroom instruction is lecturing. Lecturing involves the teacher talking about a topic for an extended period of time and expecting students to learn by listening attentively. Today, some educators believe that teachers should limit how much time they spend lecturing and instead teach by encouraging in-class discussions and having students work in groups. However, some teachers still teach primarily by lecturing. Do you believe lecturing is an effective teaching method? Why or why not?Paul:In my opinion, lecturing is mainly ineffective because a teacher who only gives lectures can"t know what"s going on in students" minds. When a teacher lectures and students are just required to sit there, the teacher can"t really check if students understand the lecture. Students have to contribute somehow to show whether or not they are learning.Clairel:I think lecturing can be effective. Some teachers can explain even complex concepts by telling interesting stories and by providing memorable examples. When teachers lecture in an entertaining way, students enjoy attending class and feel motivated to learn. Whether a teacher"s lectures are effective depends on the teacher.第二套学术讨论Doctor Achebe:As of this semester, I have embarked on a study to explore the various factors influencing children"s cognition. It"s becoming increasingly evident that a child"s surroundings can significantly impact their development. In light of this, the question arises: should parents allow their children to watch online videos, whether for entertainment or educational purposes? Please share your insights on this matter considering the potential effects on a child"s cognitive growth.Paul:We should not allow young children, especially those under two years old, to watch videos. It"s crucial for their development to engage in real-life communication with others during this critical period. Watching videos doesn"t provide the opportunity for meaningful interaction. Even for older children, it"s essential to prioritize physical activity over extended screen time. Instead of sitting still in front of screens, they should be encouraged to stay active to support their overall well-being.Kelly:I agree that very young children shouldn"t be exposed to videos. However, I believe that older children can benefit from watching certain videos, especially those that showcase animals or provide unique insights not easily encountered in everyday life. These videos can be educational and expand their horizons by offering a window into experiences they might not otherwise have access to.第三套学术讨论Doctor Achebe:Today, we will examine what economists call incentives — the motivations that lead people to make certain choices. Cost is a major category of economic incentives. People tend to change their behavior when a particular choice gets more expensive. Let"s discuss an example. Some economists argue that a good way to reduce air pollution is for governments to raise the cost (through taxes or other means) of fuel for cars. Do you agree or disagree with this viewpoint? Why?最后，让我们一起看一下，在昂立国际教育的老师辅导下，托福*拿到高分的小伙伴们的战绩吧！
