In April 2018, a group of Canadian scientists flying in a helicopter(直升飞机) discovered something they didn't expect to see—a huge, unknown cave with an opening the size of a football field.
The cave was discovered in the northern part of Wells Gray Provincial Park, in a wild, faraway area of Canada's Cariboo Mountains. The area is hard to get to and even harder to travel through. It is covered with snow for much of the year.
The group told Catherine Hickson, a scientist who studies rocks, about the cave. Dr. Hickson got a team of researchers together to study it. In September, they went for a closer look after most of the snow melted(融化). 12oda方 bd99wo5 v2c The cave is one of the largest in Canada. Not only is the opening to the cave larger than a football field, the cave is also deep. The team couldn't measure(测量)all the way to the bottom, but they think it may be more than 180 meters deep. The cave is tens of thousands of years old. But the rock in the cave is made of used to be at the bottom of an ocean(海洋). It is hundreds of millions of years old.
A small, but fast river of melting snow leads into the cave on one side, creating a waterfall near the top and a river at the bottom. The water comes out again a long way away. The exit(出口)is about 2. 1 kilometers away and about l/2 kilometer lower down.
The cave will have to wait to get an official name. For now, the cave is being called "Sarlacc's Pit "because it looks similar to the home of the Sarlacc, a person in the Star Wars movie Return of the Jedi.
For Dr. Hickson, there's a lesson to be learned from the cave. "It shows you that you don't know everything, "she says." There are things yet to be discovered. "
28. Why did the cave remain unknown in the past
A. It is in a wild mountain area. B. It has been there for just a few years.
C. Its opening is too small to be noticed. D. The weather there is cold all year round.
29. What are Paragraphs 4 and 5 mainly about

C. The value of studying the cave. D. The methods of studying the cave.
30. What does the underlined word "It" in Paragraph 4 refer to
A. The snow. B. The river. C. The ocean. D. The rock.
31. The cave's name "Sarlace's Pit" has something to do with _______________.
A. local culture B. its discoverers C. the way it looks D. the name of a film star D
An undersea cable(电缆)that connects the island nation of Tonga to the Internet has broken. As a result, Tongans will be without their main Internet connection for several weeks.
Touga is a country formed of about 169 islands in the South Pacific Ocean. Most of the country's 100, 000 people live on the main island, called Tongatapu. Like most island nations, Tonga gets its Internet through a cable that runs deep under the sea.
On the night of Sunday, January 20, the 514-mile(827-kilometer)cable that connects Tonga to Fiji got broken. No one is sure how it broke, but the most likely reason is that it was damaged by a ship pulling its anchor(锚).
In many places which use underwater cables, there is a backup cable. But because Tonga's cable is so long and costs so much money, and because not that many people live on Tonga, the country just has one cable.
The broken cable caused Tonga's Internet to stop almost completely. It was also impossible to make calls to other countries at first.
But an Internet company soon brought Internet service back using a satellite(人造卫星)connection. Banks and many government offices also have satellite connections. But this is much slower. For satellite Internet, all signals(信号)must be sent out into space and then come back to the ground somewhere else. Satellite connections only allow a small part of the Internet activity that is possible with an undersea cable.
As a result, Tongans have to think carefully about how the Internet will be used. A person speaking for the company that owns the cable said that about 80% of the Internet use in Tonga was for social media(社交媒体)sites, such as Facebook and YouTube. The country is thinking about blocking these social media sites until the problem is fixed.
A special repair ship is traveling to Tonga from Samoa to fix the cable, which is broken in two places. The repairs should begin on Monday or Tuesday and could take a week or longer. No one knows yet how much it will cost to fix the cable.
32. What may be the reason for Tonga's undersea cable's failure
A. The cable was hit by a lost ship. B. The cable was in poor condition.
C. The cable had a technical failure. D. The cable was broken by a ship.
33. Why did Tonga fail to lay a backup cable
A. A backup cable would be very costly.
B. The underwater condition makes it impossible.
C. People of the country disagreed about laying one.
D. The country didn't realize the importance of the Internet.
34.What can we learn about satellite Internet
A. It is expensive to use.
B. It carries more signals.
C. It works at slow speeds.
D. It supports most Internet use.
35.What does Tonga plan to do to make good use of satellite Internet
A. Allow Tongans to use it at night. B. Stop the use of social media sites.
C. Ask the Internet company for advice. D. Just allow government offices to use it.

Dear Mr. Smith,
I'm writing to express my sincerest thanks for your great speech. With your excellent lecture as a perfect start, all the students here had a heated discussion.
Thanks to your speech, not only did we learn that the Internet plays an important role in our daily life, but we also learned how much people benefit from it. You also pointed out that while the development of the Internet brings much convenience to our life, we should also realize the importance of using it correctly.
We really appreciate your attendance and look forward to your coming next time.
Yours,
Li Hua

M:How was your interview, Emily
W:It was pretty good. Two weeks ago, I had my phone
interview with Teach for America, and then this weekend, I had the in-person interview.
M:How was the in-person interview I heard it's really stressful.
W:Yeah, it was. It lasted all day.
M:When will you hear back
W:They said four weeks, so it's worth waiting. Have you
started looking for jobs yet Can you believe graduation is only a few months away
M:I've thought about it, but I get so anxious when I think about the future that I've stopped right now. I'm just going to focus on my studies for a bit longer. Once mid-term exams are over, I think I will start again.
M:I'm getting thirsty and was wondering if I may order a drink.
W:Yes, I would be happy to take your drink order. On this flight we have coffee, tea, beer and water. M:How much do drinks cost

W:We serve different meals for people with different tastes.
M:I'll have a look at the menu after a while. Thank you.

W:Did the children enjoy the holiday camp or were they all homesick
M:Well, I must admit some of the younger kids were a little bit unhappy because they'd never been away on their own before and didn't know some of the other kids. But soon they recovered. By the last day they didn't want to go home because they were having such a great time.
W:What sort of things did you do with them
M:Well, there were some trips, including a visit to
Hardwick Castle. That was what we did on the first day. I think they were expecting it to be rather boring, especially when they heard they were having a guided tour. But they were wrong—the guide was very interesting. He told them some interesting stories and really made the history of the castle come alive.
W:I can imagine—what sort of sports activities did they do
M:Sailing, climbing, horse-riding and the like. And on the last day we had a barbecue, which was their favorite. The kids enjoyed it very much. They all promised to come and get together again next year.

Now, I want to give you some information about the trip. Our first visit is to a factory where you'll be able to see how chocolate is made. You don't need to pay to go into the factory, but don't forget to bring some money because I'm sure some of you will want to go to the shop after the tour. Then the bus will take us somewhere else for lunch. We're going to stop for a picnic by a river. The school is providing the food, so you don't need to bring sandwiches, but please bring something to drink. After lunch, well go into the town center, and there are two organized activities on offer. The first is to go to the Grand Theater to see a dance show. The tickets are normally 26 dollars, but as you're all students, you can get in for 15 dollars, which will save you 1l dollars. If that doesn't interest you, there'll be another teacher to go with you to a museum, which is really interesting and doesn't cost anything. I've got some information about it here if you'd like to know more.
