One day, 50 people were attending a speech. The speaker was delivering a speech about happiness. However, after a few hours, people gradually lost their attention. The speaker came up with an idea. He stopped his speech and asked all of the people to participate in a group activity.
He gave a single balloon to each person in the room. Each person was asked to write his or her name on the balloon with a black marker. Then, all of the balloons were collected and moved to another room.

Fun Facts about Our Moon
Have you ever noticed the ways the moon changes? The moon can be bright or dull. Sometimes, we don't see the moon in the sky at all! Other times, the moon shows up even when the sun is out.
When the moon looks bright, it's partly because of the sun. The moon has no light of its own. It only reflects the sun's light. But how?
Think about daytime. The sun makes everything around you bright with light. During daytime, sunlight hits Earth's surface and makes it bright. During nighttime, the sun is near another part of Earth's surface, making that part bright, so you see darkness. At night, you also see the moon.

In the same way that sunlight shines on Earth's surface and makes it bright, sunlight shines on the moon's surface and makes that bright. Even though you can't see the sun at night, sunlight reaches the moon's surface. The sun acts like a giant flashlight in the sky that's pointed at the moon.
Other things can make the moon look brighter or duller, too. Sometimes, the moon looks brighter because it's closer to Earth. Fog and clouds in the sky can make the moon look dimmer.
The moon is always in the sky, but we don't usually see it during daytime. One reason for this is that the sun is so powerful that it makes the sky very bright. The brightness makes the moon hard to see. Imagine turning on a flashlight in a darkroom and aiming it at a wall. You would see the flashlight's bright light clearly. Now, imagine turning on a flashlight in a room that already has all the lights on. You would hardly see the light from the flashlight because the other lights are more powerful. The moon becomes difficult to see in daytime for the same reason.
The next time you see the big, bright moon in the sky, think of the sun shining its light onto it.
【1】The word "reflects" in paragraph 2 probably means _______.
A.sends back B.thinks about C.picks up D.carries on
【2】What can we learn from the passage?
A.The moon cannot be seen in daytime.
B.The moon shines bright from the sun.
C.You can see the flashlight's light in a bright room clearly.
D.You can see a brighter moon when it's farther from the Earth.
【3】What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?
A.To introduce why the sun shines brightly.
B.To state reasons that make the sun look bright or dull.
C.To tell how darkness makes the moon look bright in the sky.
D.To explain reasons that make the moon look different sometimes.

Something happens to many children when they are out of school over the summer months. It is called the "summer slide." This may sound like a ride at a water park. But it's not. Summer slide is the children forget much of what they learned during the latest school year. To fight the effects of summer slide, some parents send children to camp or find other activities to keep them learning. As the new school year begins, most children are soon very busy with new classes and school-related activities. However, experts say keeping children busy all the time is not good for them.
What should parents do instead? Nothing.
Lea Waters is a psychologist, who has been working on helping children succeed for over 20 years. Waters says slowing down actually helps children become the best they can be. "It's a little bit like, if you have too many programs running on your computer, your computer starts to slow down. And when you shut down those programs, your computer runs faster. It's very much like that for a child's brain." Machines need to be reset, while kids need to goof off. "What I mean by goofing off is really allowing kids to have some downtime. They don't need to do a specific task. They can do something that they choose to do like shooting baskets, or doing a creative project, cooking. It's a project they're interested in doing that they can do. "
She adds that goofing off does not mean the brain isn't working. "It uses that time to make a kind of decision about what information I should keep and put into my memory, what information I do not need and I get rid of. It's also an essential network for helping us to remember better, to develop emotional intelligence and a sense of identity... "
Lea Waters says she hopes parents will accept the fact that children don't have to be busy all the time. Children and adults need time to goof off now and then.
【1】According to the passage, summer slide is the children _______.
A.take rides at a water park B.take part in the summer camp
C.learn some of the information in summer D.forget some of what they learned last term
【2】According to the passage, Waters probably agrees that _______.
A.parents can keep their kids learning during summer vocation
B.keeping the children busy all the time is good for their study
C.kids can do ball games which they like during summer holiday
D.making children do network can help them remember better
【3】Waters mentions the computer in Paragraph 3 to show that _______.
A.children need to relax B.computer works faster than child's brain
C.children need to remember slowly D.computer helps the kids to rest
【4】What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Should Parents Help Children? B.Should Parents Keep Busy Working?
C.Is 'Goofing Off' Good for Children? D.Is 'Summer Slide' Bad for Children?

World Teachers' Day
Who do you want to thank most? Maybe your parents or other family members. But for some of the most successful people in the world, their answer is teachers in their childhood.
Bill Gates thanked his high school maths teacher, Fred Wright, saying, "There wouldn't be a Microsoft without him doing what he did." Fred asked him to push himself just a little bit harder. Maybe that's why Gates sometimes slept under Fred's desk in the office instead of going home to relax after work.
For some children, teachers are the only positively influential people in their lives. Antwone Fisher, a best-selling writer, grew up in foster homes. And he didn't have many adults that he could trust. But a primary school teacher, Mrs Profitt, was the first adult he ever trusted. "She spoke to all of us the same way – with respect. No one spoke to me that way before. I think that being with her for three years made all the difference," Fisher said.
There are thousands more stories like this, from famous people and ordinary people all across the world. That's why UNESCO celebrates World Teachers' Day on October 5th every year. UNESCO wants us to remember that education is a basic human right and every child should have free education. UNESCO hopes to train 69 million new teachers by 2030 so that everyone can go to school, because, sadly, 264 million children in the world today are not in school because there aren't enough teachers. Those children are often in places where life is already very difficult.
So, if you have a teacher, you're one of the lucky ones. One day, you'll probably look back at your life, your successes, the dreams you've made come true or the difficult things you've solved. The chances are high that you'll find a teacher's words have helped you achieve these things. Perhaps you already know who that teacher will be. Why not find them and say thank you on World Teachers' Day?
