It is famous for its huge stone statues called moai. There are nearly 1,000 moai statues on the island. The largest one is about 10 metres tall and weighs over 80 tons. One of the greatest mysteries is how the statues were moved. The island is small and has very few trees. Without wood, how did the ancient people transport such heavy stones? Some believe they used ropes and a walking motion. Others think they used round logs as rollers. A few people even believe that aliens helped them! Another mystery is why the statues were built. Some researchers think the statues represent important ancestors. Others believe they were built to protect the island. Despite many studies, the mysteries of Easter Island remain unsolved. But that is what makes the island so fascinating to visitors from all over the world. ( )1. What is Easter Island also known as? A. Moai Island. B. Rapa Nui. C. Stone Island. D. Pacific Island. ( )2.

B    A Journey to Easter Island Last year, I had the chance to visit Easter Island. It was such a dream come true that I could hardly believe it. I had seen pictures of the moai statues, but seeing them in person was completely different. I hired a local guide to show me around. He shared many interesting stories about the statues. He told me that the statues were built by the Rapa Nui people over 1,000 years ago. He also said that the statues were made from a special type of stone found only on the island. What surprised me most was how the statues could have been moved. The guide explained one theory: the ancient people might have used a system of ropes and wooden sledges. Although I'm not sure if that is true, it was fascinating to learn about different possibilities. Visiting Easter Island was an unforgettable experience. It reminded me that our world is full of mysteries waiting to be explored. ( )6. How did the writer feel when he visited Easter Island? A. Disappointed. B. Surprised and excited. C. Bored. D.

By using trucks. ( )10. What lesson did the writer learn from the experience? A. Easter Island is too far to visit. B. The world is full of mysteries. C. All mysteries have been solved. D. Moai statues are not important. C    Why Do We Love Mysteries? Throughout history, humans have been fascinated by mysteries. From the moai statues of Easter Island to the Terracotta Warriors in China, we are drawn to unanswered questions. Why do we love mysteries so much? First, they challenge our thinking. When we try to solve a mystery, we use our imagination and logic. This mental exercise keeps our minds active and engaged. Second, mysteries connect us to the past. When we study ancient mysteries, we feel a connection to people who lived long ago. We wonder about their lives, their beliefs, and their challenges. This helps us understand our shared human experience. Third, mysteries inspire wonder. It is exciting to know that there is still so much we don't understand about our world. This sense of wonder encourages us to keep exploring and learning. Of course, some people believe that all mysteries will eventually be solved. But others think that some questions are meant to remain unanswered. Perhaps the true joy of a mystery is not finding the answer, but the journey of discovery itself. ( )11.
