( 2 ) 1872, the Marie Celeste started on a trip across the Atlantic Ocean ( 3 ) a crew of ten people. Some time later, the captain of another ship, the Dei Gratia, saw the Marie Celeste. There was something strange about it’s appearance. The captain called out, but there was no answer. When the captain went to inspect the ship, no one came to meet him. He knew something was wrong, but there was no signs of fighting. Nothing was missing. And it was surprising that there was food on the table. Where was everyone? Did the crew jump ( 4 ) the Marie Celeste? Or did something come up from the ocean and take the captain and the crew away? The captain of the Dei Gratia looked around for clues. The last entry in the Marie Celeste ‘s dairy was ten days earlier. However, the food on the table was only a few days old. Someone was on the ship a few days before, but they didn’t write anything in the ship’s diary. Why? There were many different explanations for the mystery of the Marie Celeste . Some people thought the huge octopus ate the crew. Others said bad weather carried them ( 5 ) . A few people believed that Marie Celeste was under a curse, because it sank on a later voyage. Now the Marie Celeste lies somewhere at the bottom of the ocean, no one can ever solve the mystery.

No one knows who invented pencils or when it happened. A Swiss described a pencil in a book in 1965. He said it was a piece ( 0 ) wood with lead inside it. Lead is a very heavy, soft, dark gray metal. Pencils weren’t popular, and people continued to write ( 1 ) pens. They used bird feathers as pens. Then, ( 2 ) 1795, someone started making pencils ( 3 ) graphite, and they became very popular. Graphite is like coal. Coal is black, and we burn it ( 4 ) heat and energy . Today, people make pencils in the same way. They grind the graphite, make it into the shape of a stick, and bake it. Then they put it inside a piece of wood. One pencil can write 50, 000 English words or make line 55 kilometers long. People wrote with feather pens and the use pens with metal points. They had to dip the point ( 5 ) ink after every few letters, Next someone invented a fountain pen that could hold ink inside it. A fountain pen can write several pages before you have to fill it again. Two Hungarian brothers, Ladislao and Georg Biro, invented a ballpoint pen. They left Hungary and started making ballpoint pens in England in 1943 , during World War II. English pilots liked the pens. They couldn‘t write with fountain pens in airplanes because the ink leaked out. Later, a French company called Bic bought the Biros’ company. Some people call ballpoint pens “ Bics.” Australians call them “ biros.” Whatever we call them, we use them every day.

A) of B) on C) to D) at E) from F) in ………………………………………… When the first sailing ship came ( 0 ) the Easter Island in 1722, the captain and crew were afraid to land. They saw giants looking down ( 1 ) them from the high cliffs. The giants didn’t move, so the ship slowly moved closer. Finally , the sailors realized that the giants were the statues. Easter Island is a very small island ( 2 ) the Pacific Ocean. It is more than 2000 miles ( 3 ) the nearest continent (South America ). It is one of the most isolated places ( 4 ) Earth. The biggest statue on Easter Island is over 60 feet high weighs over 100 tons. There are hundreds of smaller ones, about 15 feet high. All statues are made ( 5 ) stone and some wear stone hats. Their faces are solemn and unsmiling. Earlier inhabitants of Easter Island made the statues from the rocks in a volcanic crater. Next they had to move the statues a long distance. In some cases they moved the statues to locations more than ten miles away. No one knows for certain how the inhabitants were able to move the statues. Some scientists say that palm trees grew on Easter Island in the past. They think the inhabitants cut the trees down and placed the statues on the trees. Then groups of seventy or more people rolled the statues to their present locations. Other scientists disagree with this theory because there are no palm trees on the island today. More important, the purpose of the statues is still a mystery. Was the purpose of the statues to prevent strangers from landing on the island? The result, however , has the opposite. Large number of eager people come to look at the statues. Easter Island now has a modern airport, and people come all over the world to visit.

