But the young salmon takes 2 years to swim down the rivers towards the Pacific Ocean. For another 2 years it lives in the sea and becomes fully grown. Then it returns to the river where it was born.A grown-up salmon weighs about 25 pounds and is nearly three feet long. The female salmon will not lay the eggs in the Pacific Ocean. When it is almost time to lay them, both male and female salmon begin a great journey. Each salmon is heading for the river where it was born. A salmon may be a thousand miles from where its life began, yet it is able to return to that place.As the salmon swim, larger fish attack them. The salmon are food for some other fish. Some are caught by fishermen. The salmon that are left keep swimming.After they enter the rivers, they head upstream. If rocks and waterfalls are in their way, the salmon leap(跳) over them. A salmon can leap up a fall as high as ten feet. It leaps by swimming at full speed under water, then rising to the surface. Almost the whole body of a salmon is made of muscle(肌肉). It is these powerful muscles that make the salmon fit for fast swimming, turning quickly, and leaping high out of the water.Some reach their river in summer, others in the early autumn. They have come hundreds, even thousands of miles and it has taken them weeks and months.36. Which of the following is TRUE about the young salmon?A. It is born in a river and grows up in a river.B.

Everywhere tall rocks rise straight up into the sky. You will be surprised to see that the rocks seem to move about, because the light of day, ever changing, makes them seem to move.As you study the great rocks, they seem to turn into strange shapes.

The Indians living there have trouble finding water, and most of them are raising sheep. In one place you can find prints of hands left by Indian men, women and children. The place is called the House of Many Hands.There is one rock with a hole through it. This large hole looks like a very big ear. In the winter, the wind makes strange sounds as it blows through the hole. Indians call the hole the Ear of the Wind.At sunset, the sun will turn the great rocks to shining red and gold.

Discovery Trips in the Blue MountainsDThe Roosevelt dime (一角銀幣) shows the portrait of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, 32nd President of the United States.This dime first appeared a year after the end of World War II. It was important in 1946 that this new coin carried the symbols and messages of Americas wish for world peace. Also during that year, the United Nations, newly formed, was trying to bring brotherhood to all the Earths people. America had become a world power. The eyes of the rest of the western world looked to the United States for leadership.President Franklin D. Roosevelt is the only President in Americas history to be elected to four terms of office. Born in 1882, at Hyde Park, New York, he first served in the New York State Senate. In 1913, he was made Assistant Secretary of the Navy.In the prime of his life, with many outstanding successes, he became paralyzed (癱瘓的) from the waist down. He fought hard against his illness but never succeeded. He spent the rest of his life in a wheelchair. In spite of his illness, he continued to work hard and in 1929 was elected governor of New York.When Roosevelt became President, America had just suffered a serious depression and thousands of people were without jobs. He immediately went to work to solve the nations problems by setting up government organizations to offer jobs. He was elected again in 1936, in 1940 and once more in 1944.Roosevelt is best remembered for his strong leadership during World War II and for his many inspiring speeches. He was the first President to speak regularly to the American people over the radio. In 1933 he said with determination, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.”As war broke out throughout the world and Americas sons fought in faraway places, the nation stood firmly beside Roosevelt as he led the people for freedom across Africa, Europe and Asia. But the President was never to see the final victory. He died in Warm Springs, Georgia, on April 12, 1945, less than a month before the war ended. Roosevelts portrait on the dime is more than a design of a coin. It is an everlasting memorial to a courageous leader.47.
