5.It was sunrise on an August morning when the captainand his crew cast their netssome 50 miles south of Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico.As the net was pulled over,thecontents poured out followed by excited cries of"Coins!Coins!"The fishermen quickly realized they had realized a fisherman's dream:sunken treasure!And not just any treasure,but early American silver dollars that had gone down 210 years earlier.In 1784,at the end of the American Revolutionary War,a heavily armed ship wasbound for the port of New Orleans.On board was a fortune in Spanish Silver Dollars.Hundreds of thousands of them were loaded for the trip to New Orleans,yet not a singleone arrived.With no survivors from the ill-fated voyage,historians can only guess at whathappened.Some say powerful storms took her down while others speculate it was treasurehungry pirates(海盗）。Whatever happened,the secret-along with a treasure valued near＄100,000,000 in today's dollars-was sent to a watery gravesome 300 feet below theocean's surface.Spanish Silver Dollars were the favorite coins of colonial Americans.Widely used andaccepted as payment in the thirteen colonies,the United States government gave them thestatus of official legal tender.Unfortunately,even though they were struck in large quantities,not many of them survive today.After the Civil War,the government withdrew themfrom circulation and they were melted down.Due to the historic discovery of this treasure,GovMint.com is releasing these coins tothe public for an amazingly low price.For a limited time,those authentic silver dollars arepriced at$49 plus shipping and handling-a dramatic reduction from the market price ofthis coin anywhere else worldwide.What do we know about"Spanish Silver Dollars"?（）

Number sense is not the ability to count．It is the ability to recognize a46in number．Human beings are born with this ability．47, Experiments show that many animas are, too．For example, many birds have good number sense．If a nest has four eggs and you remove one, the bird will not48．However, if you remove two, the bird49leaves．This means that the bird knows the50between two and three.

Another interesting experiment showed a bird’s51number sense．A man was trying to take a photo of a crow(乌鸦) that had a nest in a tower, but the crow always left when she saw him coming．The bird did not52until the man left the tower．The man had an53．He took another man with him to the tower．One man left and the other stayed, but they did not54the bird．The crow stayed away until the second man left, too．The experiment was55with three men and then with four men．But the crow did not return to the nest until all the men were56．It was not until five men went into the tower and only four left that they were57able to fool the crow.

How good is a human’s number sense? It’s not very good．For example, babies about fourteen months old almost always notice if something is taken away from a58group．But when the number goes beyond three or four, the children are59fooled.

It seems that number sense is something we have in common with many animals in this world, and that our human60is not much better than a crow’s.50A.distance,B.range,C.difference,D.interval

11.California families are facing a rapidly mounting uphill battle to make enough money to provide basic household essentials, according to a new study conducted by the California Budget Project. 　　The research compiled by the Sacramento-based non-profit organization concluded an average two-parent family with one employed adult in California needs to make $51,177 a year, or $24.60 cents an hour, to pay for housing, transportation, food, utilities, child care, health coverage, taxes and other basic expenses. 　　The number grows significantly higher in the Bay Area, the state's most expensive region．A Bay Area family of four with two working adults living in rental housing needs a combined income of $79,946 to cover essential needs．That number is more than four times greater than the $19,157 income level recognized by the federal government as impoverished. 　　The study is the fourth semi-annual survey conducted by the California Budget Project since 1999． California Budget Project executive director Jean Ross said helping state officials and residents understand the numbers found in the report is crucial to moving families toward self-sufficiency. "How should we be targeting some of our programs and policies? How much do young people need to earn and what kind of a job should they be looking to train for if they want to have that salary that can support a family?" 　　CBP said the project was based on actual costs or generally accepted fair standard prices based on weighted averages found in ten California regions.What are some basic expenses for Bay Area families?
