DIVING DEEP
潜入深海
Lying under waters across the globe are an estimated three million shipwrecks.
全球水域下大约沉睡着三百万艘沉船残骸。
All of them represent attempts over the centuries to explore Earth's furthest corners.
所有这些船都代表了若干世纪以来探索地球最远角落的努力尝试。
Among these is the Esmeralda, the earliest wreck from the age of the European exploration of Asia.
其中就包括了“埃斯梅拉达”号，它是欧洲国家探索亚洲时代留下的最早残骸。
Today, some 500 years after the Esmeralda set sail, there is little—if any—land on our planet left unexplored.
如今，距离“埃斯梅拉达”号起航已有500多年，我们星球上即便有尚未被人类探索的土地，也少之又少了。
We have more detailed maps of the Moon, and even of Venus and Mars, than we do of Earth's own sea bed.
我们手中关于地球自身海底的地图，甚至比不上月球乃至金星、火星的天体图详尽。
①shipwreck n. 失事的船；沉船 ②“主句(We have more ... Mars)＋比较状语从句(than ... sea bed)”。其中do代替have，避免与主句重复。
Given our limited knowledge, it is perhaps no surprise that exploration of the oceans continues to lead to discoveries in various scientific fields.
基于我们有限的认知，探索海洋可以带来许多科学领域的新发现，这也许就显得不足为奇了。
As with the discovery of the Esmeralda, many archaeological finds are made in shallow waters near the coast.
正如发现“埃斯梅拉达”号的残骸一样，很多考古学发现都发生在近海岸的浅水水域。
These may sometimes include whole cities buried beneath the waves.
这些发现有时会包括埋在海浪下的整座城市。
One such find is the ancient Roman city of Neápolis, discovered off the coast of Tunisia.
其中之一便是在突尼斯近海发现的古罗马城市奈阿波利斯。
Believed to have been buried underwater by a tsunami in the fourth century AD, the ruins of Neápolis are almost 2，000 years old.
据悉，在公元4世纪，奈阿波利斯被一场海啸淹没，其废墟至今已有近2，000年的历史。
The remaining streets and buildings offer a window into a fascinating period in our history.
残存的街道和建筑为我们提供了一扇窗，让我们得以窥见我们历史中那段精彩时期。
However, we are only beginning to overcome the challenges of pressure, darkness and extreme cold at vast depths.
然而，在巨大的深度下，我们才刚开始克服压力、黑暗和极端寒冷的挑战。
Fragments of the past lying deep beneath the oceans are still waiting to be discovered.
过去的碎片仍深藏在大洋底部，等待被发现。
③archaeological adj. 考古学的；考古的 ④“形式主语(it)系(is)表(no surprise)＋真正的主语(that exploration ... fields)”。that引导主语从句，结构为“主(exploration of the oceans)谓(continues)宾(to lead to ... fields)”。
Amazing biological discoveries are also being made.
生物学领域也有惊人的发现。
The dark zones of the oceans may contain up to 90 per cent of the planet's fish.
海洋的黑暗区域里或许生存着多达地球上90%的鱼类。
In these waters, more than 200 metres deep, where light cannot reach, are extraordinary creatures that appear as if they are straight out of science fiction.
在200多米以下、阳光照不到的深水水域里，住着一些看起来就像是直接从科幻小说中走出来的奇异生物。
Imagine bone white coral 6，000 metres below the ocean's surface, growing at the rate of only one or two millimetres per year.
想象一下，在海平面下6，000米深处，骨白色的珊瑚每年仅以一到两毫米的速度缓慢生长着。
Some of these could be 4，000 years old.
它们中有些已经活了4，000年。
⑤coral n. 珊瑚 ⑥millimetre n. 毫米 ⑦“表(In these waters)系(are)主(extraordinary creatures)”。本句为完全倒装句。where引导定语从句，修饰these waters; that 引导定语从句，修饰creatures；as if引导表语从句。
Swimming through these black depths is the barreleye, a strange fish with eyes that can look upwards through its transparent forehead.
漆黑的深海里游来游去的是管眼鱼，一种奇特的鱼，其眼睛可以透过透明的前额向上看。
In the very deepest ocean trenches that are more than 8，000 metres below the surface, the pressure is equivalent to 50 aeroplanes stacked one on top of another.
在海平面以下8，000多米处最深的海沟里，压强相当于50架飞机堆叠在一起。
Yet there is still life to be found, even around the deep sea volcanic openings.
然而这里仍有生命的存在，甚至在深海海底的火山口周围也有生命。
These discoveries all help us understand the capacity for life on our planet, even in the most extreme circumstances.
这些深海发现帮助我们理解地球上生命的承受力，甚至是在最极端的环境下(的承受力)。
⑧barreleye n. 管眼鱼 ⑨upwards adv. 向上，朝上 ⑩trench n. 海沟 equivalent adj. 等同的；等值的； 相当的 stack v. (使)整齐地堆起；摞起
Furthermore, the oceans are a valuable source of natural resources, some of which are completely new to us.
此外，海洋是自然资源的宝贵来源，其中一些对我们来说完全是新的资源。
Most notable of these is China's discovery of an ice like substance, known as “fire ice”， under the South China Sea.
最值得一提的便是中国在南海发现的冰状物质——可燃冰。
In addition, China's underwater vessels, such as the Jiaolong and Shenhai Yongshi, have been exploring waters at depths of thousands of metres.
此外，中国的水下舰艇如“蛟龙”号和“深海勇士”号，一直在数千米深的水域探索。
The Jiaolong even holds the record for the deepest dive by a manned submarine, at 7，062 metres, giving China its place alongside the world's top ocean explorers.
“蛟龙”号甚至创造了载人潜舰的最深下潜纪录7，062米，使中国跻身于世界顶级海洋探索国之列。
The research conducted by these vessels is giving scientists a greater understanding of how the sea bed was formed, as well as helping identify areas for deep sea drilling, taking deep sea exploration into a whole new era.
借助这些潜水器所完成的研究有利于科学家进一步了解海床是如何形成的，帮助确定深海钻探区域，将深海勘探带入一个崭新的时代。
furthermore adv. 此外；而且； 不仅如此 notable adj. 显要的；显著的；值得注意的 substance n. 物质 vessel n. 船；舰 drilling n. 钻探；勘探 “主(The research)谓(is giving)间宾(scientists)直宾(a greater understanding ... was formed)＋as well as＋并列谓语(helping)宾语(identify ... drilling)”。conducted by these vessels是过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰The research；how ... formed是how引导的宾语从句；taking deep sea ... era是现在分词短语作结果状语。
Being a tough environment of complete darkness, enormous pressure and intense cold, the ocean depths have long been beyond the reach of human exploration.
深海区域环境恶劣，完全黑暗、压强极大、极度寒冷，长期以来都是人类探索无法企及的区域。
However, through closer international scientific, economic and cultural cooperation, we are all becoming part of a global mission to open up our planet's final frontier.
然而，通过更紧密的国际科学、经济以及文化合作，我们都在成为开拓地球最后疆域这一全球使命的参与者。
Humankind is entering a new age of oceanic discovery, and the world beneath the waves may one day be almost as familiar to us as the land we walk upon today.
人类正走向海洋发现的新时代，或许有朝一日，我们会像熟悉脚下的土地一样熟悉海浪下的世界。
“分句(Humankind ... discovery)＋and＋分句(the world ... today)”。第二个分句中包括as ... as结构，意为“和……一样”；we walk upon today是省略了that/which的定语从句，修饰the land。
up to 达到；多达(教材P75)