Why would someone decide to stop eating? We know that the body needs food ( 0 ) order to function well. However, many people fast ( 1 ) some time during their lives. Why is this? Some people fast in the political reasons. In the early 20th century, women in England and United States weren’t allowed to vote. In protest many women went ( 2 ) fasts. They hoped that fasting would bring attention ( 3 ) this injustice. Mohandas Gandhi, the famous Indian leader, fasted 17 times in his life. For Gandhi, fasting was a powerful political tool. In 1943, he fasted to bring attention to his country’s need for independence. ( 4 ) 21 days, he went without food. Another famous faster was Cesar Chaves. In the 1960s, he fasted for three weeks. Why? His goal was to bring attention to the terrible conditions of farm workers in the United States. Fasting is also a spiritual practice in many religions. Every year ( 5 ) the month of Ramadan, which is a religious holiday, Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset. Many Hindus fast on special occasions, as do some Christians and Buddhists. Of course, not everyone fasts for political or religious reasons. Some people occasionally fast because it makes them feel better. The American writer Mark Twain thought fasting was the best medicine for common illnesses. Whenever he had a cold or fever , he stopped eating completely. He said that this always made his cold go away. Another American writer , Upton Sinclair, discovered fasting, discovered fasting after years of overeating, indigestion, and headaches. His first fast lasted for 12 days. During this time, his headaches and stomachaches went away. Sinclair said that fasting also made him more alert and energetic. Choosing to go
without food can be vary dangerous. However, that doesn’t stop people from fasting for political, religious, or health reasons.

A) by B) from C) of D) over E) for F) in ………………………………………… More than 5000 years ago, the ancestors ( 0 ) the Navajo people left the cold northern region that is now part of western Canada and Alaska and migrated south what is now the southwestern part of the United States. The area in which the Navajo finally settled is mainly desert. It’s a harsh environment that gets little rain. The animals and plants that live there have had to adapt ( 1 ) order to survive in the unforgiving climate and landscape. When the Navajo arrived in the area, they too had to adapt to the harsh desert conditions in order to survive. They had to learn to make use of the natural resources in their environment to provide ( 2 ) their shelter, food, and other necessities. ( 3 ) time, the Navajo became famous for the things they were able to create ( 4 ) the natural resources at hand. One of the most famous Navajo creations is called sand painting. Most people think of painting as a work of art. For the Navajo, however, sand painting is an important part of a religious ceremony. The making of a sand painting is a part of a healing ceremony that is supposed to restore the health and well-being of a sick person. The only people who are allowed to create sand paintings are specially trained Navajo “singers” or “medicine men” and their assistants. A Navajo singer begins the process of creating a sand painting ( 5 ) collecting
different rocks. The rocks are then crushed and ground into sand. Traditionally, a Navajo singer and his assistants make a sand painting on the floor of a small Navajo house called a hogan. Working under the direction of the singer, the assistants take colored sand in their hands and drip it on the floor in a line. Using different colors, they slowly make a picture. The size of Navajo sand painting varies. A small sand painting is less than a meter wide, while a large sand painting can be over 6 meters wide. The number of singers also varies. A small sand painting may have 2 or 3 people working on it take an hour to complete, while a large painting may require 10 men and women and take all day to finish. During the healing ceremony, the sick person moves onto the completed sand painting. The sick person sits directly on the sand painting so that it can serve as a pathway for evil or illness to leave the person’s body and for goodness or health to return to it. This explains why the Navajo word for sand painting means “the place where gods come and go.” ………………………………..

