Two brothers worked together on a farm.  One was married and had a large  36 . The other had no wife yet. Although they lived in different houses, they shared everything they got from their farm.
One day, the single brother said to himself, "It’s not   37 that we share all the rice. I’m   38 and I need less than my brother. " So, every night he took a bag of rice from his store-room and   39 across the field   40  their houses, putting it into his brother’s store-room.
At the same time, the married brother thought, "It’s not fair to share all the rice. I’m married and I have my wife and children to    41  me when I am    42_. However, my brother has no one to take care of his   43  " So, each night he also took a bag of rice and put it into his brother’s store-room.
Several months passed by. They found   44 strange that their rice never became less. Then, one dark night the two brothers ran into each other. Slowly they began to understand what was happening. Their bags fell onto the ground and tears   45  their eyes at once.

Sharks frighten most of us, but Daniel Weaver, a shark scientist, swims with them for a living! We asked him some questions about this unusual job.
So Daniel, what’s it like to be a shark scientist?
Well, it’s a great job. I often travel to faraway places like South Africa and Fiji to study sharks. On the other hand, a shark scientist sometimes does boring desk work, such as writing reports. Also, shark scientists don’t usually get paid a lot.
What qualities (品質(zhì)) do you need to become a shark scientist?
Shark scientists need to be wise and strong. They enjoy working outdoors and they have to be cool and patient (耐心). They also have to be quite brave!
So do you think it’s a dangerous job?
Well, sharks have up to 15 rows of sharp teeth. However, sharks hardly attack (攻擊) humans. There are over 350 kinds of sharks in the world and only about 10 are dangerous to us. In fact, dogs kill more people every year than sharks! Humans kill over 12 million sharks a year for food and sport!
How do you become a shark scientist?
A shark scientist usually studies Marine Science or Zoology at university. It’s also good to get some work experience in an aquarium (水族館). In my opinion, I have the best job in the world!
小題1:_______ questions were asked about Daniel’s unusual job.
A．OneB．TwoC．ThreeD．Four
小題2:As a shark scientist, Daniel _______.
A．studies sharks in his neighbourhoodB．makes lots of money
