Once there were several scientists in a forest. They were trying to 1 a special animal in the world. No one had seen it. Every scientist was 2 and wanted to be the first one to photograph and study it. The animal only came out at night, 3 the scientists did some other things in the day. Among them, there was a famous scientist named Walter. Every day, he would spend an hour sitting at the desk and putting all his equipment(设备)in the 4 place. He did this carefully. But other scientists laughed at him because they thought Walter was just wasting 5.
One night, the animal appeared 6. The scientists heard its call. But the call didn't last long. The animal was frightened by the 7 made by the scientists while they were scrabbling (忙乱地找) for their cameras and notebooks.
On the next morning, the scientists 8 their findings. Some had tried to record its call, others had noted down how it moved, and the 9 one had even photographed parts of its tail and legs. They all congratulated each other on what they had found. However, when they saw what Walter had, they were very surprised. He had taken several complete photos, the record of the animal's cry and notes about the animal. They ran to congratulate Walter. They now understood the importance of keeping things 10. Because of that, Walter could find everything quickly in the dark.

It is not easy for people to sail around the world in quite small boats. Sometimes the weather gets bad. Accidents can happen easily and quickly.
One family once had an accident. A big fish swam under their boat and bit holes in it. Sea water came, in and the boat soon sank(下沉). Luckily these people had another small boat -a lifeboat, so they all got into the lifeboat. They stayed in the boat for many days. They ate, slept and always hoped. At last people in a ship saved them.
How do people live in a very small lifeboat for a long time? They must be strong in every way. They must have a hope, and they must have a strong desire(愿望) to live. People can't drink sea water. If they drink a lot of sea water, they will quickly die. They must collect rainwater and drink it. They must also catch fish and birds for food. Lifeboats do not often carry cookers. So people can't cook their food in the lifeboats. Raw fish and birds are not very nice but they are their only food. They must eat raw food, or they will die.
Coral reef is suffering
The Great Barrier Reef(大堡礁) in Australia, the world's largest coral(珊瑚) reef system and home to many kinds of sea animals, is in great danger. It is now experiencing its third mass bleaching(白化) in five years, resulting in the death of large amounts of coral.
"We know this is a mass bleaching event and it's a serious one," Professor Terry Hughes told the Guardian. Professor Terry Hughes, one of the world's leading experts on the reef, said it is far more serious than former mass bleaching events. It is a clear signal(信号) for people to take action.
Coral bleaching refers to the death of coral caused by high water temperatures. Global warming has caused ocean temperatures to rise, resulting in more frequent bleaching events. Many tropical(热带的) coral reefs will disappear if temperatures continue to rise, according to the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
As more of the Great Barrier Reef bleaches and dies, the animals that depend on it will die off as well. About 500 million people depend on the reef and the animals there to make a living, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature.
The ocean fishing industry, for example, depends on fish living in the Great Barrier Reef, as well as other reefs around the world. Reefs also protect coastlines from the damaging(有破坏性的) effects of tropical storms, as well as promote(促进) tourism, according to the Queensland Museum. Humans will be heavily influenced by their disappearance.
a. large amounts of coral will die b. animals that depend on coral will die
c. some people will live a hard life d. ocean temperatures will keep rising

Fencing is a one-on-one sport. It is popular in the United States. Here, one of the biggest fencing events is the Junior Olympics. This year, it took place in Denver, the capital of Colorado.
Fencers use three kinds of weapons: the foil(花剑), the sabre(佩剑) and the epee(重剑). I use the epee. With the epee, fencers can score on the whole body from head to toe.
I went with my teammates, Anacan and Cameron. We fenced in a team event. Both of them are great fencers, as well as my good friends. As this may be their last team event before going to college, all of us wanted to play well. We warmed up and felt ready to take on the rest of the fencers.
During our match, we had a lot of fun and cheered each other on. We made quick adjustments(调整) according to what our coach asked us to do. At the same time, we shared methods, on how to fight against our opponents.
Though we fought really hard, we lost by one point in the end. However, we were still happy to fight and help each other.
