The Bermuda Triangle(百慕大三角)is in the Atlantic Ocean, near Florida in the USA. During the past 60 years, more than 1,000 seamen in ships and pilots in planes have lost their lives. It is known as “The Triangle of Death”for its strange seawater and sudden storms. What's the strangest is the light of the seawater, which looks so bright that it can be seen even from an outer spaceship.
  At 2:00p.m. on Dec. 5, 1945, five planes took off in fine weather from the airport of Florida, on a training task. Two hours later, the leader in the sky radioed that he was “completely lost”. Then there was silence. Another plane was sent to look for them and also disappeared.
  One of the largest ship that had disappeared in the triangle was an American coal ship, 500meters long. The weather was good, and there were no messages for help before it was “gone”. No broken ships or dead bodies have been found so far.
  No one is able to tell how all these accidents have happened. A group of Japanese scientists were there to see what it was really like in 1995, but nothing has been heard of them ever since.
【小題1】 What is the passage mainly about?

Millie also checked the website about amazing things in the world and found an article about Bermuda Triangle. Now she is chatting with Raymond on the Internet.

Millie:
I like reading stories about amazing things in the world. The website you told me is very good. I found an article about the Bermuda Triangle.
Raymond:
The Bermuda Triangle? I've heard about it before. It is said that that many ships and planes disappeared there.
Millie:
You are right. That's why many people believe that strange forces are at work in the Bermuda Triangle.
Raymond:
I read in a book that something from another planet is working under the sea there.
Millie:
Actually there are many guesses. Some even believe the people from Atlantis, a lost city, use ray guns to shoot at ships and planes when they pass by.
Raymond:
Ray guns? Sounds interesting, but I don't believe it. What do scientists know about the Bermuda Triangle?
Millie:
Most of the scientists say there is no mystery about the Bermuda Triangle at all because ships and planes disappear everywhere.
Raymond:
Then why did so many strange things happen there?
Millie:
Well, some scientists say the Bermuda Triangle is a dangerous area because the weather there is strange.
Raymond:
What is the weather like there?
Millie:
The ocean near the Bermuda Triangle is a place of changing weather and sudden storms. Very strong winds blow from east to west. Currents of warm ocean water meet cooler water. The there comes fog and storms.
Raymond:
Um, maybe that is the reason. Who knows?
