六、阅读理解（本题有15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） (共4题；共15分)
16. （3分）阅读下列短文，从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

It is park at the bottom of the ocean. It's cold down there too. There's no air to breathe. The water pressure is high. There may be fishes that could hurt you. The deep sea can be an unpleasant place. But people are still fascinated by it, not just because of the amazing scenery. The seafloor might hold the secret to the beginning of life on Earth.
Oceans cover more than two-thirds of our planet. Yet, we have explored just a small part of the underwater world. A new project is there to explore the ocean deeper. A new US machine can carry people down to as deep as 6,500 metres. It will take the place of an older machine called Alvin. The old one has been in use for 40 years, but it can only go down to 4,500 metres. Alvin played a key role in many important tasks. Alvin helped biologists collect worms, chemists gather rocks, and oceanographers (海洋学家) map the seafloor and take water sample (样本).
But now it's about time for a new one. The new machine will be like Alvin. It'll also be about 27 feet long, about the size of a small school bus. The seating area inside will be small, about two metres wide. Like Alvin, it'll carry a pilot and two passengers. It will be able to move like Alvin does. It'll give passengers more chances to enjoy the view. Alvin has only three windows. The new one will have five. It will travel more than a mile an hour faster than Alvin. Getting to the bottom faster and moving around more quickly will allow researchers to make the most of their time underwater.
（1）According to the passage, at the bottom of the sea, ________.
①it is park
②people hide some secrets
③there may be dangerous fishes
④there is no scenery
⑤it is cold
⑥there is high water pressure
A . ①②③④
B . ①④⑤⑥
C . ①③⑤⑥
D . ①③④⑥
（2）The underlined word "fascinated" in Paragraph 1 has the similar meaning as ________.
A . surprised
B . attacked
C . attracted
D . controlled
（3）How many metres deeper will the new machine be able to go down the sea than Alvin?
A . 2,000.
B . 4,500.
C . 6,500.
D . 11,000.
（4）This passage is mainly about ________.
A . the deep oceans
B . new science and technology
C . a new project exploring the deeper sea
D . a new machine called Alvin

Jonah Swann studies at Reed Middle School in the US. But after school, the 13-year-old boy works as the CEO of The Kandle Company, which makes candles. Swann's candles are different from most other candles on the market. They are made of soy wax(大豆蜡)and have non-zinc wicks（无锌蜡烛芯）. This makes them burn cleanly.

Twenty years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. Once at midnight, an old lady in her 80s took my taxi. She gave me an address, and then asked, "Could you drive through downtown?"
"It's not the shortest way," I answered quickly.
"Oh, I don't mind," she said. "I'm in no hurry. I'm on my way to a hospice (临终关怀医院）. I don't
have any family left. The doctor says I don't have very long time."
I quietly shut off the meter. "What route would you like me to take?" I asked.
For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she and her husband had lived, the place where she danced as a girl. As the sun was rising, she asked me to go to the address she had given me.
"How much do I owe you?" she asked, reaching into her purse.
"Nothing," I said.
"You have to make a living," she answered.
"There are other passengers."
"You gave an old woman a little moment of joy," she said. "Thank you."
I drove into the fine morning light. Behind me, a door shut. It was the sound of the closing of
a life. I drove aimlessly（漫无目的地），lost in thought. For the rest of that day, I could hardly talk. What if that woman had gotten an angry driver, or one who was impatient to end his shift? What if I had refused to take the run?
