阅读下面四篇材料，根据其内容，选择正确答案或完成阅读任务。

One of the most interesting projects in oceanography(海洋学) is the work of mapping the ocean floor. Only a very small part of it has been mapped .This was not important when only surface ships sailed the world’s oceans, but it can mean the difference between life and death to men in submarines(潜艇).
Long ago there was only one way to find out how deep the ocean was .A seaman could throw a weighted rope over the side of his ship. Then he pulled the rope up after it had reached the bottom. But this was not a very exact way of measuring.
In the twelfth century a better way was found. Sound was used to measure the ocean. An American Navy ship sailed the ocean to make an experiment. Seamen dropped a number of devices that would give out a loud noise when they hit the bottom. And a device had been invented measured the time it took for the sound to reach the ship .It helped oceanographer map the ocean floor.
Underwater photography is also important in mapping parts of the ocean floor. With the new methods that have been perfected, cameras can take pictures of the underwater valleys even in color.

A language never stands still .It is always changing and developing. These changes are rapid in primitive(原始的) societies, but slow in advanced ones, because the invention of printing and the spread of education have fixed a traditional usage. The only important change that English has undergone(遭受) since the 16th century is a large increase in its vocabulary. It is interesting to trace the different ways in which new words are invented. Let us take just two
English words and see how they were made: sandwich and television.
Sandwich, is now no longer an entirely English word, but also international, comes from the Earl of Sandwich(died in1792),who invented the particular form of quick meal so that he could go on gambling all through the night without stopping for dinner. Many names of things are in facts taken from the name of the first inventors, for example, the electrical terms Walt and Volt.
Television is one of many new scientific words which are invented from old Greek and Latin words.“Tele”in Greek, mean “far , while“vision”comes from the Latin verb, meaning“to see”.
51.The word “stand” in the first sentence means_
A. is a certain condition B. not sits
C. remains without change D. rises to the feet
52. What do you think Volt was? He was_
A. a player B. a physicist C, a writer D. a nurse

C. Now the idea of car sharing has become popular in Europe and the United States. That is to say , a few people share one car ,not each person has one.
D. Car sharing is the beginning of a new idea in transportation. It is also very easy for us to travel . Everywhere without buying a car .Do you love to share a car with others?
E. We drive our own cars as long as 1.2 hours a day on average. When we don’t use them , we have to pay for parking and other things. That costs too much money .To save money , some people come up with the idea of car sharing if we sharing a car, we’ll only pay when we use it.
