But for those who like more extreme adventures, Nicaragua offers an even more exciting slide experience. The thought of racing down an active volcano with onl
29、y a board is enough to get most people hot under the collar.

38、tters of the words radio direction and ranging. As the human eye uses light waves to see, radar “sees” with radio waves. Without radar, planes could not land safely in bad weather and ships could not move safely in thick fog. 36. In the 1800s it was discovered that radio waves could be reflected fro
39、m objects. But scientists did not make great advances in radar research until the 1930s, when the world was threatened by war. 37. It has been used widely in almost every conflict since then.Echoes make it possible for radar to work. When a beam of radio waves is sent out, it strikes on an object an
40、d returns an echo. This echo is picked up by radar and recorded on a screen similar to television screen. On the screen an observer sees a flash, or a blip, that shows the direction and distance of the object. 38. Airport control towers use radar to guide planes in for safe landings. Almost all larg
41、e ships depend on radar to prevent collisions with icebergs or other ships. 39. Weather forecasters “see” the size, direction, and speed of storms on radar screens. Astronomers can even use radar to measure accurately the distance to the moon. Thus, the device has generated major advancements.40. Hu
42、ge radar antennas have been installed all over the United States. They guard us against possible enemy attacks. We have ballistic-missiles(战略导弹 ) warning systems that can alert us to attacks when missiles are more than 1,000 miles away. Other radar systems warn us against enemy aircraft and even spy
43、ing space satellites.A. Police track speeders in radar-equipped cars.B. These measurements are now highly accurate.C. The device can be used in a wide range of fields.D. During World War II many countries used radar effectively.E. It is therefore especially valuable to shippers and travelers.F. Toda
