24、

Have you ever been to the Dead Sea, one of the most famous natural wonders in the world? Have you ever considered why it is called Dead Sea? Does it hold life? Can people swim there? With all these questions in your mind, let’s know something about it!

The Dead Sea is actually a lake in the Middle East. At four hundred meters below sea level, it’s the lowest point on Earth. It lies between the borders of Jordan, Israel, and the West Bank. It’s about 80 kilometers long, 11 kilometers wide at its widest point, and 377 meters deep at its deepest. The lake is surrounded by hot, dry desert on all sides.

Since it’s in a hot desert, water evaporates (蒸发) faster than the lake is refilled. And the area is lower than all the land around, the water can never flow back out, it can only evaporate. And that’s what happens-water continually evaporates. In fact, so much water is evaporating from the Dead Sea, it often looks like there’s a cloud of fog hanging over the lake. Anyway, as the water evaporates, it leaves behind the salt and minerals (矿物质). The water in the Dead Sea is almost six times saltier than ocean water!

Because the Dead Sea is so salty, almost nothing can live there, except for bacteria and one type of algae. Any fish or freshwater animal that gets washed into the lake dies almost immediately. And the shores are covered in thick salt crystals (结晶), so animals can’t even live near the lake either. That’s why it’s called Dead Sea.

Since it’s so salty, why do people go there to cover themselves from head to toe with its mud? Actually, those minerals are supposed to be really good for your skin. No wonder lots of spas and health resorts have been built in the area. Though the water in the Dead Sea is so salty, it is totally safe for people. You can even go swimming there if you want, although it’s pretty hard to swim because all that salt makes it much easier to float! It’s really unbelievable.

Want to know more about it? Just explore it yourself!

【1】Why does the writer use four questions in the beginning?

A．To interest readers in natural wonders.

B．To lead into the topic of the Dead Sea.

C．To introduce the popularity of the Dead Sea.

D．To express worries about freshwater animals.

【2】What can you learn about the Dead Sea from the passage?

A．It’s near the Middle East.

B．It’s far from the desert.

C．It’s 80 kilometers wide.

D．It’s the lowest point on land.

【3】What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?

A．How the Dead Sea is formed.

B．How the Dead Sea gets so salty.

C．Why fish can’t live in the Dead Sea.

D．Why the Dead Sea is like a cloud of fog.

【4】What’s the structure of the passage?

A．

B．

C．

D．

All tried, but not everyone was successfully. Five balloons blew out due to pressure（压力）.Those who failed to m【4】 their names on the balloons were ruled out of the game. As a result, 25 engineers came to the next level. All the balloons carrying their names were collected and then put it into a room, here and there.

The engineers were told to p【5】 the balloon with his or her names on. All the 25 engineers began to search for the respective balloons in a rush.

29、   My father was an ill-humored man. I knew he loved me and his love was deep. He just didn't know how to______it.  

One evening we went out for a night in the town. We were sitting in an elegant restaurant that had a small but lively band. When it played a familiar waltz tune I decided to   invite   him for a dance.    

"Dad, you know I've never danced with you before. I begged you but you never wanted to. How about right now?"     

I waited for the______ refusal. But instead, he considered thoughtfully and then said, "Let's hit the floor and I'll   show you just what kind of moves an old guy like me can still make. “My father took me______his arms and I felt overcome by emotion.     

As we danced, I looked up at my father carefully but he______my eyes.  "Dad," I finally  whispered(低语) , tears in my eyes, "Why is it so hard for you to______me?" At last his eyes dropped to my face. "______I love you so much." he whispered back. I was struck dumb by his______. It wasn't what I had thought. But it was of course exactly what I needed to hear. I had always known that he loved me. I just hadn't understood that his vast emotion had   frightened     him and made him silent. "I love you too, Dad!" I whispered back softly. He stumbled (结结巴巴地说) over  the next few words: "I'm sorry that I'm not open. It's difficult for me, but just remember______I  love you."      

When the dance ended I excused myself to the ladies' room and during my absence______changed. When I came back, Dad sat in his chair with his body leaning forward, very pale. Everything was really too late. He was gone .   

That night all I saw was his leaning body and pale face. But it's a totally different scene that I   remember now. I remember him saying "I love you" and my saying it back. The three words ______on forever long after we are gone.
