They want to know about ocean water and the plant and animal life deep in the ocean.In 1934 the scientist William Beebe dived 3, 000 feet below the surface in hollow steel ball. In 1935 August Piccatd dived 10, 330 feet. In 1960 his son Jean dived to a depth of 35, 800 feet.All these early dives were deep. But the divers could not stay down for very long. They had to come back up to the surface after a few seconds. Scientists need to stay down longer to study life below surface. Gradually they succeeded, Cousteau, a Frenchman, was able to keep men down to a depth of 36 feet for one month and to a depth of 90 feet for a week.Now scientists are developing even better equipment. With this new equipment, men can stay blow the surface for days or even weeks. In 1962 Cousteau set up a research station 35 feet blow the surface. Then, in 1964, he set up another station on the ocean floor of the Red Sea. This was the first undersea station to operate without help from the surface.Many countries are now studying undersea living. The former Soviet Union has on an undersea laboratory in the Crimean Sea. The United States has a laboratory 50 feet down on the ocean floor off the Virgin Island. In 1970 five men lived there for 2 weeks. Then a tam of five women scientists stayed in the laboratory. Next came other teams of men. All were there to explore the ocean depth and to make plans for the use of its resources. Scientists hope to find enough mineral vegetable, and animal wealth there to provide food for the entire world.46.

None of the above is trueBA higher reading rate, with no loss of comprehension, will help you in other subjects as well as in English, and general principles apply to any language. Naturally, you will not read every: book at the same speed. You would expect to read a newspaper, for example, much more rapidly than a physics or economics textbook-but you can raise your average reading speed over the whole range of materials you wish to cover so that the percentage（百分比）gained wilt be the same whatever kind of reading you are concerned with.The reading passages which follow are all of an average level of difficulty for your stage of instruction. They are all about five hundred words long. They are abut topics of general interest which do not require a great deal of specialized knowledge. Thus they fall between the kind of reading you might find in your textbooks and the much less demanding kind you will find in a newspaper or light novel. If you read this kind of English, with understanding at four hundred words per minute, you might skim（浏览）through a newspaper at perhaps 650-700, while with a difficult textbook you might drop to two hundred or two hundred and fifty.Perhaps you would like to know what reading speeds are common among native English-speaking university students and how those speeds can be improved. Tests in Minnesota, U. S. A. for example, have shown that students without special training can read English of average difficulty, for example, Tolstoys War and Peace in translation, at speeds of between 240 and 250 words per minute with about seventy percent comprehension. Students in Minnesota claim that after twelve half-hour lessons, percent comprehension. Students in Minnesota claim that twelve half-hour lessons, once a week, the reading speed can be increased, with no toss of comprehension, to around five hundred words per minute.51. Where do you think the passage is taken from? .A. A school newspaper run by studentsB. The introduction to a book on fast readingC. The introduction to an English textbookD. A local newspaper of young people52. According to the passage, how fast can you expect to read after you have attended twelve half-hour lessons in the University of Minnesota? .A.

A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time: if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other peoples. in the same way, children learning to do all the other things they learn to d without being taught to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle compare（比较）their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and correct them for himself. We do it all for him. we act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.If it is a matter of right answer, as if may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time to such routine word? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he cant find the way to get the right answer. Let the children learn what all educated per-sons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.56.

He explained that “Toyota” would be a better name for the company. The family took his advice.
