A better question might be "Who doesn't love pizza?” Now, there is a place for all pizza lovers to gather: the newly-opened Museum of Pizza. It can be found in America’s pizza capital─New York City.‎ ‎"It's often the case that the simplest ideas are the best. And we wanted to use pizza’s special attractiveness to get people through the door and looking at art and hearing about history in a different way," said Alexandra Serio, chief content officer at Nameless Network, the group that came up with the Museum of Pizza idea, known as " MoPi" for short.‎ Located on the street level of Brooklyn’s William Vale Hotel, the museum is a large, one-floor space that houses all kinds of art, from huge photographs to large sculptures that attract visitors. It has drawn a lot of interest; more than 6,000 people came through the door when it opened last November.‎ Lydia Melendez, a self-described "pizza enthusiast", bought her ticket in April. For her，the experience was worth the wait. "I thought it was going to be kind of boring," she said. She imagined walking in and finding books on how to make pizza. But she was very pleased when her actual experience was different from what she had imagined.‎ While pizza may be the hook(吸引人的东西)that draws those interested to the museum, the focus of MoPi is to expose people to the fine art world. ‎ ‎4.

Navy，and have been doing so since 1960, when the Navy decided to study the underwater sonar(声呐) capabilities of dolphins to learn how to design better methods of detecting (发现) objects underwater. The Navy also realized that they could learn how to improve the speed of their boats and submarines by studying how dolphins are able to swim fast and dive deep.‎ The research ended up going much further than that. Dolphins have been trained to perform several tasks, including delivering equipment to underwater people, locating and getting lost objects back, and guarding boats and submarines. They have been trained to detect enemy swimmers，and this was used in both the Vietnam War and the Gulf War. The dolphins would swim around the boats and submarines, and use their natural sonar to tell their armed trainers when enemy swimmers were detected. They could even mark enemy swimmers with markers so their trainers could spot and understand them.‎ Dolphins even do underwater surveillance (监视) for the Navy, by holding cameras in their ‎ mouths. Dolphins have been used to detect and mark underwater mines as well. The dolphins are not injured during this process. These dolphins are true heroes that have been trained to lead lost divers to safety.‎ The Navy began their studies of dolphins in 1960, but the U.S. Navy Marine Mammal Program did not begin its first military project until 1965. The project was called SEALAB II, and a dolphin named Tuffy was trained to dive 200 feet below the surface of the ocean off the coast of La Jolla, California, to deliver mail and tools to people.‎ ‎8. What's the purpose of studying dolphins' swimming speed?‎ A. To make the submarines faster. B. To better understand them.‎ C. To catch them more easily. D. To study dolphins' sonar capabilities.‎ ‎9. Why were dolphins used in the Gulf War?‎ A. To deliver tools. B. To find enemy swimmers.‎ C. To attack enemies. D. To lead lost divers to safety.‎ ‎10. How do dolphins do underwater surveillance?‎ A. By marking enemy swimmers. ‎ B.By sending signals through sonar.‎ C. By recording what they see underwater. ‎ D. By using electrical equipment attached to their tails.‎ ‎11. What does the text mainly talk about?‎ A. Dolphins' service in the Navy B. Dolphins' underwater training.‎ C. The development of the Navy. D. The Navy's research on dolphins' habitat.‎ D Could the dangerous underwater volcano in the Caribbean cause a U. S. tsunami? ‎ Kick’em Jenny is a dangerous and active volcano sitting below the surface of the Caribbean Sea, and located off the coast of the island of Grenada, south of St. Lucia.‎ A team of scientists is exploring the darkest corners of a huge underwater volcano in the Caribbean in the hope of better understanding the mysteries of earthquakes and tsunamis, eventually saving lives. Robert Ballard，famous for discovering the Titanic about 12, 000 feet below the surface of the icy North Atlantic Ocean in 1985，set his sights on exploring Kick’em Jenny to study its eruption history and learn more about how underwater volcanoes can present a ‎ threat. Ballard said the Kick’em Jenny volcano has a history of explosive eruptions, which could have the potential to cause tsunamis, the effects from which could be felt as far away as the northeastern U. S.‎ According to the U. S. Geological Survey (USGS), the Kick'em Jenny volcano has erupted 12 times since 1939 with the most recent eruption in 2001. The conditions around the Kick'em Jenny volcano are so dangerous to humans that Ballard and his team relied on the remotely operated vehicle Hercules, a 5,000-pound submersible( 潜水器), to be their eyes and ears inside the volcano. As Hercules moved downwards into the volcano, Ballard and his team watched the submersible's live cameras from a control room aboard the ship Nautilus. After hours of searching, the team made a surprising discovery: life.‎ ‎"It means that in places where we thought there was very little life existing on our planet, we've just opened up a whole other area where life seems to be dynamic," Ballard said. " A lot of the deep sea is sort of like something that you know you can think of as a desert. We just found an oasis (绿洲) in that desert."‎ On its journey, Hercules took pictures of its surroundings, made maps and collected samples, including organisms(生物) living inside the volcano and even reaching inside the volcano to gather materials. Such discoveries on Ballard's trip could allow scientists to better understand the threats by underwater volcanic eruptions.‎ ‎12. Why did Kick'em Jenny catch the attention of some scientists?‎ A. It is located off the coast of the island of Grenada.‎ B. It is usually thought to be strange and mysterious.‎ C. It caused a big tsunami ten years ago. D. It is a dangerous and active volcano.‎ ‎13. What can we know about Kick'em Jenny?‎ A. It is unlikely to erupt in a few years. B. It has been in peace since 1939. ‎ C. It will do great damage once it erupts. D. It is threatening the whole U. S. ‎ ‎14. What does the underlined word " dynamic" mean?‎ A. Colorful. B. Unknown. C. Active. D. Poor ‎15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?‎ A. Hercules is regarded as the most advanced equipment.‎ B. The discovered organisms are the most unusual species.‎ C. It is surprising for scientists to find an oasis in the desert.‎ D. Hercules plays a key role in studying the underwater volcano II.完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ I find it interesting sometimes that even the most ordinary incidents can have an impact on our consciousness.‎ My wife, daughter, and 1 moved into our new home nine years ago and we 16 a lot of time and energy in the yard getting it looking like it does today.