Ⅰ 阅读
Born in Wales in 1950, Martin Lockley was a pioneer in the study of the dinosaur tracks and footprints preserved in rocks around the world. His work helped his fellow paleontologists (古生物学家) understand what the footprints can tell us about dinosaurs and the world that they lived in.
The footprints and tracks left behind by dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals are called trace fossils (痕迹化石). They can offer clues to how quickly an animal walked or ran and even what their skin may have looked pared with the body fossils of bones and teeth, trace fossils contain evidence of the interactions that the animals had with their environment and can describe what the physical environment may have looked like. They offer a more reliable way to imagine the speed of a dinosaur than analyzing the bones.
Lockley's mother and father were nature lovers. Lockley loved to observe nature. His father inspired him to “just go out and observe and trust your observations”， which proved important in Lockley's launching his future career in dinosaur research. He took that advice with him to Gunnison, southwest of Denver, the United States. While North America is home to some of the largest number of fossil footprints in the world, Lockley's work with prints and his father's words took him far and wide. He explored fossil and track sites in China, South Korea, Spain and the United Kingdom.
In addition to finding the tracks, Lockley devoted time and energy to preserving these important parts of the fossil record. This includes guiding the politics needed to create UNESCO world heritage sites so that future generations wouldn't lose out on these precious relics of the past.
篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。Martin Lockley (马丁·洛克利)是研究世界各地岩石中保存的恐龙足迹的先驱。他的工作帮助他的古生物学家同行们了解了这些足迹能告诉我们的关于恐龙和它们生活的世界的信息。

