(855) 898-2498BLarry was on another of his underwater expeditions(探险)but this time, it was different. He decided to take his daughter along with him. She was only ten years old. This would be her first trip with her father on what he had always been famous for.Larry first began diving when he was his daughters age. Similarly, his father had taken him along on one of his expeditions. Since then, he had never looked back. Larry started out by renting diving suits from the small diving shop just along the shore. He had hated them. They were either too big or too small. Then, there was the instructor. He gave him a short lesson before allowing him into the water with his father. He had made an exception(例外). Larry would never have been able to go down without at least five hours of theory and another similar number of hours on practical lessons with a guide. Children his age were not even allowed to dive.After the first expedition, Larrys later diving adventures only got better and better. There was never a dull moment. In his black and blue suit and with an oxygen tank fastened on his back, Larry dived from boats into the middle of the ocean. Dangerous areas did not prevent him from continuing his search. Sometimes, he was limited to a cage underwater but that did not bother him. At least, he was still able to take photographs of the underwater creatures.Larrys first expedition without his father was in the Cayman Islands. There were numerous diving spots in the area and Larry was determined to visit all of them. Fortunately for him, a man offered to take him around the different spots for free. Larry didnt even know what the time was, how many spots he dived into or how many photographs he had taken. The diving spots afforded such a wide range of fish and sea creatures that Larry saw more than thirty varieties of creatures.Larry looked at his daughter. She looked as excited as he had been when he was her age. He hoped she would be able to continue the family tradition. Already, she looked like she was much braver than had been then. This was the key to a successful underwater expedition.24. In what way was this expedition different for Larry? A. His daughter had grown up. B. He had bee a famous diver.C. His father would dive with him. D. His daughter would dive with him.25. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?A. Larry had some privileges. B. Larry liked the rented diving suits.C. Divers had to buy diving equipment. D. Ten-year-old children were permitted to dive.26. Why did Larry have to stay in a cage underwater sometimes? A. To admire the underwater view. B. To dive into the deep water. C. To protect himself from danger. D. To take photo more conveniently.27. What can be learned from the underlined sentence?A. Larry didnt wear a watch. B. Larry was not good at math.C. Larry had a poor memory. D. Larry enjoyed the adventure.CThe concept of a working holiday is fairly simple. It is a vacation which normally lasts for several weeks or even months, during which you divide your time between work and recreation. The typical working holiday includes some manual labor and sightseeing. You can usually get room and board in exchange for a few hours of work. For instance, Australia and New Zealand encourage working holidays by offering one-year visas to people between the ages of 18 and 30. Countries all over the world offer the chances to work or volunteer and live in a new environment. All you need is a return ticket and enough cash to live on. While some people choose to work in restaurants or hotels, others may do fruit picking which is perhaps the most popular type of work. Be prepared for long working days in the orchard, which may last up to ten hours a day. If you are not ready for this, a more leisurely job with shorter hours is possible, but you will not make as much money. Another option is volunteering in foreign countries. For example, you can work with disabled children in Bolivia and practice your Spanish, research dolphins and whales in Italy, or build schools in rural towns in Ghana. A working holiday is a great way to broaden your horizons since it gives you the chance to explore a country, practice a new language, and meet people from all over the world. These kinds of adventures sometimes have a really big impact on those who have experienced a working holiday. They often say that it was one of the best memories of their lives. Be aware! Even though some working vacation programs pay, not all of them do sometimes you end up paying to go on working vacation. However, a working holiday can get you off the beaten track and into spots the average tour bus would never go near.28. What can you get in exchange for a few hours of work?A. Recreation and money. B. A return ticket. C. Free transportation. D. Meals and shelter. 29. Whats the second paragraph mainly about?A. The idea of a working holiday. B. Ways to spend a working holiday. C. Great places for a working holiday. D. Volunteering in foreign countries. 30. What does “the beaten track” in the third paragraph refer to?A. Roads in poor condition. B. Broken railway tracks. C. Routes taken by many tourists. D. Spots where you might get beaten. 31. What does the writer remind readers to do in the last paragraph?A. Check what you must pay for. B. Meet proper people. C. Be prepared for adventures. D. Broaden your horizons.DIn an effort to discourage people from using plastics, scientists have been hard at work inventing alternative packaging products.
