Sharks have lived in the oceans for over 450 million years, long before dinosaurs appeared. There are now about 360           of sharks, whose size, behavior, and other characteristics differ widely.
Every year, we catch and kill over 100 million sharks,           for food and for their fins. Dried shark fins are used to make shark fin soup, which sells for as much as $50 a bowl in fine Hong Kong           . Other sharks are killed for sport and out of fear. Sharks are vulnerable(脆弱的) to overfishing because it         most species 10 to 15 years to begin reproducing and they produce only a few offspring.
        by movies and popular novels, most people see sharks as people-eating monsters. This is far from the          . Every year, a few types of shark injure about 100 people worldwide and kill about 25. Most          are by great white sharks, which often feed on sea lions and other marine mammals. They sometimes mistake human swimmers for their normal prey,           if they are wearing black wet suits.
If you are a typical ocean-goer, your         of being killed by an unprovoked (无缘无故的)attack by a shark are about 1 in 100 million. You are more            to be killed by a pig than a shark and thousands of times more likely to get killed when you drive a car.
Sharks help           human lives. In addition to providing people with food, they are helping us learn how to           cancer, bacteria, and viruses. Sharks are very healthy and have aging processes similar to ours. Their highly effective immune system          wounds to heal quickly without becoming infected, and their blood is being studied in connection with AIDS research.
Sharks are among the few animals in the world that almost          get cancer and eye cataracts. Understanding why can help us improve human           . Chemicals extracted from shark cartilage have killed cancerous tumors in laboratory animals.

Considering how much time people spend in effects, it is important that with A be well designed. Well-designed office spaces help create a corporation's image. They motivate workers and they make an impression on people who visit and might be potential, or1, customers. They make business work better, and they are a part of the corporate culture to live in.
As we move away from an industrial-based economy to a knowledge-based one, office designers come up with2to the traditional work environments of the past. The design industry has moved away from a fixed office setup and created more flexible "strategic management environments." These3solutions are meant to support better organizational performance.
As employee hierarchies (等级制度)have flattened or decreased, office designers' response to this change has been to move open-plan areas to more desirable locations within the office and create fewer formal private offices. The need for increased flexibility has also been4by changes in workstation design. Office and work spaces often are not5to a given person on a permanent basis. Because of changes to methods of working, new design allow for expansion or movement of desks, storage, and equipment within the workplace. Another important design goal is communication, which designers have improved by breaking the walls that6workstations. Designers have also created informal gathering places and upgraded employees'7to heavily trafficked areas such as copy and coffee rooms.
Corporate and institutional office designers often struggle to resolve a number of competing and often8demands, including budgetary limits, employees hierarchies and technological innovation (especially in relation to computerization). These demands must also be balanced with the need to create interiors (内饰) that in some way enhance, establish or possess a company's image and will enable employees to9and their best.

When I was a little boy, I would play outside for hours on sunny summer days and then have a deep and peaceful sleep at night. Sometimes, I’d have some vivid dreams, making me        for a moment. I would stare out into the darkness to see if anything was there and then         over and go back to sleep. I can still remember a few times when I woke up,       out into the darkness, and actually       someone there. It was Mom          over me as I slept. Each time she         told me to go back to sleep and I closed my eyes again, feeling         and loved.
I          asked Mom why she watched me sleep from time to time, but            seeing my own children        so fast, I think I know why. She wanted to catch a moment in time and        it in her heart forever. I just       that she carried a lot of those moments with her into Heaven when she         at only 55.
Last night I was sleeping lightly         I suddenly felt someone near me. I opened my eyes and saw Mom’s         standing in the room, smiling at me. And then she was gone.
Now       may say that this was just a dream, a wish or part of an old       . To me, though, it was       that Mom’s loving spirit was still watching over me. To me, it was evidence enough to know that one day I would be       with her and everyone I have ever loved.
Trust in their love. Know that your own life can be full of     , too. Then joyfully go out and live it with a brave heart and a smiling soul.

One Bite at a Time
Stephen was on campus(校园)to register when I first met him.
One summer day       I was headed over to the administration building, I heard someone call my name. I         around and saw Philip, one of my colleagues standing with another young man. As Philip introduced me to the young man, named Stephen, he reminded him that he would be taking one of my          , Introduction to Literature. With a somewhat        expression, Stephen asked if my class was going to be “hard”. Would he be able to pass? I      he was concerned about failing before the       day of classes. We talked about what the class would       and I saw Stephen’s eyes getting big with       .
Then I remembered a bit of classical dialog:
Question: “How do you eat an elephant?”
Answer: “One bite at a time.”
I told him to       his work that way. To do his assignment(作业), all of them, and to get them in on time. I added that most       students I knew made a timetable of all the assignment so they could        their workload.
As time went on, I learned more of Stephen’s story. He had       in middle school. It had taken him longer to finish than most young people. Family members, including his mother, kept reminding him that he was a      . Now, in the face of their negative-saying he had been admitted into college. He told me that before coming to our campus no one had believed he had much      .
Stephen didn’t become an “A” student. He didn’t make any honor rolls. Still, he managed to        most of his courses by being in class every day, turning in all of his assignment on time and breaking down his studying into      digestible parts. By passing course after course he began to gain a measure of self-respect. He was a great singer and he was       the school’s cross-country team.
Every time I saw him on campus, he would brighten up and say, “One bite at a time.” Whenever he introduced me to his friends, he would tell them that he was             when he was supposed to be failing. His       , he said, was that he was        what I taught him before classes ever started: “Take it one bite at a time.”

For most, getting your first car opens up a new world of freedom and allows you to go wherever you want, whenever you want. Getting a car did         this for me, and it also brought my best friend and me     . But then it tore us apart.
My best friend lives three minutes from my      . Since her       is in late summer, seven months behind mine, I basically became her       when I turned 16 in December.
