About this trip

John Cabot had set sail looking for a new trade route for Asia, when he landed in Cape Bonavista. Clearly he felt this barren desolate landscape could provide this, so he claimed it for its potential and so began the rise of the British Empire.

Newfoundland is the most easterly point in North America and was Britain’s first overseas colony until 1949, when it became part of Canada. It’s roughly the size of England and Craig’s journey by camper van or RV (recreational vehicle) took in just a small part of the island called the Bonavista Peninsula.

First stop was the tiny fishing port of Keels to stock up for the journey ahead. There’s a long standing love affair between Newfoundlanders and cod. The seas off the Newfoundland coast were once the richest cod fishing grounds in the world, attracting fishermen from all over Europe. Many settled, establishing these coastal villages known locally as outports.

An hour’s drive down the coast is the town of Bonavista, where Craig met up with retired fisherman, Wilson Hayward. He told Craig how the landscape used to lie, and described the peculiarities of the language and accents in the area. There’s a different language in every bay.

B. informs people that the island is moving away from where it used to be

Indonesia’s coral reefs(珊瑚礁) are in trouble. Coral mining, Industrial pollution and poisonous agricultural runoff all play a role in their destruction, but the fishermen have been the worst offenders. They not only bomb fish but also poison them with cyanide, an equally destructive practice. The fishermen are also among the biggest potential victims(受害者). Two thirds of Indonesia’s 7, 000 coastal villages are close to coral reefs and thus depend for their livelihood on the harvest of reef fish. The disappearing reefs are already leading to a dramatic decline in the productivity of coastal fisheries and to increasing fights among fishermen.

Indonesia’s reefs are vast – they cover 51, 000 square kilometers, surround 17, 500 islands and stretch 3,500 kilometers – but they are not infinite. Many foreign experts and Indonesians fear that the region’s entire marine environment could be seriously damaged if the reefs keep dying at their present rate. “The overall picture is depressing,” says Ian Dutton, Indonesian director of an environmental group.

Depressing, but not hopeless. Despite the destruction, environmentalists have in recent years made significant progress in changing the hearts and minds of the fishermen. Working closely with local Indonesian authorities in North Sulawesi and less populated eastern Indonesia, where most of the country’s reefs are located, they have succeeded in preventing destructive fishing practices and coral mining from overwhelming the reefs.

Increasing numbers of fishermen are waking up to the threat and protecting the life-sustaining coral before it’s too late. Nuhung, a 56-year-old fisherman, says, “I always knew blast fishing was harmful. Then I suddenly realized that by bombing the reefs I was destroying not only my own but my children’s future.”

The fishermen are named “worst offenders” because          .

A. they defend their rights of mining the coral reefs too eagerly

B. they wake up too late to realize the terrible situation

C. they use the fishing ways, which destroy the coral reefs

D. they pretend to follow the government’s rules

In the text the author        .  

A. presents us some facts and people’s opinions as well

B. shows that he’s worried about the situation, but still feels a little hopeful

C. says he’s delighted and meanwhile, depressed

D. disagrees with what’s being done and gives suggestions

The underlined word “infinite” in the 2nd paragraph most probably means      .

A. incomplete      B. short        C. unfit        D. limitless

Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the text?

A. But for the fishermen’s protection, the reefs would disappear soon.

B. More and more fishermen have realized their mistakes.

C. Without the coral reefs, the fishermen would have nothing for their livelihood.

D. Some practical measures have been taken to stop the situation worsening.

This passage may be taken from______.

A. a magazine      B. a novel      C. a newspaper       D. a storybook

Sharks are among the oldest animals on Earth. There are hundreds of kinds of sharks. Most are about two meters long. The dogfish shark, however, is less than twenty centimeters in length. A shark has an extremely good sense of smell. It can find small amounts of substances in water, such as blood, body liquids and chemicals produced by animals. 71 Sharks eat fish, other sharks, and plants that live in the ocean.
Sharks grow slowly. About forty percent of all sharks lay eggs. 72 Some sharks carry their young inside their bodies as humans do. Some sharks are not able to reproduce until they are twenty years old．Most reproduce only every two years. And they give birth to fewer than ten young sharks. For this reason, over-fishing of sharks is of special danger to the future of the animal.
Sharks are important for the world’s oceans. They eat injured and diseased fish. Their hunting activities mean that the numbers of other fish in ocean waters do not become too great. 73.
People hunt sharks for sport, food, medicine and their skin. Experts say the international market for some kinds of sharks has increased because many parts of a shark are valuable.
Collectors pay thousands of dollars for the jaws of a shark. 74 The skin of a shark can be used like leather.
In Asia, people enjoy a kind of soup made from shark fins. Experts say a fisherman can earn a lot of money for even one kilogram of shark fins. Sharks are among the oldest animals on Earth, but some sharks are in danger of disappearing from Earth.75.

A．Shark liver oil is a popular source of Vitamin A
B．This protects the plants and other forms of life that exist in the oceans
C．Sharks are valuable to us and we can make full use of them
D．These powerful senses help sharks find their food
E．If too many sharks in one area are killed, that group of sharks may never return to normal population levels
F． his is a threat to other forms of life in the ocean.
G．The others give birth to live young

Reading is not the only way to gain knowledge of the work in the past. There is another large reservoir (知识库) which may be called experience, and the college students will find that every craftsman (工匠) has something he can teach and will generally teach gladly to any college student who does not look down upon them. The information from them differs from that in textbooks and papers chiefly in that its theoretical (理论的) part -- the explanations of why things happen -- is frequently quite fantastic (神奇的) . But the demonstration (示范) and report of what happens, and how it happens are correct even if the reports are in completely unscientific terms. Presently the college students will learn, in this case also, what to accept and what to reject. One important thing for a college student to remember is that if Aristotle could talk to the fisherman, so can he.

　　Another source of knowledge is the vast store of traditional practices handed down from father to son , or mother to daughter, of old country customs ,of folklore (风俗). All this is very difficult for a college student to examine, for much knowledge and personal experience is needed here to separate good plants from wild grass.The college students should learn to realize and remember how much of real value science has found in this wide, confused wilderness and how often scientific discoveries of what had existed in this area long age.

1. In the last paragraph the phrase "this wide, confused wilderness" refers to _____.

A．personal experience

B．wild weeds among good plants

C．the information from the parents

D．the vast store of traditional practices

2. Which of the following statements is supported by the passage?

A．The college students have trouble separating good plants from wild grass

B．Craftsman’s experience is usually unscientific

C．The contemptuous (傲慢的) college students will receive nothing from craftsmen

D．Traditional practices are as important as experience for the college students

3. The author advises the college students to ______ .

A．be contemptuous to the craftsman

B．be patient in helping the craftsman with scientific terms

C．learn the craftsman’s experience by judging it carefully

D．gain the craftsman’s experience without rejection

4. The main idea of this passage is about ________.

A．what to learn from the parents             B．how to gain knowledge

C．why to learn from craftsman               D．how to deal with experience
