The concept of homeschooling is not a new one. Homeschooling means educating children at home instead of sending them to public or private schools. Nowadays, homeschooling has become popular in the USA for a lot of reasons. One of them is poor quality of education in public schools and it’s also because of the high cost in private schools. Some parents believe that because they know their child’s strengths and weaknesses, they can teach him or her better. Some parents prefer homeschooling so as to prevent their children from getting into bad company. There is another group of people who choose to educate their children at home because they want them to learn their religious beliefs. They also think that homeschooling would help in development of strong family bonds (家庭纽带).
However, there are some negative influences of homeschooling on students as well as parents.
Homeschooling is a full-time job and not fit for parents who have their own careers. It takes a lot of time for parents’ side to make homeschooling a success. Other family members’ responsibilities may also be affected. They may give their full attention to the needs of their children. Besides, a parent may have high educational qualifications, but that does not make him or her a good teacher. Teaching is an art, which requires the ability to understand the needs of the children. It may be difficult for the parents to explain the concepts to their children.
In today’s world, competition is seen in every field, and school prepares children to face these competitions. However, homeschooling does not give the children a chance to compare with other kids. They will also not be aware of where they stand in educational position among their classmates. This may affect their lives. Education is not the only thing that the children need to become successful human beings. It is necessary that they learn to communicate in the society, and public school provides them with such an environment, where they meet many people. Schools also provide children with a chance to take part in different activities to improve their overall development.
It is true that it has many advantages, but one must get to know that school teaches children skills to survive.

Sue and Jim were neighbours for five years but they were never interested in each other. Then one day, Sue saw Jim’s music collection. She noticed a rare punk rock CD that she also owned. At that moment, she realized that they both had the same interest in music and they started talking. Sue said, “I thought we had nothing in common（相同）until I saw his CD by the New York Dolls.” They are now married and living with each other.
Some psychologists (心理学家) think that your taste in music is related to (有联系的) your personality. As part of a test at the University of Texas, Austin, USA, volunteers created a CD of their favourite songs. The volunteers then listened to each other’s CDs and made guesses about the CD creator’s personality—outgoing, adventurous, happy, and so on. These strangers correctly guessed much more about each others’ personalities through their CDs than through their clothes or taste in films. For example, Sue and Jim love punk music, which means they have outgoing personalities.
The psychologists who did the test found Snoop Dogg (hip-hop) fans are likely to be energetic and talkative. People who like U2 (rock/pop music) are generally independent and adventurous.
The psychologists also found that Louis Armstrong(jazz) fans tend to(倾向于) be serious and intelligent While fans of classical music are also likely to enjoy jazz music and tend to be shy.The psychologists were surprised to find that rap and heavy metal fans were also shier and quieter than many other music lovers.

注意：每个空格只填一个单词。
Many animal lovers would like to do more to help animals, but aren’t sure where to start or feel like they just don’t have the time. The good news is that there are many simple things you can do to help protect animals.
Think more before you decide
The decisions you make may go a long way toward stopping the killing of animals. Consider eating a vegetarian (素食者) diet. If you aren’t ready to make this change, there are still things you can do. Do not buy animal products from companies that have illegal (违法的) practices.
Help speak the word out
Speaking the word out about the problems faced by animals can be as easy as putting up a notice on your car. Also, talk to your friends and family members about important problems of animals. Give some simple advice to a friend with a new pet about the serious pet over-population problem we’re facing. Turn to some books on the subject if you are not so clear about the advice you give to your friend.
Write a letter
We’ve all heard the saying, “The pen is more powerful than the sword (宝剑)”. Put this idea to the protection of animals. If a company has practices or rules that are harmful to animals, write them a letter to let them know you are angry about them, and that you won’t buy their products until they make some changes. Write letters to state and local legislators (立法者) to let them know how important it is that they support legislation that protects animals. Make them know that their actions will have a great effect on your vote.
Be more loving
If you’re considering adding a dog or a cat to your family, think about getting one from a homeless-animal house rather than buying a pet. There are many wonderful animals just waiting for a home. By taking back an animal from there, you will be helping in the fight against pet over-population, as well as giving your money to those who look after poor animals.
Let your actions set an example
It may sound simple, but one of the best ways to help animals is to let your actions speak to the world. You should do the following things first by yourself: Treat all living animals respectfully. Care about your pets and look after them well. Avoid entertainment (娱乐) places that use animals to perform. Support laws that protect animals. All of these things set an example for others to follow.
Ways to protect 1.
Think carefully before you make a 2.
●Don’t eat meat.
● 3. to buy animal products from companies that have illegal practices.
Speak the word out
●Put up an animal-protection 4. on the car.
●Talk to your friends and family members and give advice.
●Get help from 5. if necessary.
Write letters
●Let those companies that are doing 6. to animals know about your anger.
●Let legislators know the 7. of their support for legislation that protects animals.
Be more loving
●Get a pet from a homeless-animal house instead of 8. a new one.
●Give money to the people who look after poor animals.
Set an example for others
●Treat all living animals with 9. and take good care of your pets.
●Avoid 10. to places where animals perform.
●Support laws which are good for animals.

