Aquarium (养鱼缸)
An aquarium can be a small container for a few goldfish. 1. Aquariums give people the chance to observe an ecosystem (生态系统) very different from their own.
People who like fish often keep aquariums as a hobby. Popular fish for home aquariums include goldfish, guppies and bettas. Home aquariums can be as small as a bowl or as large as an entire wall. For their fish to survive, owners must make sure that their aquariums stay clean and that the water is the right temperature. They must not put too many fish or natural enemies together. 2.
Found in many large cities, public aquariums are buildings with large tanks of fish and other water animals. Different tanks contain fish, and salty waters. People come to see and learn about fish and their habitats. 3. . Marine biologists (海洋生物学家) help the animals to get well and then return them to the wild.
People have kept fish in man-made habitats for at least 4,500 years. The ancient Sumerians, Egyptians, and Romans kept fish in aquariums. 4. Man-made ponds filled with fish later became popular in European gardens. The trend spread to North America in 1800s. In 1853 the zoological Society of London, England, opened the first public aquarium. 5. More people also began keeping fish in small aquariums at home.

In 1947 a group of famous people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductor decided to hold an international festival of music,dance and theater in Edinburgh. The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.
At the same time, the “Fringe” appeared as a challenge to the official festival.Eight theater groups turned up uninvited in 1947,in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform,and they did so in a public house disused for years.
Soon,groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University, and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge,Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theater by little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh.
Today the “Fringe”,once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theater,music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts. And yet as early as 1959,with only 19 theater groups performing,some said it was getting too big.
A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971, and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself. In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries. More than 1,25 million tickets were sold.
1.What was the purpose of Edinburgh Festival at he beginning?
A. To bring Europe together again.
B. To honor heroes of World War 11.
C. To introduce young theater groups.
D. To attract great artists from Europe.
2.Why did some uninvited theater groups come to Edinburgh in 1947?
A. They owned a public house there.
B. They came to take up a challenge.

It was a dark, wet November morning. It seemed like it would take a million years to get to summer again. I thought bears have got it right---- what a perfect idea to sleep through the worst part of the year and wake up when spring comes!
“Want some words of affirmation(肯定)?” a coworker, seeing my mood, kindly suggested. “You don’t think they would cheer you up?”
“Today? No.” I shook my head.
“I used to think so too,” he said, “until I realized the effect my words had on a certain person. Well, it was someone I knew pretty well. I have to say I treated him rather badly.”
“You? But you are always so positive! How did you treat him badly?”
“I told him I did not like anything about him, really. I told him I did not even like his name. In fact, it wasn’t only what I said. I also did pretty bad things to him. When he was hungry, I did not give him the chance to eat proper food. When he felt like doing something fun, I said to him that he was being childish and having fun was not productive (有成果的). And worst of all, when he was sick and needed care, I did not care. I told him to get up and get to work. And when he did, I never told him he did good work. You could say I was ashamed of him,” he said. “I wanted to get rid of him because he just wasn’t good enough for me---but couldn’t.”
“But that was heartless!”
He nodded. “Then one day it all changed. I stood there in front of the bathroom mirror one morning. I saw the dark circles under his eyes, I saw the excess (过量的) weight. I saw the hair that needed cutting. And I saw the eyes that once had looked at the world eagerly. Now they were so sad and tired. And there and then I realized he deserved better. So I told the man I had disliked for so many years that he was a good person after all.”
My jaw (下巴) dropped. I looked at him---full of positive energy, in good shape, always ready to encourage others.
“Wow…”
He winked (眨眼) at me. “So how about having a little positive conversation with the bathroom mirror? The person in there has the greatest effect on you!”
