Ⅰ 阅读理解
体裁:说明文 题材:自然 词数:278 难度:★★★ 建议用时:8分钟#1
【2025浙江金华期末】Do you want to see the Dead Sea? It is one of the
most amazing places on earth. But why is it called the Dead Sea? Can anything
live in it? Can people swim there? Let’s find out!
The Dead Sea is not really a sea—it’s a lake in the Middle East. It is the
lowest place on land, about 400 metres below sea level. Hot, dry desert
surrounds (包围) the lake.
刷能力

Because the weather is hot, water evaporates (蒸发) quickly. But the lake
doesn’t get enough new water. So the water level gets lower, and lots of salt is
left behind. The Dead Sea is saltier than the ocean!
Because it’s so salty, fish and other animals can’t live there. Only a few
bacteria (细菌) can. The salt also forms crystals (晶体) on the shore,
making it hard for animals to come close.
It’s so salty. Why do people go there? Actually, it is really safe for people.
You can even go swimming there if you want. Although it’s pretty hard to swim,
all that salt in the water makes it much easier for people to float.
Want to know more about it? Just explore it yourself!#7
