Carol Vaness, the well-known American opera singer, was born in San Diego and began her professional performance in San Francisco. She has sung at many of the major opera houses in the world. Unlike other world-famous male opera singers, she was particularly known for her Mozart operatic roles.
At the Metropolitan Opera in New York City where she often sings, Carol’s voice must be loud enough to be heard by four thousand people. It must reach every person in the theater, without a microphone, even when she’s singing softly. The reason Carol can project her voice that far is the way she breathes.
“When you breathe, it’s like a swimmer taking a deep breath before going underwater,” Carol explains. “You have to take a lot of air into your lungs.”
According to Carol, the main difference between pop singing and opera is “how you breathe, how much air you take in, and how you control it coming out. Regular singing is more like speaking, and it’s a lot softer.
Ever since she started piano lessons at the age of ten, Carol has loved music. As she got older, she decided to become a music teacher. When she went to college, she took singing lessons as part of her studies. Her voice teacher discovered that nineteen-year-old Carol had an exceptionally beautiful soprano(女高音) voice – the highest singing voice for women.
Today, Carol performs throughout the United States and Europe and she has sung for almost twenty years. But she has never forgotten why she started singing in the first place. “Put your heart into your singing and enjoy it,” says Carol, “because singing is a great joy. That’s why I sing. In fact, that’s why everybody sings.”

Every small child knows the panic of losing sight of its mother in the supermarket, and as these delightful pictures show, small whales obviously feel the same way.
Taken by a British diver who was following the sperm whale(抹香鲸) calf, they show the minute the baby - who had lost track of its mum - found her again in the sea off the Azores.
Soaring 30ft across the waves, the newborn slammed(猛力推)its body onto the water with joy after becoming separated from its family group in the chilly(寒冷的)waters.
But the whale calf was doing more than just jumping for joy.
British biologist and dive guide Justin Hart, 44, who took the pictures, says that young whales communicate with older ones in the ocean by creating a slamming sound which travels through the water to the ears of the adults deep below.
By leaping out of the water and slamming its 12ft long body onto the surface of the sea up to 30 times, the baby whale is telling its relatives where it is so they can regroup.
He said: “We had been following the sperm whale calf for most of the day. Sperm whales, of all the whales and dolphins, are the species that dive the deepest and for the longest time.”
“The calves have to follow what’s going on below them from the surface as best they can probably listening to the echo location(回声定位)clicks of the adults.”
“However, sometimes the adults re-surface far out of sight of the calf, and in this situation the whales often leap out of the water causing a large bang as their bodies hit the surface. In this way, the whale family could regroup.”
He added: “When I took the photo, two adults’ females had just resurfaced and the calf quite literally began jumping for joy.”
Mr. Hart captured the rare image four miles from the port of Lajes do Pico while he was working as a crewman on an underwater documentary with special license to film sperm whales in the area.
Sperm whales live in nearly all the world’s oceans in groups of about 15 to 20 animals and they practice communal(集体的) childcare. The calves do not have to follow their mother too closely as sperm whales can take milk from any milk-producing female in its social group.
1.The underlined word “they” in paragraph 2 probably refers to _____.
A. the whales B. the divers
C. the photos D. the mothers
2.According to Justin Hart, the young sperm whale ____.
A. found its family with his help
B. suffered a lot in the cold waters
C. lost contact with its family for days
D. slammed as a means of communication
3.What do we know about sperm whales?
A. The young are independent.
B. They are highly social animals.
C. They tend to live in warm sea waters.
D. Females take turns to care for babies.
4.What would be the best title for the text?
A. Baby whales perform slamming with joy
B. Sperm whales ---fairly intelligent animals
C. Lost sperm whale baby reunited with its family
D. Slamming--- a way of communication among whales

How to Feel Worthy
1. It might be when spending time around others or when you’re by yourself but it’s often spurred on by feeling that others are more successful, privileged or more clever than you. The following tips may help you get out of the suffering situation.
2. Comparison weakens your self-reliance and causes you to feel less than, because instead of concentrating on what you have, you only see what you don’t have.

Learn how to appreciate other people’s achievements. 3. If you appreciate other people’s work, others will always appreciate you, which is a form of respect and satisfaction that adds to your sense of self-worth.
