Saving Our Oceans

●Your Mission

Teach oceanographers(海洋学者)with different specialties about other ocean specialties and thus create a better understanding of the ocean as a complete, diverse system. ● Briefing

You've been invited to lead the International Oceanographic Conference in Oslo,Norway. Over one hundred of your fellow oceanographers will attend it. The problem is, withso many different specialties in the field-from geological to biological oceanography-theoceanographers at the conference are finding it difficult to understand what their colleaguesare studying, let alone to grasp the ocean as an entire, diverse system!

Your job will be to give the opening speech at the Conference outlining the generalkinds of oceanography in a way that each type of oceanographers will understand. Then, youwill assign different oceanographers to different projects and explain to them how best towork together. ● Family-x file

Then, create a poster based on the animals and terrain(地形). Make sure to label each animal that you draw. Show your poster to your family and describe to them what youhave drawn.

Older Xpeditioners: Learn more about each of the projects: Where in the oceanwould oceanographers go to study them? What animals might oceanographers study in theproject? Which types of oceanographers would you assign for each project and how wouldthey work together?

Finally, think about the ways in which the different general kinds of oceanographymight relate. Why is it important to look at the ocean as an entire system, rather than asdistinct parts? How might looking at each separate part and the ocean as a whole impactconservation efforts? Practice your speech for the Conference in front of your family. 21. What is your mission according to the text? A. To save the oceans all over the earth.

I have been teaching the tenth-grade English for four years. Needless to say, I love my subject and vowed to one day impart(透露) my love of literature to my future students. Well, I must admit, I have made more than a difference. I have changed the way students perceive(感知) literature and have even inspired some to become English teachers.

One student in particular is named John. I met him last year when he was a student inmy English class during the eighth period. He sat in the back often, saying very little.However, I sensed that he was taking in all that I taught. John was never absent nor was helate. He seemed very mature for his age.

As the year progressed, we read lots of poetry and various stories about differentcultures and real-life experiences. I have always wanted literature to speak to my studentsso that they could find relevant connections which would finally give them that motivation toread, write and interpret. While reading and writing poetry, John wrote some beautifulpoetry that spoke of his experiences as a black male in America.

On the last day of school, students were asked to write a brief autobiographical essay and to dedicate(献给) it to someone he or she thought was significant in his or her life. John dedicated his essay to me and used clip art that decorated the dedication with roses.

He stated in the essay that \those who are roses. Ms. Hopkins, Ijust want you to know that you are a rose in my lifeand I have enjoyed every minute of being in your class. You have shown me that I havepurpose in life and that I am a poet. I will never forget you.\

hard personal life that year and somehow that letter made it worththe struggle.

Making a significant contribution to someone's life is something money could neverbuy. Teaching allows teachers to make a positive difference in the life of someone. 24. What's the author's purpose to take John for example? A. To show that her students were all excellent readers. B. To develop her own idea about English literature. C. To prove what she had just said was true.

D. To persuade her readers to change their minds.

25. Why did John choose to dedicate his autobiographical essay to Ms. Hopkins? A. He thought she was significant in his life.

Companion planting is the idea that when some crops are planted together, they helpeach other grow. The compatible plants generally have similar needs for nutrients, soil andmoisture. Advice for companion plantings is sometimes based more on tradition thanproof. But Fabian Fernandez at the University of Illinois says there is evidence for somecombinations. These can lead to better crops, reduce disease and help with pest control by

attracting helpful insects. For example, some kinds of soil bacteria take nitrogen(氮) from the air and make a form that plants can use. The plants keep the nitrogen in their roots. Legumes(豆类) are especially good at this. Any crops sharing the same space can get the nitrogen as the roots decompose(腐烂).

Crops like beans and potatoes, carrots and cabbages, beans and rice can also shareterritory well because their roots reach different levels in the soil. Deep-rooted vegetablesget nutrients and moisture from lower down, so they do not compete with shallower plants.But some plants placed together may harm each other's development. For example,tomatoes do not like wet soil but watercress does, as the name suggests. So you wouldprobably not want to put them together.

Even after harvest, some kinds of produce should be kept apart. Apples, for example, release ethylene gas,a plant hormone. It can cause other foods to ripen(成熟)too quickly. Markets often separate high ethylene-producing foods from those that are sensitive to thegas. But sometimes you might want them together. For example, if you put an apple in a bagwith a green banana, the banana will be ready to eat sooner.

Now what about peaches, plums and nectarines that are too firm to eat? Growers inCalifornia answer this question at eatcaliforniafruit.com. They say an apple,a banana or ariper piece of fruit is not needed. The peaches, plums and nectarines themselves releaseenough of the gas to ripen successfully.

Here's their advice: place the fruit in afruit bowl or in a paper bag with the topfolded over.

Keep the fruit at room temperature. When the fruit is soft enough to your liking,either use it or place it in a refrigerator to stop further ripening.

32. What are the basic needs for companion planting?

A. Good old companions. B.Some kinds of soil bacteria. C. Nutrients, soil and moisture. D.Helpful insects.

33. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?

A. To some extent, companion planting relies more on traditional experience. B. In the field of companion planting, proof always speaks louder than tradition. C. Traditional experience is much less reliable than scientific experiments.

D. Scientific researches have thrown light on the theory of companion planting. 34. According to the text, which group of plants are not suitable to be planted together? A. Beans and potatoes. B.Tomatoes and watercress. C. Carrots and cabbages. D.Beans and rice. 35. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?

A. We should choose fruit from markets as often as possible.

B. The peaches, plums and nectarines should always be put together to get riper. C. The fruit in afruit bowl or in a paper bag should be eaten as soon as possible. D. We should not place any ripening fruit out in direct sunlight. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

One Possible Version Dear Editor,

I want to share my opinions on the universal two-child policy. As we know, China has the largest population in the world. That's why our government carries out \policy\also its disadvantages.

The universal two-child policy surely brings us some benefits. While parents bear a heavier

financial burden, it helps children with their growth. Besides, it can ease the pressure from the aging of population. It'll also improve the balanced development of population and increase labour force.

In fact, I prefer to have a brother or sister, because if I have one, I'll not feel lonely. We can grow up together. When in trouble, we can help each other. It's really wonderful! Yours, Li Hua
