练习材料： L8(1)：A famous monastery 时长：58s
The Great St. Bernard Pass connects Switzerland to Italy.
At 2,473 metres, it is the highest mountain pass in Europe.
The famous monastery of St. Bernard, which was founded in eleventh century,lies about a mile away.
For hundreds of years, St. Bernard dogs have saved the lives of travellers crossing the dangerous Pass.
These friendly dogs, which were first brought from Asia, were used as watchdogs even in Roman times.
Now that a tunnel has been built through the mountains, the Pass is less dangerous, but each year, the dogs are still sent out into the snow whenever a traveller is in difficulty.
Despite the new tunnel, there are still a few people who rashly attempt to cross the Pass on foot.
