The Three Gorges (三峡) Dam, the largest dam in the world, is also the largest engineering project on the face of the earth. It aims to make the mother of all floods, the Changjiang River, into a tame river and it will be the largest power source for much of eastern and central China. It will create a huge, deep-water lake, and make it possible for 10 000 ton ocean-going ships to sail 1 500 miles inland from the Pacific to the city of Chongqing with its 30 million people, making it the world's largest river port.

Construction has already started. The dam will be about 6 860 feet long and 611 feet high, at a spot called Sandouping near Yichang.

After many years of investigation (调研) experts have drawn a conclusion that this grand project will do a great deal of good. The most important thing is flood control. By building a dam instead of new coal plants to meet its growing demand for electricity, China will give off much less poisonous gases into the air.

However, some scientists don't agree to the project. They say that Chongqing and dozens of other cities along the river will put much waste into the reservoir (水库) which can do harm to people, fish and other living thing that depend on the river. Sedimentation (沉积) and damage of a breach(决口)are problems, too.

The Three Gorges Dam could be considered, when it is finished in 2009, a new eighth wonder of the world as to the size alone.

1．Which is not the purpose to build such a huge dam?

A. To make electricity.

B. To prevent floods.

C. To improve navigation (运输).

D. To make it a wonder.

2．Where does the dam lie?

A. Near Chongqing.

B. Near Yichang.

C. In the Three Gorges.

D. In Wuhan.

3．Some scientists fear that ________.

A. when the dam is built, the balance of nature may be destroyed

B. sedimentation may occur

C. a breach may cause millions of people to die or to be homeless

D. electricity will not be as much as expected

4．According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT right?

A. When finished, the dam will be one of the main bases of power source of China.

B. People have different ideas about the setting up of the dam.

C. It will take many years to build the dam because people want to see whether it will be safe and strong enough.

D. Chongqing will become the largest river port in the world when the dam is finished.

The 41 of the ship that had so 42 arrived on the scene in time to save their lives was Ellen. What had brought her to the exact spot through the 43 and the pathless sea?

“I was forced by the wind,” he said long afterwards, “to 45 my course (航道). Just as I did it, a small 46 flew across the ship once or twice and then 47 at my face.

Early in the 16th century men were trying to reach Asia by traveling west from Europe. In order to find Asia they had to find a way past South America. The man who finally found the way from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific was Ferdinand Magellan (麦哲伦). Magellan sailed from Seville in August, 1519 with five ships and about 280 men. Fourteen months later, after spending the cold winter on the coast of Patagonia, he discovered the channel which is now called Magellan Strait(海峡). In November, 1520, after many months of dangers from rocks and storms, the three remaining ships entered the ocean on the other side of South America. They then continued, hoping to reach Asia. But they did not see any land until they reached the islands off the coast of Asia. Before they arrived at these islands, later known as the Philippines (菲律宾), men were dying of starvation (饥饿). While they were staying in the Philippines, Magellan was killed in battle. The remaining officers then had to get back to Spain. They decided to sail round Africa. After many difficulties, one ship with eighteen men sailed into Seville three years after leaving. They were all that remained of Magellan’s expedition. However, their achievement was great. They were the first men to sail round the world.
