Claude-Oscar Monet(1840-1926)was a French artist and a leading member of the Impressionist group of painters. Born in Paris, Monet spent his childhood in Le Havre. There he met a local artist, Eugène Boudin,who encouraged him to become a landscape painter. In 1859,Monet went to Paris to study at the Académie Suisse. Between 1860 and 1862, Monet served in the army in Algeria（阿尔及利亚）.He returned to Paris where he met most of the major artists of the era. In 1870,Monet married Camille Doncieux. T, escape the Franco-Prussian war, they moved to London. Back to France，they settled at Argenteuil，a boating centre on the Seine（塞纳河）which drew many other Impressionist painters. Working from nature was a particular symbol of the Impressionist movement,and one that Monet valued,reflecting in his paintings the ever-changing impact of light and weather conditions. In 1872,he visited Le Havre where he painted“An Impression,Sunrise”. When exhibited in 1874,part of its title was used by a critic to label the whole movement“Impressionism”. Monet’s wife died in 1879,and he set up home with Alice Hoschedé,the wife of one of his most important sponsors. During the 1880s,Monet travelled through France painting a variety of landscapes. He gradually became better known and for the last30 years of his life he was regarded as the greatest of the Impressionists. From 1890 he began to paint a series（系列）of pictures of one subject， including“Haystacks”“Rouen Cathedral”and“Waterlilies”. The latter were painted in the fine garden Monet created at his house at Giverny,where he lived from 1883 on. He painted them over and over again,most significantly in a series especially for a museum in Paris.

BMonet was one of the sponsors of Impressionism.

The strange close understanding between twins is a familiar enough phenomenon.Often they seem to understand each other and share each other’s emotions to such an extent that one suspects some kind of thought communication. What is not so widely known is that this special relationship often acts as brake on twins' intellectual development. As they are partly isolated in their own private world, twins communicate less with adults than do other children. The verbal ability of a four-year-old twin is typically six months behind that of a non-twin. The problem can be particularly severe in an underprivileged family,a one-parent family for example, where there is little stimulation for children anyway. Such children, while capable of mutual comprehension in a private language, often remain incomprehensible to outsiders and thus at a severe educational disadvantage.The only solution to the problem, cruel though it may seem, is to separate the twins thus forcing them to acquire ordinary speech helped and guided by sympathetic parents and teachers.

2. Many people don't know that______.

Atwins understand each other very well

Btwins are slow to learn to talk

Ctwins are unlikely to do less well at school than other children

Dthere exists more communication between twins

Half of the world's coral reefs（珊瑚礁）have died in the last 30 years. Now scientists are racing to ensure that the rest survive.Even if global warming were to stop right now, scientists predict that more than 90% of corals will die by 2050. If no major steps are taken to address the problem，the reefs may be headed for total extinction（灭绝）. (78)The planet's health depends on the survival of coral reefs. They are often described as "the rainforests of the sea",because they provide shelter for a wide variety of sea life.In addition, the reefs serve as barriers that protect coastlines from the full force of powerful storms. Corals are used in medical research for cures to diseases.They are key to local economies as well, since the reefs attract tourists, the fishing industry, and other businesses, bringing in billions of dollars. (79) Corals are particularly sensitive to changes in temperature. A rise of just 1 to 2 degrees can force the corals to drive out the algae（水藻）.Then the corals turn white in a process called “bleaching”. Corals can recover from short-term bleaching, but long-term bleaching can cause permanent damage.In 1998,when sea surface temperatures were the highest in recorded history, coral reefs around the world suffered the most severe bleaching. It is estimated that even under the best of conditions, many of these coral reefs will need decades to recover. Although reefs face other threats from pollution, industrial activities, and overfishing, it is global climate change that most concerns scientists. Scientists remain hopeful that it's not too late to save the reefs, and some are moving ahead on experiments to accomplish that goal.
