Question

【题目】 Captain (船长) Nemo invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island. I asked him why he was interested in Crespo Island. “I thought you liked the sea better than the land.”

“I do,” replied the captain. “But these forests are under the sea.”

After going through a door, we were about ten metres under the water. The light from the sun reached us. Everything looked very colourful. We were going deeper and deeper. At 100 metres deep, we could still see quite well, and Captain Nemo stopped and pointed to some dark shapes. This was the forest. The “trees” in the forest were giant seaweed, and all their “branches” were vertical (垂直的). We could not stop looking at them. Fish swam around the branches like birds in a forest.

Suddenly, I saw a large sea spider about a metre tall. It was going to attack me. Captain Nemo’s man killed it with his gun, but it reminded me that the sea could be as dangerous as it was beautiful. When we reached 150 metres, it was dark. The sun’s light could not reach this depth (深度). We turned on our lights. We could see about 20 metres around us. Finally, we found Crespo Island—where a steep rock wall rose in front of us.

We could go no further, so we walked back toward the Nautilus. Suddenly, Captain Nemo stopped and shot an animal with his gun, it was a beautiful and rare sea otter. At last, we could see the Nautilus. Several large sharks swam over us. Luckily, they didn’t see us. We re-entered the Nautilus safely. I was tired but amazed by what I had seen.

【解析】

作者及其朋友在船长Nemo的带领下游览了海底森林，文章详细描述了他们激动人心的经历。

【1】细节理解题。根据“The 'trees' in the forest were giant seaweed”可知，“树木”指的是巨型海藻。故选B。

【2】细节理解题。根据“When we reached 150 metres, it was dark. The sun's light could not reach this depth (深度). We turned on our lights. We could see about 20 metres around us.”可知，到达150米的深度后漆黑一片，他们打开自己的灯才看到周围大概20米内的东西。故选C。

【3】细节理解题。这篇文章按照时间顺序来写，找到与选项对应的内容并按照出现的先后顺序排序即可。根据首段的“Captain (船长) Nemo invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island.”可知，船长Nemo邀请作者及其朋友到森林里打猎；根据第三段的“At 100 metres deep, we could still see quite well, and Captain Nemo stopped and pointed to some dark shapes.”可知，在100米的深度船长停了下来；根据第四段的“Suddenly, I saw a large sea spider about a metre tall. It was going to attack me. Captain Nemo’s man killed it with his gun”可知，船长杀死了一只要攻击作者的大海蜘蛛；根据第四段的“Finally, we found Crespo Island”可知，他们最后发现了Crespo岛；根据第五段的“We could go no further, so we walked back toward the Nautilus.”可知，他们无法继续前进，所以往回走向Nautilus。故选D。
