请阅读以下度假者的信息，然后匹配他或她适合的假期生活：

1. Glen has always shown his strong attraction to the sea. His father used to be a sailor and often tells him some interesting stories on wrecks. Glen wishes he would become a sailor just like his father and that he could take real water adventures some day. Perhaps he will have a chance to refloat those famous wrecks in history.

2. Melvin, a born “artist”, enjoys painting very much. His parents give him much support and encourage him to study hard so as to be successful as painter.

3.While others go to school by bike or by bus, Wendy always goes to school on foot, which she thinks is important and necessary to keep fit. This summer, her family are planning to take a holiday abroad without taking any vehicles. The destination is likely to be a country of southeast Europe to enjoy the beautiful scenery there.

4.Boris is always dreaming of flying to the moon one day in the future. He always worships those who have ever had an adventure in space. Of course, it is, as he himself knows, not so easy to realize such a big dream, for that needs to be athletic enough to get trained in all ways before going into space.

5.Emma likes drawing very much, but she has hardly considered to be an artist one day. Instead, she wishes to be admitted to a famous university and learn the science of designing and constructing buildings, which also needs one’s ability of drawing.

 

How to improve my life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. They'll say, "This is my fate, my destiny. I cannot change it."

Of course not! You don't have to suffer needlessly. Your destiny depends on you, not on any other external factors.

I know someone who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows.

Huh! Is this what she calls "doing her best"? She believes she has tried her best and just accepts it in her heart that this is the life that God has intended for her to live; that her luck can only change if God wills it.  Of course God wants us to be happy and live our life to the fullest, but we have to do our share of exerting(运用) the effort to live the life of our dreams.

Remember that you reap what you sow. You just don't sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone. Don’t expect your luck to change unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don't just regard it as a temporary setback; but use it as feedback. Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It's not enough to think positively; you also have to act positively.

If someone's life is in the trouble, do you just hope and pray that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don't just stand (or sit) there, do something to improve your life.

In the past, people who graduated from college felt proud of their academic achievement and confident that their degree would help them find a good job.

However, in the past four years the job market has changed dramatically. This year’s college graduates are facing one of the worst job markets in years. For example, Ryan Stewart, a graduate of San Jose University, got a degree in religious studies, but no job prospects. He points out that many people already working are getting laid off and don’t have jobs, so it’s even harder for new college graduates to find jobs.

Four years ago, the future looked bright for the class of 2003. There were many high-tech job opportunities. Graduates received many job offers, and they were able to get jobs with high salaries and benefits such as insurance and paid vacations. However, “Times have changed and it’s a new market,” according to Cheryl Allmen- Vinnidge of the San Jose State Career Center.

Allmen-Vinniage says students who do find jobs started preparing two years ago. They worked during summer vacations, they have had several internships（实习）, and they’ve majored in one of the few fields that are still hot, like chemical engineering, accounting, or nursing, where average starting salaries have actually increased over last year. Other popular fields (like information system management, computer science, and political science) have seen big declines in starting salaries.

Ryan Stewart (he had hoped to become a teacher) may just end up going back to school. “I’d like to teach college some day and that requires more schooling, which would be great in bad economy.” he said.

In conclusion, these days, to some students a degree may not be a ticket to instant wealth. For now, they can only hope its value will increase over time.

4.Ryan Stewart will have to ________.

A．change his major	B．get a job teaching
C．go back to school	D．become a religious leader

It is reported that conservation groups in North America have been arguing about the benefits and dangers of wolves. Some groups believe wolves should be killed. Other people believe wolves must be protected so that they will not disappear from the wilderness (荒野)

For Killing Wolves

In Alaska, the wolf almost disappeared a few years ago, because hunters were killing hundreds of them for sport. However, 1aws were established to protect the wolves from sportsmen and people who catch the animals for their fur. So the wolf population has greatly increased. Now there are so many wolves that they are destroying their own food supply.

A wolf naturally eats animals in the deer family. People in the wilderness also hunt deer for food. Many of the animals have been destroyed by the very cold winters recently and by changes in the wilderness plant life. When the deer can’t find enough food, they die.

If the wolves continue to kill large numbers of deer, their prey (猎物) will disappear some day. And the wolves will, too. So we must change the cycle of life in the wilderness to balance the ecology(生态平衡）. If we killed more wolves, we would save them and their prey from dying out. We’d also save some farm animals.

In another northern state, wolves attack cows and chickens for food. Farmers want the government to send biologists to study the problem. They believe it necessary to kill wolves in some areas and to protect them in places where there is a small wolf population.

Against Killing Wolves

If you had lived long ago, you would have heard many different stories about the dangerous wolf. According to most stories, hungry wolves often kill people for food. Even today, the stories of the “big bad wolf'” will not disappear.

But the fact is wolves are afraid of people, and they seldom travel in areas where there is a human smell. When wolves eat other animals, they usually kill the very young, or the sick and injured .The strongest survive .No kind of animal would have survived through the centuries if the weak members had lived. And has always been a law of nature.

Although some people say it is good sense to kill wolves, we say it is nonsense! Researchers have found wolves and their prey living in balance. The wolves keep the deer population from becoming too large, and that keeps a balance in the wilderness plant life.

The real problem is that the areas where wolves can live are being used by people. Even if wilderness land is not used directly for human needs, the wolves can’t always find enough food. So they travel to the nearest source, which is often a farm. Then there is danger. The“big bad wolf”has arrived! And everyone knows what happens next.

1.Some people are against killing wolves because ________.

A．there are too many deer in the wilderness

B．wolves are afraid of people and never attack people

C．wolves help to keep the ecological balance in the wilderness

D．there is too small a wolf population in the wilderness

2.According to those against killing wolves, when wolves eat other animals, ________.

A．they might help this kind of animals survive in nature

B．they disturb the ecological balance in the wilderness

C．they never eat strong and healthy ones

D．they always go against the law of nature

3.The last sentence “And everyone knows what happens next” implies that in such cases _______.

A．wolves will find enough food sources on farms

B．people will leave the areas where wolves can live

C．farm animals will be in danger and have to be shipped away

D．wolves will kill people and people will in turn kill them

 

One family, which had emigrated from Japan and settled at the turn of the century near San Francisco, had established a business in which they grew roses and trucked them into San Francisco three mornings a week.

  35 , the Japanese family packed up and   36  a train. They were going home.

What would they find? The family was   37 at the train station by their neighbors, and when they got to their home, the whole Japanese family stared.. There was the nursery, complete, clean and shining in the sunlight, neat, prosperous and healthy.

So was the balance of the bank passbook   38 to the Japanese father. And the house was  39 as clean and welcoming as the nursery.

And there on the dining room   40  was one perfect red rosebud, just waiting to unfold- the gift of one neighbor to another.
