A British farmer has been searching for a group of fighter planes for 15 years. The planes were lost in Burma during World War II. David Cundall, 62, traveled to Burma a dozen times. He spent about US $207,000 in the hope of finding a British Spitfire（喷火式战斗机）buried in the Southeast Asian country. Finally, his hard work paid off.
Cundall started his search after his friend heard from a group of U.S. war veterans（老兵）that they had buried Spitfires in the region. “We’ve done some pretty silly things in our time, but the silliest was burying Spitfires,” the veterans said.
Cundall began placing ads in magazines to try to find soldiers who might have been involved. After 15 years of searching, he finally managed to locate the missing airplanes. The planes had never been flown and were buried in their transport crates（条板箱）. “We made a borehole（钻孔）and used a camera to look at the crates. They seemed to be in good condition.” Cundall told The Telegraph. The aircraft had arrived at a Royal Air Force base in Burma in August 1945. But, by that point in the war, the planes weren’t needed. “In 1945, Spitfires were ten a penny, and you could see them everywhere.” Said Cundall.
British Prime Minister, David Camerion, recently visited the country. As The Telegraph reports, Camerion’s help may mean that the Spitfires could soon be on their way back to the United Kingdom. Cundall hopes that with the help of investors, the planes can finally take to the skies.
“Spitfires are beautiful aeroplanes and should not be rotting away（腐烂）in a foreign land,” Cundall says. “They saved our neck in the Battle of Britain and they should be protected.”
1.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. A British Farmer’s Dream
B. Burma’s Buried Treasure

A. Disappointed B. Excited.
C. Regretful D. Hopeful
3.What does the underlined phrase, “ten a penny ”, in the third paragraph mean?
A. expensive. B. cheap. C. rare D. common
4.What can we learn about the British Spitfires?
A. The planes buried under the ground were seriously damaged.
B. The planes were not needed at that time during World War II.
C. It will be very difficult to take the planes back to the United Kingdom.
D. The planes were buried in Burma after they crashed there.
5.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?
A. Cundall has asked Prime Minister David Cameron for help to bring Spitfires back.

The memory of Dad flooded into my mind. In the morning when I was nine years old, he would come home from working 18 hours at his bakery and wake me up at 5 a.m. by scratching my back with his strong, powerful hand and whispering, “Time to get up, son.” By the time I was dressed and ready to roll, he had my newspaper folded and stuffed in my bicycle basket. Recalling his generosity of spirit brings tears to my eyes.
When I was racing bicycles, he drove me 50 miles each way to Kenosha, Wisconsin, every Tuesday night so I could race and he could watch me. He was there to hold me if I lost and share the euphoria when I won.
Later, he accompanied me to all my local talks in Chicago when I spoke to Century 21, Mary Kay and various churches. He always smiled, listened and _______ told whomever he was sitting with, “That’s my boy!”
In my dad’s last telephone call to me, he said, “I am going home to Denmark, son, and I want to tell you I love you.” He repeated that line seven times in half an hour. I wasn’t listening at the right level. I heard the words, but not the message, and certainly not their profound intention.
Two days later, Dad passed away. My heart was in pain because Dad was there for me but I wasn’t there for him. Please always, always share your love with your loved ones, and try to be invited to that important period when physical life transforms into spiritual life. Experiencing the process of death with one you love will give you a deeper understanding of life.

The day for the great balloon competition finally arrived. Every insect in the garden had been hard, and now they were preparing to begin their routines. The balloon competitions were always something really special.

So the competition began, and the insects took their turns, performing beautiful movements with the balloons. As always the butterflies left everyone with their twist and turns, and their wonderful colours. When it was time for the ants to perform, it seemed like the competition had already been decided.
For the time in living memory, the ants shared just one balloon between them, and one by one they climbed up the balloon string, a thin black thread of ants. When all the string was covered, the last ant climbed his teammates to reach the balloon. he got there, he climbed onto the top of the balloon.
This strange attracted everyone's curiosity, and they were just about to witness the most important : the ant opened his jaws as wide as he could. . . and then he made a violent movement at the balloon with all his strength!
The result was powerful! The balloon began blowing out its air, flying about, here and there, doing a thousand turns and spins, while the ants made all kinds of beautiful shapes out of the string.
Of course, that acrobatic(杂技般的) flight with quite a hard landing, but it didn't . The creativity and teamwork of the ant performance was so that the crowd didn't even have to vote for there to be a winner.
From then on, in that garden, everyone understood how much could be achieved by working . In the years to come, the balloon competitions were full of displays carried out by teams, and they put on some wonderful routines; something those individual insects could never have achieved on their own.
