六、阅读理解
阅读下面短文，从每小题的四个选项中，选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。
Do you know what the world's highest waterfall is? You may say that they are Niagara Falls. Niagara Falls are really beautiful，but in terms of the height，the most fantastic one in the world is Angel Falls. They are deep in the jungles(丛林）of Venezuela.
Few people have ever seen Angel Falls. It's very hard to get there. If you go there on foot，you have to travel for weeks through thick jungles. If you go by plane from Caracas，a city on the southern coast，it will take about four hours.
One of the most interesting facts about Angel Falls is how they were found. They were named after an American pilot. His name was Jimmy Angel. In 1937，his plane crashed(坠毁）near the top of the falls. That's how he found them.
Angel Falls drop nearly a kilometer from a tabletop mountain. The water seems to be dropping straight out of the clouds. The height of the falls is very great. By the time the water reaches the ground it has already turned into fog(雾).
