On April 14, 1868, two ships were scheduled to leave the busy port of New York, bound for Europe. The night before, their captains met and had dinner together. The dinner was very ordinary and certainly neither man knew he would soon have a role in one of the world’s greatest mysteries.
The two ships left the next morning. Their names: the Dei Gratia and the Marie Celeste. After several days at sea, Morehouse, the captain of the Dei Gratia, sighted the Marie Celeste, and he immediately recognized
that something was wrong. It was not moving and there was no sign of life on deck. Morehouse and a few of his men took a small boat to the Marie Celeste to investigate. They searched every part of the ship and found nothing: not a man, dead or alive, no sign of illness or combat, no disruption. In fact everything was in good order, as if the crew had left ten minutes before. There was a ten – pound note on a table, with an unfinished letter home near it, a freshly washed stack of clothes in the laundry, and plenty of food and water. These signs of normal, everyday life on an empty ship were the strangest feature of the mystery. What had happened to the captain and crew ? If they had been attacked, why was everything still in its place and why were there no signs of a struggle ? if they had died suddenly from a disease, where were their bodies ?
Investigators searched for the answers to these questions for years and years, but they came up with nothing.
The fate of the men of the Marie Celeste remains as one of the unanswered questions of our time.
1. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. The two ships left for Europe on April 14, 1868.
B. The captains of the two ships planned their meeting at sea on the day before their departure.
C. The captains had dinner together on the night of April 13. 1868.
D. The two ships set sail for Europe on the same day.
2. The captains met …………………………….
A. because they knew they were going to be involved in a mystery.
B. to decide which of the two ships would leave New York first.
C. because they knew they would never see each other again D. just to have dinner together
3. When Morehouse sighted to Marie Celeste, he saw that ……………………………….
A. There were signs of normal, everyday life on board B. it was not moving and there was no sign of life on deck
C. everything about the ship was in terrible disorder D. the crew had left ten minutes before he arrived
4. All of these statements are true EXCEPT ……………..
A. The captain of the Marie Celeste left a letter explaining what had happened
B. The crew of the Dei Gratia completed a thorough search of the Marie Celeste.
C. Captain Morehouse was very surprised to see the Marie Celeste unoccupied
D. Morehouse and his men were mystified to find the contents of the Marie Celeste undisturbed
5. Later investigators ……………………………
A. discovered that the crew of the Marie Celeste had used their food and water and died of starvation
B. concluded that pirates had attacked the Marie Celeste and taken the crew away.
C. were unable to explain what had happened to the crew of the Marie Celeste.
D. finally solved the mystery of the Marie Celeste.
B. Fill in the blank a correct word (2.5 pts )
AGE AND LANGUAGE LEARNING
Most people think that the older you (1) ……………………, the harder it is to learn a new language. That is, they believe that children learn (2) ……………………easily and efficiently than adults. Thus, at some point in our lives, maybe around age 12 or 13, we lose the ability to learn languages well. Is this idea fact (3) ………….. myth?
Is it true that children learn a foreign (4) ……………. more efficiently than adults? On the contrary, research studies suggest (5) ……………. …. the opposite may be true. One report, on 2,000 Danish children studying Swedish, concluded that the teenagers learned more, in less time, than the younger children. Another report, on Americans learning Russian,
showed a direct improvement of (6) ……………………over the age range tested, that is, the ability to learn increased
as the age (7) …………………, from childhood to adulthood.
There are several possible explanations for these (8) ……………………. For one thing, adults know more about the world and therefore are able to understand meanings more easily than children. Moreover, adults can use (9) …………………… thinking to help themselves see patterns in the language. Finally, adults have more self-discipline than children.
All in all, it seems that the (10) ……………… idea that children are better language learners than adults may
not be fact, but myth.
V. Rewrite the second sentence so that it has the same meaning as the first ( 2 pts )
1. I will never forget seeing Uncle Ho.
