請依下文回答第 40 題至第 42 題 The most famous mystery about Loch Ness surrounds the phenomenon of an enormous creature, known as the LochNess Monster, or Nessie. The first recorded sighting of the monster was in A.D. 565, when it was said to have eaten alocal farmer. Over the years, rumors spread far and wide.
In 1933, construction began on the A82—the road that runs along the north shore of the Loch. The work involvedconsiderable drilling and blasting and people believed that the disruption forced the monster into the open. Around thistime, there were numerous sightings and, in 1934, London surgeon R. K. Wilson took a photograph that appeared toshow a slender head and neck rising above the water. Nessie hit the headlines and has remained the topic of fierce debateever since.
In the 1960s, the Loch Ness Investigation Bureau conducted a ten-year survey. By the end of the decade, mini-submarines were used for the first time to explore the Loch. New public interest was generated in the mid-1970s whenunderwater photographs of what appeared to be a “flipper” were made public.
To this day, there is still no conclusive proof. Whatever the truth, it’s always worth a trip to Loch Ness to see foryourself.
