Unit 1-Unit4 单元阅读过关 一、阅读理解。 A篇 For over 2,000 years, people around the world have told the story of Atlantis, a civilization lost under the sea. But where was Atlantis? Was it real? The earliest record of Atlantis was written by the philosopher Plato around 360 BC (公元前) . According to Plato, about 9,000 years before his time, there was an island in the Atlantic Ocean (大西洋) called Atlantis. The people of Atlantis made war on many lands around the Mediterranean until the people of Athens stopped them. After that, earthquakes and floods destroyed Atlantis, and in one day and night the island sank below the sea. From ancient times people have had different ideas about Plato’s story. Some think it was real history, and others think it was just fiction. Some say Plato may get the idea from a real disaster around 1500 BC. At this time, there was a huge volcanic eruption on the island of Thera in the Aegean Sea (爱琴海) . It destroyed the island and caused a tsunami that also destroyed the nearby island of Crete. Most experts now believe Plato made up the story to share his ideas. In his story, ancient Athens was a better place, while Atlantis was strong but greedy and proud. It was punished in the end. Even though Plato’s story probably isn’t true, explorers around the world continue to search under the sea for the lost city of Atlantis. And the story inspires art, poetry, music, books, movies, games and more. ( ) 1. How does the writer start the article? A. By telling stories. B. By giving examples. C. By asking questions. D.
