Topping the class academically was certainly an advantage. Studying was a breeze for

Nigel. The reward was certainly incomparable to the little effort that he had to put it. It begin when he was selected to help the teachers in the computer laboratories.

The peak of his school career came not when he topped the school but when he was selected for the nationwide competition. Unlike everyone else, Nigel wanted to join the contest because he liked playing with the Lego sets and making something out of them. Nigel spent the next two months rebuilding the robot. It was during the time that Nigel found out about the prizes for the competition. Its well us auspices competitor. Alicia, from a neighboring school. His early intentions were forgotten. Getting the thousand-dollar prize was more important than anything else. Nigel decided to befriend Alicia. Unaware of his intentions, she told him all about the robot that she had been building for the competition. He even helped her to put the finishing branches to her robot. He was glad with the way things had progressed. His robot looked even better than Alicia’s and it was able to become a ball with its arms, something Alicia had failed to do.

On the day of the competition, he says Alicia. Everything dawned on her the minute she saw him among the competition. She stared at him, puzzled at first, then angry and finally a look of helplessness came over her.

The flashbulbs of the camera exploded in Nigel’s try. The robot bird performed actions so unique and different that the specialist judgments were the same.

Bruce Jones thinks there is still a healthy thirst for exploration into underwater worlds on our own planet. After growing up with his grandfather who was in the marine construction business,  Jones quickly got a feel for the water. He started diving at age 9 and, by the 1980s, began offering advice for those interested in the submarine business. By 1993, he was running his own company, U．S. Submarines, which designed and built submarines for resorts and individuals.

Jones plans to spend $40 million in building a hotel where the most expensive rooms will be 50 feet under the sea off Eleuthera Island in the Bahamas. Unlike the Jules Undersea Lodge — the only undersea hotel now, just off the coast of Key Largo, Fla. — guests at the Poseidon won't need to put on a wet suit to get to their rooms. They also won't need to worry about changing pressure levels since the rooms will be kept at above－surface pressure. Instead, they can move easily to their $1,500－a－night underwater rooms by escalator.

“I think there are a large number of people who would be interested，” said Jones, “including anyone who is looking for a different experience.”

Each room will feature strong windows that look out onto coral gardens. There will be controls in each room that guests can use to change the lighting of the underwater worlds outside their windows and to provide food for fish swimming by.

“By now I envisioned (展望) we'd have whole underwater cities，” Craig Cooper, the director for the Aquarius research station said. “It's about time some of these visions became reality.”

1. Which of the following is the correct order of the events that happened to Bruce Jones?

a. Jones started running U．S. Submarines.

b. Jones began to learn to dive.

c. Jones planned to build an undersea hotel.

d. Jones began giving others advice on the submarine business.

A. a, b, c, d  B. a, c, b, d

C. b, d, a, c  D. b, a, c, d

2. We can learn from the second paragraph that the Jules Undersea Lodge________.

A. lies off Eleuthera Island in the Bahamas

B. is the first undersea hotel in the world

C. needn't provide wet suits for its guests

D. sends its guests to their rooms by lift

3. What do we know about Bruce Jones' undersea hotel from the passage?

A. It will be much cheaper than the Jules Undersea Lodge.

B. It has taken Jones $40 million to build it.

C. Guests in it will open the windows to give food to the fish.

D. Guests in it will see beautiful coral through the windows.

4. The underlined word “Poseidon” in Paragraph 2 refers to ________.

A. Bruce Jones' undersea hotel

B. Jules Undersea Lodge

C. an island off the coast of Key Largo

D. another name of Eleuthera Island

5. Judging by Cooper's words, his attitude towards underwater hotels is ________.

On Sunday while I was having my own Father’s Day celebration, I thought about my dad a lot. By the time I called to tell him that I loved him, he had already gone to bed. So I wrote the following to show what my dad means to me.
About 28 years ago, my dad was a used car salesman. Every Thursday night, he would head off to Shreveport, LA for the auction（拍賣會）. Most of the time, I drove a car over there for him so he could sell it there.
One day, I was riding with my dad to Shreveport for the auction when he found a hitchhiker（搭車者）with a backpack. As soon as dad saw him, he pulled the car over and offered him a ride. Dad asked him his name and continued to talk to him about all sorts of things. I can’t recall why but he told dad a lot of terrible things that had occurred to him. I sat in the back seat and watched the scene with amazement. I could see that the hitchhiker changed his attitude as he could tell someone who was really listening to him.
We drove another forty-five minutes before we had to exit the interstate（州際公路）. We pulled over and dad told him to keep his head up and things would start looking up for him soon. He reached into his pocket and handed the hitchhiker a twenty-dollar bill and then a the-dollar bill.
We drove on and my dad did not say a single thing. I was still completely amazed by what I just witnessed. I was always told everyone to never pick up a hitchhiker and yet my dad did it every single time he saw one. I’m sure that it made that poor man’s day, probably a month to follow.
While reflecting upon that story, I learned a lot about my dad and life. I learned that if you come from a place of service or compassion, you can change people’s lives. Just one single kind act can change someone’s life. It never occurred to my dad about not stopping to help him.
This is the type of person my dad is. Thank you for setting such high standards for me to follow.
Dad, I love you. Happy Father’s Day!
