China's deep-sea manned submersible (载人潜水器)Fendouzhe recently set a national diving (潜水)record of 10,909 metres in the Mariana Trench.
Fendouzhe can find rare earth metals(稀土金属)in the deep sea. These are used to make high-tech products. The three researchers in the sub are also studying sea life that is only found in the deep sea. The researchers can use the sub's video camera to record what they find underwater. They can also collect some rocks, animals and plants there.
The area which Fendouzhe dove in is a very deep part of the Mariana Trench with very high water pressure (水压).Since it's so difficult to send manned submersibles to the deep sea, why not just send a robot "The ocean floor is dark and can be very cloudy, and cameras sometimes cannot discover things there as quickly as human eyes," Yang Ning, an ocean scientist, told China Daily.
What's more, the scientists in the sub have different backgrounds. If something abnormal happens, they can react more quickly than machines, which could lead to surprising discoveries.
11.What did Fendouzhe recently do
A.It broke a world diving record.
B.It discovered a new land.
C.It dove very deep in the Mariana Trench.
D.It took people to the deep sea for the first time.
12.What can't Fendouzhe be used for
A.Finding rare earth metals.
B.Making high-tech products.
C.Recording videos.
D.Collecting rocks, animals and plants.
13.What difficulty did Fendouzhe face in the deep sea according to the text
A.High water pressure. B.Large stones.
C.Strong wind. D.Dangerous animals.
14.Which paragraphs explain the reason why robots can't work well in the deep sea
A.②③ B.③④ C.③⑤ D.④⑤
15.In which part of a magazine can you read the text
A. Health and sport. B. History and culture.
C. Science and technology. D. Population and environment.

Students have many different ways to go to school. Which is the best Some students like going to school on foot, because they think it's the easiest way for them. owever, when you are in a hurry, it may be not so fast as other ways. Riding the bike to school is also a good choice for many students. That's because it's faster than walking. For parents, they sometimes think it's not safe especially in the heavy traffic. For the fastest way,many students choose to take the bus. But it's always crowded with people in the morning.
I think each way has its advantages and disadvantages. The right one is the best! Whatever you choose, remember to be careful all the time!
