A
The American ship to Yokohama left the evening before. Phileas Fogg was going to catch it. He found a small boat. But the owner John thought it was impossible for his boat to go to Yokohama. Phileas Fogg gave him a lot of money. In the end, John agreed to try.
An hour later, they were on their way in the small boat. Travelling 800 miles on a small boat was a dangerous thing to do. It was even more dangerous at the time of the year because the wind was stronger than usual.
The boat was going as fast as it could. Then, a storm was coming from the south. John took action right away. He asked the people to close every door and window to stop the water from getting into the boat. All that day, large waves and strong wind pushed the boat. Towards evening, the wind changed direction and blew across the boat. The waves hit the boat from the side and this was very dangerous. As night came, the storm grew stronger.
It was an awful night. Sometimes, the waves came right over the boat. When daylight came, the storm was almost over, and the day was quite calm: It was the eleventh of November, and they were about one hundred miles from Shanghai. Phileas Fogg had to be in Shanghai that evening to catch the ship to Yokohama.
They worked as hard as possible, but the little boat could not make it in time. As they came into the harbour
(港湾) in Shanghai, they saw the American ship leaving.

“Come on, get out of bed,” says Dad. “I need your sheets (床单).” Oh, right. It’s Saturday, Laundry (洗衣
物) Day. Dad has a new idea. He washes clothes and sheets by hand, especially in summer. Then I have to hang all of them on the rope in the yard. It seems like a lot of work. And it means I can’t get up late on Saturday.
Dad gets the washing started early. That way all the clothes can be dry by the end of the day. “Up,” says Dad as he starts taking the sheets off the bed. I drop off the bed onto the floor. “Go and hang this!” Dad drops a wet sheet on me. It’s so cold!
After I hang up the sheet, I come inside and find Dad in the kitchen. Dad sits down across from me after making some biscuits. “Why so angry You know we have to do the laundry, right And do you realize that I collect the laundry, wash it, take it off the rope and put it away ” I am starting to feel guilty, with my face red. “And you have to help out around here, right ” “I know, Dad.

Like stopping at a gas station during a road trip, whale sharks use oil and gas platforms (平台) as a short rest stop during their migration of thousands of kilometers across the oceans. The human-made structures attract sea life—including the sharks’ favorite snack: plankton (浮游生物). But experts worry that this attraction could put the endangered giant creatures at risk of ship strike or chemical pollution.
Satellite tracking of whale sharks off the coast of western Australia shows how oil and gas platforms influence the movements of these gentle giants, ocean ecologist Ben D’Antonio, of the Australian Institute of Marine Science and University of Western Australia, and colleagues reported on January 18.
“Think of underwater landforms (地貌) like a truck stop on a highway,” D’Antonio says. “On a family vacation, we often pull into truck stops to fill up the car and grab a quick meal before heading to our final place.
Whale sharks seem to be using underwater landforms in a similar way.”
Over 14 years, the researchers tagged 78 whale sharks, tracked their movements and cross-checked the location of landform characteristics to see how these change the sharks’ routes. While natural canyons and seamounts also act as brief stops, this attraction towards oil platforms—possibly enhanced by plankton’s attraction to the platforms’ rays of light—could put the huge animals at risk of being hit by a ship or pollution from oil spills or waste. It’s impossible to know exactly how many are being killed by ships because their bodies sink without a sign.
The researchers hope this finding will help decision makers managing ocean protected areas and raise awareness of the possible effect on sea life when human-made platforms are disused or new structures are built.
“This will become more important as we would add additional structure to many coastal areas,” D’Antonio says.
17．Why do whale sharks use oil and gas platforms as a short rest stop
A．To enjoy the beautiful lights on the platforms.
B．To attract other sea life.
C．To get food attracted by the platforms.
D．To stay away from the satellites that track them.
18．What risk can whale sharks meet when they get to the oil and gas platforms
A．Crashing against ships. B．Missing their food.
C．Being hunted by people. D．Being studied by tourists.
19．Which of the following words has the same meaning as the underlined word “sink”
A．swim away B．break into pieces C．stay on the surface D．go down
20．What role do the researchers hope this finding will play
A．Help coastal cities make more money.
B．Make the gas platforms safer and bigger.
C．Help decision makers plan new structures.
D．Help countries use new kinds of energy.

五、阅读表达（本大题共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，共 10 分）
No one can change the weather. But if we read the signs correctly around us, we can know how the weather will be. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting.
For many centuries and in all countries, people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. Rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. Many people feel pain in their bones before the coming of wet weather. Their joints (关节) ache. Some birds fly high if the fine weather is coming, but they fly near the ground if rainy or stormy weather is on the way. It is probably because the insects which they are hunting fly low. If you see a rainbow during rainy weather, this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening. If the stars twinkle clearly at night, then fine weather will continue. If a fog appears in the evening just above a river, then the day will be warm. If the sky is mostly red in the morning, then rainy weather will probably come. Most of the above sayings have been made by people who have used their eyes and brains to forecast the weather.
