Last year, however, I took my husband with me to the sales at the large shop in the center of London, We both needed some new clothes and were hoping to find a television set. When we got to Oxford Street, it was so crowded that we decided to split up and meet again at the underground station, so I left my husband and started looking around the shops. Unfortunately all the clothes were in very large sizes and so were not suitable for me. But I did buy a television at a very cheap price, so I felt quite pleased with myself.
When I arrived at the station, my husband was not there. So I sat down in a nearby cafe to have a cup of tea. I quickly finished my tea when I saw my husband and went out to meet him. He looked very happy. Then I saw he was carrying a large and heavy cardboard box. "Oh, dear! "I thought. Yes, we had no new clothes but two televisions. We shall not be going to the sales again.

But actually this question is not as simple as it seems. There are thousands of different kinds of fishes, and they vary a great deal in size and life span. Moreover, it is not easy to find out just how long a fish lives in its natural state. We can find out how old a fish is by studying its scales, but we cannot say how much more time it would live if we had not caught it.
We may rear fishes and record their life span but we cannot be sure that this is the length of time they would have lived, had they been left alone.
We may make marking to show how fast the fishes grow so that we can calculate the age of the largest on record, but unless this large fish dies of old age we are still not in a position to know its natural life span.
Unlike human beings, fishes do not stop growing when they reach maturity. They continue to grow as long as they live, although the rate of growth slows down in mature fishes.
People often ask the specialist on fishes regarding its _______.
A.size
B.life span
C.age
D.variety
The specialist is embarrassed by the question because _______.A.he does not know the answer
B.there is no answer to the question
C.it is a silly and simple question for him
D.there is no definite answer to this question
We can know a fish’s age from its ______.A.weight
B.size
C.scales
D.length
Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.Different kinds of fishes have different life spans.
B.It is hard for the specialist to know the length of time a fish lives in its natural state
C.Mature fishes grow more quickly than young ones.
D.The specialist makes marking to know the rate of growth of fishes so that they know the age of the largest ones.
Human beings, unlike fishes, _______.A.stop growing when they reach maturity
B.grow faster after maturing
C.continue to grow as long as they live
D.have a short life span

Inside, the area that normally had seats had become a long white tunnel. Heavily padded(填塞) from floor to ceiling, it looked a bit strange. There were almost no windows, but lights along the padded walls illuminated it. Most of the seats had been taken out, apart from a few at the back, where the young scientists quickly took their places with a look of fear.
For 12 months, science students from across the continents had competed to win a place on the flight at the invitation of the European Space Agency. The challenge had been to suggest imaginative experiments to be conducted in weightless conditions.
For the next two hours, the flight resembled that of an enormous bird which had lost its reason, shooting upwards towards the heavens before rushing towards Earth. The invention was to achieve weightlessness for a few seconds.
The aircraft took off smoothly enough, but any feelings that I and the young scientists had that we were on anything like a scheduled passenger service were quickly dismissed when the pilot put the plane into a 45-degree climb which lasted around 20 seconds. Then the engines cut out and we became weightless. Everything became confused and left or right, up or down no longer had any meaning. After ten seconds of free-fall descent(下降) the pilot pulled the aircraft out of its nosedive. The return of gravity was less immediate than its loss, but was still sudden enough to ensure that some students came down with a bump.
Each time the pilot cut the engines and we became weightless, a new team conducted its experiment. First it was the Dutch who wanted to discover how it is that cats always land on their feet. Then the German team who conducted a successful experiment on a traditional building method to see if it could be used for building a future space station The Americans had an idea to create solar sails that could be used by satellites.
After two hours of going up and down in the lane doing their experiments, the predominant feeling was one of excitement rather than sickness. Most of the students thought it was an unforgettable experience and one they would be keen to repeat.
What did the writer say about the plane?
A.It had no seats.
B.It was painted white.
C.It had no windows.
D.The outside was misleading.
