AIn the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and preparing for the worst, Aussie adventurer Peter Seiter wrote a farewell note to his family, put it in a bottle and threw it overboard. With a sense of bad feeling he wrote: “The ocean has a personality of its own. The place can be such a peaceful environment to be in, yet it can be frightfully violent. I’ve experienced both.” Fearing he wouldn’t make it home, he placed t he note —dated June 11, 1998 —in a wine bottle and sealed the bottle.“I included our geographical coordinates (地理坐标) so if anything happened to me, they’d know our last place when I threw the bottle into the ocean,” says Peter. He also included some money with his message, asking whoever found it to use the money to post the letter to his family in the tiny Victorian township of Wunghnu.Seventeen days later he reached his destination, having survived the dangerous seas, but he assumed his message in a bottle had not —until it was found on shore, 11 years later!Recently, American woman Katherine Ginn and a friend came across the bottle on a deserted beach in the Bahamas. “Alongside it they’d found a life jacket and, assuming the worst, smashed the bottle open and spent 24 hours drying it out so they could read my story and write to my family like I requested,” says Peter, 44. “I couldn’t believe it —that after all these years my bottle had turned up and with its contents still undamaged.”Katherine posted him his letter, money and some broken glass from his bottle, placed in a tiny box as a special souvenir. These special items now share pride of place among photos of Peter’s Atlantic voyage. “I can’t express what this old letter means to me,” Peter says. “It givesme a sense of hope and belief. It’s something special to share with my children as they grow up.”21. Peter had the idea of a message bottle because ________.A. He missed his family very much.B.

Which statement is TRUE to the message bottle?A.It contained Peter’s special souvenir.B. Certain pieces of glass could be found in it.C. There was water in it when Katherine found it.D. It was marked with a map of geographical coordinates.BThe popularity of farmers’ markets combined with concerns over food security is making the number of school leavers taking agriculture courses increase rapidly.Large numbers of 16-to-18-year-olds are taking qualifications in subjects such as agriculture and food in spite of a lack of background in farming. Jeanette Dawson, head of Bishop Burton College, said women were also taking up courses at an increasing rate. She said it was related to a series of food scandals (丑闻), such as the discovery of horse-meat in frozen meals sold in the major supermarkets.But the movement was also promoted by an increased awareness of the importance of local food and produce, with events such as farmers’ markets seen as increasingly popular, even among young people, she said.Figures showed almost 54,500 under-19s took agriculture and animal care qualifications in 2013-2014. It was up by almost two-thirds in just seven years from 33,000 in 2005-2006. The number of students taking courses in “land-based subjects” has increased in the last 12 months alone.The subjects are also increasingly popular at university-level. Mrs. Dawson said there were a lot of young people who weren’t from farming backgrounds. But there had been a growth in the number of them accessing agriculture programmes with a view to a career in the industry. She said agriculture was an “applied science, with the great outdoors as its laboratory”.“We have benefited from the interest that the public takes now in food,” she said. “I never underestimate the ability of teenagers to pick up on it. The more it is in the media, the more it interests young people. Whenever I go in my local pub, it has on the blackboard where the meat is from. Everyone is interested in buying local food and knowing where their food is from.”The comments were made as Bishop Burton prepares to expand with a £13 million projectwhose a new site —due to open in September 2016 —will be the college’s second in the county, in addition to one at nearby Riseholme.The college is currently locked in a battle with Lincoln University over ownership of the Riseholme campus, which is used for courses such as agriculture and animal management. And the university plans to build houses on the site.24. What is making large numbers of students take agriculture courses?A. Colleges are offering more agriculture courses.B. Students don’t need to have a farming backgroundC. People are increasingly concerned about food security.D. Farmers come to regard agriculture as an applied science.25. What can we learn from the passage?A. Bishop Burton College is going to build a new campus.B. People never cared about where the food was from before.C. The number of women taking agriculture courses is decreasing.D. Students need a farming background in taking agriculture courses.26. What does the writer mainly discuss in the passage?A. Job opportunity.B. Food safety measur es.C. Expansion of university.D. Popularity of agriculture courses.CMany good parents feel that they have to punish their children once in a while. But other parents find that they can successfully manage without ever having to punish. A lot depends on how the parents were brought up. If they were punished occasionally for good reason, they naturally expect to have to punish in similar situations. And if they were kept in line by positive guidance alone, they tend to find that they can do the same with their children.Actually, there are also a fair number of poorly-behaved children. The parents of some of them punish a lot, and the parents of others never do. So we can’t say that punishment always works or that lack of it always works. It all depends on the nature of the parents’ discipline (规矩) in general.Before we go further with the subject of punishment, we ought to realize that it is never the main element in discipline. It’s only a reminder that the parent s feel strongly about what they say. We have all seen children who have been slapped and beaten on their bottoms, and yet remained ill-behaved.The main source of good discipline is growing up in a loving family —being loved and learning to love in return. Habitual criminals are people who in childhood were never loved enough to make much difference to them. Many of them were also abused or were witnesses to significant violence.Another vital element is children’s intense desire to be as much like their p arents as possible. They work particularly hard at being polite, civilized and responsible. They pretend very seriously to take care of their dolls, keep house and go out to work, just as they see theirparents do.In automobile terms, the child supplies the power, but the parents have to do the steering. For most children, most of the time, a disapproving glance or word from a parent is enough to direct the child back on the right track. Children’s motives are good, but they don’t have the experience or th e stability to stay on the road. The parents have to keep saying, “We hold hands when we cross the street,” “It’s time to go to bed so you’ll grow up to be big and strong,” and on and on.27. Parents’ attitude towards punishment is decided by _______.A. their role of punishmentB. their power over their childrenC. their ill-treatment during childhoodD. their experiences of being brought up28. The author probably believes that ________.A. children from a loving family will behave wellB. children will grow into loving others naturallyC. punishment is a must when it is necessaryD. punishment helps parents behave children properly29. The underlined word “steering” in the last paragraph most probably means ________.A. learningB. drivingC. workingD. pushing30. What might be the best title for the passage?A. Punishment and Discipline.B. Is Punishment Necessary?C. Parents’ Role Model.D. Like Father, Like Son.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。
