It can be dangerous to travel by sea. Ships sometimes sink(下沉) far away from land. When this happens, the sailors(海员) have to get into small boats. If another ship does not come and help them and they do not have enough food or water, they will die. Most people believe we must not drink sea water. They believe that if we do, we shall be very ill because of all the salt in the water. A doctor called Alain Bombard did not believe this. He thought that people could stay alive by drinking sea water and eating small fish, animals and plants from the sea. On 19 October 1953, he set out in a small boat to cross the Atlantic Ocean(大西洋). He did not take any food or water with him. Every day Dr. Bombard drank just a little sea water. He also caught fish and they had water in them. He drank this water. He could not cook the fish, so he ate them as they were. He took small plants from the sea, which gave him more food. Dr. Bombard became hot, tired and quite ill, but after 65days at sea he was still alive. He traveled 2,750 miles from one side of the Atlantic Ocean to the other, and on 24th,December 1953, he reached Barbados. He lost 20 kilos, but he showed that people could live on sea water, the animals and plants in the sea. 小题1:Alain Bombard was ______.A.an old sailor | B.a fisherman | C.a cook | D.a doctor | 小题2:He wanted to show that _____.A.sea water was dangerous | B.sailors often died | C.people could drink sea water and not die | D.fish were good for people | 小题3:He went across ______.A.a large ocean | B.a town | C.a boat | D.a ship | 小题4: Dr. Bombard lived on ______.A.sea water | B.food that he cooked | C.only fish | D.sea water, fish and small plants | 小题5:The story is about _____.A.drinking sea water | B.a dying sailor | C.a kind doctor | D.eating good food |

After our hospital visit, my husband and I needed cheering up, so we thought we would treat ourselves to a big breakfast at our favorite restaurant. While we were waiting for our meals, we decided to use all our small change and make our wallets light, so we counted it out as we waited. I vaguely(含糊地) remember seeing a man sitting nearby. When our meals arrived, we found a note. It read,” Your breakfast has been paid for. Hope you have a lovely day.” It was a wonderful surprise as nothing like that had ever happened to us. He must have thought we could hardly pay the bill. We looked around to thank him, but he had left. As retirees(退休者),we were grateful for the help like this, but it was the kindness of a total stranger that meant so much more to us. 小题1:The old couple went to restaurant for a big breakfast in order to _______.A.become happier | B.become healthier | C.become lighter | D.become younger | 小题2:What have you learnt from the story?A.The old couple couldn’t afford the meal. | B.The old couple paid the meal by small change. | C.The old couple had a free meal in the end | D.The old couple bought the man a big breakfast | 小题3:Clearly, the man sitting near the couple was _______.A.poor | B.rich | C.helpful | D.grateful |
