Five people are at our table, including myself. I’ve already learnt a great deal about them in the short time we’ve been at sea, although we rarely meet except at mealtimes.
First of all, there is Dr. Stone. He is a man of about sixty-five, with gray hair and a friendly face. He gave up his work a short while ago and is now traveling round the world before he retires to some quite country village. As a young man, he served for many years as a doctor in the army and visited many countries. He’s told us a great deal about the city to which they are going.
Then there is “Grandmother”. I call her that because her name escapes me. In spite of being a grandmother, she looks remarkable young, no more than fifty. She is on her way to visit a daughter who went to Australia some years ago. Naturally she is very excited at the thought of seeing her again, and her three grandchildren, whom she has never seen.
Then there is a man I don’t care for very much, the engineer by the name of Barlow. He has been on leave in England and is now returning to his work in Singapore.
The other person who sits at our table is Mrs. Hunt. I’ve found out hardly anything about her. She’s extremely quiet and rarely talks, except to consult the doctor about children’s various illnesses. She is on her way to join her husband in India.
【小题1】What can we know about Mr. Stone?
A. He knows a lot about the city the author is going to visit. |
B.He is going to give up his work. |
C.He has been retired for many years. |

The sea horse is a magical animal, which has puzzled (使困惑) people for thousands of years. In ancient Rome sea horses were believed to be the babies of Neptune’s horses. And Neptune was the god of the ocean. Now we know they are not horses at all — they are a kind of fish. They still seem as magical as ever, especially to divers who have watched them horsing around(瞎闯) in the sea. But today, sea horse populations face an uncertain future. Fishermen are catching too many of them, and their undersea habitats (栖息地) are being destroyed.
At least 20 million sea horses are taken from the ocean each year. More than 95% are used for traditional medicines in Asian countries. The sea horses are usually dried and then made into powder which is used to treat such problems as asthma(哮喘), throat infections, skin diseases and cuts. How well the medicines work is unclear.
Sea horses are also bought and sold in large numbers as pets. Sea horse expert Amanda Vincent warns against buying pet sea horses. “A lot of people treat them as if they’re goldfish,” she says. But sea horses require very special care and live food. Most captive (被猎取的) sea horses pick up diseases and die.
Sea horse experts are trying to teach fishermen to become sea horse farmers. Instead of pulling nets of sea horses from the ocean, fishermen could learn to raise them in specially designed saltwater “farms”. That way, fishermen would have sea horses to sell, but ocean populations would not be hurt.
Vincent and her team have only discovered the 35 different species of sea horses, and they still have plenty of sea horse secrets left to unlock. That is why, Vincent told TFK, protecting future sea horse populations is especially important: “I promise your readers that by the time they grow up to be marine biologists, we’ll still have a lot to learn.”
【小题1】In the past, Romans thought the sea horse to be ______.
A.a kind of horse | B.a kind of fish |
C.the god of the ocean | D.one of Neptune’s pets |
A.People in Asian countries hunt sea horses for food. |
B.Most sea horses caught are used as medicine. |
C.The effects of the powder of sea horses are uncertain. |
D.35 different kinds of sea horses have been discovered. |
A.follow | B.collect | C.get | D.create |
A.do more research on sea horses |
B.teach fishermen how to farm sea horses |
C.stop hunting sea horses |

