I stood in line to sign up for the middle school track(田径)team.

“Track isn't an 　　 sport.” the coach said. “Are you ready to practice hard every day?”

“Oh, yes. I love running.” I replied.

“Well, that's good,” the coach said.“ 　　 starts tomorrow after school.”

I was a little nervous about running with mostly older students, but I decided to face my fear.

“Welcome to the first day of practice.” the coach ordered everyone to the bottom of a sand hill. “Okay.”, he said, “This is the 　　 practice we'll do all season. You are going to run up and down the sand hill ten times as fast as you can. If you can't 　　 _ it, move to the side.” We all lined up, legs ready.

“Go！”the coach shouted, and 　　 we went.

I considered myself a bit small but strong. Running up that hill, however, was harder than I had imagined it would be. The sand kept falling down under my feet and it was hard to keep balance(平衡). I tried 　　 my feet in deeper, but people kept passing me shouting “Look out!” and “Move off to the side!”

“Don't cry,” I told myself as tears filled my eyes. I had to step aside. I went home from practice feeling like a(an) 　　 .

That night my dad noticed sad face and asked what was wrong. The story came pouring out. Dad listened quietly and then asked, “How 　　 do you want to run?”

“I really want to run,” I whispered through my tears.

“Then, run,” he said. “Everyone will respect you if you don't stop and give 　　 all you have. I know how strong-mined you can be when you set your mind to it.”

The next day the hill looked as hard as it had been the day before, but I had a new attitude and something to 　　 . “Go！” the coach shouted. Several older students ran by me as we started up the hill. I still fell in the sand, and I still wanted to leave every step of the way; but I kept 　　 slowly and progressively. When I reached the top, I gave a silent cheer and headed back down again. My dad was right. I won 　　 that day and became a part of the team. On my last time down, everyone clapped and cheered.

Tom and his best friend Rob were out of school for the summer. They had been swimming, gone to the movies, played video games, and even built a castle out of some old cardboard boxes. But today they were so bored. “At least we would have something to do.” Tom thought for a while and suggested, “Let’s make some popcorn and lemonade and sell it outside.”

The boys went to the kitchen and asked Tom’s mom if she would help them make some lemonade while they popped the popcorn. Tom’s mom got the lemons from the refrigerator and also a small amount of sugar. She mixed up the lemonade while the boys started popping the popcorn.

Tom and Rob got a small table from the garage and set it up near the sidewalk. They made a red sign telling everyone that popcorn and lemonade was for sale. The boys sat for about ten minutes before they got their first sale. Mrs. Jenkins, one of their neighbors, was walking her dog. “It’s so hot today.” “I sure can use a drink,” she said. Soon the boys were busy handing out popcorn to Mr. Baker. He was walking down the street sending the mail. “I need a break,” he said. “Walking all over the neighborhood gave me an appetite.”

The boys had only three popcorn bags left and enough lemonade for three more cups. “Wow, I didn’t think the popcorn and lemonade would sell that fast. We made six dollars,” said Tom. “If we get bored again before school starts, we can try selling more lemonade with cookies(饼干) next time,” laughed Rob.

B. Buying some sugar and cookies.

Most of the things around you will be replaced or thrown away someday. Where will they go when they are thrown out? What kinds of waste will they create, and how will it affect the environment

Most of our crash goes to places called landfills. A LANDFILL is a low area of land that is filled with garbage（垃圾）.Most modern landfills are lined with a cover of plastic to keep dangerous liquids（液体）from polluting earth and ground water supply. The problem is that more than half of the states in this country are running out of places to landfill their garbage. Because of the unhealthy materials, landfills do not make good neighbors，and people don’t want to live near them. Many landfills are set in poor neighborhoods.

The Fresh Kills landfill on Staten Island, New York, was the largest garbage landfill in the world. For years, people who live nearby complained about air and water pollution caused by the enormous pile of trash. They say that the smoke have made people sick. The landfill closed in

April 2001.Now can a harmful waste—material that can pollute air, land, and water –be disposed of in a safe way.

Another way to get rid of trash is to burn it. Trash is burned in an incinerator._ Because incinerators in operation can get rid of almost all of the trash, some communities would rather use incinerators than landfills. There is a problem, though. Leftover ash and smoke from burning trash may have dangerous chemicals, and even make it hard for some people to breathe. They can harm plants, animals, and people.

You can help reduce（减少）waste by reusing bottles, batteries, and paper. You can also recycle newspaper, glass, and plastics t to provide materials for making other products.

From recycled materials, many things are made. For example, from recycled paper we can get newspapers, boxes and so on. From recycled plastic we can get soda bottles, tables, and backpacks.

