But the young salmon takes 2 years to swim down the rivers towards the Pacific Ocean. For another 2 years it
14、lives in the sea and becomes full grown. Then it returns to the river where it was born. A grown-up salmon weighs about 25 pounds and is nearly three feet long. The female salmon will not lay the eggs in the Pacific Ocean. When it is almost time to lay them, both male and female salmons begin a grea
15、t journey. Each salmon is heading for the river where it was born. A salmon may be a thousand miles away from where its life began, yet it is able to return to that place. As the salmons swim, larger fish attack them. The salmons are food for some other fish. Some are caught by fishermen. The salmon
16、 becomes food for some other dish. The salmons that are left keep swimming. After they enter the rivers, they head upstream. If rocks and waterfalls are in their way, the salmon leap over them. A salmon can leap up a fall as high as ten feet. It leaps by swimming at full speed under water, then risi
17、ng to the surface. Almost the whole body of a salmon is made of muscle（肌肉） It is these powerful muscles that make the salmon fit for fast swimming, turning quickly, and leaping high out of the water. Some reach their river in summer, others in the early autumn. They have come hundreds even thousands
18、 of miles and it has taken them weeks and months.( ) 1. The young salmon was born and grows up . A) in a river in the river B) in a river in the sea C) in a sea in the sea D) in a sea in the river( ) 2. , both male and female salmons will return to where they were born A).

21、on( ) 5. The salmon can jump very high because . A. it can turn quickly B. it has strong muscles C. it weighs 25 pounds D. it is almost three feet longV. Reading B: Id always thought that kite flying might be more fun for the kite than for the person holding the line. After all, the kite gets to fly
22、 around high above the earth while the kite flyer has the dubious(不确定的) p (1) of watching it. But what if you could fly up there with the kite？Now some young people are doing an exciting new sport called “kite surfing”. Imagine yourself tied to a giant kite. You let it out, and then pull the line t
23、(2) . But you dont have to hold the kite in place with your body weight. The kite lifts you off the ground and into the air. Kite surfers u (3) launch（起飞）themselves over water, while standing on a small surfboard. The kite pulls the surfer across the water at s (4) speed and a sudden strong wind can
24、 send him flying up into the air.Its not a new idea to pull things with kites. Fishermen in India used kites to pull their boats over 700 years ago. In the 1800s, an Englishman showed a way of using kites to pull carts over land at high speed. But kite surfing is different not only because its just
25、done for fun, but because its so d (5) . After all, theres nobody holding the line. Kite flyers may fly too high or land quickly.If the wind picks up suddenly, things can get a l (6) dangerous. “Sometime,” says Dave Milken, a kite surfing instructor, “the wind is so strong that nobody can do this da
26、ngerous sport.” Think twice if you want to try the new sport.1. p ; 2. t ; 3. u ; 4. s ; 5. d ; 6. l VI. Reading C: Years ago, Linda Henkel, an American scientist, was traveling at the Grand Canyon. “When I was at the canyons edge,someone came to the front, took a picture and walked away.” She recal
27、ls as she shares her traveling experience. “He didnt even look at the scenery！Its just like, Got it -Done！”Henkel is surprised by how much people depend on pictures for their memories. These days, people take pictures before dinner, during friends birthday parties, and so on. They believe taking pic
28、tures will help them remember the moment. However, according to Henkels research, the opposite is true.In her study, Henkel led a group of college students around a museum. She asked them to look at 15 exhibits carefully and then to photograph 15 others. The next day, she tested the students memory
29、of the tour. She found that the students remembered fewer details about the exhibits they had photographed.Henkel explains that when people rely on their cameras, they pay less attention to the event themselves. As a result, they often fail to remember their experiences well.So taking pictures may p
30、revent our brains from remembering things and places. But shouldnt looking over the pictures wake up our memories？Henkel says, “This is true. However, it happens only if we spend enough time doing it.”“In order to remember we have to review the photos carefully,” Henkel says. Unfortunately, most peo
31、ple never take the time to look over their digital pictures. Why? There are just too many of them！1. What surprises Linda Henkel? 2. Henkel did her study at the Grand Canyon, didnt she? 3. What does Henkel study show? 4. How can we use our pictures to wake up our memories? 5. Why do people rarely spend enough time looking over their pictures? 6学科网（北京）股份有限公司
