Today, US divers are working to recover what may be the biggest shipwreck treasure ever.The Florida-based company Odyssey Marine Exploration announced that it had found the Gairsoppa, and cited official documents indicating the British ship was carrying some 219 tons of silver when it sank in 1941 in the North Atlantic f some 300 miles off the Irish coast.Valued then at£600,000, the silver today is worth about $ 210 million, which would make it history's largest recovery of precious metals lost at sea.“We've accomplished the first stage of this project — the location and identification of the target shipwreck — and now we're hard at work planning for the recovery stage，” Odyssey project manager Andrew Craig said.Under the terms of an agreement reached between Odyssey and the British government，the company will retain 80 percent of the silver it can recover from the wreck.The 412-foot Gairsoppa had been sailing from India back to Britain in February 1941 carrying a cargo of silver, iron and tea, when a storm hit. Running low on fuel, the ship was forced to change direction and headed for Galway，Ireland，the nearest port of safety.It never made it，sunk by a German torpedo in the contested waters of the North Atlantic. Of the 85 people on board，only one survived.The Gairsoppa came to rest nearly 15 ,400 feet below the surface, where for decades it was lost to the world. All previous efforts to locate the shipwreck failed.New photographs released by the Oddesy show clear details of the ship，including the hole blown open by the torpedo. The find highlights the influential role that modern technologies，such as global positioning systems and deepwater robots，have come to play in the business of finding shipwrecks.Odyssey president Mark Gordon said, "The majority of the world's ocean floor has not yet been explored. We know more about the surface of the moon than we know about the deepest parts of the oceans. It's exciting to be working at depths like these and to be among the pioneers of this unexplored frontier, ”26. What caused the ship to sink?A. A dangerous storm.B. A German attack.C. A loss of direction.D. An accidental explosion.27. Where was the ship headed when it sank?A. India.B. Ireland.C. The United States.D. Britain.28. Which of the following about the Gairsoppa is true?A. All the passengers aboard were killed.B. Some of its treasures have already been recovered.C. It is under more than 15,000 meters of water.D. It is officially owned by the British government.29. Why has it taken so many years to find the location of the ship?A. The required technology was not available before,B. People had completely forgotten the ship had been sunk.C. Search permission had previously been refused.D. Official ship records have only recently been discovered.30. What does Mark Gordon think of deep-sea exploration?A. It is more difficult than space exploration.B. It is a very expensive activity.C. It is still in its early stage.D. It can make explorers very richB.My wife Julie and I were out on the road that runs around where we live. Two dog walkers passed by and we heard one of them say, “Never see n that dog around here before.”We looked down the hill and saw an old black dog stumbling(蹒跚) painfully up the hill. We bent down, talked gently to the dog and patted it. I checked and there was a collar. There was a phone number on the collar, but no one answered.The dog was painfully thin. It didn’t have many teeth left and, well, it just seemed done.Julie ran home to get some of our dog’s food while I tried to encourage the dog to come along with me. Julie got home and back again when I was only half way there. So, we sat down on the sidewalk while our new friend made short work of the food.Eventually we got her home. We gave her a blanket, more food, kept her warm and wondered what to do next.After trying for many times we got a response from the number. A lady came around with a bunch of flowers for us. She explained that Tara had been her father’s dog. She was very old and should probably be put to sleep, but the lady just couldn’t bring herself to do it. So, Tara was safely returned home.Here is the truth of the story:Actually Julie and I were out that morning because I was leaving. She was trying to persuade me to come back, but I wasn’t hearing anything that made that sound likely.I was about to turn and go when an old, worn out dog walked between us and collapsed. Suddenly we had something more important than our problem to worry about. There was a creature in need right before us and we had to work together to help it.We did help it. And here am I writing the story in my own home, in my own family.In the song “Love Is Not a Fight” Warren Barfield talks about marriage. At one point he sings, “And if we try to leave, may God send angels to guard the door.”Sometimes angels come disguised (伪装) as dogs.31. Which of the following statements is true?A.
