【题目】 A growing number of Chinese tourists are helping to save a dying town,after a like-known tourist attraction was featured on a number of Chinese travel blogs.
The residents of Sea Lake,a town of just 600 people,barely see travelers stop at their gas station while driving by,but the sudden influx of Chinese tourists is helping keep the town's economy alive.
The tourists come to see Lake Tyrrel—a shallow,salt crusted and often dry lake just out of town. According to a local teacher,Rachel Pearce,the extremely beautiful nightscape combined with the mysterious appearance of stars reflected on the salt lake gives people the impression of walking among the stars. Besides,the town is so far away that no light pollution ruins the particularly attractive views,and as it is situated in a barren(寸草不生的),dry part of the country,there are rarely any clouds to spoil the night sky.
The attraction's growing sought-after status has resulted in the town's motel rooms being full almost every night,and while local famers are suffering in a two-year drought,tourism is keeping the town's agricultural-based economy stable.
Despite the popularity of the town and its attraction,locals are still confused as to why their little town deserves so much attention. Sea Lake's population has fallen from around 1,200a decade ago to 600 today. “We're still unsure why Lake Tyrrel is such a big,big tourist attraction,”one local says. “It's quite a shock. ”
【1】Which of the following best explains "influx" underlined in paragraph 2?
A. Assistance.B. Adventure.
C. Arrival.D. Advertisement.
【2】Which of the following together make Lake Tyrrel pretty impressive?
A. Population,stars,clouds,cleanness and weather.
B. Nightscape,stars,salt,remoteness and clear sky.
C. Population,darkness,salt,remoteness and clear sky.
D. Nightscape,darkness,clouds,cleanness and weather.
【3】Which column of a magazine is this text most likely from?

【题目】阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
What makes the sea tum red and causes thousands of fish to die?As far back as anyone could remember,the blame was placed on the "red tides. " In 1947,scientists finally connected the red tides with a microscopic sea organism(有机体)【1】(call)the dinoflagellate.
The dinoflagellate is so tiny 【2】 6,000 of these organisms may be contained in 【3】 single drop of water. It stands on the borderline between plant and animal in its clasification. it produces its own food,as plants do. But it moves 【4】(free)and eats other organisms,as animals do.
Dinoflagellates are normally only one of the many kinds of organisms found in plankton. Plankton is the name given to all very small 【5】(form)of sea life. However,when the air and water 【6】(be)calm and warm,dinoflagellates multiply with 【7】(amaze)sped. The surface of the water appears 【8】(cover)with a red carpet.
The dinoflagellates give off a poison. Many fish die. Their bodies are washed up on the beach. Beaches are not fit 【9】 any use. Fish that are not killed may become 【10】(poison)to animals or people who eat them. Commercial fishing comes to a stop.
As dinoflagellates consume all the food and oxygen in an area,they die. After a time,the sea returns to normal. But when conditions are right,the red tide comes again.
