The Bermuda Triangle(百慕大三角)is in the Atlantic Ocean, near Florida in the USA. During the past 60 years, more than 1,000 seamen in ships and pilots in planes have lost their lives. It is known as “The Triangle of Death”for its strange seawater and sudden storms. What’s the strangest is the light of the seawater, which looks so bright that it can be seen even from an outer spaceship.
　　At 2:00p.m. on Dec. 5, 1945, five planes took off in fine weather from the airport of Florida, on a training task. Two hours later, the leader in the sky radioed that he was “completely lost”. Then there was silence. Another plane was sent to look for them and also disappeared.
　　One of the largest ship that had disappeared in the triangle was an American coal ship, 500meters long. The weather was good, and there were no messages for help before it was “gone”. No broken ships or dead bodies have been found so far.
　　No one is able to tell how all these accidents have happened. A group of Japanese scientists were there to see what it was really like in 1995, but nothing has been heard of them ever since.
What is the passage mainly about?

How many planes had lost in December 1945?

What does the underline word “radioed” mean?

Why was the leader in the plane lost?

What about the group of Japanese scientists who went to Bermuda?

The worst danger is a house on fire when people are asleep. Always be ready to leave through a window into the garden by making sure you can open it if necessary. If you should be on holiday in a tall building or hotel,make sure you know where the fire easape（太平梯） is . When you can’t find any way out,try to find pieces of cloth and make a rope to get out of a window to safety. If you smell burning in your home,get out right away. If you can’t breathe properly because of smoke on your way out, crawl（爬行） on your hands and knees because smoke rises and the air will be cleaner near the floor.Smoke is a killer and more people have died from breathing it in than actually being burnt.
Fire in a cinema,hall or public place often means people pushing to reach a door. Keep your head up with arms up in front of your chest（胸）.This protects your chest and gives you the best chance to breathe. Above all, don’t get frightened!
In a room filled with smoke ,you’d better crawl on the floor because__________.

Which of the following is NOT true?

There is not enough oil in the world now. As time goes by ,it becomes less and less ,so what are we going to do when it runs out? Perhaps we will go back to use horses ,carriages and bicycles .
In the Second World War ,some people didn＇t use gas made from petroleum （石油）in their cars .They made gas from wood and plants instead . The cars didn＇t go fast ,but they ran ,so this was better than nothing. However, in the future, we can＇t cut down all our trees to make gas; we need our trees for other things, too.
Besides different types of gas, we can also use electricity(电)to run our cars but first we must make the electricity ！Some countries have coal and they make electricity with that, but we might not always have coal, either. Other countries have big ,strong rivers and they can use the power of water to turn turbines(涡轮机) and make electricity more easily and cheaply.
We are also able to get power from the ocean tides. We put turbines into the mouth of the river .Then the tide comes in ,the water turns the turbines and then it goes out ,it turns them again.
Which of these ways will be used to run our cars in the future?
When might people have to go back to using horses and carriages?

How many ways are suggested to make electricity in the passage?
