Some years ago, on a hot summer day, a little boy decided to go swimming in the river near his home.
He jumped into the water, but he didn't realize that a crocodile(鳄鱼) was swimming toward him. His mother was looking out the window and shouted to her son as loudly as she could. She ran toward the water and saw the two as they got closer and closer together.
Hearing her voice, the little boy became scared and made a U- turn to swim to his mother. It was too late. Just as he reached her, the crocodile reached him.
From the dock, the mother held her little boy by the arm s just as the crocodile caught his legs. That began a tug- of- war(拔河) between the two. The crocodile was much stronger than the mother, but the mother was much too passionate to let go. A farmer happened to drive by. When he heard her crying, he ran out from his truck, took aim and shot the crocodile.
Amazingly, after weeks and weeks in the hospital, the little boy survived. His legs were full of cuts from the accident. And on his arms were deep scars(伤疤) from his mother's fingernails.
A newspaper reporter asked the boy if he would show him his scars. The boy lifted his pan t legs. And then, he said to the reporter:“ But look at my arms. I have great scars on my arms, too. I have them because my mom wouldn't let me go.”

The meeting had come to an end. Bob stood up and bumped the table, spilling his coffee over his notes.“ How embarrassing! I am getting so clumsy(笨拙的) in my old age.”
Everyone had a good laugh, and soon we were all telling stories of our most embarrassing moments. And it came around to Frank.
“I grew up in San Pedro. My Dad was a fisherman. It was hard making a living on the sea.” He looked at us and said,“I wish you could have met my Dad. He was a big man, and he was strong from pulling the nets and fighting the seas for his catch.”
Frank's voice dropped a bit,“ When the weather was bad he would drive me to school. He would stop the car right in front, and it seemed like everybody would be watching. Then he would lean over and give me a big kiss and tell me to be a good boy. It was so embarrassing.”
He paused and then went on,“I remember the day I thought I was too old for a good- bye kiss. When we got to the school, he had his usual big smile and started to lean toward me, but I put my hand up and said,‘ No, Dad.’ It was the first time I had ever talked to him that way. I said,‘ Dad, I’m too old for any kind of kiss.’ My Dad looked at me for the longest time, and his eyes started to tear up. Then he turned around and said,‘ You’ re right.’”
For the moment, Frank got a funny look on his face, and the tears began to well up in his eyes.“ It wasn't long after that when my Dad went to sea and never came back.”
“ Guys, you don't know what I would give to have my Dad give me just one more kiss. I wish I had been a man then. And I would never have told my Dad I was too old for a good- bye kiss.”

After spending years searching for a planet with life, scientists may have found one. In September 2010, a team of US scientists discovered an Earth- sized planet called Gliese 581g. It has a surface temperature neither too hot nor too cold for liquid(液态) water. Scientists think there is a chance that the planet could have life.
The planet Gliese 581g goes around a star called Gliese 581, and gets the name Gliese 581g, which is about 20 light- years from Earth. That is about 194 trillion(万亿) kilometers—500 million times farther away from us than the moon.
A spacecraft traveling at a one- tenth of the speed of light would reach Gliese581g within about 220 years. A human can't live that long, but robotic explorers could make the job easier. However, our fastest spacecraft don't come anywhere near that one- tenth light- speed mark.
At present, scientists don't know what the surface might be like on Gliese581g. What they know is that the planet is at the right distance from its star to have liquid water. It's also at the right distance to have an atmosphere that could protect the water if it is on the surface.
Although spacecraft won't be getting there anytime soon, one way to look for life on Gliese 581g is to turn our radio telescopes towards the planet and search for radiation. By studying the radiation, scientists would find out about the chemicals around the planet and discover if Gliese 581g has an atmosphere(气体). If it has one, studying the atmosphere would give us a good idea whether the planet has life or not. But it' ll probably be many years before we can do this properly.
People have been arguing about whether there is alien life on Gliese 581g. Any discussion about alien life is just guessing at this point, according to its discoverers.
( )27. Scientists may have found a planet with life because .
A. the planet is Earth- sized
B. the planet may have water
C. the planet has a surface temperature
D. the temperature is not high
( )28. Gliese 581g according to the passage.
A. goes around its star Gliese 581
B. goes around the earth
C. is almost as far as the moon from us
D. is a little farther from us than the moon
( )29. Scientists know according to Paragraph 4.
A. Gliese 581g has liquid water on its surface
B. Gliese 581g has an atmosphere to protect water
C. what the surface of Gliese 581g might be like
D. Gliese 581g has the right situation to have water
( )30. Which of the following is the best title for the passage
A. Gliese 581g, a Likely Living Planet.
B. Gliese 581, a Likely Living Star.
C. Gliese 581g and Its Star Gliese 581.
D. Gliese 581g and Its Alien Life.

As a child, you may be a little bit nervous about choosing a career(事业) in your future. What's important is to choose your career based upon what you want. Here's some advice on how to choose what you want to be when you grow up.
31.
If you are not sure about the difference between a job and a career, learn it now. A job is something that helps you get money while you study for a career. A career is a life plan that you will need to study for.
32. ,
If you are really serious about choosing a proper job or career, you will need to write everything down. You can write the words“ job” and“ career” down on the paper and draw two columns below. In the“ job” column, list about 5-8 jobs that interest you. You don't have to be too serious about them. In the“ career” column, list some careers that interest you. Unlike jobs, the career is probably going to last long, so choose carefully.
34.
If you have listed more than three jobs or careers, cross out any careers that are impossible or very hard to achieve, such as a footballer. Cross out any jobs that pay very little and aren't worth getting.
35.
Research the one that pays the most and what qualifications you need to get that job. Usually, the higher the job pays, the more qualifications you need. Maybe that job is to your career someday.
A. Start listing B. Write down
C. Change ideas D. Study on
E. Know differences F. Cut off
