W: Have you tried talking to them？

M: Yeah, and then what？

听力原文：W: Tom, do you know why Britain is separated from the continent？

M: No. But I guess millions of years ago Britain was also a part of the Continent.

W: You are right. Nearly 10,000 years ago, at the end of the Ice Age, a great flood washed over a wide, low plain, and created the English Channel. From then on, the island of Britain was isolated from the rest of Europe.

M: I know there have been many people who have wanted to swim across the Channel, and some of them have succeeded.

W: What's more, quite a lot of people have thought of building a channel tunnel since the 18th century, but no one thought this dream would come true. Now, however, the channel tunnel, the longest underwater passage on the earth, has been built.

M: When was it built？

W: A British team started to drill southeast from Dover and a French team started to drill northwest from Sangatte in 1987. The two teams met under the channel in December 1990, and they celebrated the completion of the 23-mile shaft.

M: Was it opened to the public immediately？

W: No. The tunnel was opened to the public in 1993 and now it is able to carry up to 30 million passengers a year.

How did the English Channel come into being？

A．Because of a flood 10,000 years ago.

B．Because of an earthquake 10,000 years ago.

C．Because of a flood 100,000 years ago.
