    Deep sea fishing, sometimes called sport or big game fishing, is a form of fishing. This type of fishing can be a real challenge and is also meant to be enjoyable. 1.. Deep sea fishing is practiced in many regions of the world.

2.. Big game fish like the open ocean because it provides them with lots of room and lots of prey. Often, a deep sea fishing expedition will travel beyond the sight of land to reach fishing grounds.

Once the boat arrives on site, a number of techniques can be used to fish. Some people like to use nets, while others prefer to spread bait in the water to attract fish, and to hook them individually. Spear fishing is also possible with some species. 3.. The main reason is that big game fish can escape in the early stages of the process.

If a fish is landed, there are a number of options for dealing with the fish. Some people take the fish home to eat. Others think that the catch is the fun part. 4..

Going on a fishing charter (租船 )can be an enjoyable experience for people who like fishing and being out on the water. 5., although it is also possible to bring your own equipment.

A.Deep sea fishing is adventurous

B.Besides, it provides a source of food

C.So they make the most of time on charters

D.Fishermen have to be strong and quick on their feet

E.Many charters provide all of the equipment people will need

F.The goal with deep sea fishing is to reach deeper parts of the ocean

G.They set the fish free afterwards so that it can live to fight another day

    Coral reefs are a necessary part of sea life and support it by providing shelter and habitat to various organisms. They also supply and recycle nutrients as well as enable a fish population to boom, along with other species, for a healthy and diverse ecosystem.

However, the rise in average water temperatures due to climate change has resulted in more frequent and extended “coral bleaching(珊瑚白化)” events that damage their health, causing fish and other sea species to abandon them.

In order to repair this delicate ecosystem, scientists from the UK and Australia conducted a study that involved using speakers underwater near damaged coral reefs to make them sound healthy and attract fish, potentially starting the natural recovery press of coral reefs and their dependent life forms.

The location for this experiment was the Great Barrier Reef in the Coral Sea, found alongside the east coast of Queensland Australia, which is famous to have the largest coral reef system in the world that’s 2, 300 kilometers long and covers an area of nearly 344, 400 square kilometers. By using loudspeakers to reproduce such sounds, areas of dead coral reefs were found to attract twice as many fish, compared to places where no sounds were played. These returning fish could help in the recovery of this ecosystem by giving those areas of coral a chance of new life.

“Fish are important for coral reefs to function as healthy ecosystems. Increasing fish populations in this way could help to start natural recovery process, reducing the damage we’re seeing on many coral reefs around the world. Of course, attracting fish to a dead reef won’t bring it back to life automatically, but the recovery process relies on fish that clean the reef to make space for corals to regrow.” said Mark Meekan.

    Picasso paintings regularly sell for millions of dollars, making it unlikely that the majority of art lovers will ever own a work by the famous Spanish painter. But Care International, a Paris-based nonprofit is offering individuals around the world the chance to acquire a Picasso original for just $111 and contributes to a worthy cause at the same time.

As Caroline Elbaor reports for artnet News, Aider les Autres is offering tickets for Nature Morte, a 1921 Picasso painting describing a newspaper and a glass of absinthe(苦艾酒). The painting, which is on display at the Picasso Museum in Paris, has been valued at SI. I million. But one lucky winner will be able to obtain the painting for a mere small amount of that price.

By selling the Picasso painting at an extremely discounted rate, Aider les Autres hopes to raise a lot of money for Care International. Around 200, 000 rale tickets (抽奖券)are available for purchase, meaning the organization will be able to raise up to $22 million. Some of the money will be used to buy the painting and cover other costs, but the majority will be donated to the charity.

Care International plans to use the donated money to build and restore wells, washing facilities and toilets in Cameroon, Madagascar and Morocco. Having easy access to clean water not only reduces the risk of water borne diseases, but also reduces the time that people and particularly women and girls have to spend walking to clean water sources.

“Besides the huge waste of time, women and girls are at risk as they walk alone along remote paths and tracks,” Aider les Autres explains. “Girls are also more likely to miss school because of lack of hygiene (卫生). By providing clean water, we will increase girls' attendance by many thousands.”

1.Where are art lovers likely to get a Picasso original at a very low price?

A.From the lucky winner. B.From Caroline Elbaor.

