Erden Eruc has been rowing across the Pacific Ocean in a rowboat since he left California on July 10, 2007． He has been heading for Australia with only birds, fish and sharks ever since．

Crossing the Pacific is only part of his journey． Eruc has decided to go all the way around the world using his own energy． He will row, bike, walk and climb the world without help from any motors at all． His plan includes climbing the tallest peak on six of the continents(洲) along the way．

For the first part of his trip, he bicycled 5,546 miles from Seattle, Washington to Mount McKinley in Alaska and back, walked 67 miles to base camp, and climbed 20,320 feet to McKinley’s peak． Now in the second part of his adventure(冒险活动), he is rowing to Australia．

Why would he try to go around the world this way?

Eruc has already faced some difficulties． For example, winds and waves keep pushing him westward when he wants to go south toward the Solomon Islands． If his luck doesn’t change, he will cheerfully change his plan, and aim to land at Papua New Guinea． One way or another, he’s sure he’ll get to his next goal: Australia．

When his trip around the world takes him across land, he enjoys meeting people—especially children． He has already visited many schools and shared his story．

Eruc encourages all kids to set their eyes on a goal and not give up． He says, “With goals, we will make progress, and we will be farther along than when we started, even if we don’t get to some goals． That’s called life!”

I never wanted a dog, but now I’m so glad I have one．

About two years ago, my wife, Cathy, got a little dog with a face only a mother could love． We named her Gertie．

Gertie is the kind of dog that has to grow on you． So I decided that the dog would be trained． This didn’t quite go as planned． At 15 weeks old, she was nearly made to leave the Petsmart Training School． She spent every night lying in our bed-snoring (打鼾) so loudly that I hardly got a good night’s sleep． Then, about six months after she arrived, I felt that something in my heart was taking place, and I was unable to stop it． My behaviour (行为方式) began to change． I began to smile at people when passing them in a street． I returned (招手) from neighbours． I started calling my kids and, to my surprise, they started calling me． I even tried to speak to my grandchildren over the phone once． I even was glad to listen to laughter from a 10-month-old granddaughter． The point is that I was changing． My wife and I both agree that it is Gertie who has changed my behaviour．

Gertie is now nearly two years old and almost fully grown． I have come to like the pet little by little, though she is my wife’s dog．

47．When did the man’s behaviour begin to change?

A．About two years ago．                        B．When Gertie was nearly two years old．

C．When Gertie was 15 weeks old．          D．About six months after Gertie arrived．

48．Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the man’s change?

A．He began to smile at people．              B．He liked helping his neighbours．

C．He started calling his kids．                 D．He spoke to his grandchildren over the phone．

49．What can we learn from this passage?

A．The dog has been trained very well．    B．The man has become more confident．

C．The man has become more friendly．    D．The man likes the dog better than his wife．

50．What’s the best title of this passage?

Do you want to feel happy and know how great you are? Here are five ways to make you feel good about yourself．

Encourage yourself． I look in the mirror and say to yourself, “I am a special person and there’s no one in the world like me． I can do anything． ” It may not sound so good, but it really works!

Helping others． Do something nice for someone and that always makes you feel good．

Smile! Be friendly to people you meet． No one can refuse a big smile． Look for the good things in your friends and family．

Learn something new! Trying new things may be great, and when you fall in love with them or get some progress, you’ll be very happy．
