If knowledge is power, then books are fuel and libraries are power stations! Here are four amazing libraries that can get you positively charged.
New York Public Library—New York
Opened in 1911, New York Public Library was the largest marble building in the world. Over the years the library has a collection of 53 million items, including rare first edition books, 300 million pages of historical newspapers and around 40 ,000 restaurant menus dating back to 1850!
Chetham's Library— Manchester
Founded in 1653, Chetham's Library is a free public library with the longest history in the UK. The building itself is even older —built in 1421, it's one of the most well—protected medieval buildings in England!
With 100 ,000 + books lining the shelves, the special atmosphere of the library attracts students and scholars alike to attend guided tours offered throughout the year.
The Library of Congress Washington, D. C.
Located on Capitol Hill, the Library of Congress is considered the national library of the US and the second largest library in the world. The library has around 168 million items, adding 10 ,000 to this number every day.
Need to catch up on the news The Library of Congress, which was founded in 1800, holds the world’s largest newspaper collection, with some dating back as far as 1659!
The British Library—London
The British Library was founded in 1973. With around 170 million items spread across 750 km of shelving, it's the largest library in the world. And this number is continually growing and 8 km of shelving has to be added every year! This is partly because the British Library must receive a copy of every publication produced in the UK and Ireland, by law.
1. Where can you visit the oldest library
A. In New York. B. In London.
C. In Manchester. D. In Washington, D. C.
2. What makes the Library of Congress special

D. Its newspaper collection.
3. Which of the following helps enlarge the collection of the British Library

【答案】1. C 2. D 3. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇应用文，短文介绍了世界上的几家图书馆的相关信息。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据New York Public Library—New York中的“ in 1911”Chetham's Library— Manchester中“in 1653”。The Library of Congress Washington, D. C.中的“ in 1800”。The British Library—London中的“in 1973.”可知在曼彻斯特可以参观最古老的图书馆。故选C项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据The Library of Congress Washington, D. C.中的“
The Library of Congress, which was founded in 1800, holds the world’s largest newspaper collection, with some dating back as far as 1659!”（ 美国国会图书馆成立于1800年，拥有世界上最大的报纸收藏，其中一些可以追溯到1659年!）由此可知，国会图书馆特别之处在于报纸收藏。故选D项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题，根据The British Library—London中的“And this number is continually growing and 8 km of shelving has to be added every year! This is partly because the British Library must receive a copy of every publication produced in the UK and Ireland, by law.”（这个数字还在不断增长，每年都要增加8公里的货架!部分原因在于，根据法律规定，大英图书馆必须获得英国和爱尔兰出版的所有出版物的副本。）由此可知，法律规则有助于扩大大英图书馆的藏书。故选A项。

Jerilee Melo has been teaching preschool for four years. When COVID-19 shut down her school, she began to wonder what her next Career move would be.
After several months, Melo decided to take a risk. She found a bus on Facebook Marketplace and purchased it in hopes of setting up her own teaching space.
Melo renovated (翻新) the bus and in August began teaching her first preschoolers, many of them her students in previous classrooms. To keep safe, Melo spread her class so that there were never more than five children on the bus with masks on.
Melo doesn’t move the bus during lessons, but parks it at a certain location and allows it to serve as a mobile classroom that utilizes the surroundings.
While her bus was renovated for teaching, Melo hadn’t been able to decorate it. In November she decided to enter a contest with Brittany Jeltema, a former teacher who now hosts giveaways for classroom makeovers (重新布置). Much to Melo’s surprise, Jeltema reached out telling her that she won.
“Jeri’s application stood out, because it was such an innovative approach to education,” Jeltema said.“Jeri submitted pictures of her bus before the makeover, and my brain lit up with ideas. I knew I could help create an engaging environment for her students.”
Over the course of a weekend, Jeltema and her team flew to Valencia, California, and transformed Melo’s mobile classroom into a 70’s style bus.
With her bus, Melo hopes to inspire other teachers to get creative during these unprecedented times.
“A lot of teachers are scared right now, because they feel they need to be in a classroom to educate. And they don’t,” Melo said. “I think teachers need to expand and go beyond the classroom, because what they have is valuable.”
4. Why did Melo buy a bus
A. To test a risky business. B. To build a market.
C. To expand her living space. D. To continue her career.
5. How did Melo protect students and herself from COVID-19
A. By driving the bus along. B. By reducing learning duration.
C. By reducing the class size. D. By teaching in remote surroundings.
6. How did Brittany Jeltema feel about Melo’s application
A. Scared. B. Impressed. C. Surprised. D. Curious.
7. According to Melo, in what way can teachers stop feeling scared
A. By following their dreams. B. By beautifying classrooms.
C. By thinking outside the box. D. By concentrating on students.
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. C
【解析】