The new studies show that fewer than half of the 9th graders in many of the nation’s largest cities, can ever graduate. The studies clearly show that the dropout rate isn’t dropping. And, in particular, the dropout rate isn’t dropping for poor and minority students.
Amazingly, though so many regret the rising dropout rate, our schools continue to lack formal plans--or any plans--to teach students motivation(动机). Most schools have no game plan to ensure that students understand that school will be completely necessary. Schools expect youth and children to act as though school is important, but they never teach them to believe that.
Years ago, families ensured that the offspring recognized the value of school. But in many modern families, the children may fail to recognize the importance of school life just because these families may actually tell the child that school is not important. Since many families are not motivating their children to be interested students, youth professionals, like teachers may need to provide this training. Otherwise, it is likely the dropout rate will continue not to drop, but only worsen.
Here are some strategies to convince even the most apathetic (无动于衷的) students that they must stay in school.
Ask students if they will ever need to work: The world has changed. 100 years ago, factory work was the booming job, and it required no education. Today, factories are increasingly automated. Most computer-related jobs require education and at least a high school diploma.
Ask students which century they will be prepared for: In 1900, the most common jobs were farm laborer and domestic servant—education not needed. Now, the most common jobs are office and sales worker—education and diploma usually needed. An amazing 6 out of 10 people today work in a store or office.
Ask students to devise a way that the employee could be replaced. For example, the coming trend in fast food is to use computers rather than people to run the restaurant. A prototype is apparently already being tested. The students should discover that most jobs that lack education and diploma requirements may be ripe for automation.
1. What does the underlined part mean in Paragraph1?
A.Few students can afford to go to school in large cities. |
B.A large number of the 9th grades can graduate now. |
C.There are still quite a few 9th graders leaving school early. |
D.Most schools in large cities have fewer and fewer students. |
2.Without the help of youth professionals,_____.
A.more and more families will gradually recognize the value of school. |
B.some parents will be more convinced of their children’s future. |
C.it is likely that the dropout rate in schools won’t continue to drop. |
D.the schools will make proper plans to solve the problems with dropout. |
3.The author takes factory work for example mainly to ______.
A.tell us that many jobs requires certain education in the past |
B.show that there are more factory work and employment in modern society |
C.show that employment in the computer field grows at a high rate |
D.emphasize that modern jobs require education and schools are necessary |
4.It can be inferred that______.
A.both schools and families should answer for the high dropout rate |
B.many new jobs don’t need children’s high school diploma |
C.working in a store doesn’t require a high school diploma |
D.most schools are ready to help students recognize the importance of study |
5. If students play the “Replace Me” game, the result would be “______”.
A.They will know that they can ‘always’ do without a diploma |
B.More of them will drop out early to go to work |
C.They will discover that lack education is a disadvantage in choosing jobs |
D.They will become better at using computers to hunt for a job |

A modern-day love story of a man spotting the girl of his dreams across a New York subway train and tracking her down over the Internet has failed to have a fairytale ending with the relationship over.
For Web designer Patrick Moberg, then 21, from Brooklyn, it was love at first sight when he spotted a woman on a Manthttan train last November. But he lost her in the crowd so he set up a website with a sketch picture to find her—www.Nygirlofmydreams.com.
Unbelievably in a city of 8 million people, it only took Moberg 48 hours to track down the woman, with his phone ringing non-stop and email box overflowing. New Yorkers took sympathy on the subway Romeo and joined his hunt.
The mysterious girl was named as Camille Hayton, from Melbourne, Australia, who was working at the magazine Black Book and also lived in Brooklyn. One of her friends spotted the sketched picture on the Web site and recognized her.
But after finding each other, appearing on TV and getting international press, the couple took their romance out of the public eye, with Moberg closing down the Web site and with both refusing to make any more comments—until now.
Hayton told Australian newspaper The Sunday Telegraph that she dated Moberg for about two months but it just didn’t work out.
“I say we dated for a while but now we’re just friends,” Hayton, now 23, told the newspaper. Hayton said she is still recognized about three times a week on the streets of Manhattan as “that girl” and the question is always the same: “So what happened?”
“I think the situation was so intense that it linked us,” she said, adding, “it linked us in a way that you could mistake, I guess, for being more romantic than it was. I don’t know. But I wanted to give it a go so didn’t wonder what if, what if?”[来源:Zxxk.Com]
Hayton told The Sunday Telegraph that she is enjoying single life in New York, keeping busy with acting classes, working in two clothing stores. Last week she had a small role as a waitress in the long-running daytime soap As the World Turns.
“I just can’t believe it happened. It feels like a long time ago,” said Hayton. Moberg, however, was still refusing to comment on the relationship.
1.After Moborg lost the girl in the crowd he set up a website with .
A. a pretty notice to find her B. a rough drawing to discover her

2. Moberg found the girl in a short time because .
A. he phoned everybody in the city B. he e-mailed everybody in the city
C. he continued his hunt day and night D. he got help from the net citizens
3. What has happened to Hayton after the subway romance?
A. She has become a superstar in the city.
B. She has become a journalist in Australia.
C. She still gets noticed in the streets in New York.
D. She is out of work and is looking for a new job.
4.The best title for this passage may be .
