The vast ____ of the 65,500 billion tons of carbon on Earth is held within rocks.
The remainder ____ in the oceans, atmosphere, plants, soil and fossil fuels.
Carbon dioxide inside Earth is released continually during volcanic eruptions, and before the Industrial Revolution volcanoes were the largest source of carbon dioxide entering Earth’s ____.
However, the release of carbon is largely regulated by the natural carbon cycle, which draws down as much carbon from the ____ as volcanoes release into it, acting as a planetary scale thermostat.
If temperatures increase due to a period of intense ____, more carbon will be drawn down from the atmosphere, which will take temperatures back to their previous levels.
____, given the slow rate of some of these chemical reactions it can take hundreds of thousands of years for the system to stabilize.
8 음반을 통한 음악 전수
Ignacio Varchausky from the Buenos Aires tango orchestra El Arranque says in the documentary Si Sos Brujo that he and others tried learning from records ____ the older orchestras did what they did, but it was difficult, almost impossible.
Eventually, El Arranque had to find the surviving players from those ensembles and ask them how it was ____.
The ____ players had to physically show the younger players how to replicate the effects they got, and which notes and beats should be emphasized.
So, to some extent, music is still an oral (and physical) ____, handed down from one person to another.
Records may do a lot to preserve music and ____ it, but they can’t do what direct transmission does.
In that same documentary, Wynton Marsalis says that the learning, the ____ passing, happens on the bandstand — one has to play with others, to learn by watching and imitating.
For Varchausky, when those older players are gone, the traditions (and ____) will be lost if their knowledge is not passed on directly.
History and culture can’t really be ____ by technology alone.
9 의사소통 목적에 따른 적절한 기술 사용
Teams have many communication technologies at their disposal, ranging from ____ and chat platforms to web conferencing and videoconferencing.
People often default to using the tool that is most convenient or familiar to ____, but some technologies are better suited to certain tasks than others, and choosing the wrong one can lead to trouble.
Communication tools differ along a number of dimensions, including information richness (or the capacity to transfer nonverbal and other ____ that help people interpret meaning) and the level of real-time interaction that is possible.
A ____ communication tasks likewise vary in complexity, depending on the need to reconcile different viewpoints, give and receive feedback, or avoid the potential for misunderstanding.
The ____ of the communication should determine the delivery mechanism.
So carefully ____ your goals.
Use leaner, text-based media such as email, chat, and bulletin boards when pushing information in ____ direction — for instance, when circulating routine information and plans, sharing ideas, and collecting simple data.
Web conferencing and videoconferencing are richer, more interactive ____ better suited to complex tasks such as problem solving and negotiation, which require squaring different ideas and perspectives.
10 동물의 미래 지향적인 행동
____ regularly engage in future-oriented behaviors, from nest-building to hibernation.
Clearly these ____ are functionally prospective, but the extent to which they are controlled by cognitive processes remains an open question.
Migrating birds, for example, travel long ____ to avoid cold winters, without ever having experienced a winter, warmer climates, or the dangers of travel.
These birds are unable to know what it is they are avoiding and why this course of action ____ them.
Indeed, when two bird populations with different migratory paths are cross-bred, the resulting offspring migrate in a direction halfway between that of their parents, suggesting that direction of migration is ____ determined.
From this example we can see that not all prospective behaviors can be considered to involve awareness of the future, but may instead be automatic responses to natural (e.g., seasonal changes in day length or hormones), or learned, ____.
11 토양과 식물 간의 상호 작용
Soil and the plants that grow in it are continually interacting in many ____, both directly and through the effects of the many kinds of bacteria, fungi and other small organisms that are always present.
Most notably, plants are continually dropping leaves and other parts which fall to the ground to rot in place where they release their nutrients, although in some ____ climates, lightning-set fires are necessary to liberate the mineral nutrients present in the plant litter.
In any case, most of the nutrients present in dead plant material end up locally in the soil, while the vast networks of plant roots and fungal threads join with bacteria, lichens and sticky humus to effectively hold the soil together even in the face of heavy ____ and strong winds.
The result is effective and continuous recycling of plant nutrients which are capable of moving back and forth between the soil and the plants almost ____.
Soil is also a vast storehouse for the seeds and spores produced by the local plants, a ____ factor in allowing vegetation to regenerate following disturbance.
12 진화의 속도
When Darwin developed his theory of natural selection, he imagined evolution unrolling on geological timescales: the way a glacier sculpts a valley or weather beats on a rock, so time ____ one species into another.
Such was the conventional ____ for over a century.
But in the late twentieth century, our understanding of evolution started to change, thanks in no small ____ to the continuing study of the Galápagos finches that Darwin himself had observed on the
It turns out that evolution works far more ____ than Darwin imagined.
The ____ of the Galápagos evolve on timescales we can observe.
In 1983, for instance, a year with superabundant rainfall, a species of vine with tiny seeds overran the flora of Daphne ____.
The ____ with the smallest and pointiest beaks were suddenly, and distinctly, advantaged.
Their genes ____ spread.
____ for traits can happen over the course of years or decades, not just eons.
And Darwin’s finches are ____, not exceptional.
They are a privileged case of the paradigm that the biologist ____ Thompson has called “relentless evolution.”
