| The night was dark, though sometimes the moving clouds allowed a star or two to be seen in the sky. The poor men held on to any bit of wood they could find. They called to the Marie (圣母玛丽亚) for _1_, but she was far _2_ the reach of the human voice. At one o'clock in the morning, the water was getting _3_ , and a strong _4_ had begun to blow. Suddenly _5_ were seen in the distance; another ship! The shouts of the swimmers were heard on board, and willing hands pulled them out of the water. The _6_ of the ship that had so _7_ arrived on the scene in time to save their lives was Ellen. What had brought her to the exact spot through the _8_ and the pathless sea? Her captain had known _9_ about the wreck (沉船) and had indeed attempted to sail away from it. But let him speak for himself. "I was forced by the wind," he said long afterwards, "to _10_ my course (航道). Just as I did it, a small _11_ flew across the ship once or twice and then _12_ at my face. I took _13_ of this until exactly the same thing happened at a _14_ time, which caused me to think it rather _15_ , while I was thus _16_ it, the same bird for the third time, made its appearance and flew _17_ in the same way as before. I was then _18_ to change my course back to the original (原来的) one. I had not gone far _19_ I heard strange noises; and when I tried to _20_ where they came from, I found I was in the middle of people who had been shipwrecked (船只失事). I immediately did my best to save them." | |||

| Not very long ago, the computer was a strange machine. Not many people understood it. Not many people said yes to it. Today much of that is changing. The first computer system was introduced for use in business in the mid-1950s. Since then, the number of computer systems used in business, government offices, and institutions has grown rapidly. In 1975, about 250,000 systems were in use in the United States. This figure is growing by tens of thousands every year. The computer is an important factor in our lives. Each year we use computer more and more to help us to collect data and to provide us with information. At one time people thought computers were only useful to banks, department stores and governments. But today the rapidly increasing numbers of computers are used for many other purposes. Have you ever stopped to think how you are affected (影响) by a computer? The clothes you wear were probably made with the help of a computer. The newspaper you read could have been edited and typed by a computer. Even radio programmes are often prepared by computers. Computers today are playing important roles in education, transportation and medicine. They are used to predict the weather, to examine the ocean, and to develop defense systems. They are being used by businesses, governments and institutions. There is no doubt that their uses will become a greater part of our lives. The influence (影响) of the computer is great. The list of its uses could go on and on. Computers now affect millions of people in countless ways every day. |

| Started in 1636, Harvard University is the oldest of all the colleges and universities in the United States. Yale, Princeton, and Columbia were opened soon after Harvard. In the early years, these schools were much alike. Only young men could go to college. All the students studied the same subjects, and everyone learned Latin, and Greek. Little was known about science then. When the students graduated, most of them became ministers or teachers. In 1782, Harvard started a medical school for young men who wanted to become doctors. Later, lawyers could receive their training (训练) in Harvard's law school. In 1825, besides Latin and Greek, Harvard began teaching modern languages, such as French and German. Soon it began teaching American history. As knowledge increased, Harvard and other colleges began to teach many new subjects. Students were allowed to choose the subjects that interested them. Today, there are many different kinds of colleges and universities. Most of them are made up of smaller schools that deal with special fields of learning.

| The first Olympic Games were held at Olympia, ancient Greece as early as 776 B.C.. The Olympic Games were held once every four years to honor the Greek god Zeus. Sportsmen from many nations took part in the games. The Greek Olympics did not have as many sports programmes as the modern Olympic Games.

| You may know all about vitamin C, but do you know why vitamin D is also important to your body? Experts from the Children's Hospital in Boston, US, have said that some teens don't get enough of this important nutrient. Vitamin D is necessary for developing healthy bones. It is produced by the body with the help of sunlight. It can also be found in certain foods and drinks, such as livers (肝脏) and eggs. However, it is difficult to get enough vitamin D from food alone, which means enjoying the sunshine is very important. The doctors who ran the study tested 307 teenagers to discover how much vitamin D was in their blood. They found that 74 of the children tested nearly 25 per cent had vitamin D deficiency (缺乏). Of those 74, 14 were severely short of the nutrient. The doctors also found that the amount of the vitamin found in a child's blood was affected by a number of factors. Vitamin D levels drop in winter, probably because less time is spent outside in the sunlight. Diet was also a key factor as well. Even skin color has an influence, as people with darker skin find it more difficult to produce the vitamin. Vitamin D deficiency can lead to many health problems for both children and adults. It is also believed that low levels of it can cause depression (抑郁). |
| 1. Vitamin D is important to your body in the way that it ______. |
| A. helps to keep your liver work normally B. helps to build your bones C. helps to produce fresh blood D. helps to take in nutrient from food |
| 2. We know from this passage that ______. |
| A. 25 percent of the teenagers in the world have vitamin D deficiency B. vitamin D plays an important role in a child's blood C. sunshine is one factor in gaining vitamin D for a human D. the darker your skin is, the more vitamin D you'll get |
| 3. The best title for the passage would be ______. |
| A. Vitamin D and Your Blood B. Where to Find Vitamin D C. Teenagers and Vitamin D D. Don't Hide from the Sunshine |
