26、Choose the best answer (根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案)
An island with beautiful beaches and clear blue water full of colorful fish... this is Socotra(索科特拉岛). It sounds nice,but it doesn’t sound very unusual, doesn’t it? Well, there is a lot more to Socotra than that. You can see things there that cannot be found anywhere else in the world.
Socotra is in the Indian Ocean, 250 kilometers east of Africa and 340 kilometers south of Yemen. The island separated (分离) from Africa six million years ago, and over that time it has developed its own special plant life. If you travel away from the beautiful beaches and up into the rocky mountains in the middle of the island, you may feel like you're going back in time.
Perhaps you will see the desert rose with its pretty pink flowers. The desert rose is a “bottle" tree. It stores water in its fat trunk. Like many of Socotra's plants, it has developed to survive in the island' s hot, dry weather.
One of the most unusual plants on Socotra is the "dragons’ blood "tree. It is shaped like an umbrella, with a lot of branches under a green top. The tree gets its name from the red sap(树液)that comes out when it is cut. This sap has been used for centuries as a medicine and to make red dye and paint.
Socotra isn't an easy place for tourists to visit. To get there, you need to fly from Yemen. There are only a few Hotels in its largest town, Hadibo, and the island doesn't have many good roads.

27、When you watch 3D movies or TV,you have to wear a special pair of glasses.The 3D glasses make the images from the screen look like they are there in the room with you.
Three-dimensional,or 3D,means having three dimensions(维度) : width,height and depth.3D technology(技术) is based on the way the human brain(大脑) and eyes work.Because thepupilsof a person's eyes are about 6.5era apart(分开),when we look at something,each eye sees it from a different angle(角度).Our eyes send the two images to our brain,and the brain puts them together.The small difference between the image from the right eye and the image from the left eye allows us to see depth.
When we view pictures and television in two dimensions,each eye gets the same information.That is because the image has no real depth,and there is only one of viewing it.So the goal of 3D technology is to get a different image into each of the viewer.It uses two film projectors.One projects a left eye image and the other projects a right image.The 3D glasses allow us to see a different image in each eye.
While watching 3D films,we feel that we are in the same environment as the things we're watching.However,it also has its disadvantages.The 3D glasses work by controlling the amount of light that reaches the eyes.It makes the screen look darker.What's more,people with eye problems may get headaches if they spend too much time watching 3D movies,because their brains need to work harder to "read" the images.
