Sharks frighten most of us, but Daniel Weaver, a shark scientist, swims with them for a living! We asked him some questions about this unusual job.
So Daniel, what’s it like to be a shark scientist?
Well, it’s a great job. I often travel to faraway places like South Africa and Fiji to study sharks. On the other hand, a shark scientist sometimes does boring desk work, such as writing reports. Also, shark scientists don’t usually get paid a lot.
What qualities (品质) do you need to become a shark scientist?
Shark scientists need to be wise and strong. They enjoy working outdoors and they have to be cool and patient (耐心). They also have to be quite brave!
So do you think it’s a dangerous job?
Well, sharks have up to 15 rows of sharp teeth. However, sharks hardly attack (攻击) humans. There are over 350 kinds of sharks in the world and only about 10 are dangerous to us. In fact, dogs kill more people every year than sharks! Humans kill over 12 million sharks a year for food and sport!
How do you become a shark scientist?
A shark scientist usually studies Marine Science or Zoology at university. It’s also good to get some work experience in an aquarium (水族馆). In my opinion, I have the best job in the world!

We often forget that people in other countries eat different things from us.In some countries.for example, rice is a staple food(主食).In others,such as Britain and America,bread made from wheat is the most important food.In many African countries a kind of corn called maize(玉米)is the most important food.
Most countries have dishes that were first created there.In China such dishes as sweet and sour pork,shark’s fin soup,and flied rice are very common.In Thailand and India people eat 111any different curries.They like their food hot and spicy.In England,a favorite dish is roast beef The Italians eat pasta,which is a kind of noodle made from wheat.French food is very famous everywhere.It is often very rich.
In recent years fast food—sometimes called‘junk food’—has become very popular all over the world. It was invented in the USA,and the first fast food was the hamburger.Interestingly,a hamburger does not actually contain ham.It’s made from ground beef There are restaurants and takeout places selling hamburgers in most cities of the world.
The most international food,however,is Chinese.There probably isn’t a city anywhere that does not have at least one Chinese restaurant.This is because there are so many different dishes from so many different parts of China that there is something for everyone,whatever their favorite kind of food.
