The town of Bacoli outside Naples,Italy,was trying to build a children’s playground,but the kids would have to make do with their backyards because surveys uncovered a Roman villa(别墅) in the same place.
About 2,000 years ago,the villa sat high on a cliffside(悬崖边) and had a full view of the Gulf of Naples,with the islands of Ischia and Procida being easy to see in the distance.In fact,the archaeologists digging up the old house think it could have been where Pliny the Elder often stayed.
An author and naturalist,Pliny the Elder wrote the Naturalis Historia,which became a publishing model for the encyclopedia(百科全书) in our time.He was also a naval(海军的) officer of the early Roman Empire.Bacoli sits today where the city of Misenum was located,the place where the Roman navy kept their ships in the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Pliny the Elder passed away after breathing in the harmful smoke of Mount Vesuvius’ volcanic eruption,which he saw from his villa across the Gulf.He organized several ships to save people who were stuck in the town of Stabiae.Overweight and sick,he couldn’t escape the smoke clouds after arriving at Stabiae with a team to save the people there.
“It’s likely that the big,beautiful villa had a 360-degree view of the Gulf of Naples for important reasons to do with the army,” said Simona Formula,lead archaeologist of Naples’ Art Heritage Authority.“We believe that digging deeper might show us more rooms,and even the paintings on the walls.”
The archaeologists found that the walls were made of stone blocks and put together in a way that looked like a fisherman’s net.
Nowadays,the parts of the villa that were once higher up the cliff are only a few meters above the sea.The whole area is slowly going down into the sea because of earthquakes and volcanic activity over the years,and the place where boats for servicing the villa had parked is now underwater.
The villa is going to open in a few months as an open-air museum.
1.When was the Roman villa found?
A.When a naturalist visited a cliffside.
B.When archaeologists surveyed Bacoli.
C.When a kid was digging in his backyard.
D.When Bacoli was about to build a playground.
2.Which of the following can best describe Pliny the Elder?
A.Generous and confident.
B.Honest and hard-working.
C.Knowledgeable and brave.
D.Selfless and open-minded.
3.In ancient times,the villa might have been used as a place .
A.to hold meetings on wars
B.to watch the Gulf of Naples
C.for naval officers to live
D.for its owner to give parties
4.What can we learn about the villa from paragraph 7?
A.It is too ancient to recover.
B.It is of great cultural value.
C.It is under threat.
D.It has its environment polluted.