【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“She found a bus on Facebook Marketplace and purchased it in hopes of setting up her own teaching space. (她在Facebook Marketplace上找到了一辆公交车，并买下了它，希望能建立自己的教学空间。)”可知，她是为了继续教学事业才买的公交车。故选D项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“To keep safe, Melo spread her class so that there were never more than five children on the bus with masks on. (为了安全起见，Melo把她班级的学生分散开来，这样车上戴口罩的孩子不会超过5个。)”可知，她通过把学生分开，减小班级规模，来保护自己和学生免受新冠病毒感染。故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段中Jeltema所说“Jeri’s application stood out, because it was such an innovative approach to education (Jeri的申请脱颖而出，因为这是一种非常创新的教育方法)”可以推知，Brittany Jeltema对Melo的申请印象深刻。故选B项。
【7题详解】

C
You can tell the man sitting next to you in the movie theater is a smoker, you can smell it on his clothes. But since he's not lighting up and smoking your way, it's OK, right Not at all. A new study out of Yale University says thirdhand smoke is also dangerous.
Thirdhand “smoke” isn't actually smoke at all. It's the tobacco contaminants （烟草污染物） that stick to walls, bedding, carpet and even a smoker's body and clothes.
Science has known about the environmental pollution caused by smoking for years, leading to the creation of smoking and non-smoking rooms at hotels, restaurants and the like. But thirdhand smoke has also been found in environments that were not known to be polluted by smokers, leading researchers to ask how that could happen.
To find out, Professor Gentner and his students set up an experiment in a movie theater that had not allowed smoking for more than 15 years. They supplied fresh air into the theater, making sure no smoking or other pollutants entered it. Special equipment measured the elements in the air before and after moviegoers arrived.
The team saw a sharp increase in levels of dangerous chemicals. As people came into the theater, the concentrations （浓度） went up, and then dropped over time. But they didn't completely disappear after the audience left. In many cases, the lasting pollution was noticeable the following day in the empty theater. Pollution happened where smoking had never occurred. Even more worrying: the harm of it could equal that of smoking 10 cigarettes by the end of the movie.
“If future research has the same findings on thirdhand smoke, it means that smokers could potentially still do harm even if the act of smoking took place in a different space.” said Narula, a doctor who was not involved in the research. “And the only way to be free from thirdhand smoke is nothing short of banning （禁止） smoking everywhere.”
8. What do we know about thirdhand smoke
A. It is the main factor of environmental pollution.
B. It causes much less harm than smoking cigarettes.
C. It's the remains of harmful chemicals from smoking.
D. It does not occur in an environment without smokers.
9. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 4
A. Add some background information.
B. Introduce the procedure of the experiment.
C. Provide some research data for the readers.
D. Make a summary of the previous paragraph.
10. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 5 refer to
A. Concentrations. B. People. C. Levels. D. Dangerous chemicals.
11. What can we infer from what Narula said
A. Smokers should keep away from non-smokers.
B. The harm of thirhand smoke remains to be proved.
C. Future research will hardly produce the same result.
D. There is no way to remove the harm of thirdhand smoke.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文，介绍了三手烟（烟草污染物）的危害。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Thirdhand ‘smoke’ isn't actually smoke at all. It's the tobacco contaminants (烟草污染物)that stick to walls, bedding, carpet and even a smoker's body and clothes. (三手烟实际上不是吸烟，它是粘在墙上，毛毯，甚至吸烟者身上和衣服上的烟草污染物)”可知，三手烟是吸烟者身上和衣服上的烟草污染物，即：吸烟后残留的有害化学物质，故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“To find out, Professor Gentner and his students set up an experiment in a movie theater that had not allowed smoking for more than 15 years. (为了查明真相，Gentner教授和他的学生在一家禁止吸烟已经有15年的电影院开始试验)”可知，本段在介绍试验开展的过程。故选B。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第五段第一句“The team saw a sharp increase in levels of dangerous chemicals. (实验小组看见危险化学物质的含量在急速上升)”可知，他们实验主要观察危险化学物质的含量的变化。因此“But they didn't completely disappear after the audience left.”中的they指代危险化学物质，故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“If future research has the same findings on thirdhand smoke, it means that smokers could potentially still do harm even if the act of smoking took place in a different space.” said Narula, (如果将来关于三手烟的研究有了相同的发现，这就意味着即使吸烟发生在不同的地方，吸烟者依旧有潜在的危害)”可知，这个研究结果还有待于将来更多的考证，故选B。
D
