Atlantis, a beautiful and wealthy island, is supposed to exist over 11, 000 years ago. In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, it was a center for trade. Its people were very wealthy and powerful. The rulers of Atlantis controlled their people and land, and their power spread to Europe and Africa.

The weather was very good in Atlantis, and therefore people could grow food all year around. Many different kinds of vegetables, fruits and nuts grew there, and a lot of different animals lived on the island, including elephants.

Atlantis was the home of Poseidon, the Greek God of the Sea. Poseidon had ten sons, who became the first rulers of Atlantis. The island’s many hills, fields and rivers were divided between the ten brothers. The eldest son, Atlas, was the first king of Atlantis. He controlled the island’s central hill and its area nearby.

At the top of the central hill, a temple was built in memory of Atlas’s father, Poseidon. Inside the temple was a huge gold statue of Poseidon. The rulers of Atlantis discussed laws in the temple.

For centuries the people of Atlantis lived simple, honest and happy lives. However, over time they began to change. They enjoyed the power they had and wanted to have more of it. When the God Zeus saw how corrupt (腐敗) the people of Atlantis were, he was very angry and gathered the other gods together. At last the gods agreed with Zeus and decided to sink (下沉) the island. In one short day and a half, the island of Atlantis, its people and its memory were destroyed forever, swallowed (吞) up by the sea.

本文講述了亞特蘭蒂斯，一個美麗而富饒的島嶼。據(jù)說存在于11000多年前，它的人民非常富有和強大。亞特蘭蒂斯的天氣非常好，因此人們可以全年種植食物。亞特蘭蒂斯是希臘海神波塞冬的故鄉(xiāng)，波塞冬有十個兒子，島上的許多山丘、田野和河流被分給了十兄弟。長子阿特拉斯是亞特蘭蒂斯的第一位國王，亞特蘭蒂斯人過著簡單、誠實和幸福的生活，隨著時間的推移，他們享受自己擁有的權(quán)力，并希望擁有更多。當宙斯神看到腐敗的亞特蘭蒂斯人，他決定下沉島嶼。亞特蘭提斯島的人民和它的記憶永遠被毀。

【1】根據(jù)表格右邊“Atlantis, a beautiful and wealthy island, is supposed to exist over 11, 000 years ago”可知是對島嶼的介紹，故答案為introduction。

【2】根據(jù)文中“In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, it was a center for trade.”可知此處是“坐落于”，且是一般過去時，故答案為was/lay。

【3】under control表示“處于控制之下”；根據(jù)文中“The rulers of Atlantis controlled their people and land”可知此處是“under”，故答案為under。

【4】all year around=the whole year表示“整年”，結(jié)合“ and therefore people could grow food all year around. ”可知此處缺“whole”，故答案為whole。

【5】根據(jù)“Many different kinds of vegetables, fruits and nuts grew there, and a lot of different animals lived on the island, including elephants.”可知此處很富有，結(jié)合“was”可知此處缺形容詞，故答案為rich。

【6】share sth with sb表示“與……分享”；根據(jù)“The island’s many hills, fields and rivers were divided between the ten brothers.”可知此處是“分享”，結(jié)合全文是一般過去時，故答案為shared。

【7】分析句子可知此處缺動詞原形，結(jié)合“The eldest son, Atlas, was the first king of Atlantis. He controlled the island’s central hill and its area nearby.”可知此處是“控制”，故答案為rule/ control。

【8】remind sb of 表示“使……想起”；分析句子可知此處缺動詞不定式作目的狀語，根據(jù)“At the top of the central hill, a temple was built in memory of Atlas’s father, Poseidon.”可知此處是“使……想起”，故答案為remind。

【9】根據(jù)表格右邊內(nèi)容可知是“理由”，且右邊有兩點，所以此處用名詞復(fù)數(shù)，放句首，需大寫。故答案為Reasons。

【10】根據(jù)decide to do sth表示“決定做某事”，所以句中缺動詞原形。結(jié)合“God Zeus saw how corrupt (腐敗) the people of Atlantis were, he was very angry and gathered the other gods together.”可知是“懲罰”，故答案為punish。
