On the Green River on May 24, 1869, ten men were putting bags into four small boats. They were about to leave for a dangerous, exciting exploration along the great Colorado River. The leader of the group was John Wesley Powell.
Powell wrote in his diary, “The good people of Green River City turn out to see us start. We raise our little flag, push the boats from coast, and the water carries us down. ”
So John Wesley Powell's story of his trip began on the river. The trip was just as dangerous as expected. The rivers were filled with rocks and waterfalls. Sometimes, the boats turned over and one of them even broke into two against a big rock. The explorers suffered from the hot sun and cold rain. They lost many of their things. But they went on.
On August 13th, 1869, they reached the mouth of the Grand Canyon (大峡谷). The situation became so bad that three of the men left to try to reach the land. Two days later, the rest of the group sailed out of the danger of the Grand Canyon.
It was one of the greatest trips in the history of North America. He and his men were the first whites to travel in that area. Until then, the land had been known only to Indians who said others could not be successful in getting there. But John Wesley Powell believed they could. And he believed it would provide wealth and valuable information about that part of America.
The story of the brave explorers was introduced in newspapers all over the country. John Wesley Powell became famous. Powell's explorations led to the birth of the United States Geological Survey (地质调查局)in 1879.

(　)49. Powell thought ____.

A. Powell could get wealth and information from the trip.
B. All the men succeeded in coming back from the trip.
C. Powell created the United States Geological Survey in 1879.

My first time to swim
As we all know, everyone has his unforgettable memories. I still remember the first time I learned to swim.
Last summer holiday, I wanted to learn how to swim. I asked my father to teach me. I went to the swimming pool with my father. He taught me how to swim. At first, I was afraid of diving into the water. And I felt uncomfortable in the water. But my father always encouraged me. He said he would protect me. Then I began to swim, but I couldn't swim forward at all. It made me upset. Then my father told me how to move by using my hands and legs. Slowly I could move a little. It took me about four hours to learn to swim. I felt quite happy.
What an unforgettable experience it was!
