Scientists have used clever methods to discover a hidden hallway inside the Great Pyramid (金字塔) of Giza in Egypt. The 9-meter-long hallway could lead to new discoveries about the pyramid.
The Great Pyramid of Giza is the largest of the three pyramids near Giza, Egypt. It was built about 4,500 years ago by a king named Khufu. The pyramid was built as a place for Khufu to be buried (安葬).
The pyramid was sealed until AD 820, when someone broke it open on one side. This person found three rooms, one on top of the other, inside the pyramid. The largest room was the King’s Chamber. Below that was the Queen’s Chamber. There was another room underground.

The pyramid has a long, angled hallway, called the Grand Gallery. The Grand Gallery leads to the King’s Chamber. There are also other hallways that go up and down, and a tunnel that now serves as an entrance for tourists.
But most of the pyramids have been sealed since they were built. The pyramid is believed to hold many other secrets. But scientists don’t want to damage the pyramid by opening it up to learn those secrets.
Instead, since 2015, a group of scientists from around the world have been using invisible rays (不可见射线) to scan (扫描) the inside of the pyramid. They call their group “Scan Pyramids”.
Now the Scan Pyramids group has shown that there is also a hidden hallway not far from the tourist’s entrance to the pyramid.
It’s still not clear what the hallway and the large empty space were for. The scientists believe they may have been used to help spread out the weight of the pyramid.
The scientists plan to continue scanning the pyramid and others, in the hopes of learning more.
(B) 26. What was Khufu’s purpose in building the Great Pyramid of Giza?
A. To live in it.
B. To bury himself.
C. To send signals.
D. To fight against enemies.
(C) 27. The third and fourth paragraphs describe ____.
A. who opened the pyramid
B. when the pyramid was built
C. what the inside of the pyramid looks like
D. how the King and Queen’s life was in the pyramid
(A) 28. The underlined word “damage” in Paragraph 5 probably means “____”.
A. harm
B. repair
C. protect
D. build
(D) 29. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. More mysteries of the pyramid will be discovered.
B. People need to try their best to protect the pyramid.
C. Scientists need new technology to explore pyramids.
D. Scientists discovered a secret hallway inside a pyramid.

答案： 【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了科学家在一个金字塔内部发现了一条隐藏的走廊。26. B【点拨】细节理解题。根据“The pyramid was built as a place for Khufu to be buried（安葬）.”可知，胡夫建立这座金字塔是为了安葬自己。27. C【点拨】段落大意题。通读第三、四段可知，这两段描述了金字塔的内部结构。28.
