Time, wars and natural disasters have a bad effect on the artistic and cultural objects in the world. More than 1,000 years ago, a fire destroyed the Library of Alexandria in Egypt. In 1755, an earthquake destroyed Ribeira Palace in Lisbon, Portugal, along with artworks inside. In modern times, the Taliban destroyed the huge Bamiyan Buddhas in Afghanistan.

As we all know, museums play an important part in our daily lives. They keep evidence of culture and history and exhibit great works. A major goal of most museums in the world is to make sure that important historical objects do not disappear forever. The Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy, holds 1,250 pieces of ancient Greek and Roman sculptures. These objects have inspired artists and historians for many years. So the museum is working to make a complete and permanent record of the artworks so that the generations in the future will enjoy them as well.

The project is an effort of both the museum and the scientists from Indiana University in the United States. The team is using technology to create digital copies of the Uffizi’s ancient sculptures (雕像).

The process is called photogrammetry. At one time, this process was slow and expensive. But not anymore, said Professor Robert Frischer. He said photogrammetry is now much faster and cheaper. Now they can gather 3D data on a life-size sculpture in half an hour and they can process the data just in a couple of hours.

The images allow the viewer to examine the sculpture from all sides. And when the viewer zooms in (放大), the image becomes clearer. The Uffizi hopes to have the collection completed and available on the Internet by 2022.

【小题1】What caused the Ribeira Palace to ruin?
A.A fire.B.An earthquake.C.A war.D.A heavy rain.
【小题2】Which is a major role of most museums worldwide?
A.To improve people’s living conditions.B.To attract more artists and historians.
C.To make profits by selling great works.D.To save important historical objects.
【小题3】What does the underlined word “permanent” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Elegant.B.Valuable.C.Lasting.D.Effective.
【小题4】What can we learn about photogrammetry?
A.It works much faster now.B.It is too costly to afford.
C.It can print a 3D sculpture.D.It is developed by Uffizi.

In Paris, the River Seine plays many roles in the city: It divides the Right Bank from the Left Bank, acting as a dividing line; it provides transportation by riverboat and plenty of chance for pleasant walks; lots of Paris’ famous sights are located on both sides of the banks, including the Eiffel Tower and Notre-Dame Cathedral.

The Basics(基本原则)

One of the best ways to see the Seine is to walk along it, particularly from Les Invalides to Ile Saint-Louis, where you can go across the river on bridges such as Pont Alexandre III, Pont Royal, and Pont des Arts to see some of the most beautiful and best-known buildings in France. Besides, a River Seine trip allows you to rest your legs and enjoy the sights; book a brunch, lunch, or dinner trip to combine your sightseeing with a French meal, or choose the Eiffel Tower to enjoy two of Paris’ most popular activities on one tour.   

Things to Know Before You Go

While you are running through Paris’ main tourist areas, the River Seine is hard to miss; you won’t have to go far to find it. There are more than 30 bridges over the Seine in Paris. You should wear comfortable shoes for walking along the banks and bridges and be prepared for crowds on popular bridges like Pont des Arts.

When to Get There

For a peaceful walk, head to the river in the early morning hours before most of the crowds and travelers arrive. Or go for an after-dinner walk to take in the scenery of the City of Light on the water.

Visiting Canal Saint-Martin

In northeast Paris, the Canal Saint-Martin area is a place where you can see footbridges and modern locals instead of the Seine’s traffic and tourists. Enjoy a more relaxing moment.

【小题1】Which of the following can be used to describe the River Seine?
A.A riverboat provider.B.A good place to swim.
C.A dividing line in Paris.D.An ancient sightseeing place.
【小题2】Which is the best line to walk along to see the River Seine according to the author?
A.From the Right Bank to the Left Bank.B.From Les Invalides to Ile Saint-Louis.
C.From Pont Alexandre Ⅲ to Pont Royal.D.From Pont des Arts to the Eiffel Tower.
【小题3】What can we know about the River Seine from the passage?
A.It is too far away to be found.
B.Popular bridges over it may be very crowded.
C.It is so wide that there are few bridges across it.
D.Comfortable clothes should be prepared when you walk over its bank.
【小题4】When does the author suggest visiting the River Seine?
A.At midnight.
B.At the dinner time.
C.The time when there aren’t crowds.
D.The time when other travelers arrive.
【小题5】What can we infer from the passage?

C.It’s a good choice to visit the Eiffel Tower on another tour after visiting the Seine.
