Task1. Read the text about Shannon Switzer. Mark the sentences TRUE or FALSE according to the context.
Shannon Switzer writer and water conservationist
What did you want to be when you were growing up?
When I was little, I actually wanted to be an animal. I would literally run around on all fours pretending to be a dog, horse, cheetah, dolphin-I morphed into different animals all the time. By the time I got to middle school and high school, I had moved on to wanting to be a zoo veterinarian or trainer at SeaWorld.
How did you get started in your field of work?
I've always loved the outdoors, the mountains and ocean alike and growing up in San Diego allowed me to explore both of these diverse ecosystems. I doubled in Environmental Studies and Biological Sciences, which gave me ample opportunity to get out in the field.
What inspires you?
The ironic part about my dedication to conserving fresh water is my love for its salty cousin. Don't get me wrong. I love exploring rivers, lakes, and waterfalls, and I know that fresh water is our most precious and limited resource on Earth. That alone is enough reason to be dedicated to preserving it However, the true driving force behind my obsession with keeping fresh water clean is my desire to keep the ocean clean. My belief that we should be able to enjoy spending time in our rivers, lakes, and oceans without worrying about it adversely affecting our health is what motivates me daily.
What has been your favorite experience in the field?
A moment that will always be frozen in time for me occurred when I was photographing whale sharks. I had been following a shark who suddenly disappeared down to the depths. I brought my head up out of the water to determine where the rest of my small team had gone. When I put my head back in the water, I discovered another whale shark directly beneath me.
We swam together for nearly 20 minutes. Fortunately, he was headed in the direction of my team. Once we had nearly reached them, he paused. He stared at me with his curious round eye and then turned and headed in the direction from where we had just come.
There's always something surreal about spending time with a wild animal that has chosen to approach and hang out on its own terms. In this case, I felt like I'd made a new friend.

1.And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
2.Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
3.I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less
4.If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too
5.If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated don't give way to hating
6.And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream-and not make dreams your master;
7.If you can think-and not make thoughts your aim,
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
