5.Fabien Cousteau was born with deep love for the ocean.His grandfather and his father were ocean (41)explorers (explorer) and documentary filmmakers.Today,Fabien follows in his family's footstep to protect the planet's (42)endangered (danger) ocean life and tries (43)to strike (strike) a balance between environmental problems and market economies.
Fabien is well known for his study of sharks.During 2000-2002,he created a TV special based on the shark attacks that (44)occurred( occurr) along the New Jersey shoreline in 1916.Then in 2003-2006,(45)with the help of a large crew,Fabien created a shark submarine that enabled( 46)him(he) to put himself inside the shark world,providing people with a rare view of the mysterious and often misunderstood creatures.
For the next four years,Fabien was part of a series called Ocean Adventures,(47)which offered a rare look into some of the most fantastic ocean species and environments.
In 2010,Fabien started a nonprofit project to help restore water ecosystems by replanting key ocean species.From June 1to July 2,2014,Fabien and his team spent 31days underwater to discover (48)how climate change and pollution are affecting the oceans.Fabien's Mission 31broke new ground by going deeper,longer and farther.
Fabine is (49)currently( current) working on a documentary film about the adventures of Mission 31,as well as (50)building (build) an Ocean Learning Center to provide children around the world with the opportunity to learn about oceans.
6.When Scotsman Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone in 1876,it was a revolution in communication.Over the last two decades a new means of spoken communication has emerged:the mobile phone.
The modern mobile phone is a more complex version of the two-way radio.Traditional two-way radio was a very limited means of communication.As soon as the users moved out of range of each other's broadcast area,the signal was lost.In the 1940s,researchers began experimenting with the idea of using a number of radio masts (天线杆)located around to pick up signals from two-way radios.A caller would always be within range of one of the masts; when he or she moved too far away from one mast,the next mast would pick up the signal.(Scientists referred to each mast's reception area as being a separate"cell"; this is why in.many countries mobile phones are called"cellphones".)
The first real mobile telephone call was made in 1973by Dr Martin Cooper.As soon as his invention was completed,he tested it by calling another scientist to announce his success.Within a decade,mobile phones became available to the public.They have changed the way we do a lot of things.One powerful feature is the Short Message Service (SMS) or text message.It's the perfect communication method for the busy modern lifestyle.Going to be late?Send a text message!The text message has changed the way we write in English.The language construction became less strict.Traditional rules of grammar and spelling are much less important when you're sitting on the bus,hurriedly typing"Will B 15mm late-C U@the bar.(I will be 15minutes late to see you at the
bar.) Sorry!".
Over the last few years mobiles have become more and more advanced.We have seen the instruction of cameras,global positioning system and Internet access.
Alexander Graham Bell would be surprised if he could see how far the science of telephone has progressed in less than 150years.If he were around today,he might say:"That's gr8(great)!But I'm busy rite now(I am very busy right now).Will call U2nite(I will call you tonight.)."
