Passage 1
Sante re, New Mexico multimillionaire Fortest Fenn has always loved a good adventure. As asmall child before eight, he and his brother, Skippy spent summer vacations making exploration inYellowstone National Park.
As a teen, Fenn idolized the decorated World War II fighter pilot, called Robin Olds and latteremulated his hero during The Vietnam War as an Air fighter pilot to go to New Mexico and settledthere as an arts and antiques dealer, hunting down valuable paintings, rugs, war memorabilia, andother antique to sell.
In 1998, Fenn was diagnosed with terminal kidney cancer. As he had always been doing, heconceived a grand adventured that he assumed would be his last one. "I wanted to create someexcitement, some hope, before I died," says Fenn,82, adding that he also wanted to "get kids out ofthe game room and offthe couch." With those ideas in his mind, he started to devise a treasure hunt.
Little by little, Fenn began stocking a small bronze chest with gold coins, prehistoric braceletsand other valuable things. When his cancer went into remission in 1993, he decided he would carryout his plan anyway.
In 2010, Fenn topped offthe chest with jewels and valuable stones and hid it somewhere deepin the Rocky Mountains, north of Sante Fe. Later that year, he wrote a poem for his self-publishedmemoir, The Thrill of the Chase. It contained nine clues about the treasure box′ s whereabouts. Onestanza reads like this: Begin it where warm waters halt/And take it in the canyon down/Not far, buttoo far to walk/Put in below the home of Brown.
A few months later, a story about the treasure appeared in a magazine. Since then, Fenn hasreceived thousands of e-mails from treasure hunters. Some request more clues to the box. But mostly "people thanked me for bringing their family together," he says with a self-comforting smile on hisface.
In April, Fenn told a crowd at an Albuquerque bookstore that two groups of treasure huntershad gotten within 500 feet of the chest. "They walked right by it," he said.
Fenn is confident that the treasure will be unearthed eventually and says i_t will take the rightcombination of cunning and perseverance. "It will be discovered by someone who has read the cluescarefully and successfully. But nobody is going to happen upon it," he predicts.
He hopes that whoever finds the loot will relish the riches and the adventure of finding them.
What did Fenn enjoy most from treasure hunters according to the passage

Yu Gong Moves a Mountain
Once upon a time,there was a very old man.There were two mountains near his house.They were so big and high that it took a long way to walk to the other side.The old man told his family that they should all help him to move the mountains.
Yu Gong said they could put them into the sea because it's big enough to hold everything.Yu Gong and his family began to move some of the soil and stone into the sea.
One day a mall saw Yu Gong and his children when they were working on moving the mountains.He told Yu Gong that he could never do it because he was old and weak.
As soon as the man finished talking,Yu Gong said that his family could continue to move the mountains after he died.His family would live and grow,but the mountains could not get bigger.So Yu Gong and his family kept on digging day after day and year after year.
Finally,a god was so moved by Yu Gong that he sent two gods to take the mountains away.

Liberia,the oldest independent Negro state in West Africa,has been struggling for survival ever since its foundation in 1822.Progress has been hampered by constant hostility between the American
Negroes whose families returned there in the early 19th century,and the West Africans whose ancestors never left the continent.Though the two groups are of the same race,they are divided by language and outlook and regard each other with deep suspicion creating a conflict which was not foreseen by Liberia’s founders.
In addition,neighboring states,native tribe,disease,and poverty have made life dangerous and difficult.The government has tried desperately,through loans and a trickle of trade,to make ends meet.Anxiety about financial matters lessened somewhat when,in l910,the United States accepted responsibility for Liberia’s survival.However,not until Harvey Firestone,the American rubber king,
decided that the United States must produce its own rubber--with Liberia as the site of the rubber plantations-did Liberia have much hope of paying its debts and balancing its budget.
The rubber industry,founded in the l 920s,and the activity that followed it brought both progress and profit to Liberia.Before that time Liberia had DO roads,no mechanical transport and no good port;its people had little education and few tools.Liberians feel that the country is being ruled by rubber.
For this reason,the recent discovery of iron ore is important.Liberian leaders are trying to moderate the power of the rubber industry and to establish the country’s political and economic independence.