British sculptor Jason Taylor has made it his mission to use his talent to conserve our ecosystems by creating underwater museums. Over the years, the environmentalist has put over 850 massive artworks underwater worldwide. On February 1, 2021, Taylor launched his latest work---The Underwater Museum of Cannes.
“The main goal was to bring attention to the fact that our oceans need our help,” Taylor told Dezeen. “Ocean ecologies have been destroyed by human activity in the Mediterranean over the past few decades, and it is not obvious what is taking place when observing the sea from afar.”
The Underwater Museum of Cannes contains 6 sculptures featuring local residents of various ages. They range from Maurice, an 80-year-old fisherman, to Anouk, a 9-year-old student. Towering over 6-feet-tall and weighing 10 tons, the faces are sectioned into two parts, with the outer part like a mask. The mask indicates that the world’s oceans appear powerful and unbeatable from the surface but house an ecosystem that is extremely fragile to careless human activities.
Though the waters surrounding the sculptures now appear a pristine blue, the seabed was filled with old boat engines, pipes, and other human-made trash when the project began about four years ago. Besides removing the trash, Taylor also restored the area’s seagrass. Just one square meter of the seagrass can generate up to 10 liters of oxygen daily. The seagrass also helps prevent coastal erosion and provides habitats for many ocean creatures.
“The idea of creating an underwater museum was to draw more people underwater and develop a sense of care and protection,” Taylor told Dezeen. “If we threw unwanted waste near a forest, there would be a public outcry. But this is happening every day in our surrounding waters and it largely goes unnoticed.”
12. What are the underwater museums intended to do
A To make huge profits. B. To raise awareness of protecting the ocean.
C. To show Jason Taylor’s talent. D. To draw attention to endangered sea animals.
13. Why does the outer part of the sculptures look like a mask
A. To popularize the features of the locals.
B. To remind people to protect themselves.
C. To reflect people’s protection of the ocean.
D. To stress the sensitiveness of the ecosystem.
14. What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about
A. How the project was started. B. How the seagrass was restored.
C. What recovery effort the project made. D. Why the surroundings were improved.
15. What can we infer from what Jason Taylor said in the last paragraph
A. The situation of the ocean is easily ignored.
B. The destruction caused to the ocean is noticeable.
C. Forests play a more important role in ecosystems.
D. People have zero tolerance to damage done to nature.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲了Taylor创建水下博物馆的初衷以及该项目所造成的积极影响。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段““The main goal was to bring attention to the fact that our oceans need our help,” Taylor told Dezeen.”（Taylor告诉Dezeen记者:“我们的主要目标是让人们注意到我们的海洋需要我们的帮助。” ）可知水下博物馆旨在提高人们保护海洋的意识。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Towering over 6-feet-tall and weighing 10 tons, the faces are sectioned into two parts, with the outer part like a mask. The mask indicates that the world’s oceans appear powerful and unbeatable from the surface but house an ecosystem that is extremely fragile to careless human activities.”（这些脸有6英尺高，重达10吨，被分成两部分，外部部分像一个面具。 这幅面具表明，从表面上看，世界上的海洋似乎强大而不可战胜，但它的生态系统对于粗心大意的人类活动来说极其脆弱）可知雕塑的外部看起来像一个面具是为了强调生态系统的敏感性。故选D。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Though the waters surrounding the sculptures now appear a pristine blue, the seabed was filled with old boat engines, pipes, and other human-made trash when the project began about four years ago. Besides removing the trash, Taylor also restored the area’s seagrass. Just one square meter of the seagrass can generate up to 10 liters of oxygen daily. The seagrass also helps prevent coastal erosion and provides habitats for many ocean creatures.”（虽然雕塑周围的水域现在呈现出一种纯净的蓝色，但当该项目大约四年前开始时，海底充满了旧的船只引擎、管道和其他人造垃圾。 除了清理垃圾，泰勒还恢复了该地区的海草。 仅仅一平方米的海草每天就能产生多达10升的氧气。 海草还有助于防止海岸侵蚀，并为许多海洋生物提供栖息地）可知第四段主要讲了项目做出了哪些恢复努力。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““The idea of creating an underwater museum was to draw more people underwater and develop a sense of care and protection,” Taylor told Dezeen. “If we threw unwanted waste near a forest, there would be a public outcry. But this is happening every day in our surrounding waters and it largely goes unnoticed.””（Taylor告诉Dezeen的记者:“创建水下博物馆的想法是为了吸引更多的人在水下，并培养一种关心和保护的意识。” “如果我们在森林附近扔垃圾，会引起公众的强烈抗议。 但这种情况每天都在我们周围的水域发生，而且很大程度上被忽视了。” ）可推断出海洋的情况很容易被忽视。故选A。

