His family lived not far from the River Severn, England.Charles’ father was a well-known doctor and he hoped that his son would also become a doctor.As a boy Charles liked collecting(收集) very much. He collected many things: eggs, stones, and leaves. When he was sixteen, Darwin was sent to Edinburgh University to become a doctor. But he was interested in the history of nature.Then he was sent to study in Cambridge University until 1831.Later he worked in the ship Beagle. The Beagle studied the waters in the sea near South America. It also visited New Zealand, Australia and islands in the Pacific. Darwin studied many new plants and animals. In 1842 Darwin went to live in Kent. There, he understood that plants and animals are not always the same, and that they really change.By 1859, Darwin had finished his famous book The Origin of Species. It made a great hit in the world of science. He was opposed (反对) by the church and even by some scientists.

A lot of small shops along busy streets have been made into small game houses in order to get more money. These places are always crowded with people, especially young boys.In the computer game houses, people spend a lot of money competing (较量) with the machines. It's hard for one to win the computer, but one can make progress after trying again and again. People have a kind of gambling psychology(赌博心理) when they play computer games. The more they lose, the more they want to win. When class is over, the school boys run to the nearby computer game houses. Littleby little (渐渐地), they forget all about their lessons and fall far behind others. Some of them can get enough money from their parents. But some of them are not lucky enough to get the money. They begin to take away other students' money and become thieves.( ) 31. Who always go to the computer game houses?A.Young girlsB. Young childrenC. Young studentsD.Young boys.( ) 32.

It was carrying more than 2,000 people.The Titanic was the largest and finest at that time. People thought it was safe to be on the ship because it had 16 compartments (密封舱) with it. Even if 4 of those were broken (被撞破), it would still be able to stay on the sea.Four days later, when the Titanic was crossing the sea, the man on watch (值班) suddenly saw a very large iceberg (冰山) ahead. The great ship turned quickly on time, but before long there was a sound from below. The captain (船长) went down to see what was the matter. To his surprise, he found the ship was sinking fast because 5 compartments had been broken! Many people jumped out into the water. As there were not enough lifeboats (救生船), about 1,500 people died.( ) 36. The Titanic set off from England to .A.the U.S.A.B. AustraliaC. CanadaD. Europe( ) 37.

A newborn babywhale weighs as much as a big elephant. Cats can survive falls from very high place because they can turn themselves up the right way so as to keep their body safe. One cat fell 32 floors on to the street, but was just hurt a little. A bear can run as fast as a horse. A new born panda is smaller than a mouse, and weighs about 100 grams. Elephants are the most careful animals in their love. A male elephant may show his lady love for up to three years until the lady takes his love. They often show their lover by touching each other's body. Usually, wolves do not attack people. For years a Canadian newspaper says that they show that a wolf had attacked a person. But nobody could do that. Wolves do not usually go together though they may do this in winter.( ) 41.How much does a new born blue whale weigh?A. 10 tons.B. As much as a small whale.C.

The problem is that no one teaches you how to live a happy life. Here are three ways to help you start.What is happiness?I often hear people say they want to be happy. But when I ask them what happiness is to them, they can hardly explain (解释) it. If you don’t know what happiness is to you, happiness is only a word.Have goals (目标)If you know what makes you happy, you need to have goals to get those things. You can’t get happiness if you only want it, but don’t make it come.Don’t do thi ngs that make you unhappy!This may look very easy but you would be surprised how many people do things that make them unhappy.
