The Monster of Lake Tianchi
The "Monster of Lake Tianchi" in the Changbai Mountains in Jilin province, northeast China, is back in the news after several recent sightings. The director of a local tourist office, Meng Fanying, said the monster, which seemed to be black in colour, was ten metres from the edge of the lake during the most recent sighting. "It jumped out of the water like a seal—about 200 people on Changbai"s western peak saw it," he said. Although no one really got a clear look at the mysterious creature, Xue Junlin, a local photographer, claimed that its head looked like a horse.
In another recent sighting, a group of soldiers claim they saw an animal moving on the surface of the water. The soldiers, who were walking along the side of the lake, watched the creature swimming for about two minutes. "It was greenish-black and had a round head with 10-centimetre horns", one of the soldiers said.
A third report came from Li Xiaohe, who was visiting the lake with his family. He claims to have seen a round black creature moving quickly through the water. After three or four hundred metres it dived into the water. Ten minutes later the monster appeared again and repeated the action. Mr Li Xiaohe said that he and his family were able to see the monster clearly because the weather was fine and the lake was calm.
There have been reports of monsters in Lake Tianchi since the beginning of the last century, although no one has seen one close up. Some photos have been taken but they are not clear because it was too far away. Many people think the monster may be a distant cousin of the Loch Ness monster in Scotland. They also think that there might be similar creatures in other lakes around the world. Scientists, however, are sceptical. They say that the low-temperature lake is unlikely to be able to support such large living creatures.
Lake Tianchi is the highest volcanic lake in the world. It is 2,189 metres high and covers an area of about ten square kilometres. In places it is more than 370 metres deep.

IV: 任务型读写
请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。注意：每空格1个单词。
One of the roles of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) is to choose the host city for the Olympic Games. The host city election takes place in a country which does not have a candidate city for the Olympics in question. Except for unusual circumstances, the election is held seven years before the Olympic Games take place. There have been two phases leading to the election of the host city since December 1999.
Phase 1: applicant cities
Any city that wishes to host the Olympic Games must be proposed to the IOC by its National Olympic Committee (NOC), with a letter from the city itself. During the first phase, which lasts around ten months, each applicant city must answer a questionnaire to provide general information about itself. Then the applications will be examined carefully. A number of things will be considered, such as government support, public opinion, general infrastructure（基础设施）, safety, accommodations and transport. The IOC Executive Board（执行董事会）will determine which applicant cities will be accepted as candidate cities. Only candidate cities can continue with the procedure.
Phase 2: candidate cities
Candidate cities must provide a candidature（候选资格）file according to the instructions given by the IOC. After all the files are examined and the IOC Evaluation Commission（评估委员会）produces its report, the IOC Executive Board draws up a list of final candidate cities. The general assembly of the IOC then takes a vote on the host city.
