The Channel Islands are a group of British-owned islands lying in the English Channel, 10 to 30 miles off the French coast, and 70 to 90 miles from the English coast. There are ten islands with a total land area of 75 square miles and a total population of 123,000. The three largest islands, Jersey, Guernsey, and Alderney, have long been known for the fine breeds (品种) of cattle that are raised on them and named after them.
In earliest known history the islands were considered part of Normandy, which was part of France, but the ruler of Normandy became king of England in 1066, and from then on the islands were looked upon as British land. English control was unbroken until World War II, when the Germans held the islands for five years.
Although people on the islands speak both languages and they are considered English, their customs are more French than English.

An extremely enthusiastic truth seeker who runs the YouTube channel Bright Insight claims（声称）to have found the mysterious city of Atlantis and insists that its true location has been hiding in plain sight for thousands of years.
In a video, YouTube blogger Jimmy Bright argues that the Richat Structure, a geologic dome（穹状物）in northwest Sahara also referred to as the Eye of the Sahara, is the most likely location of Atlantis.
He mentioned measurements from the famous Dialogues of Plato, which gave birth to the mystery. The Greek philosopher（哲学家）claimed that Atlantis was a long-gone kingdom, which stretched into Europe as far as Italy and into Africa as far as Egypt thousands of years ago. The giant island was said to be wiped off the face of the planet by a natural disaster“in a single day and night of misfortune”.
At first sight, this has nothing to do with the land-based Richat Structure, but Jimmy claims that the so-called Younger Dryas theory could be a possible explanation. According to it, a massive change in global temperatures caused unexpected climate change and sea level to rise.
In what can be viewed as another proof to the Sahara theory, the diameter（直径）of the Richat Structure’s outer circle is 23.5 km according to Google Map’s measurements, which matches those mentioned by Plato — 127 stadia, which is roughly 23.5 km in today’s terms.
Another thing that helps solve the mystery is a theory that the Eye of the Sahara closely matches the description from Plato’s dialogues. The ancient philosopher wrote that the main city of Atlantis consisted of circles of water and land, which, Jimmy said, looks very similar to the circular form of the Richat Structure.
Although the majority of researchers believe that Plato’s story was nothing but a moral story used to describe a failed idea of seeking power and searching for fortune, it has raised quite a few theories, Since the Middle Ages, explorers have been pointing fingers at different places around the world, including the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, with the most amazing theories linking the location of Atlantis to the Antarctic and the North Sea.
1.What does Jimmy Bright claim to have discovered?
A. The most likely location of Atlantis.
B. The formation of the Richat Structure.
C. The measurements in the Dialogues of Plato.
D. The reasons behind the Younger Dryas theory.
2.How did Jimmy Bright do research into the location of Atlantis and arrive at a conclusion?
A. By studying the history of ancient Egypt.
B. By analyzing the research into Plato’s life story.
C. By explaining the Younger Dryas theory in a scientific way.
D. By comparing the Richat Structure with the famous Dialogues of Plato.
3.What’s the purpose of mentioning the Younger Dryas theory in Paragraph 4?
A. To stress the importance of the Richat Structure.
B. To present the influence it had on Atlantis.
C. To prove that Jimmy Bright might be correct.
D. To show Jimmy Bright’s opinion is unique.
4.What can be learned from the article?
A. The Eye of the Sahara is a mystery mentioned in the Dialogues of Plato.
B. The Richat Structure is where the mysterious city of Atlantis used to lie.
C. The Younger Dryas may have caused the disappearance of Atlantis overnight.
D. The Plato’s Story is meant to inspire explorers to locate the exact position of Atlantis.

Channel Islands
The two main islands, Jersey and Guernsey, are remarkable in that they present a combination of enjoyment peace and quiet. Neither island is very big (only ten miles long) and so all parts of these coasts are easily reached from the main centers — St. Helier and St. Peter Port. In both these towns and particularly in Jersey's St. Helier are concentrated (集中) the amusements of really big resorts (休养地). The nearness of France gives a continental atmosphere; the weather is far better than that in England. The other three islands, Jethou, Herm and Sark are small and quiet.
Isles of Scilly
The islands are really small and quiet; and the weather is warm but windy. The islands are excellent for those who enjoy exploring (探险) small inlets (水湾), creeks (小溪) and bays on foot, or even better in a boat.
Isle of Wight
The island is 24 miles across and therefore quite large. The scenery is good and varied. The resorts are neither overlarge nor showy. The crowds seem content with entertaining but quieter holidays. The island has the best sunshine record in Britain.
Isle of Man
An island with unique atmosphere — in some indefinable (难以描述的) way it is different from England, Scotland or Wales. Thirty miles long, with good roads and good public transport，the mountains，hills and glens (幽谷) are easily reached. Douglas is a major British resort and other resorts are lively.
1.Which is the largest of the islands mentioned?
A. Herm. B. The Isle of Man.
C. The Isle of Wight. D. Jersey.
2.If you want to be fairly sure you would have a lot of sun on holiday, which island would you choose?
A. The Channel Islands. B. The Isle of Man.
C. The Isle of Wight. D. The Scilly Isle.
3.If you are having a holiday on Jersey, where would you go for amusement?
A. Douglas. B. Sandown.
C. St. Helier. D. St. Peter Port.
