单选题

In the old days, divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk, because they hoped to find gold and jewels. Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships, but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves, or parts of them. The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.

  One famous sunken ship is the "Lusitania", which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly, 1,500 lives. It has four huge propellers made of an expensive metal. Today each of those propellers is worth $ 300,000 or more. The ship lying on the seabed has been brought by a man called John Light. He paid about $1,200,000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up those propellers and sell them. He also hopes to sell other parts of the ship, when he has brought them to the surface, for about $600,000.

John Light hopes that he may be able to sell all the parts of the "Lusitania", for about____.(  )

单选题

Linda Evans was my best friend-like the sister I never had. We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, horseback riding.

  When I was 13, my family moved away. Linda and I kept in touch through letters, and we saw each other on special time-like my wedding and Linda's. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back, stamped "Address Unknown." I had no idea how to find Linda.

  Over the years, I missed Linda very much. I wanted to share happiness of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Linda could fill.

  One day I was reading a newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked very much like Linda and whose last name was Wagman-Linda's married name. "There must be thousands of Wagmans," I thought, but I still wrote to her.

  She called as soon as she got my letter. "Mrs. Tobin!" she said excitedly, "Linda Evans Wagman is my mother."

  Minutes later I heard a voice that I knew very much, even after 40 years, laughed and cried and caught up on each other's lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled. And there's one thing that Linda and I know for sure: we won't lose each other again!

They haven't kept in touch____.(  )

With the large number of dogs roaring through our communities, people need to know the facts about rabies(狂犬病), a fatal disease caused by animal bites. Despite vaccination(接种疫苗)programs, rabies is still very prevalent, and will continue to be a serious public health problem for many years to come.

  Rabies strikes the central nervous system and brings on choking, convulsions(抽搐)and inability to swallow liquids. It can even cause death. If you or anyone in your family is bitten by dog, cat or other animal, you should not panic, but thoroughly wash the wound with plenty of soap and water and rush to nearby hospital for immediate treatment. If you own the animal which did the biting, you should immediately call a veterinarian for advice and make sure the public health authorities know when and where the biting took place and who was bitten.

Which is the best title of the passage?(  )
