5、伊朗发现了诺亚方 舟？
考古学家在伊朗厄尔布尔士山 脉中发现的怀疑是诺亚方舟遗 骸的岩石。
今年7月，科学家在伊朗的厄尔布尔士山脉中发现了一块船形的巨型岩石，一些 基督教考古学家们猜测它可能是传说中的诺亚方舟的遗骸。许多人对此都表示怀疑。 一些圣经学者认为诺亚方舟应该在土耳其东部的阿拉拉特山脉附近，他们认为诺亚 是在6000年前到10000年前建造了诺亚方舟。对这个巨大岩层所拍摄的照片显示， 这个有着船头形状的露在地表的岩石就像一个被石化的木头，从山脊上长了出来。 科努克说：“我们把从这块巨石取下的样本切割成很多薄片以后，发现了木质细胞 结构。”科努克承认可能很难证明这块巨石就是诺亚方舟，但是他也很乐观的表示 这块巨石肯定是以前人们朝圣的一个重要地方。
新发现的 《犹大福音》 的残页
7、失踪1700多年《犹大 福音》的传奇之旅
在这本手抄本里，故事中描绘了犹 大不是我们先前所认为的叛徒，而是英 雄，他是应耶稣要求才出卖了他。它被 埋藏了数个世纪，在20世纪70年代后期 人们在埃及发现了它，当时只是一堆残 缺破损的草纸，它用古代埃及所使用的 哥普特文字抄写，大约抄于公元3世纪到 4世纪之间，从内容上看大约写于公元 180年左右。在1980年，一次抢劫案中 被人偷走被带出了埃及，后来在瑞士人 们又找到了它，学者们想把它买下来做 细致的研究，但当时手稿主人要价300万 美元，但没人买的起，于是这份手稿在 纽约州长岛花旗银行的保险箱躺了近二 十年，直到前几年，才由瑞士的梅塞纳马恩省斯古代艺术基金会取得，才最终 被修复、重组、翻译后公布于众。最后， 所有的书稿又被带回到了埃及，被存放 在了柯普特博物馆里。
2、冥王星被赶出9大行星 行列
今年8月，国际天文学联合会大会上冥王星被开除出了9大行星的行列，而被归入了 “矮行星”，目前发现了44颗矮行星。冥王星直径只有2300公里，比月球还要小，它 所处的轨道在海王星之外，属于太阳系外围的柯伊伯带，这个区域一直是太阳系小行 星和彗星诞生的地方。冥王星的出局也在国际上引发了很大争论。 太阳系新家谱： 一、行星：成员包括水星、金星、地球等8颗行星。定义：围绕太阳运转，自身引 力足以克服其刚体力而使天体呈圆球状，并且能够清除其轨道附近其他物体的天体。 二、矮行星：成员包括冥王星和谷神星等。定义：与行星同样具有足够的质量， 呈圆球状，但不能清除其轨道附近其他物体的天体。 三、太阳系小天体。定义：围绕太阳运转但不符合行星和矮行星条件的物体。

After a few weeks , the pelicans take their babies down to the shore. Soon the baby pelicans will learn to fly. Then the water in lake slowly starts to dry up. Without water, the fish die. The birds fly away in search of other food. Then, one day, the lake is gone. Without water, the flowers start to die. But first they drop their seeds for when the next rain comes. When the rain comes, this lake will fill up with water again. Then the fish and the birds will return, and this dry lake bed will be fullof life once more.22The river’s JourneyHave you ever seen a river?A river is a large stream of flowing water.This river is the Mississippi River.It flows through the United States.Look at this map of the United States.It shows where the Mississippi River begins and ends.Let’s follow the Mississippi River on its long journey.Where a river begins is called its source.The Mississippi River begins in a lake in Minnesota.It starts out as a small,clear stream.Other small streams flow into the Mississippi River.The rivergets bigger and faster.At the Falls of St.Anthony,the river flows through locks.Locks raise or lower the water,helping boats to travel on the river.The Mississippi River flows down to lower land.ItFlows more slowly over the flat land.It begins toWind back and forth .The flat land around the river is called its floodplain.The river slows near the end of its journey.It drops the mud and soil that it collected further upstream.The mud and soil form new land called a delta.The Mississippi Delta is very large.The end of a river is called its mouth.A river’s mouth e mpties into another body of water.The Mississippi River empties into the Gulf of Mexico.The river’s long journey has ended.23. The Rain Forest 热带雨林A tropical rain forest is like an apartment building. Just as an apartment building has many floors., a rain forest has many levels. Different creatures live at each level of the rain forest. The ground level is the forest floor. Leaves litter the ground. Many insects live here. Ants look for food under the leaves. Tapirs walk among the trees. They lift up the leaves looking for food. Armadillos scurry around. The next level is the understory. Tarantulas spin their webs to catch insects and birds. Anteaters use their long snouts to sniff out ants. Iguanas hunt for flies. Big snakes like boa constrictors wind around branches. Jaguars climb the lowest branches of the trees and wait for food. Sometimes they catch fish and crocodiles. The next level is the canopy. Macaws feast on fruit and berries. Sloths hang upside down, munching on leaves.Black spider monkeys swing on vines, chasing each other. The top of the rain forest is called the emergent level. Lots of birds live up here. The harpy eagle sits at the top of the tree and watches. It’s looking for a bird or monkey to eat.24. Soil 土壤What is soil? The land is covered with a layer of dirt. This dirt is called soil. Soil can be sandy. Soil can be rocky. Soil can be like clay. Do you know how soil is made? How is soil made? It takes a very long time for soil to be made. Soil is made from pieces of rock. The pieces of rock are mixed with animals and plants that have died and rotted. Some rocks lie on top of the ground. Rain falls on them. Snow and ice cover them. The wind blows them. After a long time, the water, the cold, and the wind help break the rocks into pieces. These pieces of rock then break into smal ler and smaller pieces. After thousands of years, the tiny pieces of rock become soil. Rocks get smaller and smaller over time. Plants and animal also help make soil. Fallen leaves and dead plants lie on the ground. When animal die, their bodies also lie on the ground. Hot sun shines on them. Cold rain falls on them. Snow and ice cover them. After a long time, the heat, the water, and the cold help make the leaves and bodies rot into the ground. The rotting leaves and bodies help make the soil rich with nutrients. When the soil is rich with nutrients, plants can grow there. Leaves and bodies rot into the ground. Who needs soil? Most plants need soil to live. Plants have roots that reach down into the soil. The roots spread out. The soil helps plants stand up. The roots reach down into the soil. Plants get some of their food and water from the soil. Their roots collect the food and water that help the plants grow. Without soil, most plants could notgrow. Plants need soil. Animals need soil to live, too. Some animals eat plants. Other animals eat the animal that eat plants. Without soil, most plants could not grow. Without plants, animals would have nothing to eat. Animals need soil . people need soil to live, too. We use the soil to grow plants that we can eat. We feed plants to animals that we can eat . Without soil, most plants could not grow. Without plants, animals would have nothing to eat. Without plants and animals, people would have nothing to eat. People need soil. Clay: stiff, sticky dirt; nutrients: food necessary for things to grow; rich: full of good things; roots: parts of a plant that grows under the ground; rot: break down into smaller pieces.。