【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文，讲述了中国 “四大新发明” 改善了人们的生活，也在改变着世界。
【36题详解】
考查名词。句意：中国以“四大新发明”——高铁、电子支付、共享自行车和网上购物——再次展示了它改变世界的能力。空前有形容词new，应修饰名词；invent是动词，名词为 invention；根据数词four可知应为名词复数形式。故填inventions。
【37题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：中国新一代高铁——“复兴号”动车组列车，时速可达350公里，是目前世界上最快的列车之一。分析句子结构，“____ can travel at a speed of 350 km/h”是非限制性定语从句, 修饰先行词the Fuxing Hao，指物，在从句中做主语，用which引导非限制性定语从句。故填which。
【38题详解】
考查形容词。句意：中国新一代高铁——“复兴号”动车组列车，时速可达350公里，是目前世界上最快的列车之一。根据句意，应为“最快的列车之一”，用fast的最高级形式，故填fastest。
【39题详解】
考查时态。句意：在过去的十年里，中国还通过许多其他创新的方式改善了人们的生活。时间状语over the last ten years常与现在完成时连用，表示对现在的影响和结果，意为“已经改善了”；主语是China,谓语动词用单数，故填has improved。
【40题详解】
考查代词。句意：但中国已经使它在国内和海外更方便、更受欢迎。所填词指代上一句的bike sharing，故填it。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：当你骑共用自行车时，你可以停下来买、吃任何你想吃的东西，短语stop to do …“停下来做….”，故填to buy。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意：当你骑一辆共用自行车时，你可以停下来买、吃任何你想吃的东西，只需轻轻点击你的手机。修饰介词短语with a tap on your phone应该用副词。故填simply。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：通过扫描卖家的二维码，你就可以轻松地使用智能手机支付。介词by意为“凭借/通过…途径/方式” ，后接动名词作宾语；scan的动名词形式要双写n，故填scanning。
【44题详解】
考查冠词。句意：无现金支付已经成为中国人的一种选择。根据句意，此处为不定冠词a 表示数量，意为“一个，一种”；choice的发音是以辅音音素开头，因此用不定冠词a。故填a。
【45题详解】
考查固定短语。句意：这四种创新的生活方式对参与“一带一路”建设的20个国家的青年人最具吸引力。短语take part in “参加”，故填in。

It was summer, and my dad wanted to treat me to a vacation like never before. He decided to take me on a trip to the Wild West.
We took a plane to Albuquerque, a big city in the state of New Mexico. We reached Albuquerque in the late afternoon. Uncle Paul, my dad’s friend, picked us up from the airport and drove us up to his farm in Pecos.
His wife Tina cooked us a delicious dinner and we got to know his sons Ryan and Kyle. My dad and I spent the night in the guestroom of the farm house listening to the frogs and water rolling down the river nearby. Very early in the morning, Uncle Paul woke us up to have breakfast. “The day starts at dawn on my farm,” he said. After breakfast, I went to help Aunt Tina feed the chickens, while my dad went with Uncle Paul to take the sheep out to graze. I was impressed to see my dad and Uncle Paul riding horses. They looked really cool.
In the afternoon, I asked U ncle Paul if I could take a horse ride, and he said yes, as long as my dad went with me. I wasn’t going to take a horse ride by myself anyway. So, my dad and I put on our new cowboy hats, got on our horses, and headed slowly towards the mountains. “Don’t be late for supper,” Uncle Paul cried, “and keep to the track so that you don’t get lost!” “OK!” my dad cried back. After a while Uncle Paul and his farm house were out of sight. It was so peaceful and quiet and the colors of the brown rocks, the deep green pine trees, and the late afternoon sun mixed to create a magic scene. It looked like a beautiful woven blanket spread out upon the ground just for us.

