James Cook was born on October 27, 1728, in Yorkshire, England. In 1755, he joined Great Britain’s Royal Navy and soon proved his ability. Just after making officer rank, Cook was chosen to undertake a scientific journey to Tahiti to observe the planet Venus as it passed between the earth and the sun, which would help scientists calculate the distance of the earth from the sun.
On August 25, 1768, Cook departed England aboard the Endeavour with 94 crewmen and scientists with secret orders.
Cook was determined to keep his crew healthy. He insisted his men eat onions and pickled(腌渍的)cabbage every day, and made sure that the ship kept fresh fruit and vegetables on board. He ordered his men to bathe every day, to clean their clothing and to air out their bedding. What he did worked to prevent diseases in his crew.
On April 11, 1769, the Endeavour arrived at Tahiti. After viewing the passing of Venus between the earth and the sun for several weeks, Cook opened the secret orders and knew he was to seek out the fabled southern continent and claim it for England. He left Tahiti on July 13 and headed southwest.
When Cook reached New Zealand on October 6, the native Maori people proved to be un-friendly and his crew was forced to fire on them. The Endeavour spent a few months exploring New Zealand and proved it was not part of the great southern continent. On April 9, 1770, Cook explored and documented the location of Australia. After months of exploring, Cook concluded that this continent was not the great southern continent.
The Endeavour made its way to Java in the East Indies in October of 1770. Because of malaria and dysentery, many of his men got ill and dead. He had to sign on new crew in order to go back home. The Endeavour made it back to Dover, England, on July 13, 1771.

Charles Dickens was born in Portsmouth on 7th February, 1812. His father, John Dickens, was a clerk in the Navy. In 1814 the Dickens family moved to London and two years later to Chatham in Kent. Charles attended a private school for a few years there until the family moved back to London in1822.
Two years later Charles’s father was sent to a debtors’ prison for not paying his bills. Charles was 12 years old at the time. The family had no money, so he had to leave school and get a job in a factory that made shoe polish. The conditions there were very bad and the workers were very poor. It was a completely different world from one Charles knew and he was often sad and lonely.
His father managed to leave the prison and Charles returned to school, but this experience had a great effect on him. He never forgot it and described it in several of his novels.
Great Expectations is usually described as a bildungsroman, a type of novel that was popular in Victorian times. Bildungsroman is a German word used for novels that show the psychological and moral development of the main character as he or she grows up. However, Great Expectations, like most of Charles Dickens’s novels, can not be so easily defined. It is also a story about love and passion, a mystery story and a story that comments on the society of the time.
Great Expectations is set on the marshes(湿地) of Kent and in London in the early to mid-1800s. The main character is a poor orphan boy called Pip, who lives with his old sister and her husband, Joe. One day he meets and falls in love with a rich girl called Estella. She laughs at him because he is a poor village boy and he starts to become unhappy with his life. A few years later he learns that he has a secret benefactor(捐助人), who wants him to live the life of a gentleman. Now that he is rich, he thinks that he has a chance of winning Estella’s love. He leaves his village and goes to live London, where he makes new friends. He starts to feel ashamed of his home and his family, particularly Joe, who he treats unkindly. However, after many adventures he is finally able to recognize his mistakes.
Charles Dickens originally wrote a sad ending for Great Expectations but he decided to change it to a happier one because of a suggestion from one of his friends. Most books today contain the new ending but there are some that also include the original one.
1.According to the passage, which of the following is Wrong about Dickens?
A.Financial difficulties forced the Dickens family to move to London.
B.He was left to take care of himself at 12 when his father was put into a debtor’s prison.
C.He had a little primary education and lived a sad and painful life.
D.Great Expectations was based on much of Dickens’ personal experience.
2.What does the underlined word “Bildungsroman” in paragraph 4 mean?
A.a process of maturation(成熟) and self-discovery.
B.a process of becoming independent.
C.a process of physical and mental development.
D.a change from selfishness to love and passion.
3.What will Pip’s relationship with Joe be possibly like at the end of the story?
A.Pip will become more ashamed of his family and less kind to Joe.
B.Pip will be grateful to Joe and reward him.
C.Pip will be kind and friendly to Joe.
D.Pip will be cold and distant with Joe.
4.Pip realizes what is the most important thing in life at the end of the story?
A.wealth and social status.
B.love and loyalty.
C.lifelong ambition and successful careers.
D.great expectations and wildest dreams.
