It is a dangerous time to be a child in Yemen. Besides facing war, hunger and poverty, more than 25 percent of children are not in school.
But eight-year-old singer Amr Muqbel, known as “The Water Seller,” is different. He attends school in the morning. In the afternoons, he used to sell water to help support his family. Now, he makes extra money singing for weddings, fans and several major Arabic news channels.
“I'm proud he has become a singer,” said Ahmed Muqbel, Amr's 70-year-old father, with tears in his eyes. One of their relatives is a soldier, he added, and Amr used to sing war songs. Now, he sings about love and peace in a country where other children can be forced to join military groups.
Amr first became well-known this year when a local hiker recorded him singing to a group of people. The hiker posted the recording on Facebook, where it received 20,000 likes, loves and sad faces. Since then, the boy appears on Arab media regularly.
Amr's family remains poor, however. He, his mother and his four siblings (兄弟姐妹) still struggle to survive in a small house. But as Amr gains the attention of music professionals, the family hopes his voice will help lift them further out of poverty.
His father wants to go to Lebanon so Amr can try to get into the professional music business. His mother wants Amr to continue to be mentored (指导) locally, so he can sing more often at weddings to increase the family's income. “His songs come out from his heart,” said Mohammed al-Adaimi, a 23-year-old who listens to Amr's songs on YouTube. “He should stay and sing for us and we will support him.” Other local people said they are proud that a young Yemeni is getting international attention. “He is a talented boy” said Mabrouk al-Baqash, who has been listening to Amr sing for eight months. “It's fine to travel to Lebanon.”
1.Why is Amr different from many other children?
A.He has been selling water locally. B.He can go to school all the time.
C.He can sing to support his family. D.He doesn’t suffer from poverty.
2.What can we know about Amr?
A.He can’t go to school and is in danger in Yemen.
B.He can’t help his family out of poverty at present.
C.He makes his father disappointed as a local singer.
D.He has to serve in army because of singing war songs.
3.Who supported Amr to go to Lebanon?
A.His parents. B.Ahmed and Mohammed.
C.Ahmed and Mabrouk. D.His mother and Mabrouk.
4.Which of the following can best describe Amr?
A.Gifted. B.Proud.
C.Far-sighted. D.Well-educated.

Six orders an hour is the norm for the lunchtime rush, but Guo said he is sometimes called upon to deliver ten meals. “5. You just have to apologize.” he said.
Nevertheless, Guo said he thrives on deadline pressure. “I’m the kind of person who likes challenging work,” he added.
A.That’s really difficult, and if you arrive late, customers get angry.
B.One order down, six to go.
C.The tradition of going out for a meal has been under pressure from the fast pace of urban life.

The fiddler crab (蟹) is a living clock. It shows the time of day by the colour of its skin, which is dark by day and pale by night. The crab’s changing colour follows a regular twenty—four hour plan that exactly matches the daily rhythm of the sun.
Does the crab actually keep time, or does its skin simply answer to the sun’s rays, changing colour according to the amount of light strikes it? To find out, biologists kept crabs in a dark room for two months. Even without daylight, the crab’s skin colour continued to change exactly on time.
This characteristic probably developed gradually in answer to the daily rising and setting of the sun, to help protect the crab from sunlight and enemies. After millions of years it has become completely regulated (受控制) inside the living body of the crab.
The biologists noticed that once each day the colour of the fiddler crab is especially dark, and that each day this happens fifty minutes later than on the day before. From this they discovered that each crab follows not only the rhythm of the sun but also that of the tides (潮水). The crab’s period of greatest darkening is exactly the time of low tide on the beach where it was caught!
1.The fiddler crab is like a clock because it changes colour ______.
A in a regular 24—hour rhythm B. in answer to the sun’s rays
C. at low tide D. every fifty minutes
2.The crab’s changing colour ______.
A. tells the crab what time it is B. protects the crab from the sunlight and enemies
C. keeps the crab warm D. is of no real use
3. When the fiddler crabs were kept in the dark , they ______.
A. did not change colour B. changed colour more quickly
C. changed colour more slowly D. changed colour on the same timetable
4.The crab’s colour—changing ability was probably developed ______.
A. in the process of evolution (进化) B. over millions of years
C. by the work of biologists D. both A and B
5.The best title for this selection would be ______.
A. The Sun and the Tides B. Discoveries in Biology
C. A scientific Study D. A Living Clock