【答案】Paragraph 1:
Suddenly a little rabbit jumped out in front of my horse. Dad and I found it was so cute that we decided to chase it. After a while, we were completely lost in the forest. There was nothing left in our sight but the trees. “We may not be able to make it back to the farm house in time for supper.” I thought to myself. After a series of fruitless attempts to find a way out, we felt hungry and tired.
Paragraph 2:
We had no idea where we were and it was getting dark. We got stuck in the forest. And an unexpected shower added to the difficulty of us in finding a way home, for all the tracks we had made disappeared because of the rain. I was almost on the edge of breaking down when my father said, “Don’t worry, my son. I remember there is a river near the farm house. Find the river and we will be back home.” Finally, we found the river and got back to the house along it. Needless to say, we ate a late dinner.

If knowledge is power, then books are fuel and libraries are power stations! Here are four amazing libraries that can get you positively charged.
New York Public Library—New York
Opened in 1911, New York Public Library was the largest marble building in the world. Over the years the library has a collection of 53 million items, including rare first edition books, 300 million pages of historical newspapers and around 40 ,000 restaurant menus dating back to 1850!
Chetham's Library— Manchester
Founded in 1653 Chetham's Library is a free public library with the longest history in the UK. The building itself is even older —built in 1421, it's one of the most well—protected medieval buildings in England!
With 100 ,000 + books lining the shelves, the special atmosphere of the library attracts students and scholars alike to attend guided tours offered throughout the year.
The Library of Congress Washington, D. C.
Located on Capitol Hill, the Library of Congress is considered the national library of the US and the second largest library in the world. The library has around 168 million items, adding 10 ,000 to this number every day.
Need to catch up on the news The Library of Congress, which was founded in 1800, holds the world’s largest newspaper collection, with some dating back as far as 1659!
The British Library—London

This is partly because the British Library must receive a copy of every publication produced in the UK and Ireland, by law.

Jerilee Melo has been teaching preschool for four years. When COVID-19 shut down her school, she began to wonder what her next Career move would be.
After several months, Melo decided to take a risk. She found a bus on Facebook Marketplace and purchased it in hopes of setting up her own teaching space.
Melo renovated (翻新) the bus and in August began teaching her first preschoolers, many of them her students in previous classrooms. To keep safe, Melo spread her class so that there were never more than five children on the bus with masks on.
Melo doesn’t move the bus during lessons, but parks it at a certain location and allows it to serve as a mobile classroom that utilizes the surroundings.
While her bus was renovated for teaching, Melo hadn’t been able to decorate it. In November she decided to enter a contest with Brittany Jeltema, a former teacher who now hosts giveaways for classroom makeovers (重新布置). Much to Melo’s surprise, Jeltema reached out telling her that she won.
“Jeri’s application stood out, because it was such an innovative approach to education,” Jeltema said.“Jeri submitted pictures of her bus before the makeover, and my brain lit up with ideas. I knew I could help create an engaging environment for her students.”
Over the course of a weekend, Jeltema and her team flew to Valencia, California, and transformed Melo’s mobile classroom into a 70’s style bus.
With her bus, Melo hopes to inspire other teachers to get creative during these unprecedented times.
“A lot of teachers are scared right now, because they feel they need to be in a classroom to educate. And they don’t,” Melo said. “I think teachers need to expand and go beyond the classroom, because what they have is valuable.”
4. Why did Melo buy a bus
A. To test a risky business. B. To build a market.
C. To expand her living space. D. To continue her career.
5. How did Melo protect students and herself from COVID-19
A. By driving the bus along. B. By reducing learning duration.
C. By reducing the class size. D. By teaching in remote surroundings.
6. How did Brittany Jeltema feel about Melo’s application
A. Scared. B. Impressed. C. Surprised. D. Curious.
7. According to Melo, in what way can teachers stop feeling scared
A. By following their dreams. B. By beautifying classrooms.
C. By thinking outside the box. D. By concentrating on students.