Salt water covers roughly 71 per-cent ( 0 ) the Earth’s surface, and yet we have much more time exploring the earth’s mountains, forests, and deserts than studying its oceans. Scientists say that we know more ( 1 ) the moon than we know about our oceans. And today, we continue to spend more money ( 2 ) space exploration than on ocean exploration. Why is it that we know so little about the oceans that surround us? Perhaps it is because, for centuries, people thought of the ocean as just a travel network. It was a way to get from one place to another. Most ocean travelers stayed close to the coast. Their goal was not to explore the ocean but rather to find new trade routes for the exchange of spices and other goods. To early sailors, the ocean was also a fighting place, full of dangerous creatures. They thought that, deep below, the ocean was a dark and lifeless place. Believing this, people had little incentive to explore the ocean depth. Ocean exploration was also hampered ( 3 ) the conditions below the surface. The tremendous pressure of the water would crush an unprotected diver. Water temperature on the ocean floor was not inviting either. Vents, or openings, on the ocean floor have temperatures as high as 123 degrees Celsius. To explore ( 4 ) the surface of the ocean, humans needed special equipment. Early diving suits ( 5 ) the late eighteenth century and early nineteenth century were not very useful. One type enclosed the diver’s body in a cylinder, making it difficult to move around. A later type of diving suit replaced the large cylinder with a heavy metal helmet. Air from above the surface traveled through a tube into the helmet. These early diving
suits allowed people to descend fifty feet below the ocean surface for about an hour. In 1872, the first ship equipped for ocean exploration set out on a four-year trip around the world. The ship had two laboratories, and it carried the most advanced scientific equipment of the time. Scientists on the ship tested the temperature and density of sea water. They gathered information about ocean currents and meteorology. They discovered an underwater mountain chain and more than 4OOO new species. The results of this expedition encouraged interest in exploring farther below the ocean surface. To do this, however, divers needed better equipment to protect them from the pressure of water. Two divers, Charles Beebe and Otis Baton, designed one of the early submersible for deep-sea diving. It was a large, hollow, steel ball less than five feet in diameter and weighing, 5000 pounds. A long heavy chain connected the steel ball to a ship above. In 1934, Beebe and Barton descended half a mile below the surface of the ocean in their submersible. From inside the steel ball, they were able to see extraordinary creatures. This was a great breakthrough for ocean exploration, for now people could see the underwater with their own eyes. Since Beebe and Barton’s record-breaking descent, improvements have made in diving equipment, allowing people travel deeper for longer amounts of time. Just twenty-six years after Beebe and Barton’s half-mile descent, Jacques Piccard and two others traveled to a depth, the of 35797 feet, or nearly seven miles, in their own much improved submersible called the Trieste. Even at this great depth, the explorers discovered deep-sea life and new species. The work of deep-sea explorers has given us a picture of life below the surface. There is now greater understanding of the diversity of life in the ocean. We are now more aware of dependence on healthy oceans. Still, less than one tenth of 1 percent of the deep ocean has been explored. Sylvia Earle, one of the leading experts on oceans, says, “We’re in a new century and new millennium, and most of the planet has yet to be seen.”

Tropical rain forests are found in the Amazon region of South America, as well as in Central America, Africa, and Asia. Almost half ( 0 ) the rain forests are in Brazil. Tropical rain forests are very old, thick forests where it rains more than 1.8 meters per year. The oldest rain forest in the world is in Sarawak. It is 10 million years old, and it has 2500 different kinds of trees. In rain forests, there are huge trees forty-five meters high. The lowest branches of the trees are ( 1 ) ten meters above the ground. ( 2 ) the trees, there is another level of plants that consists of many kinds of smaller trees, shrubs, and flowers. Each level of the rain forest is its own world. The lower level is protected by the trees above. The temperature and humidity (the amount of water, or moisture, in the air) stay about the same in the lower level. There is not much sunlight. In the upper level, the sun, rain, and wind change the temperature and humidity often. An amazing animal world lives in the upper level. There are monkeys, members of the cat family, birds, and insects such as bees, butterflies, and many kinds of flies. Other animals that usually live on the ground also live here - mice, ants and even earthworms. This upper level of the forest is thick with plant life because the trees are covered with other plants. Most plants get nutrients from the
ground ( 3 ) their roots. These plants in the upper level take their nutrients from the trees they live ( 4 ) and from the other plants that die there. The animals in the rain forest need “streets” so that they can move along the upper level without going down to the ground. They make paths ( 5 ) along the branches of the trees. A researcher found path that stretched for eighteen meters in one tree. One kind of tiny ant makes a path only three millimeters wide. Unfortunately, humans are still destroying the Earth’s tropical rain forests, Nearly 80000 squire kilometers are being destroyed every year. About a quarter of the destruction comes from people cutting down trees for fuel. Another quarter is to make grassland for their cattle. The remaining trees are cut down to sell the wood or start farms. The population in cities all over the world is growing, and more and more wood is needed to build huge new buildings. For example, 5000 trees from the Sarawak rain forest in Malaysia were used to build just one tall building. If people continue cutting down that many trees in the Sarawak rain forests, all the trees could be gone in eight years. The world needs more food, and it seems like a good idea to clear the rain forests and use the land for agriculture. Many people think that the land under these huge, thick forests must be very rich in nutrients, but it isn’t. This is another surprising thing about rain forests. Most of the land in tropical rain forests is very poor. The plants are able to live because of the dead leaves and other plants that fall to the ground. This carpet of dead plant parts provides nutrients for the living plants. When the land is cleared for the agriculture, there are no longer any plants to die and provide nutrients for living plants. The cycle is broken. Agriculture is unsuccessful because the land cannot support it. ……….. Rain forests cover less than six percent of the Earth’s area, but they have 100000 kinds of plants, probably half of all the kinds of plants on the Earth. Three fourths of all known kinds of plants and animals call the rain forest their home. Twenty percent of our different kinds of medicine come from rain forests. The glue on an envelope and in shoes comes from tropical plants. Rain forests provide materials for hundreds of other products. Rain forests are also very important to the world’s climate. The Amazon rain forest alone receives about 30 to 40 percent of the total rainfall on the Earth and produces about the same percentage of the world’s oxygen. Many scientists believe that the decreasing size of rain forests will affect the climate on the earth, making it uncomfortable or dangerous for life. The destruction of the rain forests is an international problem. One country - or even a few countries can’t solve this problem. The nations of the world must work together to find a solution before it’s too late.

