Dear 17﹣year﹣old self，
When your Laker dream comes true tomorrow， you need to figure out a way to invest in the future of your family． This sounds simple， and you may think it's a no﹣brainer， but take some time to think on it further．
I said INVEST．
I did not say GIVE
Let me explain．
Purely giving material things to your siblings（兄弟姐妹） may appear to be right decision． So you buy them a car， a big house， pay， all of their bill． You want them to live a beautiful comfortable life， right？
But the day will come when you realize that as much as you believed you were doing the right thing， you were actually holding them back．
You will come to understand that you were taking care of them because it made YOU feel good， it made YOU happy to see them smiling and without a care in the world ﹣ and that was extremely selfish of you． While you were feeling satisfied with yourself， you were slowly eating away at their own dreams and ambitions． You were adding material things to their lives， but subtracting the most precious gifts of all．
Invest in their future， don't just give．
Use your success， wealth and influence to put them in the best position to realize their own dreams and find their true purpose． Put them through school， set them up with job interviews and help them become leaders in their own right． Hold them to the same level of hard work and dedication that it took for you to get to where you are now， and where you will eventually go．
I'm writing you now so that you can begin this process immediately， and so that you don't have to deal with the hurt and struggle of weaning（断绝） them off of the addiction that you facilitated That addiction only leads to anger， hatred and jealousy from everybody involved， including yourself．
As time goes on， you will see them grow independently and have their own ambitions and their own lives， and your relationship with all of them will be much better as a result．
Trust me， setting things up right from the beginning will avoid a ton of tears and headache， some of which remains to this day．
Much love，
1.What might be the best title of his letter？
A. To My Younger Self
B. For My Dear Family
C. To My Beloved Son
D. For My Older Self
2.What may be "the most precious gifts of all" in the underlined part？
A. Independence and growth
B. wealth and health
C. love and dedication
D. success and leadership
3.What can we infer from this letter？
A. The writer will stop offering his siblings help in the future．
B. The writer didn't think it a good fortune to become successful early．
C. The writer intends to remind others not to care too much about materials
D. The writer was once troubled by the relationship between him and his family．

Sam， I say to myself as I start across the bridge， you must stop these thoughts and start thinking about what to do now that you have lost your falcon（猎鹰）， Frightful．
Life， my friend Bando once said， is meeting problems and solving them whether you are an amoeba or a space traveler． I have a problem． I have to provide my younger sister Alice and myself with meat． Fish， nuts， and vegetables， are good and necessary， but they don't provide enough fuel for the hard physical work we do． Although we have venison（鹿肉） now， I can't always count on getting it． So far this year， our venison has been only road kill from in front of Mrs． Strawberry's farm．
I decide to take the longest way home， down the flood plain of the West Branch of Delaware to Spilkill， my own name for a fast stream， that cascades down the south face of the mountain range I'm on． I need time to think． Perhaps Alice and I should be like the early Eskimos． We should walk， camp and hunt， and when the seasons change， walk on to new food sources． But I love my tree and my mountaintop．
Another solution would be to become farmers， like the people of the Iroquois Confederacy who once lived here． They settled in villages and planted corn and squash（南瓜）， bush beans and berries． We already grow groundnuts in the damp soil and squash in the poor land． But the Iroquois also hunted game． I can't do that anymore
I'm back where I started from．
Slowly climb the Spillkill． As I hop from rock to rock beneath shady basswoods and hemlocks， I hear the cry of the red﹣tailed hawk who nests on the mountain crest． I am reminded of Frightful and my heart aches． I can almost hear her call my name， Cree， cree， car﹣ree．
Maybe l can get her back if l beg the man who is in charge of the peregrines（游隼） university． "But it's the law，" he would say． L could write to the president of the United states and ask him to make an exception of Alice and me． That won't work． The president swore to upload the constitution（宪法） and laws of the United States when he took office．
I climbed on． I must stop thinking about the impossible and solve the problem of what to do now． I must find a new way to provide for us． Frightful is going to be in good hands at the university and she will have young．
I smile at the thought of little Frightfuls and lift my reluctant feet．
When I am fat above the river，1take of my clothes and moccasins（鹿皮鞋） and bathe in a deep， clear pool until I am refreshed and thinking more clearly． Climbing up the bank， I dress and sit down． I breath deeply of the mountain air and try to solve my problem more realistically．

"It can't be done．" Boyan Slat heard this over and over when he first proposed a way to clean up millions of tons of plastic polluting our oceans． Almost anyone else would have given up in frustration and despair． But 20﹣year﹣old Slat hasn't： been discouraged but committed to his dream． "Human history is basically a list of things that couldn't be done， and then were done，" he says．Today， slat and his team at The Ocean Cleanup are well on their way to proving the critics wrong． Good news for the planet．
（1）_______
Slat， who grew up in the city of Delft in the Netherlands， was on a diving trip in Greece three years ago when he was deeply impressed by plastic， "There were more plastic bags than fish，" he says． "That moment I realized it was a huge issue and that environmental issues are really the biggest problems my generation will face．"
That fall， Slat， then 17， decided to study plastic pollution as part of a high school project． Soon， Slat learned that no one had yet come up with practical way to clean up this massive garbage patches． Most proposed solutions involved "fishing" up the plastic using ships equipped with nets﹣which， as Slat discovered， would likely take more than 1，000 years， cost too much， let off too much sea life along with the trash．
Slat proposed an alternative that mostly avoided these problems﹣a solar﹣powered system using a floating plastic tube which will go around the garbage and trap it is 600 meters long， A big screen hangs down from it， about three metres into the water． Wind， waves and ocean currents will push the trash toward the tube． （Fish can swim under the screen） A ship will pick up the trash and take it back to the shore to sort and recycle it into oil and other products． Best of all， Slat predicted his system could clean up the North Pacific Garbage Patch between California and Hawaii where a lot of floating garbage exists， within five to 10 years．
（2）________
The following， Slat entered the aerospace engineering program at the Delft University of Technology and officially announced his ocean cleanup concept at TEDx Delft． But nothing much moved forward，
Slat found himself continually absent﹣minded in classes， looking for ways． to improve his concept． "It wouldn't let go． I finally decided to put both university and my social life on hold to focus all my time on developing this idea． I wasn't sure if it would succeed， but considering the scale of problem I thought it was important to at least try．" He says．
With this family's blessing， Slat began in earnest organizing a team of volunteers and employees for The Ocean Cleanup， which now numbers about 100．
（3）_______
In answer to opposition， Slat and his team raised ＄100，000 from a crowdfunding campaign and began testing a 40﹣meter collecting barrier near the Azores Islands last March． In June， they released a 500+ page possibility study．
Over the next three to four years， Slat will push toward a fully operational large﹣scale project by testing a series of longer and longer barriers． He's currently seeking to crowd fund ＄2 million to finance it． Incidentally， The Ocean Cleanup is also working on a plan to stop plastic from washing into the oceans in the first place． "It's just the other problem that is equally important．" Slat says． "It's something everyone is able to help with， and we also have some technologies in the pipeline．"
As for school， Slat doesn't miss it ﹣ except maybe for the social﹣part， which he hopes to （恢复） a bit once his team takes on more of the workload． " I don't have time for things like that right now， but I really can't complain． I can imagine doing something more fun than being able to have an idea and then actually making it into a reality．" he says．
