He was 11 years old and often went fishing. On the day before bass (鲈鱼) season opened, he and his father were fishing early in the evening.

When his pole doubled over, he knew something huge was on the other end. His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully worked the fish. Finally, he lifted the tired fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass.

Lighting a match, the father looked at his watch. It was 10 pm — two hours before the season opened. He looked at the fish, then at the boy, saying, “You’ll have to put it back, Son.”

Looking around, he saw no other fisherman or boats. Even so, the boy could tell from his father’s voice that the decision couldn’t be changed. He threw the huge bass into the water. The boy thought that he would never again see such a big fish.

That was 34 years ago. Today the boy is a successful architect (建筑师) in New York. He often takes his son to fish at the same place.

And he was right. He has never again caught such a large fish as the one he got that night long ago. But he does see that same fish… again and again… every time he has an ethical (道德的) decision to make. As his father had taught him, ethics are simple matters of right and wrong. It is only the practice of ethics that is difficult.

Seeing the boy skillfully pulling a big fish out of the water, the father felt __________.

A. admiring                                                     B. nervous

C. worried                                                       D. shocked

On seeing that the big fish was a bass, __________.

A. they discussed how to deal with the fish

B. the boy threw the bass back into the water gladly

C. the father made a decision that the fish must be set free

D. they were worried that other fisherman might know what they had done

From the passage, we can learn that __________.

A. the father was an architect

B. the son never forgets the lesson

C. the father used to catch a big bass

D. the father made his son feel regretful all his life

The passage mainly wants to tell us that __________.

A. an ethical decision is not difficult to make

B. it is hard to tell right from wrong sometimes

C. fishing helps you to make right ethical decisions

D. it’s easier to make an ethical decision than to carry it out

For over one hundred and fifty years,Americans of all social classes have worn blue jeans.      _1  Whether they are worn for work or for fashion today.Strauss’ invention continues to be popular not only among Americans but also among people around the world.

Levi Strauss was born in Germany in 1829.  2 He grew up in Kentucky before moving to New York in 1847.?Before becoming an American citizen and moving to the West in 1853,Strauss worked in his brother’s dry goods business.This gave him a chance to produce his famous invention. After the gold rush of 1949,Strauss decided to move to the West to seek his fortunes.

Strauss did not want to be a person who searched an area for minerals.Instead,he knew he could make a good living by selling supplies to the miners.At first,he planned to sell sewing supplies and cloth.  3 When he heard miners complaining that their clothes were easily broken or they usually tore their pockets during mining,he decided to use a special fabric to make pants for the miners.These pants proved so popular that he quickly ran out of materials to make more.

In 1873,Strauss received a letter from a Jewish tailor named Jacob Davis who had invented a process of connecting pockets with copper rivets(铆钉).This made the pants last a long time.Because Davis did not have the money to patent his idea,he offered to share it with Strauss if Strauss would agree to pay for the patent.    4  .
