On a hot day，many people like to go to the beach.Some beaches，however，are not safe for swimming.
At some beaches，there are sharks in the water.So people put out shark nets.They help stop too many sharks from getting close to the beach.Sharks can still swim under or around the net.But if they try to swim through，they will get caught.Sharks can die if they are not cut free.
Shark nets don't just catch sharks.They can catch other animals，too.They have caught dolphins，stingrays and turtles.Even a whale has been caught in a shark net.I took many people to get it free.
Some animals are not so lucky.They are killed in the nets.One day，a whale was swimming with her calf.The calf got caught in a shark net.The mother whale tried to get the calf to come with her.The calf was caught in the net.It couldn't get free.The mother had to watch it die.
Many people think shark nets should not be used.Sharks are important to the ocean.They eat sick and dead fish.They help to keep the ocean clean.Sharks are the lions and the tigers of the sea.
Some people think there are other ways to keep beach safe for people.Sharks potters are people who watch for sharks.They go to a high place.Then they can look down on the beach.If they see a shark，a siren（汽笛）will sound.They put up a white flag.Then people get out of the water.
After all，the water is a shark's home.

After months of study，you have some time to relax．So，why not read a book？Well，some people will say，"Why trouble with books？We have the Internet and other media（媒体）that offer a lot more colorful programs．Books are history!"But don't be fooled．There's still a lot to be said for reading．①One clear reason is that a well﹣chosen is a wonderful collection of and expressions，as long as you have a good dictionary，of course．Believe me，it's far easier to get standard English than from the TV or the Internet．② But an even more important point is that books give you something that modern media cannot．The webpage is always full of pictures and the text is often designed to make it as easy to read as possible．Though"easy"may be welcome，unluckily it's of little use for any long﹣time development of reading skills and the general language level．For that，there's still no substitute（替代品） for a book．But perhaps the best reason is that simply choosing what you read and doing it by yourself means that it's something you do by and for yourself．You can choose what you want to read．It's hard work，but while you are reading，you'll find that what once seemed like a duty is now a pleasure．Reading can bring us pleasure．
