Deep inside a mountain near Sweet water in East Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea. It is listed by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world’s largest underground lake. The Lost Sea is part of an extensive(广阔的)and historic cave system called Graighead Caverns. The Caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation. The cave expands(扩展)into a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain. One mile from entrance is a room called the “Council Room” in which many Indian artistic facts have been found. For many years it had been considered that there was a large underground lake somewhere in the cave, but it was not discovered until 1905. In that year, a l3-year-old boy named Ben Sands crawled(爬行)in-to a small opening three hundred feet underground, and he found himself in a large cave half filled with water. Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out in glass-bottomed boats. More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end of the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent(范围) of it is still unknown.1、The Lost Sea is completely different from any others because it is ________.2、The Graighead Caverns have been known ________.3、Who discovered the Lost Sea in recent times?4、What was found in “The Council Room”?5、It can be inferred from the passage that the Graighead Caverns presently serve as ________.

Nowadays, people have a heated discussion on whether the pressure on international sports players kills the essence of sport-the pursuit of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. The individual representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself; he has to think only about winning. He is responsible for the entire nation’s hopes, dreams and reputation. A good example is the football World Cup. Footballs the world’s most important sport. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention Argentina to someone and the chances are that he’ll think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup put Argentina on the map. Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money travelling to Argentina, where the finals were played. So, am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport? Certainly not! Do the Argentinians really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others? Not really, but it’s nice to know that you won and that in one way at least your country is the best. 1、According to the passage, if a sportsman only thinks about winning, he will ________.2、The main idea of the first paragraph is that ________.3、What does the speaker mean when he says “In a sense, winning the World Cup put Argentina on the map”?4、The word “irrational” in the third paragraph means ________.5、What does the underlined word “summit” mean?

A Lost RingAbout once a month I have to go to Bedford for my work. One day I went into a hotel there to have something to eat. The waiter took my coat and put it in a small room. About an hour later I was ready to go. The waiter brought me my coat. Something fell out of the pocket onto the floor. It was a small white box. I took a close look at the coat. “Oh, you’ve brought someone else’s coat,” I said to the waiter. “It looks very much like mine, but it is quite new, and this isn’t my box, either.”“Oh, then I suppose someone has taken your coat and left his,” said the waiter. “This kind of thing happens sometimes.” I opened the box. There was a beautiful gold ring in it. The waiter and I decided to go to the police station. “Has anyone lost a ring?” I asked at the station. “Yes,” said a policeman. “A young man who came in this morning lost a ring; he lost it in London. “He telephoned the young man. A few minutes later, the man arrived. “Yes, this is my ring,” he said. “How can I thank you, sir? You see, I paid a lot of money for this ring and then I lost it on the train!”After I told him the price of the coat, he said, “You haven’t been on the train. I haven’t been in the hotel, so how did my ring get in the coat?”“Did anyone sit or stand next to you on the train?” asked the policeman. “Yes,” said the young man. “But I don’t remember his face.”“You may remember this coat,” said the policeman. “Was it like this one?”“Yes, it was,” said the young man. “But my friend here isn’t the thief.”The policeman laughed. “No,” he said. “The thief on the train stole your ring, and like our friend here, he went into the hotel to get some food. Only he didn’t take the right coat away with him.”1、Why did the waiter pick up the wrong clothes?2、Picking up the wrong clothes happens in hotels ________.3、Who is the real owner of the coat?4、Who lost the gold ring?5、What kind of person is the author?
