Recently discovered in central eastern Antarctica, the Gamburtsev mountain range is a group of tall mountains covered by a thick layer of ice. Despite conducting several studies of the Gamburtsev range, geologists have not yet come to an agreement about how the mountains originally formed. There are three theories about the origin of the mountains.
Hotspot
One theory is that the Gamburtsev range was originally created by the activity of a volcanic “hotspot.” Hotspots are extremely hot regions located beneath Earth’s crust. A volcanic mountain can be created when a hotspot forces hot molten rock, or magma, through the crust to Earth’s surface. A series of mountains such as the Gamburtsev range could form as the crust slowly moved over a hotspot.
Continental Plate Collision
Another way mountains can form is when moving regions of Earth’s crust, called continental plates, collide. The force of such collisions can lift up mountain ranges. There is evidence that the Antarctic plate underwent a collision with another plate 250 million years ago. It is possible that the Gamburtsev range was created during that collision.
Ice
According to a third theory, the Gamburtsev range was created through the impact of Antarctic ice. 14 million years ago, most surface water on the Antarctic continent became frozen. A thick layer of ice has covered Antarctica’s surface ever since. The impact of the ice on the underlying crust may have caused the mountains to form. An ice layer can grind away rocks underneath it and make Earth’s crust thinner in some areas. A thinner crust is more sensitive to the geological forces beneath it and can be easily lifted to form a mountain range.

详细考题回忆：
Doctor Achebe:
Let’s consider how schools allocate their funds for various resources, with a focus on the allocation between teacher salaries and other resources such as computers and books. What do you think is the best way for schools to prioritize their spending? Should more funds go towards increasing teacher salaries to attract and retain quality educators, or should they invest more in technology and learning materials like computers and books?
Claire:
I think raising teachers’ salaries is crucial because it can encourage people to view teaching as a viable profession rather than pursuing careers in other industries. Additionally, offering competitive wages can attract some of the brightest and most talented individuals to become teachers. When teachers are fairly compensated, it not only motivates them to excel in their roles but also enhances the overall quality of education.
Paul:
Teacher salaries are already quite competitive, and it may be more prudent to allocate resources toward improving student equipment and providing up-to-date materials. Enhancing the learning environment with better technology and modern educational resources can greatly benefit students’ education.
