单选题Meriwether Lewis was born near Charlottesville, Virginia on August 19, 1775. For several years he was the personal secretary of his friend Thomas Jefferson, the President of the United States. Before that, he served in the United States Army for 12 years. One day the President told him he had a special mission for him.
Jefferson asked Lewis to lead an expedition to explore the Louisiana Territory, cross the Rocky Mountains, and go all the way to the Pacific Ocean. The President wanted him to find a waterway from the Mississippi to the Pacific and to make friends with the native Americans he met. He was also to make detailed maps and to describe the rivers, mountains, plants, and animals he saw.
Lewis chose his close friend Captain Bill Clark to be the co-leader of the expedition. Like himself, Captain Clark was in the army for many years, loved the outdoors, and had a lot of experience with native Americans. However, the two men were also rather different. Lewis was quiet, serious, and liked to be alone. Clark liked to talk and joke, and was always kind to others.
About 40 men and Lewis''s dog Seaman left St. Louis on May 14, 1804. Most of the men were soldiers, and they were named the Corps of Discovery. They traveled northwest up the muddy Missouri River in three boats loaded with food and gifts for the native Americans. In October, they got to Mandan, North Dakota, where they established a fort among friendly native Americans and stayed for the winter.
In April 1805, the Corps of Discovery started west from Mandan along with three new members, a French trapper named Charbonneau, his native American wife, Sacagawea, and their baby. They reached the beginning of the Missouri River and the Rocky Mountains in July. With the help of Sacagawea, they bought horses from the native Americans, crossed the Rocky Mountains, and continued along the Snake and Columbia Rivers. On November 7, 1805, they sighted their goal, the Pacific Ocean !
In March 1806, the Corps started their long journey back to St. Louis and arrived there on September 23, 1806, tired but very happy. They had accomplished everything President Jefferson wanted except to find a waterway to the Pacific. But it wasn''t easy. They had to contend with grizzly bears, mosquitoes, and rattlesnakes. They came close to starving and had to eat horses, dogs, and roots. They suffered a lot from the heat and the cold, from too much rain, and from heavy snow. But they were the first explorers crossing the North American Continent north of Mexico, and the expedition was a great success.
Now match each of the items (61 to 65 ) to the appropriate statement.
Note: there are two extra statements.

[A] was the President of the United States.
[B] were loaded with gifts for the native Americans.
[C] was serious.
[D] turned out to be a great success.
[E] loved the outdoors.
[F] accomplished everything the President wanted except
[G] was named Charbonneau.

单选题 "Family" is of course an elastic word. And in different
countries it has different meanings. But when British people say that their
society is based on family life, they are thinking of "family" in its narrow,
peculiarly European sense of mother, father and children living together in
their own house as an economic and social unit. Thus, every British marriage
indicates the beginning of a new and independent family—hence the tremendous
importance of marriage in British life. For both man and woman, marriage means
leaving one's parents and starting one's own life. The man's first duty will
then be to his wife, and the wife's to her husband. He will be entirely
responsible for her financial support, and she for the running of the new home.
Their children will be their common responsibility and their alone. Neither the
wife's parents nor the husband's, nor their brothers or sisters, aunts or
uncles, have any right to interfere with them—they are their own
masters. Readers of novels like Jane Austen's Pride and
Prejudice will know that in former times, marriage among wealthy families were
arranged by the girl's parents, that is, it was the parents' duty to find a
suitable husband for their daughter, preferably a rich one, and by skillful
encouragement to lead him eventually to ask their permission to marry her. Until
that time, the girl was protected and maintained in the parents' home, and the
financial relief of getting rid of her could be seen in their giving the newly
married pair a sum of money called a dowry(嫁妆). It is very different today. Most
girls of today get a job when they leave school and become financially
independent before their marriage. This has had two results. A girl chooses her
own husband, and she gets no dowry. Every coin has two sides; independence for
girls is no exception. But it may be a good thing for all of the girls, as their
social status are much higher and they are no longer the subordinate (部下,下级) of
their parents and husbands.
