第一节 (共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分)
A
Explore some ancient ruins as well as contemporary art at these underwater museums. Most of these can be seen by taking tours in glass-bottomed boats.
Baia Underwater Park, Italy
Most people know about Pompeii, the Roman city, but few know about Baia which was about three times the size of Pompeii. While Pompeii was covered in volcanic ash, Baia was abandoned in the 8th century and then hidden underwater. Today it can best be explored by divers. On clear summer days visitors can travel by glass- bottomed boat to see the ruins.
Museo Subacuático de Arte (MUSA), Mexico
This underwater contemporary art museum has over 500 permanent sculptures in the waters surrounding three cities in Mexico—Cancun, Isla Mujeres and Punta Nizuc. The goal of the museum is to show the interaction between art and science. All the artworks are made from special materials that will promote coral life and are fixed to the seabed. Visitors may see the art through glass bottomed boat tours and diving routes.
Museo Atlántico Lanzarote, Spain
Just opened in 2016, the Museo Atlántico Lanzarote was inspired by MUSA in Mexico and is the first underwater contemporary art museum in Europe. The museum aims to bring attention to environmental and climate change issues as well as create a new habitat for the Canary Islands. Diving instructors lead detailed tours of the nearly 300 sculptures.
Shipwreck Trail, Florida Keys
Divers can explore a series of historic shipwrecks in the Florida Keys. The oldest shipwreck is the San Pedro, which left Havana, Cuba bound for Spain in 1733. It got caught in a hurricane and sank because it didn't have enough time to return to the port. The youngest shipwreck is the Thunderbolt, built during World War II. It was donated to the Florida Keys Artificial Reef Association in1986.
