Twenty Thousand Miles under the Sea is a fascinating tale of adventure with Captain Nemo(“No Name”) in his submarine(海下的) ship, the Nautilus. Jules Verne had been around ships and boats most of his life. But his first trip to America in 1867 was his first ocean voyage. The ship which carried Jules Verne from his native France was the Great Eastern, which was used to lay the first successful Atlantic cable(电缆) linking England and America the year before. Verne made the most of his opportunity. With his notebook, he followed the crew members around. What kind of submarine life had they caught? What kind of fish had they seen? What seaweeds? What shells? What did they know about the ocean's currents(洋流)? Its channels? Its depths and shallows? Six weeks later Verne was home again with his notebook filled on his voyage. He went aboard his little boats where he always wrote. On the desk were piles of papers on which he had attempted to design submarines. Surely, he thought, his next book was meant to be about life at the bottom of the sea, life in a submarine. Not a tiny, clumsy craft like all of them so far. Not a miserable model likely to bring death to men in it. It would be a giant undersea boat. It would have comfort yet undreamed of. Twenty Thousand Miles under the Sea appeared three years later. It delighted everyone. “A splendid story,” most readers said, “Utterly impossible, but exciting!”

Ecotourism

　　The latest buzzword in the tourism industry is “ecotourism”－responsible, environmentally sound vacationing．Ecotourism, or “green tourism,” means taking care of natural resources, protecting endangered species, and preserving and contributing to local communities．

　　Armed with this “checklist,” I booked a vacation in an “ecoresort．”The brochure looked appealing－a hotel right on the beach, with a large swimming pool and golf course, in acres of unspoiled rain forest．

　　Unfortunately, the only way to get to this resort was a 12-hour flight followed by a long taxi ride．I was relieved to see the hotel at the end of the road．It was a low-rise building, made out of local stone．But as I later found out, in order to build the resort, the wealthy owner had bought up 30,000 square kilometers of unspoiled rain-forest．

　　Sunbathing by the glorious swimming pool, enjoying the sound of sprinklers on the golf course, I suddenly realized that this was an area where water is scarce．

　　So far, not so eco-friendly．I decided to try some of the trips to nearby conservation projects, to give the resort another chance to convince me．

　　Although it was the breeding season for turtles, we didn't see any．Apparently the large groups of tourists who arrive at the beach to see the turtles laying their eggs have driven the turtles away．A boat ride to a marine park was also disappointing．The noise of the boats means that the alligators(短吻鳄)are afraid to lie in the sun．The tourists, expecting to see some action, throw stones at the alligators in the water, in the hope of getting them to move．

　　The trip to the “authentic” local village was pleasant．The resort has turned the local homes into picturesque cottages．However, they are so charming that tourists are buying them, and the locals now live in small towns of badly built houses in the poorest areas of town．

　　All in all, my vacation didn't meet any of the standards for ecotourism．But there are many projects around the world where you can have a genuinely “green” experience．My next trip is to a mountain village, as a paying guest in a local family's home．

　　I will miss the swimming pool and the golf, though．

In many African countries, the care of orphans has been mainly led by foreign donor organizations. However, Sister Florence has changed all that. Using her own resources, Sister Florence is leading the work of raising orphans from different backgrounds. Sister Florence Wanjala’s biggest motivation to start the orphan program was when she saw a little boy whose parents had died. The boy was living with a cruel grandparent and he would visit the grave of his mother, crying for support. Sister Wanjala wanted to give a helping hand and give him hope. From that time, she started feeling the call to help a larger number of orphans.

She opened an office with a few friends and coordinated (协调)a program to help the orphans. All the registrations were done in the office and the program so far has 8000 children. Sister Wanjala said, “My dream is to help the orphan to live a holistic (完整)life and be a good Kenyan citizen to help this country. Many people think that the way to support orphans is to put them in an institution. Others support them up to the age of eighteen, but here, we do it very differently.” For Sister Wanjala, putting a child in an institution is normally her last choice. She prefers the orphans to live in a foster home.

She said, “I’m so encouraged and happy to see the orphans succeeding. When they come first or second in class, it shows how the program has helped them, and that’s encouraging to me as I continue to coordinate the program.” Through her charity work, more than 1000 orphans have been able to find a home. Sister Wanjala, as a mother, takes care of her own family.

1.What inspired Sister Wanjala to start the orphan program?

A. Her preference for kids. B. Her own similar experience.

C. A sad story about an orphan. D. Her successful charity work.

2.Sister Wanjala opened an office mainly to ______.

A. set up as many institutions as possible for orphans

B. start a program to offer orphans a foster family

C. provide school education for those orphans

D. raise more money for the homeless kids

3.What does the underlined sentence probably mean?

A. She didn’t want orphans to live in an institution.

B. She preferred to put orphans into an institution.

C. She had no choice but to put orphans in institutions.

D. She sent orphans into an institution in the end.

4.What can we learn from the text?

A. Sister Wanjala finally adopted the little boy.

B. Sister Wanjala found foster homes for 8000 orphans.

C. Sister Wanjala was too busy to care for her own family.

D. Sister Wanjala was not alone in helping orphans.