1.Why don’t landfills make good neighbors?

A. Because there are unhealthy materials in them.

B. Because people prefer to live in the city center.

C. Because landfills are not big enough for trash.

D. Because most states are running out of places.

2.What does the underlined word “incinerator”_probably mean?

A. An area to collect trash.    B. A machine to burn trash

C. A method that is used to burn trash.    D.A station that is run by selling trash.

3.What is probably the best title for the passage?

A. How Is Trash Burned?    B. What Can Be Reused.

C. Why Is Waste Dangerous?    D. Where Does Garbage Go?

Nearly all kids have had the same experience. They are eating in a restaurant with their parents. They finished the spaghetti minutes ago. Now, they are bored. Their little brother is kicking them under the table. He is also complaining about the desserts(餐后甜点). Yet their parents are still eating and talking…and talking…and talking.

“Be patient.” One parent says. “We’ll have dessert soon.”

All kids know what happens next. After dessert, their parents drink coffee. Then they talk some more. Again, the children must wait. They have been in school all day and would rather be running and playing. Instead, they must sit in a chair and stare at a wall.

Going to a restaurant doesn’t have to be this way. Many restaurants say they are “family-friendly”. Family restaurants, such as fast-food restaurants should play areas for children. At these restaurants, almost every play area is a big room full of climbing equipment. The room is usually, packed with happy kids. Parents can eat while the children play. Everyone is happy.

The real problem begins when families want to eat a fancier meal(大餐). The parents don’t want to hurry through the meal but talk to each other. They do not have bored children pestering(烦扰) them about leaving. That’s no fun for kids either. For them, going to a nicer restaurant means just one thing: sit still and be quiet.

On family blogs across the Web, dozens of parents post the same question all the time; are there any nicer restaurants with play areas for kids? Research shows that some nicer restaurants do have play areas. In warmer cities, it is easier for restaurants to build play areas outside. For example, at one restaurant kids can sail tiny little motor boats in a small, shallow pond. Parents can sit on a beautiful yard and watch the kids play. Some nicer restaurants even have indoor play areas. Research also shows that these restaurants serve more than just burgers, chickens and fries.

So, it’s possible for a restaurant to provide both food and a place where kids can play. These restaurants seem to be popular, too. For some, families must have reservation days in advance. For others, families might be forced to wait in long lines. Clearly, quality food and safe play areas are both good for business.

1.Why do children get unhappy at the restaurant?

A. Because they can’t join in their parents’ talk.

B. Because the dessert isn’t served in time.

C. Because they can do nothing but wait.

D. Because the food there isn’t delicious.

2.What is the real problem mentioned in the passage?

A. Children don’t like eating fancier food.

B. Not many nicer restaurants provide play areas.

C. Parents don’t trouble to comfort their bored kids.

D. People have to wait for seats in nicer restaurants.

3.What conclusion can we draw from the research?

A. It’s common for nicer restaurants to provide good food and play areas.

B. Building play areas is more difficult for restaurants in colder cities.

C. Serving more kinds of foods may help restaurants to make more money.

D. It’s possible for restaurants to find a balance to make both happy.

4.What does the writer mainly want to tell us?

A. Cities need to help develop restaurant business.

B. Children are supposed to be much more patient.

C. Restaurants are supposed to give kids some space.

D. Parents need to care more about their kids when eating.

Ants may be very tinny, but they’re serious eaters! Ants love a picnic and they have their “ant-picnics”.

Favorite Foods

Want to find out what the ants like to eat? Place different foods on the edge of an upside-down plate. You can use butter, honey or seeds. Put this feeding station in the places where there are lots of ants. Wait three minutes and count the number of ants feeding on each food. Count them every three minutes. Watch and find out!

Do ants prefer sweet foods or less sweet ones? Here’s test: Give ants a choice between full-strength honey and a honey-water mixture. Offer a few drops of each choice side-by-side. Then count the number of ants you see near each site every three minutes.

How Far Will They Go?

Want to see how far ants travel to collect food? First find an ant nest(巢) by following some ants when they carry food home. Now you know how far the ants traveled to your food station. Next, move the food station about one foot (30cm) farther. Keep moving it until the ants no longer show up.

Spreading the News

Once ants find food they like, usually they try to get their nestmates to help. To find out how long it takes an ant to tell others there’s food nearby, offer their favorite food and watch. After the first ant finds it, begin counting the ants at the food station every minute. Also, watch their behavior, when the first ant heads home, what does it do when it gets near other nestmates?

1.Do ants love a picnic?

____________________________________________________

2.Where can we put the feeding station to find out ants’ favorite food?

____________________________________________________

3.How can we find an ant nest?
