The headman was Augusta Gaudron, and the other two men were Tannar and Maitland. They had a big balloon and they were ready for a long way.Soon they heard the sea. They were carrying the usual rope（绳子）,and it was hanging down from the basket of the balloon. At the end of the rope they had tied a metal box. This could hold water, or it could be empty. So they were able to change its weight. It was for use over the sea. They were also carrying some bags of sand.After the sun rose, the balloon went higher. It went up to 3,000 meters, and the air was very cold. The water in the balloon became ice. Snow fell past the mens basket, and they could see more snow on the ground. The men tried to throw out some more sand; but it was hard. They tried to break the icy sand with their knives, but it was not easy. The work was slow and they were still falling, so they had to drop some whole bags of sand. One of them fell on an icy lake and made a black hole in the ice.At last they pulled the box into the basket. It was still snowing, so they climbed to get away from the snow. They rose to 5,100 metres! Everything became icy. They were so cold that they decided to land. They came down in Poland heavily but safely.

Whether we choose to keep moving around, or we choose to stay in one place, we are on a journey. That journey is not an easy one because every day it makes our face new problems in new ways.When I was a little boy, I always looked forward to the next trip or the next holiday. Maybe it is because we lived in a small and boring town. When I finished school, I kept moving. In the first year out of school, I travelled with a friend and we visited over 17 countries in Europe, working in different jobs as we went. After this, I started studying. I studied at three different universities and lived in five different towns. That was my life. There was always someone else to get to know. All this carried on for many years until I got married and had my own family. When you stay in the same place, with the same persons, you start a whole new journey.Then you will stay in the same town, choosing one place to live and one job to remain in. There you are challenged to face life, doing things such as trying hard to get along well with your boss. You have to keep on at your job when you feel like giving it up and traveling again.So rather than move around on different trips, you are on a new journey. This journey of staying still is just as important as all the travels in the world.（1）Why did the writer like moving around when he was a boy? A . Because he liked being with friends.B . Because he wanted to know about the world.C . Because he lived in a boring and small town.D . Because he didnt love his family.（2）Which one is TRUE according to the passage? A . The writer went to Europe alone when he left school.B . The writer kept moving during his whole life.C . After the writer got married, he tried different jobs.D . The writer thinks staying still is as important as traveling around.（3）What is the best title? A . Go travelingB . Life is a long journeyC . Stay stillD . Travel makes you better6. （25分）阅读短文，从AE五个句子中选择正确选项还原到文中，使短文内容完整，正确。 Many people do not like to stay at home on holidays. _or do something exciting.