It is located in South America and spans across several countries, including Brazil, Peru, Colombia, and Bolivia. The rainforest is home to an estimated 2.5 million species of plants, animals, insects, and fungi. It is oftenreferred to as the "lungs of the Earth" because it produces about 20% of the world's oxygen.The Amazon Rainforest is a vital ecosystem that provides numerous benefits to the planet. It plays a crucial role in regulating theEarth's climate by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. It also helps to maintain the water cycle and preserve biodiversity. However, the rainforest is facing numerous threats, including deforestation, climate change, and pollution.Deforestation is one of the biggest threats to the Amazon Rainforest. It is primarily caused by the clearing of land for agriculture, logging, and mining. This not only destroys the habitat of countless species but also contributes to global warming. The loss of forest cover also leads to soil erosion and reduces the amount of water stored in the soil, which affects local weather patterns.Climate change is another significant threat to the Amazon Rainforest. As global temperatures rise, the rainforest is experiencing more frequent and severe droughts. This has a devastating impact on the ecosystem, leading to the death of trees and a loss of biodiversity. The increased frequency of forest fires also contributes to the degradation of the rainforest.Pollution is also a concern for the Amazon Rainforest. The discharge of chemicals and waste from industries and agriculture into the rivers and streams can have harmful effects on the ecosystem. It can lead to the death of aquatic life and contaminate the soil, making it unsuitable for plant growth.Despite these threats, there are efforts being made to protect the Amazon Rainforest. Governments and environmental organizations are working together to implement policies that aim to reduce deforestation and promote sustainable development. Community-based conservation projects are also being established to involve local people in the protection of their natural heritage.9. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To describe the geographical location of the Amazon Rainforest.B. To discuss the benefits of the Amazon Rainforest.C. To highlight the threats facing the Amazon Rainforest.D. To propose solutions to protect the Amazon Rainforest.10. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a threat to the Amazon Rainforest?A. DeforestationB. Climate changeC. PollutionD. Overpopulation11. According to the passage, what is the role of the Amazon Rainforest in the Earth's climate?A. It is a source of energy.B. It is a source of water.C. It absorbs carbon dioxide and releases oxygen.D. It controls the weather patterns.12. Why is deforestation considered a major threat to the Amazon Rainforest?A. It reduces the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere.B. It disrupts the water cycle.C. It destroys the habitat of countless species.D. All of the above.Section 3: Writing (30 points)Write an essay on the following topic:The Importance of Protecting the Amazon Rainforest In your essay, you should:- State the importance of the Amazon Rainforest. - Discuss the threats it faces.- Propose possible solutions to protect it.Your essay should be at least 200 words long.。

该杂志成立于1888年，迄今已有超过一个世纪的历史。
在这篇文章中，我们将介绍该杂志的起源、发展和影响，以及它如何成为世界上最受欢迎的地理杂志之一。
美国国家地理杂志的创办人是吉尔伯特·格罗夫纳尔（Gilbert H. Grosvenor），他的目标是通过阅读和图像来向公众展示世界的美丽和奇迹。
作为一名旅行家和地理学家，格罗夫纳尔深深地了解地理的重要性和它对我们的生活的影响。
为了实现他的愿景，1888年1月，他创办了美国国家地理杂志。
在早期的几十年里，美国国家地理杂志主要以关于探险、地理发现和自然科学为主题的文章为特色。
杂志的撰稿人和摄影师经常进行艰苦的远征和探险，以获取最真实、最壮观的照片和报道。
这些图片往往让人惊叹，展示了地球上最遥远、最美丽的地方，吸引着读者的眼球。
随着时间的推移，美国国家地理杂志也逐渐开始关注地球上的环境问题和人类活动对自然的影响。
这将成为该杂志的一个重要特色。
它开始报道一系列的环境问题，如雨林砍伐、气候变化和野生动物保护。
通过这些报道，杂志努力引起人们对地球可持续发展的重视，并鼓励人们采取行动来保护我们的星球。
除了纸质杂志，美国国家地理还开设了一个相应的网站，并制作了一系列的纪录片和电视节目。
这使得美国国家地理成为一个多媒体的品牌，为人们提供了各种各样的方式来探索地球，无论是通过文字、图片还是视频。
美国国家地理杂志的影响力远远超过了美国的边界。
