I read poem recently and the young man said，”If I ask you you love, the answers will most likely roll your tongue. You love to read. You love to write. You love your mom, you daughter,or your best friend. How long do you think you can go on and on before you say 'I love(I)'？"
That statement hit me like a ton of bricks. I've struggled with confidence all my life. I still do. And in way am I saying that taking a selfie is a gateway confidence., the selfie does deserve some credit for allowing individuals to express themselves.

Yesterday I stepped into a restaurant for lunch. As I was waiting my order to come, I noticed the old man in a wheelchair roll himself over to a table. No one and me seemed to notice him. I got up and go over to his table and asked if that I could get him something to drink. He smiled and said," Thank you. You are generously. I'd like any orange juice, please."When I was getting ready to leave, I walked by the old man's table to saying goodbye. He thanked me again and told me I had made his days, coming over and helping him out. I gave him a hug and told him he had made my day, either.

Since the frigatebird spends most of its life at sea, its habits outside of when it reproduces on land aren’t well-known-until researchers started tracking them around the Indian Ocean. What the researchers discovered is that the bird’s flying ability is unbelievable.

Ornithologist(鳥類學(xué)家) Henri Weimerskirch put satellite tage(標(biāo)簽) on a couple of dozen frigatebirds. When the data started to come in, he could hardly believe how high the birds flew.

"First, we found, 'Whoa, 1,500 meters. Excellent,' " says Weimerskirch, "And after 2,000, after 3,000, after 4,000 meters-OK, at this altitude they are in freezing conditions, especially surprising for a tropical bird."

"There is no other bird flying so high relative to the sea surface," he says. "It’s the only bird that is known to intentionally enter into a cloud," Weimerskirch says. And not just any cloud—a soft, white cumulus cloud(積云). Over the ocean, these clouds tend to form in places where warm air rises from the sea surface. The birds take a ride on the current of rising air, all the way up to the top of the cloud.

Frigatebirds have to find ways to stay aloft because they can’t land on the water. Since their feathers aren’t waterproof, the birds would drown in short order. They feed by harassing other birds in flight until they bring whatever fish they’ve swallowed back into their mouth and the frigatebird takes it.

So in between meals, frigatebirds fly higher... and higher.

In one case, for two months-continuously aloft.

One of the tagged birds flew 40 miles without a wing-flap. Several covered more than 300 miles a day on average, and flew continuously for weeks. They are blessed with an unusual body. No bird has a larger wing surface area compared with body weight.

【1】How did researchers feel when data about frigatebirds reached them?

A. Calm. B. Surprised.

C. Hopeful. D. Anxious.

【2】According to the text, how can frigatebirds fly so high?

A. By flying into a cloud.

B. With the help of researchers.

C. Thanks to advanced technology.

D. By following other birds into the sky.

【3】What does the underlined word “they” in the text refer to?

A. Frigatebirds. B. Other birds.

C. Small fish. D. Larger fish.

【4】In what aspect are frigatebirds different from other birds?

A. When they give birth. B. What they feed on.

C. Their body weight. D. Their wing surface area.

It was nothing like the one I lived in with my mother, a small dark place with rules about befriending others. “Don’t. Never, ever talk to anyone,” my mother said.

One day, in sixth grade, a black-haired woman was introduced to our class: Mrs. Reese. Reese explained that she was starting Spanish Club. She invited anyone interested in learning Spanish language and culture to stay after school.

I could not take my eyes off her bracelets(手鐲) and shining rings. The bell rang, and to my shock, no one went up to Mrs. Reese. I was under strict orders to go straight home. But that day, I stayed. I asked Mrs. Reese when the club started.

“We could begin right now if you like,” she said with a smile. I felt beautiful. That day I learned that the house of my dreams was her house. I learned how to answer questions about my age and my favorite food in Spanish. And I learned, “Do you want to come over tomorrow for cooking lessons?”

I wanted to say “Yes”, but Mom’s words held me back.

I begged my mother all summer and into fall, well after Spanish Club had dissolved. I wept at night sometimes, so worried that Mrs. Reese and her family would move away.

At some point, I managed to wear my mother down and one Saturday afternoon. I rode out to Mrs. Reese’s house.

The details of that afternoon are marked in my mind: We had tea. She painted my toenails red. We made a garlicky picadillo. We spoke in Spanish. In Spanish, my voice was loud and romantic. This is the real me! I remember thinking.

My mother never permitted me another visit to Mrs. Reese’s house. But four decades later, I still remember that day and the life she showed me, proof of a possible future.

There’s a collection of plastic trash in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It’s bigger than Texas-and growing. The way to clean it up now is to catch it with nets. That is both costly and slow. Instead, the Ocean Cleanup Project proposes 62-mile-long floating barriers that would use natural currents to trap trash. If next year’s trials succeed, a full cleanup operation would aim to start in 2020. It could reduce the trash by 42% over 10 years.
