11.There are still many things that Peter Cooke would like to try his hand at-paper-making and feather-work are on his list.For the moment though,he will stick to the skill he has been delighted to perfect over the past ten years;making delicate and unusual objects out of shells.
   As he leads me round his apartment showing me his work,he points to a pair of shell-covered ornaments(装饰品) above a fireplace.‘I shan't be at all bothered if people don't buy them because I have got so used to them,and to me they're adorable.I never meant to sell my work commercially.Some friends came to see me about five years ago and said,"You must have an exhibition-people ought to see these.We'll talk to a man who owns an art gallery".'The result was an exhibition in London,at which 70 percent of the objects were sold.His second exhibition opened at the gallery yesterday.Considering the enormous prices the pieces command-around£2,000 for the ornaments-an empty space above the fireplace would seem a small sacrifice for Cooke to make.
"I do wish,though,"says Cooke,‘that I'd taken this up a lot earlier,because then I would have been able to produce really wonderful things-at least the potential would have been there.Although the ideas are still there and I'm doing the best I can now,I'm more limited physically than I was when I started.Still,the work that he has managed to produce is a long way from the common shell constructions that can be found in seaside shops.‘I have a miniature(微型的)mind'he says,and this has resulted in boxes covered in thousands of tiny shells,little shaded pictures made from shells and baskets of astonishingly realistic flowers.
Cooke's quest for beautiful,and especially tiny,shells has taken him further than his Norfolk shore:to France,Thailand,Mexico,South Africa and the Philippines,to name but a few of the beaches where he has lain on his stomach and looked for beauties to bring home.

B.He hopes to work with other materials in the future.
C.He has written about his love of making shell objects.

1.If you've been married to the world's loudest snorer(打鼾者) for nearly four decades,you're either a saint(圣人) or you're deaf.
Julie Switzer is a little of both.On July 4,the 61-year-old British homemaker will celebrate her 40th anniversary with her husband Mel,a taxi driver whose snoring has been measured at 92.5decibels-louder than a police siren.
Until he found a treatment,flight attendants would ask him not to sleep on planes.Eight of his neighbors sold their homes in one 10-year period.Only his wife stood by his side.
"My wife and I love each other,"he says."And she is deaf in one ear."
Julie's condition had no connection to her husband's loud snoring.But even with decreasing hearing,she found it hard to sleep-and though to get up each day to get their two boys off to school."I just thought most men sound like an electric saw(电锯) in the bedroom,"she says.
After two decades of sleeplessness,Julie entered Mel in a local contest,sponsored by a British newspaper in 1984,to find the loudest snoring husband in the United Kingdom.Until then,Mel had not realized the scope of his snore.
The contest turned out to be the best thing she ever did.In one brave stroke,Julie turned her husband into an international celebrity(名人).Suddenly,she and Mel were flying to Japan,so that doctors could measure his snoring on national TV.
"I guess there are better reasons to be famous,"Mel says."But if people are sending you to Tokyo,why fight it?"
The folks at Guinness were quick to contact him,and all the attention brought hundreds of would-be remedies-including one that finally worked.
About four years ago,New York businessman Robert Rose gave Mel a Chinese herbal concoction(草药) that he now markets throughout North America as Y-snore.
Y-snore changed the Switzers'life.Just a few drops in the nose and Mel is silent as a lamb.Finally,a peaceful night for his wife.

68.Julie Switzer is considered somewhat a saint becauseB.

B.she tolerated the loudest snoring in the world for nearly 40years
C.she has been married to Mel for 40years
D.she turned a deaf ear to her husband's snoring
69.What did Julie think of her husband's snoring before she entered him in a local contest?D
A.She thought it was as loud as a police siren.
B.She felt bored and extremely angry at him.
C.She was anxious to find a cure for her husband's snoring.
D.She thought it was just a normal phenomenon.

C.she began to know how loud her husband's snoring was
D.she managed to prove to the world that her husband was a brave man
