24、er.C. In a book. D. In a magazine.BAs a large, deep, freshwater lake in the Scottish Highlands, Loch Ness is best known for the so-called sightings of the mysterious Loch Ness monster. For many years it has been supposed that there is a large dinosaur-like monster in Loch Ness. However, several scie
25、ntific studies have been conducted and these have not shown any presence of such a monster. Many people believe that the size (21 square miles) and great depth of the lake (almost 800 feet), together with possible underwater caves, gives the monster many places to hide. Regardless of the truth, the
26、suggestion of the monsters existence makes Loch Ness one of Scotlands top tourist attractions. Loch Ness is the second largest Scottish lake by surface area after Loch Lomond, but as for its depth it is the largest by volume (容量). Its deepest point is230m(754 feet), deeper than the height of Londons
27、 BT (British Telecom) Tower at189m(620 feet) and deeper than any other lake except Loch Morar. It contains more fresh water than all lakes in England and Wales combined, and is the largest body of water on the Great Glen geologic fault (大峡谷断层) which runs from Inverness in the north to Fort William i
28、n the south. TheCaledonian Canal, which connects the sea at either end of the fault, uses Loch Ness for part of its route. It is one of a series of interconnected, dark bodies of water in Scotland; its water visibility (能见度) is extremely low because of a high peat (泥煤) content in the surrounding soi
29、l.The only island on Loch Ness is Cherry Island, visible at its southwestern end, near Fort Augustus. It is a crannog, which is a form of artificial island. (Most crannogs were constructed during the Iron Age.) At Drumnadrochit is the Loch - 8 -Ness Exhibition Centre which explores the mystery throu
30、gh the natural history of Loch Ness. Traveling on ships for pleasure is now available, and it gives visitors the chance to look for the monster. And there are more tourist attractions where the whole family can relax and have fun.39. What can we learn about the Loch Ness monster?A. It has moved to l

33、 is most likely to _.A. discuss B. introduce C. educate D. persuadeCChinese state media said that high-speed rail, electronic payment systems, bike sharing and online shopping, are Chinas “four new great inventions”. It attracted great attention online. Government-run Xinhua News Agency said the cou
34、ntry should also be praised, comparing them to the four innovations(四大发明) of ancient China. The so-called “four new great inventions” were based on last years research carried out by the Silk Road Research Institute. In the survey, - 9 -Chinas foreign students from 20 countries near the “Belt and Ro
35、ad Initiative(一带一路)” were asked to pick Chinas “four new great inventions” that they want their home countries to use. “Chinas trains are very clean, comfortable and cheap,” one of the foreign interviewees said. “Jack Mas Alipay is really helpful,” said Nabina who comes from Nepal. “I love bike shar
36、ing. It saves me a lot of time,” said one interviewee who comes from Russia. “Online shopping is convenient for customers,” a foreign interviewee said.Xinhuas article noted that “Among the four, high-speed rail and online shopping arent from China, but we bring the inventions to the worlds top level
37、 with our intelligence and innovation and make them Chinas calling card.”However, just a little research will show that not one of the four inventions were born in China. Online shopping was invented and used by Michael Aldrich in the U.K. in 1979, while the Japanese operated the first modern high-s
38、peed rail in 1964. Meanwhile, E-payment systems have been used in the United States since the 1990s, while bike-sharing services were already a thing in Europe way back in the 1960s.Even so, in recent years, a number of Chinas technological innovations have been making their moves in the world. Amon
39、g them, the four stand out with a reputation of Chinas “four great new inventions” in modern times, which have made the daily life of the public more and more convenient.43. According to the passage, the so-called “four new great inventions”_.A. caused much discussion worldwideB. were spoke highly b

42、ur new inventions” of ancient China.D. The information showing the “four new inventions” were not from China.46. What can we learn from the passage?A. Science and technology is changing the public.B. Chinas innovations took the leading position.C. The “four new inventions” have improved peoples life
43、.D. Foreign students shared their different ideas about the “four innovations” of ancient China.DThere are around 6,000 living languages in the world and at least half of these are in danger. In every part of the world, languages are disappearing. In fact, one scientist has said that languages are i
44、n more danger of extinction than birds or mammals. Professor Steve Sutherland of the University of East Anglia says that in the past 500 years 4.5 percent of languages have died out compared with 1.3 percent of birds, and 1.9 percent of mammals. Languages come and go, and thousands have done exactly
45、 that without leaving any trace (痕迹). Only a very few Basque, Greek and Latin among them have lasted more than 2,000 years. But it seems that the pace of their disappearance is becoming quicker.The Ethnologue, a database of all the languages spoken in the world, states that 417 languages are spoken
46、by so few people that they are in the final stages of becoming extinct. If very few people speak a language, it will probably die - 11 -out.Languages may be lost through migration (迁移), as people move from small towns to city centers, or when environments are destroyed by the search for oil or wood.
47、 Natural disasters can also devastate populations, and along with them, their language. Governments also play a role in the extinction of languages. The need to establish “official languages”, for a country to educate its children and carry out its business, had a disastrous effect on many small lan
48、guages.What is lost if a language is lost? Some people argue that languages die as the human race develops. Obviously there could be great benefits if everyone in the world spoke the same language some industries already reflect this, with English essential for pilots and air traffic controllers. But there are more important things than convenience. As languages are lost, whole ways of life and knowledge may be lost along with them.To put it simply, language expresses something about identity, about our place in the world.
