Mr. White lived in a small village(怀特先生住在一个小乡村里). His parents hadn't enough money to send him to school. He had to help them to do something in the fields. But he didn't like to live in the poor place. When he was sixteen, he got to the town and found work in a factory. Three years later he became tall and strong. So he was sent to Africa as a soldier. He stayed there for five years and got some money. Then he came back to England and bought a shop in a small town. No people in the town went to Africa except him. And he hoped they thought he was a famous man and that they could respect him. The children often asked him to tell them some stories and his life in Africa.
One day a few children asked him to tell them something about the animals in Africa. He told them how he fought with the tigers and elephants. His stories surprised them all and some policemen and workers went to listen to him. It made him happier. Just a man who taught geography in a middle school passed there. He stopped to listen to him for a while and then said, "Could you please tell us a rare animal, sir？"
"Certainly," said Mr. Turner. "One day I met a rhinoceros(犀牛) by a river…"

They flew to London and arrived at their hotel late one evening. They expected that they would have to go to bed hungry, because in that small inn in New Jersey no meals were served after seven. They were therefore surprised when the man who received them in the hall asked whether they would ask dinner there that night.
"Are you still serving dinner？" asked Mr. Smith.
"Yes, certainly, sir," answered the man. "We serve it until half past nine."
"What are the times of meals then？" asked Mr. Smith.
"Well, Sir," answered the man, "We serve breakfast from seven to half past eleven in the morning, lunch from twelve to three in the afternoon, tea from four to five and dinner, from six to half past nine."
"But that hardly leaves any time for us to see the sights of London." Said Mrs. Smith.

In the early fifties, only eight or nine out of a hundred young men changed their jobs within the first three years with the company. In the past few years, almost thirty-five percent of the college-graduated work force changed jobs within the same period. These people want to intensify their management training. Since most jobs take only a year to a year and a half to master, in order to continue learning, they have to make a job change. Even company presidents tend to be seen as mobile specialists, staying with one company an average of only five years.
Company presidents in the United States today tend to be young men who begin their careers with educational backgrounds in engineering science, or business management. They have worked for a few years as technical specialists and quickly moved into higher management positions. Most of them were making ＄ 30 000 per year by the time they reached thirty. On an average, these men have only twenty years working experience at management level when they become company presidents. On the way to the top, they have an average of eleven promotions and seven city transfers.
Friendships remain casual and are usually derived from business contracts. Families of these career men have little time to put down roots in and become part of a community.
In the past, a few men attained high positions through family and social connections; today, high positions go to men who are mobile, and have good educational, backgrounds.
According to the passage, an increasing number of future company presidents might be ______.
A．people who have spent a number of years with one company
B．young people who do not want to move often, but are steady and dependable
C．people who have spent a long time concerned with community affairs
D．young people who have good education and are willing to move around

He can also apply this information to the more effective utilization of the listening spots he has set up to detect enemy submarines (潜水艇). A knowledge of fish sounds can avoid confusion and unneeded effort when a "new" sound is picked up and the sound sentry (哨兵) must decide whether or not to call an alarm.

请根据以下内容回答下列各题 Insurance (保险)is the sharing of risks. Nearly everyone isexposed to risk of some sort.
