When I failed in the final exam, I almost lost heart. My teacher told me a quote, __1._ goes like this; “Your future depends on many things, _2._ mostly on you.” I can’t agree _3._ (much) with this view.

In _6._ words, we are the master of our own future.

Take Abraham Lincoln for example. He was born in a poor family, and only received a _7._ (limit) education in his childhood. Yet through his painstaking efforts, he changed not only his own fate but also the history of America. _8._ to this day, Lincoln _9._ (regard) as one of the most inspiring figures in the world. _10._, I firmly believe that our future is in our own hands.

Great white sharks, the world’s largest predatory(食肉的) fish, eat three to four times more food than previously thought, an Australian study shows.

The U. S. research from the 1980s estimated a meal of 30 kilograms could make a one-tonshark continue living for more than six weeks.

That made assumptions that large sharks could survive long periods without eating.

However, a University of Tasmania-led study published this week in Scientific Reports found that 30kg was only enough for 12-15days.

Researchers tagged(给……附上标签) a dozen great white sharks at Neptune Islands off South Australia and calculated their metabolic(新陈代谢的) rate based on swimming speeds. They worked out how much energy the sharks burned and how much food they required.

“Their metabolic rate is faster than we assumed.”

Jayson Semmens was the lead author on the study. He said, ”They (U. S. researchers)picked a shark that probably wasn’t working very hard at the time when they did it . At the time it was a new study. They did some metabolic work similar to us but on one shark.”

“The white sharks, which we tagged, are working pretty hard … they’re coming up to some pretty high speed to catch the seals.” he said, ”Their metabolic rate is much faster than what we had assumed. These animals are probably going to be feeding every day, rather than several weeks.”

The research also sought to improve understanding of how sharks fit into the ocean ecosystem.

“We don’t have a good handle on the population sizes of white sharks. We know that sharks in general are under pressure around the world from overfishing.” Semmens said, “Furthermore, they’re long -lived. They reproduce late in their life and they produce a small number of babies.”

Semmens said the effects of removing white sharks from the ocean were thus far more important than realized. “They’re keeping under control a lot more animals than we thought,” he said.

1.The U.S. research made people believe that .

A. large sharks could live without eating meat

B. sharks gained several kilograms in six weeks

C. a one-ton shark needed to eat 30 kg every meal

D. large sharks could live without eating for several weeks

2.What is Semmens’ attitude towards U.S. researchers’ job?

A. Uninterested B. Surprised

C. Objective D. Satisfied

3.The sharks’ metabolic rate calculated by the two research groups is different probably because .

A. they used different research methods

B. they studied sharks of different sizes

C. the sharks they used for research were of different species

D. the sharks they used for research swam at different speeds

4.What do you know about white sharks? .

A. They play an important role in ocean ecosystem

B. They can produce a large number of babies

C. They swim more slowly than seals

D. They live a short life

5.The author’s purpose of writing the text is most likely to .

A. inform B. persuade

C. describe D. entertain
