语篇提能 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A Japanese Imperial Navy submarine(潜艇 ), thought to be the first one sunk by a US destroyer during the Dec. 7. 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor, was discovered in an underwater training area in the harbor. According to the news from NOAA, the sub was one of five that was supposedto slip into Pearl Harbor and wait for the air attack from the Japanese. But one was hit and sunk by the USS Ward, another washed ashore in Waimanalo，and a third was found in the waters off of Oahu in the 1960s.

It was like finding the Titanic. ” “ A shell hole in the subs tower proved that the sub had been shot down，” NOAA said. Historical accounts of the Pearl Harbor attack mentioned that the ward fired on a Japanese small－sized submarine，but until Wednesdays find，the story was unproven. “It was just unbelievable，” Kalvaitis said. “Youthink it cant be happening, but we recognized it right away. It was in good condition and we got within four feet of the conning tower. ” The 78－foot submarine is sitting upright and is in “good， condition Kalvaitis said. Two torpedoes still in their tubes provided additional proofs to the submarines identity. Two Japanese sailors were aboard the submarine when it sank. Kalvaitis said he did not know what would be done with the submarine, which belongs to the Japanese government. 1． The passage is mainly about ______.
