Today was the day of trying the new boat on the river．Nella jumped out of bed, got dressed quickly and woke up her brother Jed．

After 　1　 Nella and Jed arrived at the riverbank and 　2　 the new blue boat waiting for them． They got into the boat and packed their picnic under the 　3　．Nella started the engine and 　4　 they went into the wide, brown and unknown 　5　 of the river．

The boat sounded 　6　 round a bend in the river． On the distant sandbank they saw a long dark creature 　7　 in the sun． It opened one eye at them and then suddenly disappeared into the 　8　．

“What was that?” shouted Jed．

“It looked like a crocodile to me!” said Nella．“We’d better be 　9　．”

Just as they came round the next 　10　, the engine 　11　 and came to a stop．Nella 　12　 to start the engine again． But it wouldn’t start． They were 　13　．

“Let’s get the wooden oars,” said Jed． “Maybe we can push the boat free．

They tried but failed．

“It’s boring!” said Jed． 

       Suddenly, they felt the boat move .It moved slowly off the sandbank. And the engine started again. Just at the same time they noticed a black   17     by the boatside and in no time it disappeared in the brown water ahead.

       DNA（Deoxyribonucleic acid）is one of the most important discoveries in science. DNA is the plan for the human being ，as a blueprint is the plan for building. DNA makes a person look the way he does. A person’s DNA. comes from a mixing of his parents’ DNA . That’s why a child looks like his parents. But ，besides controlling things such as height and hair color，DNA can also give people diseases，Scientists are now studying DNA to cure diseases.

In the seventies, scientists developed a process called recombinant (重新组合) or RDNA. Although it sounds difficult to understand，RDNA simply means taking DNA from one animal or plant and putting it into another. By doing so ， scientists can create new beings. In so doing，scientists can better understand DNA，especially what parts of DNA do what parts of DNA do what. After they understand DNA，scientists can begin to cure diseases. Often，the new being created will itself be the cure.

Besides curing diseases，RDNA research can also do other things. For example，scientists in Japan have already created“super-trees”Trees help humans，because they take CO₂， which poisons humans ，from the air and turns it into oxygen， which lets humans breathe.“Super-trees” do this too，but do it much faster. As things such as cars and factories have already put much CO₂ in the area，“super-trees”are badly needed.

Unfortunately，there is serious danger in RDNA research.  Scientists want to create animals to cure old diseases，but these new animals may also create new diseases. It will be a serious problem if the animals escape from the science laboratory and into nature. As these animals are not natural，they may  let loose  many new powerful diseases.

      As a result，RDNA research will create many solutions （解决方案），but it will also create many problems.

    To receive a Seniors Card you must be a permanent resident of Queensland and be aged 60 or over

    A Seniors Card is intended for all Queensland residents aged 60 and over The Seniors Card gives access to government concessions as well as discounts at participating businesses in Queensland，some interstate discount and access to the FREE Senior Shopper service．

  To receive a Seniors Card you must be a Queensland resident．Applicants for a Queensland

Seniors Card must have their principal place of residence in Queensland for at least six months of the year．Additionally this address must be registered with at least one of the following government agencies：

      A．participate in businesses                   

       B．provide discounts

      C．get free services everywhere               

       D．obtain some discounts or price reductions

     A．have a registered address                  

       B．make your income known

     C．be a Queenslander of at least sixty       

       D．five in Queensland for at least six months

Kidsin a Sudanese refugee（难民）camp stir up a cloud of dust as they kick around a football．

NBA superstar Tracy McGrady watches from a distance before offering to buy the kids a grass pitch for$1.000．

    Perhaps he sees a Ronaldinho rising up out of the African soil．Or maybe he just wants to do something—anything—to give these children some hope．But he is told，politely, that grass is not what the kids need．

    This scene appears in 3 Point，a new documentary, which shows the Houston Rockets star coming face—to－face with the reality that life is more than sport．

    McGrady,29，writes on his website that traveled to Africa because he was tired of only reading about it in news．“Who were the faces behind the statistics?” He said．“I needed to see it for myself.”

And he did．He stepped out of his large house and flew to a place torn to bits by war and famine．He slept in a tent．He kept away from minefields．He talked with people who have been

suffering．And he swallowed his pride．

    But no one should blame McGrady for wanting to buy the kids a pitch of grass．Sport gave him a chance，so perhaps he thought it would do the same for the refugees．

McGrady was eyed by NBA managers as a teenager and he didn’t bother going to college．Instead，he leaped right into the NBA．Since that move，basketball has given him a handsome living，but one very far removed from the lives of ordinary people

    As McGrady would learn in Africa，most people see sports as just a break from life’s difficulties．They don’t mistake it for 1ife itself．

Only McGrady knows how this Africa trip changed him，but I’d bet that，at the very least，

it has given him a new sense for what is truly meaningful．

   McGrady doesn’t own an NBA championship ring．He hasn’t risen to the heights of Kobe Bryant or Michael Jordan．But，perhaps，now he knows he doesn’t have to in order to truly make a difference in the world.

1．Which of the following is true according to the passage?

      A．While in Africa，McGrady behaved considerately．

     B．The trip to Africa has changed McGrady’s fife totally．

      C．McGrady should be blamed for wanting to buy kids grass．

      D．McGrady suffered as much as the African kids in his childhood．

2．What does the underlined word “eyed” in Paragraph 7 probably mean?

     A．Witnessed．    B．Selected．        C．Examined．         D．Researched．

3．After becoming an NBA player, McGrady        

      A．1eads a different life from ordinary people

     B．1ives far away from other people

      C．was once removed from NBA

     D．refused to go to college

4．In this passage，the writer mainly tells us        

     A．McGrady took a trip to Africa

     B．African people lead a poor life today

     C．African people don’t take sport for life

     D．McGrady offered his help to African children
