Archaeologists（考古学家）in Italy are learning more and more about the everyday life of the people who lived in Pompeii nearly 2,000 years ago. Most recently, they've carefully uncovered a well - preserved street restaurant.
Pompeii is an ancient city that's famous for being suddenly covered under the ground in the year 79 by the nearby volcano（火山）, Vesuvius. Though thousands of people got away from there, over 1,100 people were killed almost suddenly by the great heat. They were quickly covered by small rocks and dust from the volcano.
People began carefully digging out Pompeii in the mid - 1700s. Over the years, archaeologists have found theaters, swimming pools, gyms, hospitals, and many different kinds of stores. They've also found restaurants, including about 80 “fast food” restaurants, which served food and drinks to people on the street.
In a restaurant, archaeologists found many large clay jars（陶土罐）as well, which held food and drinks. Two jars held fish and meat. At least one of the jars held wine. “It was so strong that we could smell it through our masks,” said one of the archaeologists. Archaeologists expect to learn even more after the things in all the jars are studied carefully in the laboratory.
The archaeologists also found the bones of a small dog, as well as the bones of at least two people. One of the people was a man who was about 50 years old. He appeared to have been asleep when he was killed by the volcano.
Archaeologists say they are really only just beginning to understand all that they can learn from this restaurant. Because the site is so complete, they expect it to show more of the hidden secrets of Pompeii.
36. What's the Chinese meaning of the underlined word “well - preserved”
A. 漂亮的 B. 昂贵的 C. 保存完好的 D. 有趣的
37. Why is Pompeii famous
A. Because it is an ancient city in Italy.
B. Because it has a well - preserved street restaurant.
C. Because it has lots of restaurants and large clay jars.
D. Because it was suddenly covered under the ground by the nearby volcano.
38. Which paragraphs refer to archaeological discoveries in Pompeii
A. Paragraphs 4 to 6. B. Paragraphs 3 to 5. C. Paragraphs 2 to 4. D. Paragraphs 1 to 3.
39. What might the man about 50 be doing when he was killed
A. He might be sleeping. B. He might be working at home.
C. He might be feeding a small dog. D. He might be cooking in the kitchen.
40. What's the main idea of the passage
A. Pompeii is an ancient city covered by the nearby volcano.
B. Archaeologists found a famous ancient city in Italy.
C. Archaeologists have new findings in Pompeii.
D. Archaeologists found all the hidden secrets of Pompeii.
