To catch the fish is one of the most interesting parts of this sport. And you can clean the ships, but you don’t have to take them out of the water. You can get many things from the sea. Now you can see that skin-diving is both useful and interesting.
If you think you have tanks (罐子) of air on your back, you can swim freely under the sea-you are wrong. You must learn many diving skills. If you don’t feel well or the water is too cold, stop diving.

A. About 200 years old. B. About 1,200 years old.
C. About 2,000 years old. D. About 3,000 years old.
32. Why can you climb big rocks under water
A. Because you are stronger. B. Because there is a lot of light.
C. Because the fish can help you. D. Because you are not as heavy as on the land (陆地).
33. A skin-diver ________ under water in the sunny day.
A. can see only fish B. can’t see anything clearly
C. can see nothing D. can see everything clearly
34. Which of the following is NOT true about skin-diving
A. Skin-diving is a new kind of sport. B. Skin-diving is like visiting the moon.
C. Skin-diving is both interesting and useful. D. Good diving skills can help you to swim safely.
35. What is the main idea about the last paragraph

We can’t live with good moods (心情) all the time. Everyone has bad feelings sometimes. 36 Here is my advice.
Showing your feelings is very important. 37 If you keep bad feelings inside all the time, you may get sick easily. But if you talk with others about them, you’ll feel better than
Though your problems will not disappear (消失) at once, they won’t be bad for your health. At least, someone else knows and understands what’s wrong with you. 38
You should always remember that your parents love you very much. 39 So don’t be afraid to tell your parents about your problems.
If you don’t want to talk with them, what should you do Who can you turn to 40 Maybe that person can help you solve your problems and make you feel better.

To be a better me
How time flies! The new year is coming. Everyone dreams to become a better person. So do I. I will take action to improve myself step by step.
First of all, I am a lazy girl and I hardly ever exercise. So in the coming year, I am going to start an exercise program to improve my physical health. For example, I plan to join a swimming club and practice it once or twice a week, which can help me stay active and keep a healthy lifestyle. Additionally, I expect to travel and explore new places, as I believe that experiencing different cultures can broaden my horizons and enrich my life. What’s more, I want to take the chance to learn how to cook by myself so that I can make meals for my parents when they’re busy. It’s also a good way to improve the relationships with my family. Last but not least, I will take up a new hobby. I think singing is a great activity so I am going to learn to sing. This will also make my family happy because they love to listen to music and sing together.
As the saying goes, where there is a will, there is a way. I will try my best and keep on fighting in order to move forward.