Ⅳ 读后续写
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was born and grew up in the north of Scotland, which was not far from the sea. When I was little, I enjoyed the seaside scenery very much. I often sat on the rock by the sea and watched the view of the sea. I was fond of playing with the sand on the beach and chased the waves with my old sister, Alastair.
Across the beach there was a tidal (潮汐的) island, which means that when the tide goes out, you can walk to it, but when the tide comes in again, you can't get to it. Mum and Dad never let us go there. They told us that it was dangerous. However, the tidal island was full of mystery to me. I said to myself. “There must be some fascinating scenery worth exploring. How I wish I had a chance to land on it！”
On a little cold day in October, while my parents were away for a friend's wedding, my sister was determined to take me to the beach near our house, where we would have a good time. I wanted to build sand castles.
When we arrived at the beach, the tide was out. We ran on the beach back and forth and enjoyed ourselves very much. With the help of my sister, I made several sand castles of different shapes. Feeling a little tired, I sat on the beach for a break. I saw the tidal island, which looked very nice in the autumn sunshine.
“Let's go to explore the tidal island, Alastair，” I said to my sister.
“That's a good idea. But Mum and Dad said we couldn't. Maybe we won't return safely！” Alastair said.
“Don't worry! We'll try to return before the tide comes in again.” I begged Alastair.
Finally she agreed. We returned home and brought some peanut butter sandwiches and a bottle of milk with us.

写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者常和姐姐去海边玩耍，父母不允许她们去海边的潮汐岛，因为那里很危险，但十月的某一天姐妹二人还是决定上岛探索。两人上岛后看到了什么？最终她们平安归来了吗？
[精彩范文]
Then we set off for the tidal island. We walked over the sand to the island and started to explore. There was an old ruined church and a few abandoned buildings full of mysteries. Seagulls were flying in the sky, wild flowers blooming by the roadside. On the other side of the island we enjoyed milk and sandwiches, throwing stones into the sea. After a bit, dark clouds covered the sun and it got windy. I said, “I'm cold and I want to go home.” We walked back over the island to the beach. But we couldn't find it! It wasn't there any more!
The tide came in and covered the beach and the water was too deep and cold for me. We were in a dangerous situation. Frightened, I couldn't help crying. “Calm down，” shouted Alastair. “Quick! We have to return before it's too late! Climb on my back quickly.” The water was up to her lap, but Alastair was very strong and struggled through the waves with me on her back. We managed to return to the land safely. Later, our parents learned what had happened to us. They were scared and criticized us. We promised not to risk ourselves again.

