Tales of the unexplained
人类科技发展到今天，早已能够上天下海。那么人类是否已无所不能了呢？还是让我们先去看一看百慕大三角再下结论吧！
We like to consider ourselves the superior race，and we are.It's
true that we are getting to know more and more，and we actually
live in “the information age”．Our human vanity (虚荣心) makes
us believe that we really have to know everything！
Surprisingly，we do not have this ability.The question “What
is happening in the Bermuda Triangle？”is the very proof (证据)．
Where is the Bermuda Triangle located？The mysterious
triangle is believed to be situated between Florida，Bermuda and Puerto Rico，where
too many unusual events have happened.
On December the 5th 1945，five U．S. military planes took off from Florida on a
clear day only to disappear over Bermuda.Furthermore，some other disappearances
took place：in 1947，an American C54 plane simply disappeared at 100 miles from

一、知识复习
（一）词汇部分
1.【原句再现】Police in America have stepped up their search for a fifteen-year-old boy who went
missing two days ago in Dover, New Hampshire. (P2)
【知识要点】search的用法
【点拨拓展】固定短语in search of表示目的，在句中做目的状语，search前不可以加冠词，search后只与介词of搭配。但名词search后面换成介词for，search前面则根据具体情况用冠词和物主代词修饰，这时的search作为名词可以在句子中做主语、宾语。
search后面通常接人、物或地点表示搜身或搜查某地；search for后面接人或物表示寻找这个人或物，同于look for sb/sth，在目的状语的位置上可以与介词短语in search of互换使用，如上面诊断练习第①题；也可以将它们组合起来用search A for B,意思为搜查A为了寻找B。
【诊断练习】在空格处填入所缺单词。
①The boys went in ______ search of
something to eat.
②That afternoon there was ______ search for
the missing girl Sophia. In ______ search
for the girl, the police found more about
her.
③I‟ve ______ all my drawers, but my
notebook is still missing. ④The police ______ the prisoner to see if he
