            • 1. A 108-year-old Message in a BottleOn November 30,1906,George Bidder dropped a bottle from a boat into the North Sea.The weighted glass bottle sank almost to the sea floor,and then it move slowly for 108years and 138days.
              Its journey ended when Marianne Winkler found the bottle in 2015.Winkler was then on vacation on Amrum Island.She picked up the bottle when it was washed up onto the beach.She saw a piece of paper inside,but didn't break it open.She could tell that the bottle was old.So she didn't want to damage it.
              Finally she got the piece of paper out of the bottle.She found that the paper was actually a postcard.On the back of the card there was this message:The Marine Biological Association(海洋生物学协会) would pay a shilling(先令) for the bottle.A shilling was a unit of money that was used in Great Britain before the early 1970s.
              Winkler filled out the card and posted it.The association was surprised to get a postcard addressed to George Bidder,the president of the association from 1939to 1945.The workers of the association searched on the Internet to find a shilling.They found one and sent it to Winkler as a reward.
              The message in the bottle was the oldest ever re-discovered.For this reason Marianne Winkler got a place in"Guinness World Records"(吉尼斯世界纪录).She broke the record for the oldest message in a bottle.
              Winkler's bottle was not the only one Bidder sent to sea.Between 1904and 1906,he spent away more than one thousand bottles.He placed postcards inside them.The bottles were part of a research  project to map currents(洋流) in the North Sea.This was the best method at that time.But whether the association could get the bottles back depended on the people who found them.The association reported that about 55percent of the bottles were returned.They added that the experiment was a success as it showed the east-to-west flow of the North Sea's currents.

              61.How long did the weighted glass bottle move in the sea?    
              62.Did Marianne Winkler find the bottle in 2015?    
              63.What was in the bottle?    
              64.Who was George Bidder?    
              65.Why did Bidder drop bottles into the sea?

              Everybody knows that mobile gaming market is big in China. How big? Big enough that, according to a white paper released(发布)today by GMGC,    66   . The income China gets from mobile gaming in 2015 will hit $6.1 billion(十亿)--- just below the US, $6.3 billion.

              But    67    for the first time ever, hitting $7.7 billion in mobile gaming and become the world’s top market for mobile games.

              Those are just projections(推测), of course, but there are lots of reasons to believe   68    as the number of smart phone users continues to rise. The white paper also points out    69    than they use any other kind of app(应用程序). That also puts them before American mobile gamers, who spend just 11 minutes a day with their games. Chinese gamers keep and play games for longer than Americans.

              China may be a big market for mobile gaming, but    70   . Many Chinese mobile games lose money, and according to the white paper only four foreign game companies got games into the top 50 for 2014. Most top games are created by big companies like Tencent and Netease.

              In the USA, children start school when they are five years old. In some states they must stay in school31          they are sixteen. But most students are seventeen or eighteen years old when they32         secondary(中等的) schools. There are33          kinds of schools in the USA: public schools and private schools. 34          children go to public schools. Their parents don’t have to35          their education because these schools get36          from the government. If a child goes to a 37         school, his parents have to pay 38         money for his study. Some parents 39          like private schools though they are 40         more expensive.

              Today about half of the high school students41          in universities after they finish secondary schools. A student at a state university doesn’t have to pay very much 42         his parents live in that state.

              Many students43         while they are studying at universities. In this way they get into 44         working habits and live45          their own hands.

              When the teacher asks a question in class,Wang Xiaobin never raises his hand and this situation is very common at middle schools.This 15-year-old boy always waits for other classmates or the teacher to give the answer.“What if my answer is wrong?”Wang asks.
              Wang said only six or seven students in his class raise their hands when a question is asked.(93)“I think it’s a problem that may affect(影响)our studies,but I am afraid of making mistakes in front of my classmates.”he said.
              To encourage students to raise their hands in class,Hu Wei,why the students didn’t raise their hands,he said:“They lack(缺乏) of confidence,they are afraid of showing off,or they’re afraid of losing face by giving wrong answers.’’
              To encourage students to raise their hands in class,Hu suggests that teachers should repeat the question,then try to guide and encourage students to offer their answers. (94)Hu also advised students not to be shy,but brave enough to try.
              Sun Pin,16of Fujian,always raises her hand as soon as she comes up with the answer,even if she isn’t sure she has got it right.Sun can’t understand why some of her classmates keep silent in class.She enjoys raising her hand a lot.“It keeps me enthusiastic(热情的)and confident to express my idea.”Sun said,“Raising my hand has really made me excellent.”

A recently study found people’s lives are made shorter in North China.It is showed the life expectancy(平均寿命) had been cut down by 5.5years there.Researchers think that the heavy air pollution in China should be to blame(承担责任).It’s really the truth.Our government has already done something.However,it doesn’t seem to work so well.
              “Air pollution in China is doing harm to people’s health.The harm is much more 
              serious than we can imagine,”said Chen Yuyu of Beijing University,one of researchers of this study.
              Dirty air brings serious problems in North China.In January this year,the air 
              pollution was worse than that in other places.That was caused by rising temperature and waste gas(废气) from coal heating.
              Chinese government should strongly fight against air pollution.They should think of 
              more proper ways to deal with the problem.People should be encouraged to take buses,ride bicycles or walk,instead of driving cars.The factories that pollute heavily should be closed.
              “We need to improve our environment,although it might be expensive.Protecting our 
              environment means protecting ourselves,”Li Hongbin,another researcher of the study said.

              B.Chinese government should close some factories that pollute heavily.

              Chris is not a traditional explorer(探险者)-he usually works in an office for a large organization.Yet his job can sometimes be just as exciting and dangerous as being an explorer.
              Chris works for MSF,an organization also known as Doctors Without Borders (无国界医生).MSF sends trained doctors all over the world to help people after a war or a disaster.Chris is a doctor from France who has travelled to many places to organize programmes that help people.
              At the moment,there are over 27,000trained medical staff taking part in MSF projects and tasks.The organization received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1999.All kinds of doctors can volunteer for MSF.They need to be prepared to go almost anywhere in the world and,of course,they should expect difficult conditions.Doctors with experience in tropical(热带的)diseases are especially useful because most of MSF’s work is in Africa.When MSF accepts a doctor for a task,he has to go for at least six months.When doctors have completed a few tasks,they might be sent on an emergency task following a disaster,such as an earthquake.
              But why would a doctor leave a comfortable life and a good salary to join MSF?According to Chris,the experience you gain is a great help in your career.Besides,just like the explorers of the past,you need to keep an open mind and learn to mix well with the people you meet.Most importantly,at the end of each task,you have made a real difference to people’s lives.