A language is a system of sounds, gestures, or characters used to communicate ideas and feelings. There are roughly 6000 languages in the world today. Some languages are used ( 0 ) millions ( 1 ) people. Others have only a few speakers. All languages have rules for forming words and for ordering those words ( 2 ) meaningful sentences. In written languages, meaning is expressed ( 3 ) a system of characters and rules ( 4 ) combining those characters . Many hearing-impaired people use
sign languages, ( 5 ) which gestures do the work of the sound system of spoken languages. Word order is more important in English than in some other languages such as Russian. The sound system is very important in Chinese and in many languages spoken in West Africa. Languages are always changing, but they change very slowly. People invent new words for their language, borrow words from other languages, and change the meaning of words as needed. For example, the English word bite was invented by computer specialists in 1959. The English word tomato was borrowed from Nahuatl, an American Indian language spoken in Mexico. The English word meet once referred to food in general. There are several major language families in the world. The language in each family are related, and scientists think they come from the same parent family. Language families came in different sizes. The Austronesian family contains at least 500 languages, including Pilipino, Malay, and Maori. The Basque language, spoken in northern Spain, is only member of its family. The Indo-European language family contains fifty-five languages, including English. German, Spanish, Russian, and Hindi are also Indo-European languages. Another language family is Sino-Tibetan, which includes Chinese, Burmese, and Tibetan. The Afro-Asiatic family includes Arabic, Hebrew, and Amharic. There are about 150 American Indian languages spoken today. These languages have many differences among them and have been divided into more than fifty language families. Today 50 percent of the world’s population speaks one of the top fifteen languages. The world’s most common language is Mandarin Chinese, which has more than 1 billon speakers. English is the international language for science and business. In fact, English has more second-language speakers. People learn languages by listening, reading, and using the language. Most children learn their first language easily-and sometimes other languages as well. Adults often must work harder at learning a second language. Recent research indicates that a child’s brain actually learns a new language differently than an adult’s brain does. In one study scientists used a special machine to look at the brains of bilingual adults. Some of the adults learned a second language when they where children, some learned a second language as adults. The study showed that children use the same part their brain to both their fist language and a second language. Adults, on the other hand, used a different area of their brain to process the second language. Languages have come and gone in the past, but they are now disappearing at a rapid rate. Experts estimate that, on average, the world loses a language every two weeks. Some linguists believe that half of the world’s languages could disappear in the next 100 years if we don’t do anything. That would be roughly 3000 languages lost forever. Should we let that happen?
