TOEFL READING, “Project Mohole”&"Red-Billed Quelea" main text only ,

참고1  지구 멘탈  Geologists have tried to get samples of Earth's mantle, the layer under the crust, but it's hard because the crust is thick. They once tried to do this through a project called Project Mohole in 1961, by drilling through the sea floor where the crust is thinner. They drilled five holes, the deepest one was 183 meters. But the project was stopped in 1966 because it was too expensive. Even though they couldn't reach the mantle, the project was still useful because they learned a lot from the samples they got and the technology they used to dig the holes. 지질학자들은 지구의 맨틀, 지각 아래 층을 샘플로 얻으려고 했지만, 지각이 두꺼워서 어렵습니다. 그들은 1961년에 프로젝트 모홀을 통해 해저를 드릴링하여 얇은 지각을 통해 시도했습니다. 그들은 5개의 구멍을 뚫었는데, 가장 깊은 곳은 183미터였어요. 하지만 1966년에 비용이 너무 들어서 프로젝트를 중단시켰어요. 그럼에도 불구하고 맨틀에 도달하지 못했더라도, 이 프로젝트는 여전히 유용했어요. 왜냐하면 그들은 얻은 샘플에서 많은 것을 배우고, 구멍을 파는데 사용한 기술을 성공적으로 활용했기 때문이에요. 새 The red-billed quelea is a bird from Africa and there might be ten billion of them in the world. The boy birds change their feathers and beak color during mating season to attract girls. They live in the grasslands of Africa and build nests in trees or bushes. If a girl likes a boy's nest, they become a couple. They have 1 to 5 eggs which hatch in about 10 days. The parents feed the babies insects. After a few weeks, the young birds can find food on their own. The main food they eat is seeds from crops, so they often visit farmlands. This can cause problems for farmers. 적부리는 아프리카에 사는 새고, 전 세계에 약 천억 마리가 있다고 생각해요. 깃털과 부리 색깔을 바꾸는 수컷 새들이 교미 시즌에 암컷을 끌어들이기 위해 바꿔요. 아프리카의 초원에서 살며 나무나 덤불에 둥지를 짓습니다. 암컷이 수컷의 둥지를 좋아하면 그들은 커플이 돼요. 그들은 1에서 5개의 알을 낳는데, 약 10일 후에 부화해요. 부모 새들은 아기 새들에게 곤충을 먹여요. 몇 주 후에는 새끼 새들이 스스로 식사를 찾을 수 있어요. 그들이 주로 먹는 음식은 농작물의 씨앗이기 때문에, 그들은 종종 농지를 방문하게 돼요. 이건 농부들에게 문제를 일으킬 수 있어요. ------ 참고2  Prolific(다방면에 걸쳐 많은): Producing a large amount of something.