C.From the Picasso Museum. D.From Care International.

2.What will most money from raffle tickets be used to do?

A.Buy tickets for art overs.

B.Buy the painting Nature Morte.

C.Contribute to charitable projects.

D.Give away to the lucky winner.

3.Why will Care International build wells in Morocco?

A.To promote its status. B.To store more clean water.

C.To improve people’s health. D.To increase girls 'learning time.

4.Where is this text most likely from?

A.A personal diary. B.A news report.

C.A book review. D.A science fiction novel.

    Founder Lia Grimanis herself experienced homelessness as a teen growing up in Toronto. She got the idea for Up With Women when she received career coaching while working for a teel company. Unlike consultation, where clients work through issues from their pasts, coaching is about the future.

She realized that women who really needed professional development help from a coach could never actually afford it. “All of our clients are living below the poverty line, but some coaches are charging $350 to $600 an hour.” she says.

Up With Women matches participants with certificated career coaches who provide one-on-one sessions twice a month for one year. The strategy is working. So far, the organization has helped more than 400 women. In the 2016-2017 group, roughly 70 percent of them saw an increase in their income, On average, they were making S 12, 383 more per year than women still on the organization’s waiting list. While it’s harder to measure confidence levels. Grimanis sees an increase there, too. And those difficult to quantify results can be the most powerful.

Harmeet Toor, Up With Women’s director of operations and programs, was once a client herself. For Toor, one of the most powerful parts of her coaching experience was learning to shed the idea that she should limit her goals.

Five months into Toor’s coaching sessions. she 'd found a place to live. By the eight-month mark, she 'd landed a job at a doctor’s office. And now she’s figuring out how to help others like Smith, who was finally able to start a law school in 2018.

“I owe it to Up With Women for helping me get here,” Smith says. “Of course, I have the drive and the determination, but I wouldn’t be in the law school if I didn’t have that coaching.”

1.What do we know about Lia Grimanis?

A.She is a caring woman. B.She has a sense of humor.

C.She makes lots of money. D.She is born in a rich family.

2.What does the underlined word “shed” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?

A.Get used to. B.Make sense.

C.Get rid of. D.Hold on to.

3.What does Smith think played a key role in her success?

A.A tech company. B.Up With Women.

C.Her determination. D.Her family’s support.

4.What is the text mainly talking about?

A.How winery should develop their own career.

B.How-women should balance their family and career.

C.How Up With Women is set up with the help of Harmeet Toor.

D.How a Toronto woman helps other women pull themselves out of poverty.

Different attitudes lead to different results. Those who take positively attitudes towards work will be rewarded. Taking Li Kang as an example. He is my classmate. He puts his heart into his study，so he had become a top student. With his hard work，he will succeed in entering into his ideal university.

    Researchers have been looking forward to using tiny flying robots to settle important tasks. The various machines could be used to help astronauts on space missions, and even to help bees with plant pollination(授粉). However, fitting the heavy electric equipment that is used to power and control the wings into the tiny robot has been challenging. Now thanks to RoboBee X-Wing—the world’s lightest aerial vehicle that can fly not tied to a power source.

Made by Harvard researchers, the insect-inspired robot weighs only 259 milligrams, has four wings whose distance is 3.5 centimeters, and stands 6.5 centimeters high. Its four small wings, which can flap up(拍动) to 170 times a second, are controlled by actuators(驱动器). They become small when the electricity passes through them. Six small solar cells, fitted above the wings to prevent them from disturbing the flight, provide the power.

RoboBee X-Wing is powered by six solar cells. To test its flying abilities, the team, led by doctor Noah Jafferis and PhD student Elizabeth Helbling, exposed the RoboBee X-Wing’s solar cells to LED lighting. To their delight, the tiny robot’s wings began to flap, and it rose, keeping a flight for about half a second. Though the robot lost its flight ability as soon as the power source was turned off, its short flight was cheered for its huge effect on the future of tiny flying robots.

However, though the current RoboBee X-Wing is a step in the right direction, it is not quite ready for main time. The researchers also hope to experiment with other power sources, such as batteries, sun light or radio frequency signals, and to add more advanced “brains” and sensor systems to navigate and complete tasks independently.

1.What can we know about small flying robots according to the first paragraph?

A.They are made to do ordinary tasks by scientists.

