SHARK CONSERVATION IN SOUTH AFRICA

Take a two-week trip that you will never forget as a volunteer with sharks on a beautiful stretch of South Africa’s coastline. Head out to sea to witness one of the world’s most powerful (and most misunderstood) creatures on this inspiring project, enjoying watching them from both above and below water.

The DAY-BY-DAY schedule

Day 1: Arrive in Cape Town on a Sunday. You will be collected from the airport and spend your first night in a guest house in the city centre.

Day 2: You will be collected bright and early from the guest house and taken down to the project. The drive takes about 90 minutes. You will receive a welcome and head out to sea to witness your first sharks!

Day 3+: Most days you will be out on the boat with the sharks, depending on weather. Help out with the full range of tasks on the boats, and in conservation initiatives on land too.

Last day: On the final day of your project you will be taken back to Cape Town for your onward travel.

The price is £ 829, including the voluntary work programme with accommodations, airport transfers, one night in a guest house in Cape Town, breakfasts daily and lunches when on the boats. Your trip can be extended at a cost of £ 375 per week.

It is an amazing experience! Some volunteers planned to stay for 4 weeks, extended to 6 weeks and still didn’t want to come home. If you’d like to chat about this holiday or need help, we’re very happy to help.

A clever technologist took steamboat inventions and turned them into the first commercial steamboat service.

Although Robert Fulton did not invent the steamboat, as is commonly believed, he played an important role in making steamboat travel a reality. He was born in Pennsylvania in 1765. As a young man, he set out to make his name as a portrait painter. His career took him to Europe and into the orbit of people with the power to support him politically and financially.

Fulton entered London society after he painted Benjamin Franklin’s portrait. While abroad, Fulton left the arts for a career in shipbuilding. He was interested in the recently-invented steam engine, and thought it could be used to power ships. Fulton’s vision was not original; many others had entered the field, and the unfortunate inventor John Fitch had built a working steamship already. But like Henry Ford, Fulton’s talent lay not in the invention but in the product’s application in the marketplace.

Fulton didn’t focus entirely on the steamboat. In 1804, he tested the first submarine successfully, which he had built for the British Royal Navy. His invention would make him a celebrity upon his return to the United States two years later. Fulton’s partner Robert Livingston obtained an exclusive license for steamboat services on New York’s Hudson River. It was time for Fulton to deliver.

To build an efficient, reliable steamboat, Fulton used a special English steam engine. The ship’s bottom was flat and its stern was square. The steamboat Clermont made its debut (首次亮相) on August 17, 1807, steaming up the river from New York to Albany, and it soon entered commercial services. The hilly terrain of New York made water transport faster than land transport, and Fulton’s boat — formerly known as the “North River Steamboat” — was a hit. Within five years, Fulton would be running services on six major rivers plus the Chesapeake Bay, and bring in great profits.

24. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?

A. Henry Ford was as unfortunate as John Fitch.

B. Henry Ford was talented in product application.

C. Fulton left the arts as he couldn’t support himself.

D. Fulton was the first to create a working steamship.

25. When did Fulton become a celebrity in the United States?

A. In 1804. B. In 1806. C. In 1807. D. In 1812.

26. What is mentioned about Clermont?

A. It operated for five years.

B. It earned Fulton much money.

C. It had an American steam engine.

D. It was not accepted by people at first.

27. What’s the best title of the text?

A. Robert Fulton and his Steamboat

B. Robert Fulton: A Great Inventor

C. Steamboats Changing Water Transport

D. The History of Commercial Steamboats

Journalists are the major group of people who make their living from writing. Many young people who see themselves as future novelists choose journalism as a way of earning a living while developing their writing skills. Although writing for newspapers and writing for books require different qualities, the aspiration (志向) to be a great writer is not one to be discouraged in a would-be journalist.

Most people want their work to be recognized by others. This helps to give it value. Some people also want themselves to be recognized, so that they have status (地位) in the eyes of society. It is not a bad motive to wish to be famous, but this must never become your main reason for being a journalist. You will not be a good journalist if you care more for impressing your audience than for serving their needs.

Knowing the power of the printed or spoken word or image, some people enter journalism for the power it will give them to influence people. There is a strong belief that journalists control the mass media but the best journalists recognize their role as servants of the people. There is a difference between the desire to influence events for your own sake, and the desire to do it for other people. You should never use journalism for selfish ends, but you can use it to improve the life of other people.

Curiosity is a natural part of most people’s characters and an important ingredient for any journalist. Lots of young men and women enter the profession with the desire to know more about the world without needing to specialize in limited fields of study. Most journalists tend to know a little bit about a lot of things, rather than a lot about one subject. Knowledge has many uses. It can simply help to make you a fuller and more interesting person. It can also give you power over people, especially people who do not have that particular knowledge. Always bear in mind that power can be used in a positive way to improve people’s lives.

28. What can we know from the first paragraph?

A. Journalists are most likely to become great writers.

B. Writing for newspapers is similar to writing for novels.

C. Most of the journalists make a living by writing books.

D. Journalism can be used as a means to improve writing.

29. Why do some people want themselves to be recognized?

A. To gain high position.  

B. To get great power.

C. To earn much wealth.  

D. To learn rich knowledge.

30. What is most necessary for journalists according to Paragraph 4?

A. Being specialized in a certain field.

B. Having a wide range of knowledge.

C. Being good at making friends with others.

D. Being able to speak a foreign language well.

31. What does the text mainly talk about?

A. The development of journalism.

B. The challenges journalists face now.

C. How to become a qualified journalist.

D. Why people choose a career in journalism.

D

A new report connects eating eggs to an increased risk of heart disease. The results follow several earlier studies that found eating eggs was generally healthy. The study collects data from six other earlier studies. It shows a 6 percent increased risk of heart disease when the number of eggs a person ate each day increased by half an egg.

