      You can find out many things about a tree by studying its rings.
      Each year, from top to bottom, a tree grows a new layer (层) of wood around itself. If you cut across a
tree trunk or branches, you would see that these layers of wood look like rings. By counting tree rings, you can
tell how old the tree is. If you count ten rings, for example, the tree is ten years old. 
      Looking at the picture shown above, you can see that each tree ring has a dark part and a light part. The
light part wood grows in the spring, the dark part wood in winter. Look also, that some rings in the picture are
wide and others are narrow (窄). Trees grow aide rings during the years when they get a lot of water and
sun-light. By examining tree rings, you can tell what the weather may was like many years ago.
      Giant sequoia (红杉) trees, such as the one in the photo above, grow in north-western California. Some of
these sequoias have more than 3000 tree rings. Can you guess how old such a tree would be?
1. According to the story, a tree ring is a ______.
[     ]
A: branch
B: layer of wood
C: giant sequoia
D: ten years old
2. A tree ring is added to a tree _______.
[     ]
A: every ten years
B: every year
C: every 3000 years
D: every two years
3. The light part of a tree ring ______.
[     ]
A: gets dark in the winter.
B: tells the tree's age.
C: grows in the spring.
D: gets light every year.
4. From the story, you can tell that ______.
[     ]
A: all tree rings look the same.
B: most trees do not grow tree rings.
C: tree rings add to the tree's width.
D: most of the trees grow rings.
5. Look at the drawing above. If this were a slice (片) from a tree trunk, how old would the tree be?

Ever thought of moving to a new country? How about starting a new country? Patri Friedman is planning to do just that. He left Google years ago to set up the Seasteading Institute. And his dream is to build seasteads-----floating micro-nations in the middle of the ocean.
So, what will life on a seastead be like? Probably a bit like life on a cruise liner (游轮), but much larger, with shops, gyms, swimming pools, schools and other areas. In fact, the early seasteads may actually be specially-rebuilt cruise liners. But as science advances, Friedman believes they’ll become more like floating cities, with several hundred people.
Seasteading raises a lot of questions. First of all, how will the new countries make money? The Seasteading Institute has suggested several money-making ideas, including ocean-based theme parks, casinos (赌场) and fish farming. There’s also the questions of safety. With storms, typhoons and pirates (海盗) , the high seas are a dangerous place. However, the Institute says that it can stand bad weather and prevent crimes with its well-designed systems.
So, is this just a day dream? Well, maybe not. One of the people behind the project is Peter Thiel. He founded PayPal and was one of the first investors (投资者) in Facebook. So far, he’s donated $ 500,000 to the project.
And Friedman isn’t wasting any time. He recently announced the creation of the Poseidon Award. This will be given to the first seastead with fifty people. Friedman is hoping to hand out the award in 2015.
小题1:Where did Friedman use to work?
A．In Facebook.B．In Seastead Institute .C．In PayPal.D．In Google.
小题2:A future seastead may be most likely to look like ___________________.
A．a cruise linerB．a floating cityC．a theme parkD．a fishing farm
小题3:What can we infer from the passage?
A．Friedman is planning to move to a new country.
B．Friedman is worried about the safety of seasteads.
C．Friedman has got some supporters for his project.
D．Friedman has already won the Poseidon Award.
小题4:Which of the following can be the best titles of this passage?
A．Seasteading: a new idea of living
B．Seasteading: a wild way of farming
C．Peter Thiel: a man behind the project
D．Patri Friedman: a crazy day dreamer