B.They can be used only for very dangerous task.

C.They can be powered directly by the energy of the sun.

D.It’s not easy to fit the heavy electric equipment into them.

2.Why is RoboBee X-Wing considered having a big effect on the future of tiny flying robots?

A.Because it is ready for the instant use.

B.Because it can take off and fly out of control.

C.Because it can fly not tied to a power source.

D.Because it can settle important tasks.

3.Which of the following is TRUE about RoboBee X-Wing?

A.It can’t be used in crowded places.

B.It can be used for giving directions.

C.It can use radio signals to power itself.

D.It still can’t be used widely at present.

4.In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?

    The United States has about 475,000 school buses ---all painted yellow. Each day they carry more than 25,000,000 children, half of all schoolchildren in the country. But these buses, on average, use four liters of diesel （柴油） fuel to travel less than sixteen kilometers. When the school year began last fall, diesel averaged 55 cents a liter nationally. The price nearly doubled, to a dollar and 8 cents, by the end of school in June.

Bob Riley speaks for the American School Bus Council. He says fuel prices for schools are not much lower than others have to pay. As a result, schools are looking for ways to reduce transportation costs. Bus routes are being redrawn or, in some cases, canceled. Some areas are buying buses that use natural gas or other alternative fuels. Other steps include fewer field trips and less travel by sports teams. And some school districts may end any bus service not required by law.

Studies show that school buses are the safest form of transportation to and from school. The American School Bus Council says cuts in bus service are bad for children and possibly the environment. It says removing buses from the road will mean an increase in other vehicles transporting students. Spokesman Bob Riley says another concern is that reducing bus services might reduce attendance.

But it could also get more children to walk or bicycle to school. And that would surely make people happy at the National Center for Safe Routes to School. More kids walking or biking safely to school is the aim of a three-year-old federal program, part of an international movement. The goal is to increase physical activity and reduce air pollution. The United States will celebrate Walk to School Day on October eighth this year. But for some students, high fuel prices could make every day a walk-to-school day.

1.What does this passage mainly tell us?

A.High fuel prices’ influences on school buses.

B.New measures to transport school students.

C.The safest form of student transportation.

D.The origin of Walk to School Day.

2.What can we learn from Paragraph 3?

A.Cuts in bus service will have negative results.

B.The US government is encouraging cuts in bus services.

C.The US schools are searching for the safest transportation means.

D.Reducing bus service will do a lot of good to the environment.

3.In order to cut down transportation cost, many schools take the following measures EXCEPT__.

A.changing some bus routes

B.stopping some bus routes

C.asking parents to drive children to and from school

D.using other types of fuels

4.The National Center for Safe Routes to School encourages more children to walk or bike to school in order to ____.

A.save more fuels and diesel for the country

B.keep the children safe on their way to school

C.make the children live a simple life

D.keep the children healthy and the environment clean

    Most people know that Marie Curie was the first woman to win the Nobel Prize, and the first person to win it twice. However, few people know that she was also the mother of a Nobel Prize winner.

Born in September, 1897, Irene Curie was the first of the Curies’ two daughters. Along with nice other children whose parents were also famous scholars, Irene studied in their own school, and her mother was one of the teachers. She finished her high school education at the College of Sévigné in Paris.

Irene entered the University of Paris in 1914 to prepare for a degree in mathematics and physics. When World War I began, Irene went to help her mother, who was using X-ray facilities (设备) to help save the lives of wounded soldiers. Irene continued the work by developing X-ray facilities in military hospitals in France and Belgium. Her services were recognised in the form of a Military Medal by the French government.

In 1918, Irene became her mother’s assistant at the Curie Institute. In December 1924, Frederic Joliot joined the Institute, and Irene taught him the techniques required for his work. They soon fell in love and were married in 1926. Their daughter Helene was born in 1927 and their son Pierre five years later.

Like her mother, Irene combined family and career. Like her mother, Irene was awarded a Nobel Prize, along with her husband, in 1935. Unfortunately, also like her mother, she developed leukemia because of her work with radioactivity (辐射能). Irene Joliot-Curie died from leukemia on March 17, 1956.

1.Why was Irene Curie awarded a Military Medal?

A. Because she received a degree in mathematics.

B. Because she contributed to saving the wounded.
