The Blue Eye f the Sahara is a gelgical frmatin in the Sahara Desert that resembles an enrmus bullseye. The frmatin stretches acrss a 40-kilmeter-wide regin f the desert in the natin f Mauritania.
Fr centuries, nly a few lcal tribes knew abut the frmatin. It was first phtgraphed in the 1960s by astrnauts
wh used it as a landmark t track the prgress f their landing. Later, the Landsat satellite tk additinal images and prvided infrmatin abut the size, height, and extent f the frmatin.
Gelgists riginally believed that Eye f the Sahara was created when an bject frm uter space crashed int the surface. Hwever, lengthy studies f the rcks inside the structure shw that its rigins are entirely Earth-based, as the frmatin cntains rcks that are at least 100 millin years ld; sme date back t well befre the appearance f life n Earth.
Millins f years ag, vlcanic activity frm deep beneath Earth's surface lifted the
entire landscape arund the Eye. After the vlcanism died dwn, wind and water ersin( 侵蚀) began t eat away at the layers f rck. After years f ersin, the regin began t settle dwn and fall in n itself, creating the rughly circular "eye" feature.
The Eye f the Sahara attracts bth turists and gelgists t study the unique gelgical feature in persn. Hwever, because the Eye is lcated in a remte regin f the desert with very little water r rainfall, it is nt under much threat frm humans.
That leaves the Eye at the mercy f nature. The nging effects f ersin threaten the landscape, just as they d ther places n the planet. Desert winds may well bring mre dunes(沙丘) t the regin, particularly as climate change causes increased desertificatin in the area. It's quite pssible that, in the distant future, the Eye f the Sahara will be buried under sand and dust. Future travelers may find nly a windswept desert burying ne f the mst striking gelgical features n the planet.
What d we knw abut the Blue Eye f the Sahara?
It has been knwn fr centuries.
It was created by bjects frm uter space.
It was useful t astrnauts in the 1960s.
It was first phtgraphed by a satellite.
Which factr directly cntributes t its circular “eye” feature?
A. Vlcanic activity.B. Climate change.
C. Wind and water ersin.D. Desertificatin.
Which best describe the future f the Eye f the Sahara accrding t the text?
A. Desirable.B. Secure.C. Uncertain.D. Wrrying.
What is the text mainly abut?
What is the Eye f the Sahara?
Why is the Eye f the Sahara in Danger?
Why Is the Eye f the Sahara Ppular?
Hw Can We Save the Eye f the Sahara?

Hw many friends d yu have? Nt cunting the hundreds n Facebk r the names gathering dust in yur address bk. But real friends, the nes cast in stne. The kind wh wuld lend yu $100 withut asking why, r put yu up if yu were kicked ut f yur huse.
Anthrplgist Prf Rbin Dunbar feels he can put a number n it: five. N matter hw much f a scial butterfly yu are, yu can cunt yur real pals n ne hand, he says. T that he says yu can add an ideal number f 15 “gd friends”, the kind f peple yu
wuld see in a grup and wuld jin fr a drink if yu bumped int them in the pub, and up t 150 “meaningful cntacts”.

Nte that this is t turn an acquaintance int a friend, nt ne f the clse friends that makes up yur inner circle f five—t d that, yu’d have t devte 90 hurs, accrding t a 2018 University f Kansas study.
Accrding t the experts, the pandemic years have changed the number and nature f ur friendship. It gave peple mre grunds fr disagreement: ver adherence( 遵 守 ) t scial-distancing rules, fr example. Plenty f peple lst relatinships in the cracks. “We are always n the utlk fr new and better friends, but lckdwn has had a big effect in making peple reevaluate,” says Dunbar. “Perhaps they’ve decided the time has cme t part with sme and therefre there’s an empty space t fill.”
The frecast fr British friendship was already glmy befre the pandemic. Three millin peple said they feel lnely “ften r always”, accrding t the Gvernment’s 2019 cmmunity life survey. But the average British adult lst fur friends ver the curse f the pandemic, accrding t the pll.
What des the underlined expressin “cast in stne” prbably mean?
A. Firmly cnnected.B. Interested in stnes.
C. Living nearby.D. Extremely generus.
Hw lng des it take t frm clse friendships accrding t the frmula?
34 hurs f ne-n-ne time.
90 hurs f interactin.
Six mnths f ne-n-ne time.
Three hurs and fur minutes f interactin. 34.Which f the fllwing might Prf Dunbar agree with?
The mre sciable yu are, the mre real friends yu can make.
It’s much easier fr peple t make friends nline.
The mre friends yu make, the happier yur life will be.
There is a limit t the number f real friends in yur life.
What might peple argue abut during the pandemic?
Whether t part with sme ld friends.
Hw t make better friends.
Whether t bey scial distancing.
Hw t limit the number f friends.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。Yesterday as I flipped thrugh the stack f mstly junk mail that I had fetched frm the mailbx, an advertisement fr a magazine caught my attentin. The cver featured a clr phtgraph f a ball f yarn(纱线) with knitting(编织) needles artistically inserted thrugh the middle. Memries f Mrs. Hudsn, my sixth-grade teacher, came t mind. She was tall,
with a kind face, and wre little makeup.
Mrs. Hudsn taught language arts when I was in sixth grade. Mrs. Hudsn als taught knitting lessns in her hme t select sixth-grade students every ther Saturday frm fall thrugh winter. I was a shy girl back then, cnsidered by thers as weird.
It tk the mst pitiful expressin I culd find t cnvince my parents t let me take the knitting lessns. It then required pleading and prmises f extra chres t get them t agree t drp me ff and pick me up every ther Saturday. Thankfully, Mrs. Hudsn nly lived seven miles away, and she ffered the knitting lessns fr free. She even supplied knitting needles and yarn.
The huse was quiet, tidy, and welcming as Mrs. Hudsn guided me t the rm, which was already filled with girls lking as shy and nervus as I was. Yet gradually we gt t knw each ther and relaxed. We wuld grab a snack and drink while everyne arrived and settled fr the lessn. I drank iced tea fr the first time at ne f thse Saturday knitting lessns. Trips t Mrs. Hudsn’s huse were like a treat t me back at that time. I actually made sme friends wh shared the same hbby.
I dn't recall fficially thanking Mrs. Hudsn fr thse Saturdays, and I regretted that. I typed her name and the twn where she lived int Ggle. Within minutes a cuple f articles and multiple bituaries( 讣告) ppped up. There was a recent phtgraph inserted int ne f the bituaries, and as I gazed int thse eyes, there was n questin that it was Mrs. Hudsn. She had passed away nly eight years befre at the age f 99. I tk dwn the address and decided t pay a visit.
As I std in frnt f the dr, I gathered my curage and kncked.
