Part III Comprehensive Exercises

1．Reading Comprehension．

No one was concerned about the health of the ocean 40 years ago，in spite of the fact that many fisheries were being overharvested，toxic wastes were being dumped in the sea，and developers were beginning to seriously disrupt coastlines．In those days，the magnitude of the problems was small，even though it was obvious that if the trends continued people would face severe economic and personal hardship in the future．People just didn't understand，nor did they care．Unfortunately many of our concerns were realized，but the situation could have been much worse，had not we，and had not others， taken action to inform people about the ocean and the need to protect it．

During our campaign to share the wonders of the sea and alert the public about the need to protect it，we have used every medium available—personal appearances，the printed words， and television．Now there is a new medium that is even more effective than its predecessors．Thanks to the Internet and computers，people can not only receive linear stories，but they can actually participate in them，exploring and learning at their own pace and as their curiosity dictates．I am tremendously impressed with the personalization of what had been labeled by skeptics as the most impersonal medium yet developed．

For these reasons I have made a major commitment of time and resources to dive into this sea of electronic marvels．I'm swimming hard to keep up，but when I look around I find I'm not alone．We are all learning together and it is an adventure I am finding immensely rewarding．I have been encouraged by our first modest venture into this new world：We recently completed a CD-ROM，Jean-Michel Cousteau's World： Cities Under the Sea-Coral Reefs．A couple of months ago I was in Fuji to celebrate the 1997 International Year of the Reef and presented Our Cities Under the Sea CD-ROM to a group of children．I was impressed to see how quickly they grasped our concepts and how they directed their own learning process，thanks to the flexibility of the medium．It was particularly exciting to see kids squeal with delight as they responded to questions and the computer rewarded them when they got the correct answers．

I want young people to experience the mystery and wonder of our oceans．I want them to understand how precious and vulnerable our environment is．Young people need to be taught to take responsibility for ensuring that their heritage will be protected and used wisely． Hopefully the next generation will do a better job than mine has．I believe individuals must be personally involved and I am counting on the Internet to be the medium through which people can experience，learn，and take action．I am counting on young people with their idealism and energy to create a better future—it is too important to be left to bureaucrats and politicians．

1）Forty years ago people were indifferent to the health of the ocean because         ．

A）the ocean was immune to any pollution then

B）they didn't know what happened if the ocean became polluted

C）there was no computer then

D）there wasn't any problem with the ocean at that time

2）The last sentence of the 2nd paragraph tells us that the writer believes that         ．

A）Our predecessors．  B）Politicians．

C）Computers．D）Young people．

2．Short Answer Questions．

At last month's U．S．championships，Johnson won both titles．If he can repeat that feat in Sweden，Johnson will become an even wealthier 27-year-old man．It has been a long time since track stars embodied the“Chariots of Fire”notions of running for God and country．As recently as the 60s，Olympic gold medallists like Bob Hayes and Jim Hines had to learn to run with a football to make a living．Johnson makes no apologies for his professional approach．“This is my job，and I expect someday to support a family on it，”says Johnson，who is currently single．“It's a lovely thought that everybody's out there just running for glory，but those days are gone．”

Sometimes Johnson feels he can't win anything but the races．Criticized as a running machine who never reveals a hint of emotion， Johnson tried to do some image mending at the nationals．He appeared to head for a world record in the 400 when he slowed at the finish line to celebrate the triumph with a high-stepping victory dance—“my Deon Sanders thing，” he called it．Johnson explained that he knew he would just miss the record so；instead，he rewarded fans with a show．But some track insiders wondered if Johnson was saving the world-record effort for a European meet that might pay a bonus of several hundred thousand dollars．

Even Johnson's double-gold challenge has run into criticism．There are many in the American track community who wish he'd concentrate on one race and try to ensure himself an individual gold medal in the coming Olympic Games．

Questions：

1）Who is Johnson？

2）In old days，what were runners running for？

3）What are runners today running for？

4）Why is Johnson criticized as a running machine？

5）What is the expectation of the American track community for Johnson in the coming Olympic Games？
