b.A remnant is a small piece of cloth that is left over when most of the cloth.
Example:And the remants of last night's stew.
6.tectonic
Tectonic means relating to the structure of the Earth 's surface or crust
Day 12:
1.The team contends that these bear more than a passing resemblance to the networks of bacteria that live in hydrothermal vents-towering,crenellated structures that form in the deep ocean above the boundaries between tectonics plates,where superheated mineral-laden water spurts up from beneath the seabed.
团队认为,它承受的不仅仅是生活在深海热泉的相似,它们形成在构造板块之间的边界上深海中,其中过热的矿物填充的水从下面喷出海底。
笃师:这些和生活在深海热泉的细菌群落极为相似。深海热泉指的是:深海中构造板块交界边的上方高耸锯齿型部分,富含矿物质的水从海底喷涌而出。
2.Such a find is doubly intriguing because hydrothermal vents are seen as a plausible candidate for the cradle of life.
这类发现非常让人感到好奇,因为深海热泉很有可能是生命的摇篮。
笃师:人们认为深海热泉很有可能是生命的摇篮,这就使得该发现显得更有意思。
3.Although the sorts of bacteria apparently by Dr.Papineau and his colleagues are too complicated to reveal much about the very earlist organisms,the suggestion that hydrothermal vents have played host to life for so long is a strike in the theory's favor.
尽管通过p教授和他的同事发现细菌太复杂,无法看出最早的生物。但是深海热泉是长期存在的,支持其理论。
笃师:尽管p教授和他同事发现这类细菌太过复杂,无法更深入的揭示早期生命体的情况,但依然表明深海热泉养育生命历史悠久,这是支持该理论。
Day13:
前几篇文章阅读下来还能记住文章大概讲些什么。这篇文章看下来,瞬间懵了。有些句子明白表达什么意思,但是就是不能理解。读完感觉就是在讲p讲授的发现证明living was easy。感觉思维导图做偏了。听完笃师的讲解,明白了好多。第一次接触这类文章,完全不明白深海热泉....文章主要讨论的是p教授的发现。如果说其他地方也有可能像地球一样快速出现生物,那是不是可以推断出其他地方也会有生物,或者存在着第二个地球,只是还不为人知。地球的存在那么凑巧,化学物质就能产生。为什么只有地球上是这样的,其他星球上又不同?感觉脑洞大开。。作为新时代青年,还是应该补一补相关的知识。不然显得太无知了。。
