【万物简史】PART II CH 5敲石头的人们（17）

听力简介：

昨天我们接触了一大堆地理名词，很吐吧，今天作者安慰我们了，他振奋人心地说：“幸运的是，除非把地质学作为你的专业，你从此以后再也不大可能听到这些名称了。”╮(╯▽╰)╭

书本的朗读语音很charming的磁性英音~~~大家可以好好学着模仿哦~~~！！
因为原著为美国人所写,单词采用美式拼法,不抄全文，也不用写序号。答完一空换行继续下一空作答。文中需听写单词或词组用[-No-]表示，句子用[---No---]表示。请边听写边理解文意，根据下面的TIPS训练听写。这样可以提高听力准确度，并为训练听译打下基础哦~~~

TIPS听写训练点：单词拼写，时态，单复数，连读，长难句（请边听边用符号先记下内容，然后自己回头组织语句，最后校对，不要逐字逐句听写）

Hints:
Precambrian
Archean
Proterozoic

Then come Lyell's epochs—the Pleistocene, Miocene, and so on—which apply only to the most recent (but paleontologically busy) 65 million years, and finally we have [-1-] finer subdivisions known as [-2-]. Most of these are named, nearly always awkwardly, after places: Illinoian, Desmoinesian, Croixian, Kimmeridgian, and so on in like [-3-] . Altogether, according to John McPhee, these number in the "tens of dozens." [---4---]

[---5---] Thus the North American Cincinnatian stage mostly corresponds with the Ashgillian stage in Europe, [-6-] a tiny bit of the slightly earlier Caradocian stage.

Also, all this changes from textbook to textbook and from person to person, so that some [-7-] describe seven recent epochs, while others are content with four. In some books, too, you will find the tertiary and quaternary taken out and replaced by periods of different lengths called the Palaeogene and Neogene. [---8---] Sometimes too you will see the term Phanerozoic used to describe the span encompassing the Cenozoic, Mesozoic, and Paleozoic eras.
