29、ould see the terrible destruction on the coast, but the harbor itself was in fairly good shape. After all, it was protected by the arms of a bay that had only one tiny channel to the sea. As we got on board, we noticed two big humps(脊背) in the distance.On approaching them, we saw it was a mother wha
30、le with her baby. We couldnt believe itthere arent any whales along the coast here. The storm must have driven them across the ocean in the bay, in which the still water was so badly polluted that nothing could survive.The little baby whaleactually as big as our boatwas obviously stuck and could not
31、 move. The mother dived under the water and came up suddenly, making big whirlpools(漩涡) and waves. “Shes trying to help her baby, but on the wrong side,” my father said. At this point, my father moved our boat in a semicircle to the other side and, heading the boat toward the baby whale, pushed it g
32、ently. With our several gentle pushes the big hump turned over and disappeared under water. Then it swam up right beside its mum. They struggled in their desperate attempts to escape but missed the exit and started heading in the wrong direction. We hurried up to the whales and tried to lead them to
33、wards the bay channel. Slowly, they let us lead them, sometimes rising from the water right beside us to breatheand to give us a trusting look with those huge eyes. Once they hit their first part of clean water flowing straight form the sea, the mum gave us a wave with her tail and off they swam int
34、o the distance.In the excitement it had felt like only a few minutes, but we had been with those wonder animals for almost an hour and a half. That was the simple and lasting beauty of the day.

38、neering, science and technology, are developing a range of inventions that they hope will one day be marketable. Here are three examples from the minds of these inventors.Foot-controlled mouse is a new kind of mouse. It is controlled by the feet instead of the hands, to help the disabled when they s
39、urf the Internet. It looks like a pair of blue slippers. When users press the slippers with their forefeet, they are clicking the left mouse button; when people press with their heels, they are clicking the right mouse button; when they roll their feet over the slippers, they can view web pages.Dirt
40、y water filter(过滤器) can make dirty water drinkable, which is a good way to solve the lack of water and also does good to the environment.

41、e. Someone told us that water was sent by air to Wenchuan. If they had sent water-purifying plant instead, people could have had more water after the earthquake.Transformer car is named Tranfus. By changing the size of tyres and the structure of a car, it can become a motorbike or a luggage carrier.

If one child wants to play the Play Station, all the other children are suddenly interested in doing the same thing quickly abandoning whateve
46、r has previously held their attention. This is human nature playing itself out in children. People often think that what someone else has or is doing is more desirable than what they have or are doing. They will abandon their own wish to participate in the wish of another so that they do not lose so
47、mething better. Children start this at a young age.Parents and childcare workers often see the children fighting for rights to one toy rather than being satisfied with playing with something else. The best way to help children overcome this human habit is to teach them to consider others more import
48、ant than themselves. They need to respect other people. So if Johnny wants to use the Play Station unbroken, then the other children should not fight to take it from him. Johnny should also care about the other children and render the controller to them in a fair amount of time.If a child is always
49、grabbing everything for himself, then there is a problem that needs working out. If a child is always dissatisfied with what he has and wants what the other child has, then that needs to be talked about. Parents can use these fights over toys to help their children understand how to treat others rig
50、ht. This does not always mean punishment. Teach the child the way that he should go and he will not depart from it. Instruct him wisely. Have the child apologize to the other child if he has infringed upon(侵犯) his rights. Teach love, forgiveness, self-control, and kindness. Practice this in your lif
51、e and the child will learn that this is the better way and live accordingly. Next time all the children are fighting for the same toy, use it as an object lesson to teach them these things.68.

58、 invented by another Briton, Tim Berners-Lee.The guests who attended the wedding ceremony gave more than a few clues as to the nature of modern Britain.
