17、ly on his other senses. Thats because he is completely blind.When Derek was born over 24 years ago, he got his name from Derek Ho, the first Hawaiian surfing world champion. A surfing enthusiast himself, Ernesto dreamed that his son would share the talent(才干) of his uncle, a professional surfer. Unf
18、ortunately, Derek was born completely blind, but this didnt stop his family from believing that he could do anything he wanted, even if that meant becoming a surfer.At age 2, Derek received a bodyboard and the beaches of Guarapari, Brazil, became his backyard. He was always comfortable in the water
19、and surfing was in his blood, but he didnt actually try riding a wave until he turned 17, when his father bought him a surfboard. His father taught him the basics and encouraged him to keep practising, but after successfully standing up on the surfboard, Derek knew he needed to become much better if
20、 he was going to achieve Emestos dream and become a professional surfer. So he joined the Praia do Moroo surf school, where he studied under coach Fabio Maru.Standing up on a surfboard and conquering small waves is one thing, while gathering the courage to take on Hawaiis board-breaking Pipeline is
21、another. But thats exactly what Derek Rabelo set out to do just months after learning how to surf. Everyone told him it was too dangerous, but he felt he could do it. And he did, earning the praise of famous professional surfers like Kelly Slater and Mick Fanning. Now 24, Rabelo has been surfing the

25、. Courageous but stubborn.D. Skillful but proud CMany science fiction stories tell about explorers arriving in a new world. The explorers then use some kind of high-tech device to test for breathable air or signs of life. But here on Earth, science fiction is becoming reality through a new sampling
26、technology called environmental DNA, or eDNA for short. Scientists can use it to identify rare species or estimate fish populations with just a little air or water.Environmental DNA can be used in two ways. One is to identify the creatures that live in a certain place. The other is to confirm the pr
27、esence or lack of a specific creature. Caren Goldberg is one of the first biologists to take the technology from the testing stage to actually using it. She sees eDNA as a way to get answers more efficiently and with less destruction compared to traditional survey techniques. Until recently, scienti
28、sts depended on snorkeling (潜水), netting or using an electric current to temporarily catch fish. This newer way to identify what lives in the environment is becoming popular around the world. Animal experts in Vietnam are using the eDNA to find the last, wild Yangtze giant softshell turtles. One res
29、earcher on the Caribbean island of Trinidad is using the sampling technology to find endangered golden treefrogs. In Madagascar, it is being used to identify amphibian(两栖动物)diseases. Ms Goldberg has used eDNA testing to confirm the local extinction (灭绝) of a leopard frog in the American state of Ida
30、ho. She has also been asked to document the spread of the New Zealand mudsnail in the state of Washington. The creature has been found in lakes and other waterways across the state.

33、eplace scientists soon.31. What is the best title for the text? A. Biologists Explore Space with the Help of eDNA B. Science Fiction Becomes Reality for Species SurveysC. Scientists Found Methods to Test for Signs of LifeD. New Technologies Are Presented in Science FictionsDWhen you were at school,
34、the last thing you probably wanted to do was to spend your weekends going to work. There was homework to do, sports to play and fun to have. But our parents probably persuaded us to find a job to earn some money and get some life experience. When I was a teenager I delivered newspapers to peoples ho
35、mes. I then progressed to a Saturday job in a supermarket: stacking shelves and working at the checkout. Today in the UK you are allowed to work from the age of 13, and many children do take up part-time jobs. Its one of those things that are seen almost as a rite of passage(成人仪式). Its a taste of in
36、dependence and sometimes a useful thing to put on your CV(简历). Teenagers agree that it teaches valuable lessons about working with adults and also about managing their money. Some research has shown that not taking up a Saturday or holiday job could be deleterious to a person later on. A 2015 study
37、by the UK Commission on Employment and Skills found that not participating in part-time work at school age had been blamed by employers organizations for young adults being ill-prepared for full-time employment, but despite this, recent statistics have shown that the number of schoolchildren in the
38、UK with a part-time job has fallen by a fifth in the past five years. So, does this mean that British teenagers are now afraid of hard work? Probably not. Some experts feel that young people feel going out to work will affect their performance at school, and they are under more pressure now to study
39、 hard and get good exam results and a good job in the long term. However, Geoff Barton, general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders, told BBC News that Properly regulated part-time work is a good way of helping young people learn skills that they will need in their working liv