Everyone needs a break, and holidays are a great way to take a break and enjoy a good book. Summer vacation is coming so this is the perfect time to discuss some great English literature to take on a long train journey while you’re hanging out with the family.
If you’re at the beginner level, there are two choices: reading a children’s book or reading a book that you’ve read in Chinese translation. This will help you understand better, since you’ve already known the story. If you’re at the middle level, popular books like novels and mysteries are good choices, as they are attractive enough to increase the possibility of your understanding of the book. For top readers, science books, classical books or prize winners, such as Nobel, Pulitzer are good choices.
The most important thing is to pick a book that you’re really interested in. When I pick up a new book in Chinese, the first few pages are always really hard to get through, as I have to get used to the way the writer uses the language. But after that, things get a lot easier, especially if I like the story.
Another great way to help you read in the holiday is to find a friend who’s interested in reading the same book. You can make goals that you both want to achieve and talk about the book with each other by QQ or e-mail. I’m doing that with my friend Laura. We’ve done this since we were classmates in Chinese at college.
Some quick recommendations: Harry Potter, start with the first book and go on from there; the Narnia series; and if you like horror, Stephen King’s novels are always unusual and fun. But really you should just find a topic or writer that you’re interested in, and the rest will go from there. Happy reading!
Title
Enjoy 1. English books during the journey
2. of books
●Beginners may pick a 3. book or a book whose story is familiar to them.
●Popular books may make it 4. for middle-level readers to understand.
●Science books, classical books or prize winners may be 5. for top readers.
6. to keep you reading
●Pick a book that is interesting enough to keep you reading. After 7. used to the language, things get easier.
●Read along with a friend and 8. views with each other.
9. of some books
●Harry Potter series
●Narnia series
● The 10. by Stephen King

Women make up 50 percent of world’s population and yet they are not treated equally. They hold less than one-fifth of the all parliamentary (议会) seats around the world， occupy less than 19 percent of board (董事会) seats in Fortune 500 companies and earn 17 percent less than men for similar skills and positions. As a group， they are passed over and looked down on.
On March 8 every year， millions of women around the world celebrate International Women’s Day. It is possible that you may not have heard about the International Women’s Day in the United States. Yet Women's Day had its origin in the United States.
Women’s Day was first celebrated in February 1909 in the US to mark the one-year anniversary of the New York Garment Worker’s Strike of 1908. Women used the chance to fight against warring and fight for women’s vote rights.
Did you know that it was a Women’s Day protest in St. Petersburg in 1917， which led to the revolution (革命) for bringing down the Russian empire? After the Russian revolution， Women’s Day came to be celebrated as a communist (共产主义的) or socialist (社会主义的) holiday. As a result， the United States government didn’t accept it as a holiday.
Today Women’s Day is celebrated in places such as China and Russia as a sort of state-approved Valentine's Day or Mother's Day. The tradition in these countries is to give flowers and gifts to the important women in one's life.
In 1975， the United Nations officially announced March 8 as International Women’s Day. Since then， it has been a practice to suggest an annual theme for each year. The theme for 2016 is "Pledge For Parity." It calls on women and men to challenge the present state and inspire positive change in their communities and workplaces.
There is a lot that needs to be done. As a society， we need to offer women and girls chances to make their dreams come true， have equal chances for leadership， respect and value differences， and develop a better work environment. This day challenges and reminds that everyone can be a leader in their own small way and can take positive steps to bring about gender equality.
Our world can truly be balanced when we use the potential that women have to offer. As we prepare children for the future， it is important that girls and women not be left behind.
Women’s present situation
Women make up 1. of the world’s population.
Women get 2. chances and less money while working.