You can tell the man sitting next to you in the movie theater is a smoker, you can smell it on his clothes. But since he's not lighting up and smoking your way, it's OK, right Not at all. A new study out of Yale University says thirdhand smoke is also dangerous.
Thirdhand “smoke” isn't actually smoke at all. It's the tobacco contaminants （烟草污染物） that stick to walls, bedding, carpet and even a smoker's body and clothes.
Science has known about the environmental pollution caused by smoking for years, leading to the creation of smoking and non-smoking rooms at hotels, restaurants and the like. But thirdhand smoke has also been found in environments that were not known to be polluted by smokers, leading researchers to ask how that could happen.
To find out, Professor Gentner and his students set up an experiment in a movie theater that had not allowed smoking for more than 15 years. They supplied fresh air into the theater, making sure no smoking or other pollutants entered it. Special equipment measured the elements in the air before and after moviegoers arrived.
The team saw a sharp increase in levels of dangerous chemicals. As people came into the theater, the concentrations （浓度） went up, and then dropped over time. But they didn't completely disappear after the audience left. In many cases, the lasting pollution was noticeable the following day in the empty theater. Pollution happened where smoking had never occurred. Even more worrying: the harm of it could equal that of smoking 10 cigarettes by the end of the movie.
“If future research has the same findings on thirdhand smoke, it means that smokers could potentially still do harm even if the act of smoking took place in a different space.” said Narula, a doctor who was not involved in the research. “And the only way to be free from thirdhand smoke is nothing short of banning （禁止） smoking everywhere.”
8. What do we know about thirdhand smoke
A. It is the main factor of environmental pollution.
B. It causes much less harm than smoking cigarettes.
C. It's the remains of harmful chemicals from smoking.
D. It does not occur in an environment without smokers.
9. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 4
A. Add some background information.
B. Introduce the procedure of the experiment.
C. Provide some research data for the readers.
D. Make a summary of the previous paragraph.
10. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 5 refer to
A. Concentrations. B. People. C. Levels. D. Dangerous chemicals.
11. What can we infer from what Narula said
A. Smokers should keep away from non-smokers.
B. The harm of thirhand smoke remains to be proved.
C. Future research will hardly produce the same result.
D. There is no way to remove the harm of thirdhand smoke.
D
British sculptor Jason Taylor has made it his mission to use his talent to conserve our ecosystems by creating underwater museums. Over the years, the environmentalist has put over 850 massive artworks underwater worldwide. On February 1, 2021, Taylor launched his latest work---The Underwater Museum of Cannes.
“The main goal was to bring attention to the fact that our oceans need our help” Taylor told Dezeen. “Ocean ecologies have been destroyed by human activity in the Mediterranean over the past few decades, and it is not obvious what is taking place when observing the sea from afar.”
The Underwater Museum of Cannes contains 6 sculptures featuring local residents of various ages. They range from Maurice, an 80-year-old fisherman, to Anouk, a 9-year-old student. Towering over 6-feet-tall and weighing 10 tons, the faces are sectioned into two parts, with the outer part like a mask. The mask indicates that the world’s oceans appear powerful and unbeatable from the surface but house an ecosystem that is extremely fragile to careless human activities.
Though the waters surrounding the sculptures now appear a pristine blue, the seabed was filled with old boat engines, pipes, and other human-made trash when the project began about four years ago. Besides removing the trash, Taylor also restored the area’s seagrass. Just one square meter of the seagrass can generate up to 10 liters of oxygen daily. The seagrass also helps prevent coastal erosion and provides habitats for many ocean creatures.
“The idea of creating an underwater museum was to draw more people underwater and develop a sense of care and protection,” Taylor told Dezeen. “If we threw unwanted waste near a forest, there would be a public outcry. But this is happening every day in our surrounding waters and it largely goes unnoticed.”
12. What are the underwater museums intended to do
A. To make huge profits. B. To raise awareness of protecting the ocean.
C. To show Jason Taylor’s talent. D. To draw attention to endangered sea animals.
13. Why does the outer part of the sculptures look like a mask
A. To popularize the features of the locals.
B. To remind people to protect themselves.
C. To reflect people’s protection of the ocean.
D. To stress the sensitiveness of the ecosystem.
14. What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about
A. How the project was started. B. How the seagrass was restored.
C. What recovery effort the project made. D. Why the surroundings were improved.
15. What can we infer from what Jason Taylor said in the last paragraph
A. The situation of the ocean is easily ignored.
B. The destruction caused to the ocean is noticeable.
C. Forests play a more important role in ecosystems.
D. People have zero tolerance to damage done to nature.
