21、A group of scientists are hurrying to document ancient ruins on the US territory of Puero Rico. The scientists are working as fast as they can before rising sea levels destroy a large part of the island’s history.
Scientists hope to use the 3-D images they have taken to help identify which sites are most at-risk to natural disasters and other dangers. Falko Kuester, a scientist, said, “ A big part of what we’ re working on is to make the invisible visible and make sure it stays in our memory. ”
Scientists first explored a large stretch of land along Puerto Rico’s north coast. That area includes a ceremonial center used by the Taino Indians about 2,000 years ago. Isabel Rivera, an environmental archaeologist, said the scientists found what appears to be a large settlement just east of the ceremonial site.
The Tainos once lived on many islands in the Caribbean Sea. But after the arrival of Christopher Columbus and other Europeans, the indigenous ( native ) people were nearly all killed. Rivera said, “ Up to today, there is still a lot we don’t know about indigenous culture along our coasts. It’s not in our history books. We want to recover that information before it disappears. ”
Some scientists say that warmer temperatures in the Caribbean increase the number and strength of storms. Scientists noted that large amounts of water caused by Hurricane Maria washed away part of the area they are studying.
Eric Lo, an engineer, flew to Puerto Rico in August 2017 to launch the project one month before Maria struck the island. Lo was surprised at what he saw when he returned to the US territory months later. He said, “ Pieces of land where I had stood and flown the drone didn’t exist anymore. They were underwater. ”
Scientists are now trying to find out how badly the hurricane and loss of land have affected the archaeological site they are studying. Scientists are using 3-D models based on drone images to measure areas and explore other details.
【1】What can scientists most probably see by applying the 3-D images?
A.The sites most likely to disappear quickly.
B.The remaining territory of Puero Rico.
C.The sites staying in memory.
D.The history destroyed by rising sea levels.
【2】What do we know about the Tainos from the text?
A.They were all killed by Christopher Columbus.
B.They settled in the center of Puero Rico.
C.They took advantage of a ceremonial site.
D.They didn’t experience hurricanes.
【3】What can we infer from Eric’s words?
A.Archaeological digging caused the loss of land.
B.His engineering work is valueless.
C.Storms made severe damage to the sites.
D.Global warming is the cause to all the losses.
【4】Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A.How to win over nature
B.Secrets of a heritage site
C.Impacts of climate change
D.A race to document heritage
