11．The Sunken City
Egypt is famous for its giant pyramids rising in the desert，but some of the nation's treasures from the past are hidden underwater．It is on the ocean floor near Egypt's northern coast （33）that a long-lost city of more than 2，700years old lies．Now researchers are bringing its remains to the surface to share the sunken civilization with the world．
Clues to the Past
Some ancient texts describes a city called Heracleion，（34）which was located at the mouth of the Nile River and disappeared beneath the waves 1，200years ago．But for centuries，no one knew for sure if such （35）an unbelievable city ever really existed．Then in 2000，Scientist Frank Goddio and his team discovered the ruins of the city．Since then，to uncover the city，they have been busy removing layers of sand，which had kept many of its treasure well （36）preserved（preserve）．They've uncovered gold coins，jewelry，giant statues，ships and a sign．These items provide clues to help find out （37）what life was like in Heracleion．

4．China produces 58，000 tons of silk each year．Yet one of the most popular silk companies in the world is Jim Thompson，a brand based in Thailand．
   Thompson，a Delaware native，was trained to be an architect in the mid-1920s，but joined the United States army in the early 1940s in response to the rise of World War II． He was soon appointed to the Office of Strategic Services （ which eventually became the CIA） and traveled around the world，including Thailand，where he fell in love with the people and their country．
   There were few hotels that accommodated international travelers in the capital of Bangkok，and Thompson thought that with the rise of leisure travel，the Far East would make an appealing destination for Westerners． Upon his discharge from the military in 1946，he returned to Thailand to start his own silk business．
   At the time，silk was main y being produced in the northeast of Thailand，but due to the dullness of the collection process，silk production was on the decline． Thompson was determined to revive（振兴） the business，so in 1947，he took a variety of silk thread～back to New York City to see if the product would be marketable to foreign consumers． He received a positive response9 so the Jim Thompson Silk Company was founded in 1948．
   Jim Thompson is credited for reviving the silk industry．After the establishment of his company，silk costumes soon-appeared in Broadway plays and popular films such as Ben Hur，and Thai royalty，such as Her Majesty Queen Sirikit，began wearing silk often． Many also think his work contributed greatly to the Thai economy，since the silk industry continues to employ thousands of Thai citizens even today．
   Jim Thompson's success is no mystery．'However，his disappearance on March 26，1967 certainly is one． Thompson made a trip to Malaysia to visit friends and one day，ventured into the jungle on an afternoon walk． He was never seen again despite search parties sent out by the Royal Army Air Corps and British troops． Many have their own theories on his disappearance，but none have been completely confirmed．
