Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
The sea is the common property of all nations. It belongs equally to all. None can appropriate it exclusively to themselves;nor is it “foreign” to any. This was the decision of John Marshall, chief justice of the United States from 1801 to 1835. It was stated as a fundamental rule the sea that no one, and therefore everyone, owns the ocean. This means that outside territorial waters(the waters within three miles of a country's coast), the law is whatever nations agree on in peacetime and whatever the strongest naval powers can enforce in wartime. After the United States purchased Alaska, Americans began to seize Canadians who were hunting seals outside Alaskan territorial waters. The Americans claimed that the seals were American property because they often came in to the Alaskan shores owned by the United States. International arbitrators disagreed with this reasoning. In some cases, however, the special rights of a nation that makes use of an open-sea area are recognized.
All of the sea's rules of the road are established by international conferences and treaties.
The fundamental rule of the sea means that______.
A. the sea should be equally divided among all the nations in the world
B. any area of the sea belongs to the nation closest to it
C. no nation has any sea rights
D. no nation has exclusive right to the open sea

Reading Comprehension(阅读理解) Passage 2 A friend of mine was fond of drawing horse. He drew the horses very well, but he always began the tail. Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse. That is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly(肚子) or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really know their business do not follow other people’s rule. They make their own rules. Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar(奇特的) to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he finds it more easy to work in that way. Now the very same thing is true to literature(文学). And the question, "How shall I begin?" only means that you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced(有经验的) enough to trust to your own powers. When you become more experienced you will never ask the question, and I think that you will often begin at the tail --that is to say, you will write the end of the story before you have even thought of the beginning. 根据短文完成1-5题,在空格处填写正确选项的字母。 1. A friend of the writer’s drew the horses ____. A. very badly B. in the way of western rule C. in the way of his own rule D. all of the above

No two clouds are ever alike. But it is still possible to group clouds and to give them names. We can recognize the different kinds of clouds and watch them for signs of changing weather.
As a rule, the higher the clouds, the better the weather. And the lower the clouds, the worse the weather is likely to be. To predict the weather, there are three things about clouds you should look for: movement, color, and change.
Clouds can tell you if storm is on the way. For example, small feathery cirrus clouds (卷云) can become thick and move lower. This means rain is on the way. If there is a sudden, cool breeze (微风) thunder (雷声) clouds appears, then a storm is about to break out.