Norrina Allen, an associate professor at Northwestern University said that, in the United States, eggs are generally one of the top sources of cholesterol (胆固醇) in a person’s daily food. People with higher levels of cholesterol in their food are at increased risk of the development of heart disease later in life. However, Allen added that she would not say that eggs are completely unhealthy. “I’m not saying that people should take them completely out of their food,” she said. “I’m just suggesting that people eat them in a proper amount.”

Some experts believe the new study does not prove that eggs are causing heart disease. “Cholesterol’s role in the development of heart disease has been discussed for more than 30 years,” said Bruemmer, an associate professor of medicine at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. “This study does have clear shortcomings, including self-reporting at a single time point,” he added.

Bruemmer said, “Eggs in moderation (适度) are probably acceptable from a nutritional standpoint.” “Moderation,” he added, “is less than one egg a day, including eggs in foods such as bread”.

Holly Andersen, a doctor at the NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center, agrees that the study has “real shortcomings”. One problem Andersen has with the study is that a lot of the egg-eating people in the study also appeared to be eating much meat and processed meat. “If you’re taking a lot of processed meat, it doesn’t matter how many eggs you’re eating,” Andersen said.

Also, Andersen said, “The study can only show there is a relation between eggs eating and heart disease. But it cannot prove eggs are the cause of the disease. It may just be that people eating a lot of eggs are also taking a lot of bacon.”

32. What does Norrina Allen agree with?

A. Eggs are completely unhealthy.

B. Eggs contain the most cholesterol.

C. Eggs should be eaten in a right amount.

D. Eggs have no connection with heart disease.

33. What is Bruemmer’s attitude towards the study?

A. Interested.  B. Doubtful. C. Concerned. D. Hopeful.

34. What can we learn from Holly Andersen’s words?

A. Eggs and meat cannot be eaten together.

B. Processed meat may cause heart disease.

C. Processed meat should be avoided.

D. The study is supported by evidence.

35. What’s the best title of the text?

A. Do eggs cause heart disease?

B. Are eggs the top source of cholesterol?

C. What’s the proper amount of eggs eaten?

D. Is the cholesterol to blame for heart disease?

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

On one cold night, Kunal, Veer Singh’s little brother lay in the hut (棚屋), burning with fever and shooting pain in his stomach that was getting worse by the minute. Veer Singh was only about 11 years old, but was a happy and cheerful boy. He was a child of the jungle and his brother was about six years younger than him. He had other brothers and sisters, who unfortunately had died of disease.

His mother brought some hot water, dipped some towels inside, and placed it on Kunal’s stomach to reduce the pain. Veer Singh could see that she was in great pain and fear of losing another child, but she was trying hard not to show it. However, the towels were of no use. Veer Singh’s mother said that he ought to be carried to the nearest hospital, knowing that Kunal was in danger, and needed medical attention at the earliest.

The people in the village considered that the hospital was the last resort, and those who were sent there rarely returned alive. Veer Singh told his mother that he would go and get his father back, who was out hunting for food. But his mother asked him to stay back, as it would take days to find him. Veer Singh’s father was well known far and wide as Veer Singh Bahadur or Veer Singh the Brave. He was a famous hunter and hence the title. He had survived two tiger attacks and saved a partner from a tiger attack. He had big scars on his back, head, and shoulders, where claws had opened his flesh. Whenever there was a hunting expedition in the village, people wanted Veer Singh Bahadur to be with them. His mere presence gave them tremendous amount of confidence and courage.

Now he, along with the other strong men from the village was in an expedition. It was unlikely that Veer Singh would find someone to help him to take Kunal to the hospital. Kunal lay on the ground, crying in pain and Veer Singh knew that something had to be done immediately. Otherwise, he might lose another brother.

Dear Mark,

I’m writing to talk about the problem of food safety nowadays. To reduce costs and make more profits, some food companies don’t take necessary safety measures to guarantee the food quality. As a result, more and more low-quality food flows into the market, doing great harm to consumers’ health.

In my opinion, food is essential to human beings. We could not live without safe food. If no notice is taken of food safety, the health of the whole nation will suffer. So I call on the whole society to take action and put an end to the low-quality food. Only in this way can we live a healthier life.

Yours,

Li Hua

参考范文：

Paragraph 1:

Veer Singh told his mother he would take Kunal to the hospital. His mother knew there was no other choice, as she had to stay behind and look after the cattle and fields. Otherwise, they would all starve. His mother helped Veer Singh lift Kunal on his back. Then he slowly started his journey. The hospital was about 50 miles away, and Veer Singh hoped to take a shortcut through the forest and struggled through two rivers. This might reduce the distance by half. He also hoped that he might get a lift along the way in a carriage.

Paragraph 2:

He was afraid to cross the forest in the dark. It was dark, and wild animals would be searching for food. Night fell and there was a full moon. He saw some bear and tiger tracks, so he moved carefully. He was afraid and started walking fast, thinking of his brave father. Finally, he had reached the end of the forest when he saw a farmer. The farmer asked Veer Singh whether he needed help and took them to the nearest hospital. Eventually, his brother survived.