Mayme Clayton collected books, magazines and letters written by African Americans. Her son, Avery Clayton, thought her collection was important. Unlike most books,these were rare and hard to find. They were written by writers who helped shape African American culture. One book in the collection was written by Phillis Wheatley. Wheatley was a slave who wrote poetry. She was the first African American to publish (出版) a book. Wheatley herself signed (签名) the book in the Claytons’ collection. No one else owns a copy signed by Phillis Wheatley.
By the time she passed away at age 83, Mrs. Clayton had more than 30,000 books by or about black people. Her collection also includes papers about slaves, photographs, movies, sheet music, and personal letters by black leaders and artists. It is one of the biggest personal collections of African American history and culture in the United States.
Avery Clayton’s dream was to create a museum for his mother’s treasures. Scholars say that Mrs. Clayton’s collection is very important. Without her work, part of African American heritage (遗产) would have been lost. “We didn’t know these things existed,” says Sara Hadron of California’s Huntington Library.
The collections new home is likely to be in Culver City, California. Part of Avery Clayton’s dream is to share the cultural riches his mother collected with others. He especially wants kids to have a chance to see the collection. “ At present African American culture is being explained by pop culture,” he says, “ It’s important to offer a more complete picture.”

PowerPoint Presentations（PPT）are taking the place of writing on the blackboard with chalk. Someday, will robots take the place of human teachers?
In Japan, a robot is going to enter classrooms to help teachers. Last week the Japanese company Honda Motor Co. showed the public its robot at a Tokyo museum. The robot’s name is Asimo. Students will see Asimo in science classes and learn the wonders of science.
Asimo is 130 centimeters tall with a round head. It can jog, walk up stairs and wave. It can also avoid（避开）things on its way and have simple talks with you. Asimo is an experienced worker for humans. It has worked as a guide in showrooms. But this will be the first time it works as a teaching assistant in classrooms and in formal teaching!
How will Asimo help in class? A teacher explained the way Asimo works to students in last week’s show. Asimo has sensors（感应器）inside its body to keep its balance.
The smart Asimo tilted（倾斜）its body when it stood on a shaking platform（平台）. Asimo kept its balance. But a wooden person beside Asimo fell (See the above picture).
When you walk, you pass your weight from the heel to the toe. The Japanese teacher explained this with Asimo at the museum. He moved the robot in slow move. Asimo made learning science more interesting for students!
Asimo will soon help teach thousands of primary students and junior high schools in two Japanese cities. Hopefully, robot teachers will arrive in our classrooms in China one day.

Former Apple CEO Steve Jobs Passed Away
Steve Jobs, the founder and former CEO of Apple, died on October 5 at the age of 56. Jobs had been fighting with cancer since 2004. In August 2011, he quit as CEO.
When asked what Steve Jobs is best remembered for, many of us would name a particular product: the iPod, the iPhone or the iPad, for example. But in the eyes of Eric Jackson, a reporter with Forbes magazine, Jobs brought much more to the world than these popular devices. Some of the lessons he taught us were equally inspiring.
Jobs taught us how to face failure. He was fired by the successor（继任者）he himself chose. Despite this, Jobs didn't hide away. He picked himself up and continued to follow his passion.
Another valuable lesson he taught us was to listen to that voice in the back of your head — the voice that tells you if you’re on the right track or not. Most of us simply decide that we’re going to work in finance or become a doctor because our parents tell us this is what we should do. But Jobs believed and showed that it is wise to listen to that voice in your head, whatever it is telling you to do.”Steve was among the greatest American innovators— brave enough to think differently, bold enough to believe he could change the world, and talented enough to do it.” Said the US President Barack Obama.
Jobs’ death
Steve Jobs, who started Apple, died of __1._ on October 5.
__2._ for people remembering Jobs
﹡Many people are fond of particular devices, _3._ the iPod, the iPhone and the iPad.
﹡Some people, such as Erick Jackson, are inspired by his words.
_4.___ that Jobs
taught us

__6.__ to the voice in your head
It is wise to __7.___ whatever the voice in your head is telling you to do.
Remarks on Jobs from the US __8.__
As one of the greatest American innovators, Jobs was brave enough to think in a _9.__ way, bold enough to believe he could change the world, and had the _10.__ to do it.
