Around 132 years later in January, the bottle was found on the Australian coast, making it the oldest-known message in a bottle in the world.The bottle was thrown into the water to know, about ocean waves(海浪). Between 1864 and 1933, German sailors threw thousands of bottles into the sea. About 663 of those messages were found later.But throwing messages in bottles into the ocean is not just for scientists. People send out such messages for many reasons. Some people write information about themselves in the hopes of finding a pen pal. Others write down secrets, hoping that the waves will wash them away. And still other people just write down some jokes, songs or anything else they think might be fun. There are even online messages in bottles. People can send the messages through WeChat or QQ.The reasons mad ways might be different, but the goal is always the same: to reach out and try to connect with someone. This kind of shared feeling might be why this tradition has remained popular for so long. In 1988, the British band The Police wrote a song called Message in A Bottle that describes this feeling.As the songs lyrics say, we are a hundred billion castaways(被抛弃者) looking for a home. When will you feel relieved (释然的)? A hundred billion bottles washed up on the shore. Seems Im not alone at being alone.（1）In 1886, the German captain used the bottle with a message_. A . to do scientific researchB . to send messages to AustraliansC . to get help from ships in the oceanD . to keep in touch with scientists（2）The third paragraph mainly tells us the _of throwing messages in bottles. A . reasonsB . feelingsC . historyD . importance（3）The underlined words this feeling in Paragraph 4 refer to_. A . the wish of keeping a secretB . the pleasure of playing jokesC . the pleasure of listening to the songD . the wish of connecting with someone（4）The best title of this passage can be_. A . A Gift from Ocean.B . Message Online.C . A Bottle of Secret.D . Message in Bottles.20. （8分）阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在每小题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。DToday, well visit a place of strange and silent beauty. As beautiful as this place is, its name provides evidence of very real danger. We are exploring Death Valley National Park (死亡谷国家公园).Death Valley is a huge place. It extends more than 225 kilometers across the southern part of California into the neighboring state (州) of Nevada. Death Valley is a land of beautiful yet dangerous desert and mountains. There are mountains that reach more than 3,000 meters into the sky.Much of Death Valley is flat and dry. In some areas the ground is nothing but salt. Nothing is able to grow in this salty ground. However, it would be wrong to think that nothing lives in Death Valley. The valley is full of life. Wildflowers grow very quickly after even a small amount of rain. Several kinds of birds live in Death Valley, as do mammals and reptiles. Many different snakes live there too.The area got its name in 1849. That was the year after gold was discovered (发现) in California. Thousands of people from around the country traveled to the gold mining areas of the state. They were in a hurry to get there before other people did. One group trying to reach California decided to take a path called the Old Spanish Trail. By December they had reached Death Valley. But there was a lack (短缺) of water and there were too few plants for their work animals to eat. The people could not find a pass through the tall mountains to the west of the valley. Slowly, they began to suffer from a lack of food. To survive, they killed their work animals for food and began to walk out of the valley. As they left, a woman in the group looked back and said, Goodbye, death valley. The name has never been changed.Death Valley became a national park in 1994. More than one million people visit the park each year. （1）The text is most probably from _.A . a story bookB . a radio programC . a science magazineD . a news report（2）Paragraph 3 mainly tells us _.A . Death Valley is full of lifeB . much of Death Valley is flat and dryC . nothing can grow in this salty groundD . different animals live in Death Valley（3）Why did the woman call the area death valley?A . Because the group of people didnt know how to walk out of the valley.B . Because lots of people died here.C . Because the woman was left behind and would die here.D . Because the group of people lived a hard life here and their work animals were killed.（4）Which of the following statements is NOT right?A . Death Valley extends from California to Nev ada.B . Wildlife can live in Death Valley.C . Gold was discovered in California after Death Valley got its name.D . Death Valley didnt become a national park until 1994.21. （8分）阅读下列内容，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。DNow we have comfortable buses in New York. I would like to describe to you how comfortable they are.

That is not the only surprising thing on the bus一一they also have three different video channels, and seventy TV games for killing time when you are on the bus.In a word, we want to be more comfortable when we are on a trip.
