2 For questions 1-12, read the text below and think of the word which best fits each gap. Use only one word in each gap.
Ordinary volcanoes are formed by a column of very hot molten rock, known (0) as magma, rising to the Earthtasks surface from deep within the Earthtasks core. This type (1) of volcano usually erupts from the top of a cone shaped mountain, such as the famous volcano, Vesuvius, near Naples in Italy. However, there is (2) another kind of volcano, called a supervolcano. It is one of the (3) most destructive forces in nature but also one of the least understood. One thing that is known, though, is that if a supervolcano occurs, it (4) will lead to mass extinction of species, and one species in particular (5) which will be under threat is the human race.
So what is a supervolcano exactly and (6) how often do they occur? A supervolcano is basically a huge reservoir, or lake, of boiling magma that lies close to the Earthtasks surface. They (7) are found in six different regions of the planet. One of the most famous supervolcano regions is in Yellowstone Park in Wyoming, USA. This park is (8) an area of outstanding natural beauty but it is also a sleeping giant that could wake (9) up at any time. The last time the area erupted was (10) more than 600,000 years ago and a new eruption is now overdue. When it does erupt, because (11) one day it will, it will virtually destroy the USA. And the dust cloud it creates will block (12) out the sun causing the Earthtasks temperature to plummet threatening the whole planet with mass extinction.

According to a recent news report, a (0) couple of snowmobilers out for a (1) ride this weekend received quite a shock. As they were speeding along on their snowmobiles, they (2) came across what they thought was simply a crashed abandoned car. On closer (3) inspection however, things weren’t quite as they
had first appeared.
After (4) digging through approximately one metre of snow in order to get a better (5) look at the car, they were amazed to catch sight of a man (6) wrapped up in a sleeping bag in the rear seat of the vehicle. After being removed from the car and subsequently (7) transported to hospital by rescuers, the man was named as 44-year- old Peter Skyllberg.
Although weak and very thin after his (8) ordeal Skyllberg was able to tell doctors that he had been (9) trapped in the car since 19 December - nearly two months before he was discovered! Having survived for such a (10) length of time with no food and water, medical (11) personnel are calling Skyllberg’s survival something of a miracle. They are still trying to figure out how Skyllberg managed to stay alive (12) despite temperatures that often dropped to as low as -30 °C.
