Robert Ballard was born in 1942. From an early age, he loved the sea. Ballard grew up in Southern California. He spent his free time at the beach near his home. He enjoyed fishing and swimming. He even learned to dive.
When Ballard wasn’t at the ocean, he loved reading about it. At age 10, he read 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, a book which describes the undersea adventures of Captain Nemo. Ballard decided he wanted to be like Captain Nemo when he grew up. His parents helped him follow his dream.
Ballard was a hardworking student. He spent many years learning all he could about the ocean. By the age of 28, he was an expert. In 1970, he took a job as a scientist at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute in Massachusetts. There he studied underwater mountains of the Atlantic Ocean. He came up with ways to predict volcanoes under the oceans.
Working with other scientists, Ballard also found previously unknown sea animals. These animals lived far below the ocean’s surface, where scientists had believed no animals could live.
By the 1980s, Ballard’s interests changed. He developed unmanned vehicles to explore the ocean bottom. His first find, the well-known ship Titanic, made Ballard famous. He was not happy with just one big find, however. He looked for — and found — other well-known ships. One was the German battleship Bismarck. Another was the U.S. Yorktown, an aircraft carrier that sank during World War II.
Today Robert Ballard is still an underwater explorer. He also heads an organization that encourages students to learn about science. Ballard hopes that some of the students will follow in his footsteps. After all, the world’s huge oceans are mostly unknown. Who knows what remains to be discovered under the sea?
What was Ballard’s dream when he was young?

A.To be a science teacher.
B.To be an animal expert.
C.To be a famous writer.      
D.To be an underwater explorer.

When Ballard worked at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, he _____.

A.explored the undersea world by ship
B.thought of ideas to predict underwater volcanoes
C.found some unknown sea animals alone
D.set up an organization to teach students science

What can we learn from the text?

A.Ballard’s parents felt disappointed at his undersea adventures.
B.Ballard didn’t like fishing and swimming in his childhood.
C.Ballard was greatly influenced by 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.
D.Human beings have explored more than half of the sea.

Although Paris is often considered the city of romance, close to a million adults who call it home are single. Many single people say that France’s capital is one of the most difficult places to meet people. The complaints(抱怨) of this lonely group have inspired a new phenomenon known as “supermarket dating.” At Galerie Lafayette Gourmet, singles can shop for more than just the items on their grocery list. They can look for someone who has blue eyes, brown hair, and is 1.8 meters tall, or whatever may be on their romantic shopping list.
At this Paris location, single people of all ages can schedule their shopping for Thursday nights between 6:30 and 9:00 p.m. When they walk through the door, they pick up a purple basket to advise that they are looking for love. They try to arrive early because the baskets disappear quickly, and then they have to wait in line for their turn to wander the store aisles(过道) .
With purple baskets in hand, shoppers can consider their romantic options while they pick out their groceries. When they are ready to pay, they can go to the checkout line for singles who want to chat.
Most of the people who look for love in the supermarket are skeptical of Internet dating. They know that it is easy to embellish(美化) one’s appearance or to lie about one’s age over the Internet. The supermarket, on the other hand, is considered a safe and casual environment in which to meet a potential match. In addition, what one finds in another’s grocery basket can say a thing or two about that person’s character or intentions. Buying pet food can be a man’s way of showing a potential match that he has a sensitive side. Women who fill their baskets with low-fat food show their healthy style of living. These days it’s possible to find much more than food at a grocery store.
What do many single people in Pairs complain about?

A.The difficulty in meeting people.
B.The idea of supermarket dating.
C.The items on their grocery list.
D.The inconvenience in shopping.

Which of the following can be inferred but is not clearly stated in the second paragraph?

A.The dating supermarket is located in Paris.
B.The dating supermarket is open only on Thursday evenings.
C.People looking for love must get a basket of a particular colour
D.The dating supermarket has very good business.

According to the writer, a possible way to win a woman’s heart is to _______.

A.pick up a purple basket
B.Buy low-fat food
C.embellish your appearance
D.buy pet food

Why do the people prefer the supermarket dating to Internet dating?

A.The supermarket dating is more convenient.
B.The supermarket dating is more casual.
C.The supermarket dating can be trusted more.
D.The supermarket dating is less expensive.

