25、The question “How long do fish live?” is not as simple as it seems. There are thousands of different kinds of fishes, and they are quite different from each other in size and life period. Whats more, it is not easy to find out just how long a fish lives in its natural state. We can find out how old
26、a fish is by studying its scales, but we can not say how long more it would have lived if we had not caught it. We may keep fishes and record their life period but we cant be sure that this is the length of time they would have lived had they been left alone. We may make marking to show how fast the
27、 fishes grow so that we can calculate the age of the largest on record, but unless this large fish dies of old age we are still not in a position to know its natural life period. Unlike human beings, fishes do not stop growing when they have grown up. They continue to grow as long as they live, alth
28、ough the speed of growth slows down in mature fishes. 56What can the scales of a fish tell us?

Anever stop growing until they come to an end. Bgrow a little more slowly in the state of being mature than fish Cwont grow any
30、 longer when they reach the state of being mature Dslow down their growth speed as they grow older59In the last sentence “mature fishes” refer to fishes.

32、piness.Along the waterways, people greeted each other with “ Good morning, Mrs Mask!”Today, people in Venice still dress up in the strange ways-as armed soldiers, butchers and fishermen, for example.Bars and cafes are filled with party goers who come o show off their beautiful clothes. Their designs
33、 and creations are made by special studios. Readymade costumes are not acceptable.“In the months before the carnival we work overtime to meet the demand.” said a mask-maker. “Many kilometers of silk and lace are made into costumes. For shopkeepers, carnival is the best time of year. The Venice carni
34、val dates back to the Middle Ages. At that time, the city was one of the wealthiest in Europe.The tradition of celebrating with masks and costumes is thought to have been started by the “Stocking Companies.” These were groups of young men who organized parties and festivals and wore colorful stockin
35、gs to distinguish themselves.By the 18th century, the carnival had reached its top. It all came to an end when Napoleon controlled Venice in 1797; local people brought the old traditions back to life.Now the Venice carnival attracts huge crowds from all over the world.

44、ld in the 100, 200, 400 and 800 metres relay, setting two world records in the process. In the same year she achieved the first of her six London Wheelchair Marathon victories.Tannis enduring success had been part motivation(动机), part preparation, The training I do enables me to be a good sprinter (
