Last summer I took a trip to an island. I had a lot of fun. I sat and watched the waves and listened to the ocean. I learned to identify birds. I discovered pretty things and enjoyed the taste of new foods. It was a very nice time.

One evening I took a pleasant walk by the ocean. When the waves came in, many starfish fell on the beach. Some starfish went back into the water, and they were safe. But other starfish were still on the sand. They would die if they did not get into the water. There were many starfish on the beach that night. It made me sad, but I knew I could not fix the problem. I stepped very carefully so I did not damage them.

Then I saw a little girl. She was also sad about the starfish. She wanted to prevent all of them from dying. She asked me if I could perhaps help her.

"To be frank, I don't think we can do anything," I said.

The little girl started to cry. She sat back against a rock and thought for a while. Finally, the emotion was gone. She stopped crying and stood up. Then she picked up a starfish and threw it into the water.

"What are you doing?" I asked her. But she did not answer me. She just threw as many starfish as she could. "You cannot save all of them!" I said.

She stopped to look at me. "No, I cannot save them all," she replied. Then she picked up a very big starfish and said, "But I can save this one. " And then she smiled and threw the starfish as far as she could into the ocean.

Vanuatu is an island nation in the South Pacific. It is one of the smallest countries in the world. But for those who are interested in adventure and sport, there is a lot to do. Some of the best swimming, snorkeling(潜游) and sea kayaking(海上游艇) can be found here. Vanuatu's islands offer visitors two of the most exciting and dangerous activities in the world: volcano(火山) surfing and land diving.

Volcano Surfing

On Tanna Island, Mount Yasur rises 300 meters into the sky. Yasur is an active volcano, and it erupts(爆发) almost every day, sometimes several times a day. For centuries, people have climbed this mountain to visit the top. Recently, people have also started climbing Yasur to surf the volcano. In some ways, volcano surfing is like surfing in the sea, but in other ways it's very different. Volcano surfers try to escape the erupting volcano—without getting hit by flying rocks!  It's fast, fun and dangerous—the perfect extreme sport(极限运动).

Land Diving

Most people are familiar with bungee jumping, but do you know bungee jumping started on Pentecost Island in Vanuatu and is almost fifteen centuries old? The original activity, first called land diving, is part of a religious ceremony(宗教仪式). A man ties tree vines(树藤) to his legs. He then jumps head-first from a high tower to touch the earth with the top of his head—without breaking the vine or hitting the earth hard. Every spring, island natives(men only) still take part in this amazing test of bravery.

36、What's the writer's purpose? ______

A．To talk about the world's best volcano surfers and land divers.

B．To introduce volcano surfing ,and land diving.

C．To talk about the dangers of volcano surfing and land diving.

D．To introduce the origin of volcano surfing.

The first emperor of China, Qin Shihuang, accomplished a huge amount of achievements during his rule. Between 221 and 210 B. C. , he started the construction of the Great Wall. He built a large network of roads. He introduced a new writing system, currency(货币), and a set of measurement. The emperor also ordered the construction of a huge army of life-sized terracotta soldiers. These, he hoped, would protect his tomb after his death.

The soldiers in Xi'an's terracotta museum are today light brown, but they weren't always. They began as an army of red, blue, yellow, green, white, and purple. Sadly, most of the colors did not last to the present day. After being exposed to air during excavation(挖掘) the coating under the paint began to fall off. The paint disappeared in less time than it takes to boil an egg, taking with it important pieces of history.

Now new techniques are starting to reveal the army's true colors. Archaeologists have recently discovered an area with more than a hundred soldiers. Many of these still have their painted features, including black hair, pink faces, and black or brown eyes. Chinese and German researchers have developed a special liquid to help preserve the soldiers' colors. After they find a soldier or other artifacts(手工艺品), archaeologists spray it with the liquid. They, then, cover it in plastic.

Archaeologists are also finding colors in the dirt around the soldiers. It's important not to disturb the dirt, so the colors won't be lost. "We are treating the earth as an artifact," says archeologist Rong Bo, the museum's leading chemist. The next challenge, says Rong, is to find a way to apply the colors to the army again. Once that happens, artists can bring Emperor Qin's army back to life in full, vivid color.

41、The reading is mainly about ______.

A．the achievements of Emperor Qin

B．the original colors of terracotta soldiers

C．the soldiers' life under Emperor Qin

D．the building of the terracotta soldiers

42、The emperor built the terracotta soldiers to ______.

A．show the greatness of the Qin Dynasty

B．be enjoyed by people

C．protect Emperor Qin's tomb

D．protect the dynasty

43、The word "light" in Paragraph 2 means ______.

A．not dark    B．not brown

C．not fatty    D．shining

44、What is true about terracotta soldiers in Paragraph 2? ______

A．Their colors disappeared very quickly.

B．The soldiers' paint fell off because of the high temperature.

C．Most of the original colors have not been kept till today.

D．The history of the Qin Dynasty disappeared.

45、According to Rong Bo, ______.

A．the soldiers' true colors can be restored

B．the earth around the soldiers is destroyed

C．archaeologists can only guess the soldiers' original colors

D．artists should be able to paint the soldiers in any color they want
