A.

Every summer, not only boys and men but also girls and women try to swim from England to France or from France to England. The distance (距离) at the nearest point (点) is about 20 miles (英里), but because the waves are very strong, the distance that swimmers must swim is usually more than twice as far.

Captain Web was the first man to cross the English Channel between England and France. This was in August 1875. The Englishman stepped into the water from a beach at Dover (多佛) in England. He spent 21 hours in crossing the English Channel and at last arrived at the French mainland. Since then many swimmers have crossed the English Channel and made time much shorter. In 1960 a Canadian crossed in 10 hours and 23 minutes.

Because the sea is usually cold, swimmers cover their bodies with grease (油脂). This helps them to keep out the cold. They can also eat something, because some men go with them in small boats.

(  )1. Every summer, _____ try to cross the English Channel.

A. boys and men　　B. girls and boys　　C. both boys and men　 D. many swimmers

(  )2. If you want to cross the English Channel, you have to swim ______.

A. more than twenty miles　　　　　　  B. only two miles

C. more than forty miles　　　　　　　  D. about twenty miles

(　)4. No man could swim from England to France or from France to England until _______.

　　 A. 1960.　　　　　  B. 1875.　　　　　 C. 1785.　　　　  D. 1857

(　)5. Why do swimmers cover their bodies with grease when they try to cross the Channel?

　　 A. Because it makes them lose heat (热量)　 B. Because it looks very beautiful

　　 C. Because it makes them young　　　　  D. Because they can eat grease

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 ( B )

　  Babies love chocolate and sometimes they also eat the paper around it. My cat enjoys a meal

Of good, thick paper: old letters, for example. She doesn’t like newspapers very much.

Of course, the best paper comes from wood. Wood comes from trees, and trees are plants. Vegetables and fruit are plants, too, and we eat a lot of them. So can we eat wood and paper?

Scientists say: “All food comes in some way from plants.” “Well, is that true? Animals eat grass and grow fat. Then we eat their meat. Little fish eat little sea plants; then bigger fish swim along and eat the… Chickens eat bits of grass and give us … Think for a minute. What food does not come from plants in some way?

Scientists can do wonderful things with plants. They can make food just like meat and cheese (奶酪). And they can make it without the help of animals. It is very good food too. Now they have begun to say: “We make our paper from wood. We can also make food from wood. The next thing is not very difficult.” What is the next thing? Perhaps it is food from paper. Scientists say: “We can turn paper into food. It will be good, cheap food too; cheaper than meat or fish or eggs.”

So please keep your old books and letters. (Don’t feed them to your cat.) One day, soon, they will be on your plate. There is nothing like a good story for breakfast.

Have you ever seen a book in chains (链子)? Long, long ago very few people could read, hey had no books at home. Books were kept in special libraries. Sometimes the books were chained (用链条锁着) to tables.

In those days people had to write a book with their hands. They drew beautiful pictures in many of the books. They could make only one book at a time and making a book was very slow work. Sometimes it took them years to make one book.
