From it he can get food, minerals and treasure. For thousands years, he could sail on it. But he couldnt go far beneath its surface.Man wants to explore deep into the sea. However, he isnt a fish. Because he must breathe air, he cant stay under the waters surface for any length of time. To explore deep water, man faces even more dangers and problems.A diver who wants to stay under water for more than a few minutes must breathe air or a special mixture of gases. He can wear a diving suit and have air pumped to him from above. He can carry a tank of air on his bank and breathe through a hose and a mouthpiece.Water weighs 800 times as much as air. Tons of water pushes against a diver deep in the sea. His body is under great pressure. When a diver is under great pressure, his blood takes in some of the gases he breathes. As he rises to the surface, the water pressure becomes less. If the diver rises too quickly, the gases in his blood form bubbles. The diver is then suffering from the bends（潜水员病）. The bends can cause a diver to double up in pain. They can even kill him.56. How can a diver breathe air?A. He can breathe specially mixed gases.B. He can breathe from a tank on his back.C.

However, I never have the idea that it will take place in my city. But the truth is that it happened.When the building began to shake, I thought it was dizziness（眩晕） caused by long-time nonstop work and colleagues also kept silent till one of them shouted “the chair is shaking”, then we come to understand it was not personal feelings, and we started to find the reasonthe weak foundation of the building, or an earthquake （in a joking tone）, but we still kept doing what was in hand.It was kind of scare when I looked back, because of our slow reaction and stupid response. It was said the staff in another building next to us all ran out of building with their handbags; some of them even drove away. On hearing that, I thought it was a bit exaggeration. Did they really have to do so? It was only 20second mild shaking. But now, When I totally get to know what happened, I change my mind, It is not overreacting , but natural selfprotection response. Luckily its only the aftershocks; otherwise I guess I would be frightened to death. The aftershocks make me think what Im going to do in case of an earthquake, which I would never give a second thought before. I dont know whats on their mind for people who are on the spot of the earthquake, be frightened, at a loss, or simply running away, or trying to get contact with friends or It is hard to imagine the picture and even harder to imagine whats next.For the first time, I have the feeling of insecurity.
