Larry was on another of his underwater expeditions(探險(xiǎn))but this time,it was different.He decided to take his daughter along with him.She was only ten years old.This would be her first trip with her father on what he had always been famous for.
Larry first began diving when he was his daughter's age.Similarly,his father had taken him along on one of his expeditions.Since then,he had never looked back.Larry started out by renting diving suits from the small diving shop just along the shore.He had hated them.They were either too big or too small.Then,there was the instructor.He gave him a short lesson before allowing him into the water with his father.He had made an exception.Larry would never have been able to go down without at least five hours of theory and another similar number of hours on practical lessons with a guide.Children his age were not even allowed to dive.
After the first expedition,Larry's later diving adventures only got better and better.There was never a dull moment.In his black and blue suit and with an oxygen tank fastened on his back,Larry dived from boats into the middle of the ocean.Dangerous areas did not prevent him from continuing his search.Sometimes,he was limited to a cage underwater but that did not bother him.At least,he was still able to take photographs of the underwater creatures.
Larry's first expedition without his father was in the Cayman Islands.There were numerous diving spots in the area and Larry was determined to visit all of them.Fortunately for him,a man offered to take him around the different spots for free. Larry didn't even know what the time was,how many spots he dived into or how many photographs he had taken. The diving spots afforded such a wide array of fish and sea creatures that Larry saw more than thirty varieties of creatures.
Larry looked at his daughter.She looked as excited as he had been when he was her age.He hoped she would be able to continue the family tradition.Already,she looked like she was much braver than had been then.This was the key to a successful underwater expedition.

1.When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s,we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep.His name was Mr.Basille.He wore a white cap and drove a white truck.As a 5-year-old boy,I couldn't take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt.He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.
Of course,he delivered more than milk.There was cheese,eggs and so on.If we needed to change our order,my mother would pen a note-"Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery"-and place it in the box along with the empty bottles.And then,the buttermilk would magically(魔術(shù)般) appear.
All of this was about more than convenience.There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen.Mr.Basille even had a key to our house,for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors,so that the milk wouldn't freeze.And I remember Mr.Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table,having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.
There is sadly no home milk delivery today.Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk,thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete.Besides,milk is for sale everywhere,and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.
Recently,an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories.I took it home and planted it on the back porch(門廊).Every so often my son's friends will ask what it is.So I start telling stories of my boyhood,and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.
(1)Mr.Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer
A.to show his magical power
B.to pay for the delivery
C.to satisfy his curiosity
D.to please his mother
(2)What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy's house?
A.He wanted to have tea there.
B.He was a respectable person.
C.He was treated as a family member.
D.He was fully trusted by the family.
(3)Why does home milk delivery no longer exist?
A.Nobody wants to be a milkman now.
B.It has been driven out of the market.
C.Its service is getting poor.
D.It is forbidden by law.
(4)Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?
A.He missed the good old days.
B.He wanted to tell interesting stories.
C.He needed it for his milk bottles.
D.He planted flowers in it.發(fā)布:2025/1/1 16:0:1組卷:16引用:3難度:0.9 -
