I don’t think I can recall a time when I wasn’t aware of the beauty of the ocean Growing up in Australia I had the good fortune of having the sea at my side The first time I went to Halfmoon Bay I suddenly had the feeling of not being able to feel the ground with my feet anymore
For my 10th birthday my sister and I were taken out to the Great Barrier Reef There were fish in different colors caves and layers of coral They made such an impression on me When I learned that only 1 percent of Australia’s Coral Sea was protected I was shocked Australian marine (海洋) life is particularly important because the reefs have more marine species than any other country on earth But sadly only 45 of the world’s reefs are considered healthy
This statistic is depressing so it’s important for us to do everything to protect them The hope that the Coral Sea remains a complete ecosystem has led me to take action I
’ve become involved with the Protect Our Coral Sea activity which aims to create the largest marine park in the world It would serve as a place where the ocean’s species will all have a safe place forever
Together Angus and I created a little video and we hope it will inspire people to be part of the movement Angus also shares many beautiful childhood memories of the ocean as a young boy who grew up sailing admiring the beauty of the ocean and trying to find the secrets of ocean species
28．What can we learn about the author from the underlined sentence in Para 1
A．seldom went surfing at the sea
B．forgot his experiences about the ocean
C．never went back to his hometown

B．It depends on reefs for living greatly

D．It is protected better than that in other oceans
30 What’s the purpose of The Protect Our Coral Sea activity
A．It is intended to contribute to a complete ecosystem
B．It is intended to prevent more marine species being endangered
C．It is intended to set up a large nature reserve for reefs
D．It is intended to raise more teenagers’ environmental awareness
31 Why do Angus and the author create a little video

For high school leavers starting out in the working world it is very important to learn particular skills and practice how to behave in an interview or how to find all internship(实) In some countries schools have programs to help students onto the path to work In the United States however such programs are still few and far between
Research shows that if high schools provide careerrelated courses students are likely to get higher earnings in later years In Germany students as young as 13 and 14 are expected to do internships German companies work with schools to make sure that young people get the education they need for future employment
But in America education reform (改革) programs focus on how well students do in exams instead of bringing them into contact with the working world Harvard Education school professor Robert Schwartz has criticized education reformers for trying to place all graduates directly on the fouryear college track Schwartz argued that this approach leaves the country’s most vulnerable(易受影响) kids with no jobs and no skills
Schwartz believed that the best career programs encourage kids to go for higher education while also teaching them valuable practical skills at high school James Madison High School in New York for example encourages students to choose classes on careerbased courses The school then helps them gain onthejob experience in those fields while they’re still at high school
However even for teens whose schools encourage them to connect with work the job market is daunting In the US unemployment rates for 16to 19yearolds are above 20 percent for the third summer in a row The risk is that if teenagers miss out on the summer job experience they become part of this generation of teens who had trouble in landing a job said Michael a researcher in the US
32 What’s the main idea of the text
A Arguments about recent US education reform
B Tips on finding jobs for high school leavers
C The lack of careerbased courses in US high schools
D Advice for American high school leavers
33 According to Robert Schwartz _________
A there is no need for kids to go for higher education in the US
B teenagers in the US can’t miss out on the summer job experience
C education reform should focus on students’ performance in exams
D students should get contact with the working world at high school
34 The underlined word daunting in Paragraph 5 most probably means __________
A discouraging B interesting C creative D unbearable
35 What can be inferred from the text
A High school leavers with no practical skills can’t find a job at all
B Unemployment rates for US teenagers remain high at the moment
C Students with careerbased courses never have problems finding a job
D US companies work with schools to prepare young people for future employment