DIVING DEEP
潜入深海
Lying under waters across the globe are an estimated three million shipwrecks.
全球水域下大约沉睡着三百万艘沉船残骸。
All of them represent attempts over the centuries to explore Earth's furthest corners.
所有这些船都代表了若干世纪以来探索地球最远角落的努力尝试。
Among these is the Esmeralda, the earliest wreck from the age of the European exploration of Asia.
其中就包括了“埃斯梅拉达”号，它是欧洲国家探索亚洲时代留下的最早残骸。
Today, some 500 years after the Esmeralda set sail, there is little—if any—land on our planet left unexplored.
如今，距离“埃斯梅拉达”号起航已有500多年，我们星球上即便有尚未被人类探索的土地，也少之又少了。
We have more detailed maps of the Moon, and even of Venus and Mars, than we do of Earth's own sea bed.
我们手中关于地球自身海底的地图，甚至比不上月球乃至金星、火星的天体图详尽。

Given our limited knowledge, it is perhaps no surprise that exploration of the oceans continues to lead to discoveries in various scientific fields.
基于我们有限的认知，探索海洋可以带来许多科学领域的新发现，这也许就显得不足为奇了。
As with the discovery of the Esmeralda, many archaeological finds are made in shallow waters near the coast.
正如发现“埃斯梅拉达”号的残骸一样，很多考古学发现都发生在近海岸的浅水水域。
These may sometimes include whole cities buried beneath the waves.
这些发现有时会包括埋在海浪下的整座城市。
One such find is the ancient Roman city of Neápolis, discovered off the coast of Tunisia.
其中之一便是在突尼斯近海发现的古罗马城市奈阿波利斯。
Believed to have been buried underwater by a tsunami in the fourth century AD, the ruins of Neápolis are almost 2，000 years old.
据悉，在公元4世纪，奈阿波利斯被一场海啸淹没，其废墟至今已有近2，000年的历史。
The remaining streets and buildings offer a window into a fascinating period in our history.
残存的街道和建筑为我们提供了一扇窗，让我们得以窥见我们历史中那段精彩时期。
However, we are only beginning to overcome the challenges of pressure, darkness and extreme cold at vast depths.
然而，在巨大的深度下，我们才刚开始克服压力、黑暗和极端寒冷的挑战。
Fragments of the past lying deep beneath the oceans are still waiting to be discovered.

The dark zones of the oceans may contain up to 90 per cent of the planet's fish.
海洋的黑暗区域里或许生存着多达地球上90%的鱼类。
In these waters, more than 200 metres deep, where light cannot reach, are extraordinary creatures that appear as if they are straight out of science fiction.
在200多米以下、阳光照不到的深水水域里，住着一些看起来就像是直接从科幻小说中走出来的奇异生物。
Imagine bone white coral 6，000 metres below the ocean's surface, growing at the rate of only one or two millimetres per year.
想象一下，在海平面下6，000米深处，骨白色的珊瑚每年仅以一到两毫米的速度缓慢生长着。

Ⅰ 阅读
Born in Wales in 1950, Martin Lockley was a pioneer in the study of the dinosaur tracks and footprints preserved in rocks around the world. His work helped his fellow paleontologists (古生物学家) understand what the footprints can tell us about dinosaurs and the world that they lived in.
The footprints and tracks left behind by dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals are called trace fossils (痕迹化石). They can offer clues to how quickly an animal walked or ran and even what their skin may have looked pared with the body fossils of bones and teeth, trace fossils contain evidence of the interactions that the animals had with their environment and can describe what the physical environment may have looked like. They offer a more reliable way to imagine the speed of a dinosaur than analyzing the bones.
Lockley's mother and father were nature lovers. Lockley loved to observe nature. His father inspired him to “just go out and observe and trust your observations”， which proved important in Lockley's launching his future career in dinosaur research. He took that advice with him to Gunnison, southwest of Denver, the United States. While North America is home to some of the largest number of fossil footprints in the world, Lockley's work with prints and his father's words took him far and wide. He explored fossil and track sites in China, South Korea, Spain and the United Kingdom.
In addition to finding the tracks, Lockley devoted time and energy to preserving these important parts of the fossil record. This includes guiding the politics needed to create UNESCO world heritage sites so that future generations wouldn't lose out on these precious relics of the past.
篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。Martin Lockley (马丁·洛克利)是研究世界各地岩石中保存的恐龙足迹的先驱。他的工作帮助他的古生物学家同行们了解了这些足迹能告诉我们的关于恐龙和它们生活的世界的信息。

2．What contributes to Lockley's beginning his career in dinosaur tracks
A．His family's tradition.
B．His father's encouragement.
C．His love for dinosaurs and their footprints.