Parents should stop blaming themselves because there's not a lot they can do about it. I mean the teenager problem. Whatever you do or however you choose to deal with it, at certain times a wonderful, reasonable and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal.
I've seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, right from a child, should stand up whenever anyone entered the room, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman. I saw him last week when I called round. Sprawling himself on the sofa in full length, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in, and his greeting was no more than a quick glance at me. His mother was ashamed. "I don't know what to do with him these days," she said. "He's forgotten all the manners we taught him."
He hasn't forgotten them. He' s just decided that he' s not going to use them. She confessed that she would like to come up behind him and throw him down from the sofa onto the floor.
Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture, reach across the table, stare at me and say, "I don't like your dress; it's ugly." One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school. The other has left home.
"Where did we go wrong?" her parents are now very sad. Probably nowhere much. At least, no more than the rest of that unfortunate race, parents.
This text is most probably written by _______.

A.a headmaster of a middle school
B.a specialist in teenager studies
C.a parent with teenage children
D.a doctor for mental health problems

The boy on the sofa would most probably be described as _______.

A.lazy B.quiet C.unusual      D.rude

From the second example we can infer that the parents of the two daughters _______.

A.pay no attention to them
B.feel helpless to do much about them
C.are too busy to look after them
D.have come to hate them

What is the author's opinion about the sudden change in teenage children?

A.Parents have no choice but to try to accept it.
B.Parents should pay still more attention to the change.
C.Parents should work more closely with school teachers.
D.Parents are at fault for the change in their children.

How to be a good tourist
We travel for work but also for fun and learning. New restaurants, galleries, temples and new architecture…These places are homes for people like us who live and work there. How would you want visitors to behave in your own home? Think about it     There are many ways of doing this without sacrificing our own holiday.
Do your homework.     Guides will help you when you get to site, but is that the best place to go? Is it popular only because the one-day tourist can see it easily or because it is really a worthwhile place to visit? You’d better check it out.
   Don’t go to your hotels for meals. Walk around, even if in the streets closest to your hotel. Eat in local restaurants .Talk to the locals. Learn a few in the local language and use them. You will surely get a smile from the hotel staff and street sellers .
Help preserve the sites. Most of the sites you visit may be visited by millions of people a year, so care needs to be taken to allow others to enjoy them as well. Some of these monuments are so old and fragile that they are sensitive to the touch of hands or bags and shows.     This way, you don’t encourage the use of those plastic bags that fly all over many sites.
And here’s the big one—good manners are nearly universal.     If that doesn’t sound like you, then give the world a break and stay home.

A.Experience the place.
B.Always have a cloth bag with you.
C.Read up on the places you want to visit.
D.Try to buy something from the local stores.

E. A good tourist is polite, positive and eco-sensitive.
F. We’ve cleaned up after ourselves and taken only good memories.
G. If we are good tourists, wherever we go, we try to make it a little better because of our visit.

My son Tom taught me a beautiful lesson today. He is three years old and it is amazing watching him grow up.
He called out to me today saying, “Papa, sit”. That usually means         everything and going next to him and sitting down to play with him. I did that, as he can be         and will not stop calling out until I         . He was playing with beads (珠子), pushing a string through them, which is a great exercise to help         fine motor skills. Then, after he finished playing with the beads, it was time to put them back in the box that they are stored in. I saw him         pick up each bead, look at it         it were made of chocolate and then placed it into its box.
With over a hundred beads to go, I was getting         . “What a long time it will take! Why cannot he          ten beads in one go and drop them in?” said my anxious mind. I noticed that he did this with as much         as he had while we were playing. I didn’t see any         between his play and his putting away the toy. Obviously he enjoyed both.
Then it suddenly         me that this boy was enjoying the whole         . The journey was his goal. For him the         was in the game and after the game, not just in the fun part. What a great perspective: to live each moment as it is the         moment; to do each task as it is the most awesome task. Nothing else        .
Looking at how         my son was putting beads into the box         me that the process was the goal. The joy of pilgrimage (朝圣) is not in getting there but in every         of the journey.
This is what living in the NOW is all         . Tom, my son, was showing me that it was about thoroughly enjoying every moment with         love and peace.