解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“His father inspired him ... in dinosaur research.(他的父亲鼓励他‘走出去观察并相信你的观察结果’，这对洛克利开始他未来的恐龙研究事业很重要。)”可知，Lockley开启他的恐龙足迹研究事业是受到他父亲的鼓励。故选B。

解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段“In addition to ... precious relics of the past.(除了寻找足迹，洛克利还投入了时间和精力来保护化石记录中的这些重要部分。这包括指导创建联合国教科文组织世界遗产所需的政治工作，这样子孙后代就不会失去这些珍贵的历史遗迹。)”可知，Lockley除了从事自己的专业研究外，还致力于保护和推广恐龙足迹遗址。故选C。
4．Which can best describe Lockley's work
A．Dangerous. B．Time consuming.
C．Far reaching. D．Demanding.
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的“His work helped ... the world that they lived in.(他的工作帮助他的古生物学家同行们了解了这些足迹能告诉我们的关于恐龙和它们生活的世界的信息。)”以及最后一段“In addition to finding the tracks ... precious relics of the past.”可推知，Lockley的工作是影响深远的。故选C。

I was born and grew up in the north of Scotland, which was not far from the sea. When I was little, I enjoyed the seaside scenery very much. I often sat on the rock by the sea and watched the view of the sea. I was fond of playing with the sand on the beach and chased the waves with my old sister, Alastair.
Across the beach there was a tidal (潮汐的) island, which means that when the tide goes out, you can walk to it, but when the tide comes in again, you can't get to it. Mum and Dad never let us go there. They told us that it was dangerous. However, the tidal island was full of mystery to me. I said to myself. “There must be some fascinating scenery worth exploring. How I wish I had a chance to land on it！”
On a little cold day in October, while my parents were away for a friend's wedding, my sister was determined to take me to the beach near our house, where we would have a good time. I wanted to build sand castles.
When we arrived at the beach, the tide was out. We ran on the beach back and forth and enjoyed ourselves very much. With the help of my sister, I made several sand castles of different shapes. Feeling a little tired, I sat on the beach for a break. I saw the tidal island, which looked very nice in the autumn sunshine.
“Let's go to explore the tidal island, Alastair，” I said to my sister.
“That's a good idea. But Mum and Dad said we couldn't. Maybe we won't return safely！” Alastair said.
“Don't worry! We'll try to return before the tide comes in again.” I begged Alastair.
Finally she agreed. We returned home and brought some peanut butter sandwiches and a bottle of milk with us.注意：

Then we set off for the tidal island. We walked over the sand to the island and started to explore. There was an old ruined church and a few abandoned buildings full of mysteries. Seagulls were flying in the sky, wild flowers blooming by the roadside. On the other side of the island we enjoyed milk and sandwiches, throwing stones into the sea. After a bit, dark clouds covered the sun and it got windy. I said, “I'm cold and I want to go home.” We walked back over the island to the beach. But we couldn't find it! It wasn't there any more!
The tide came in and covered the beach and the water was too deep and cold for me. We were in a dangerous situation. Frightened, I couldn't help crying. “Calm down，” shouted Alastair. “Quick! We have to return before it's too late! Climb on my back quickly.” The water was up to her lap, but Alastair was very strong and struggled through the waves with me on her back. We managed to return to the land safely. Later, our parents learned what had happened to us. They were scared and criticized us. We promised not to risk ourselves again.
