Ronny's Book Ronny looked like every other kid in the first-grade classroom where I volunteered as the Reading Mom. However, Ronny stood apart from his classmates in other ways. He had a speech problem so he couldn't 1 like other kids in his grade. I worked with all the students in Ronny's class one by one to improve their reading skills. On the days when it was Ronny's 2 , I'd give him a silent smile, and he'd fly out of his chair. He sat very close to me and opened the book as if he was opening a treasure nobody had ever seen. I watched his fingers move slowly under each letter as he struggled（努力） to read out. Every time he 3 to read a word with a strange pronunciation, the biggest smile would spread across his face and his eyes would shine with pride. It broke my heart each and every time. A few weeks before the year ended, I held an awards ceremony（颁奖典礼）.I 4 Ronny with book—one of those Little Golden Books that only cost $5. Tears （眼泪） ran down his face as he held the book close to him and went back to his seat. I stayed with the class for the rest of the day. Ronny never let go of the 5 ，not once . It never left his hands. A few days later, I returned to the school to visit. I 6 Ronny on a chair near the playground, the book open in his lap. His teacher said, “He hasn’t put that book down since you gave it to him. Do you know that's his first book he's ever actually owned?” Keeping back my tears, I walked towards Ronny, placed my hand on his shoulder and asked, "Will you read me your book, Ronny?" And then, for the next few minutes, he read to me more 7 than I'd' ever thought possible from him. The pages were already dog-eared, like the book had been read thousands of times already. When he finished reading, Ronny closed his book and said with great satisfaction,” Good book!" What a powerful contribution（贡献） the writer of that Little Golden Book had made in the life of a disadvantaged child.

The line was long and filled with kids of all ages. Two teenagers stood in front of them. Matt looked at their designs and his eyes widened. “their kites are a lot better than ours. Look! This kite looks like an airplane, and that one looks like a spaceship, but our kite is a boring diamond （菱形）!” “What if we give it a cool-looking tail?” Allie suggested. They cheered up a little and worked together on their kite all the weekend. To make the kite look better, they added tail with beads（珠子） and tiny mirrors. On the day of the compotition, Allie and Matt carried their kite to the starting place between the spaceship and the airplane. The rules were simple.

Few of us have heard of Nils Bohlin, but whenever we take a car journey, his invention makes us safer. Found in almost every modem car, the three-point seat belt reduces our chances of death or injury （伤害） by at least 50%. While feeling thankful to this engineer from Volvo, you may also wonder how he came up with such a great idea. Having worked as a plane designer before, Nils knew clearly that the pilots were willing to put on anything to keep them safe in an accident, but to his surprise, most people in the cars just didn't want to be uncomfortable for even a minute. To improve the safety for people in the cars, he decided to find a perfect system which should be simple, effective and convenient. In the end, he invented the three-point seat belt, which has been considered as one of the greatest inventions in history. Seat belts prevent people in the cars from serious injury in five ways. Keep people inside. People who are thrown out from a car are four times more likely to be killed than those who stay inside. Protect the strongest parts of the body. Seat belts are designed to fix your body at its strongest parts. For an older child and adult, these parts are the hips （臀部） and shoulders. Spread out the force in an accident. Seat belts spread the force of the accident over a wide area of the body. By putting less stress on one area, they can help you avoid serious injury. Seat belts also help keep your upper body away from the hard parts of the car if you stop suddenly or are hit by another car. Help the body to slow down. A quick speed causes injury. With the help of the seat belts, your body can have more time to slow down in an accident. Protect your brain and spinal cord （脊柱）. Seat belts are designed to protect these two key areas of the human body. Head and spinal cord injuries may be hard to see immediately, but they can cause death. Therefore, it's of great importance to protect these parts. It takes only few seconds to buckle up （系好安全带） once you get in the car, but this simple action could save your life. Why wouldn't you? 【1】Three-point seat belts reduce chances of death or injury by at least __________. A.10% B.30% C.40% D.50% 【2】From the passage we can learn _________. A.hips and shoulders aren't the older children and adults' strongest parts. B.seat belts can keep your knees and feet away from the hard parts of the car. C.the body has more time to slow down in an accident with the help of seat belts. D.head and spinal cord injuries might be easy to see immediately and cause death. 【3】This passage is mainly about _____________. A.how seat belts are made B.how seat belts are used C.how seat belts save lives D.how seat belts develop better

Living next to next is the principle （原则） of a neighbor. Good neighborliness is the ideal to be aimed at. As the saying goes, no man is an island; he has to live with his neighbors. To make life easy and pleasant he must cooperate with his neighbors. Whether one likes it or not, one cannot do without neighbors. Normally one may think he can do without neighbors because he can manage all comforts and services, so the services or the need for friend may not happen. However, the sympathy （同情）, admiration and appreciation which a neighbor may offer will have great humanizing influence. To share one's view and sometimes even sadness, one needs some neighbors. But all neighbors are not always keeping the friendly relationship. Stresses and tension （紧张） develop because of misunderstanding. Very often children may be the cause for tense feelings. The neighbor's son may pick a flower or a fruit from your garden and an argument may follow. Again he may throw his ball at your window breaking it. These are common cases so far as the younger one is concerned but it is for the elders to view them with calmness and make up for it. This may read easy on paper but not so in real life. But being broad minded, one must be able to tolerate （容忍）. Another reason for tension may be the animals. Your neighbor’s dog may be real trouble or his chickens would come into your garden and eat away your plants. In all these cases to keep up good neighborliness, some understanding between the neighbors is important. Small differences can be easily patched up or worked out. Try to be friendly and the problem will not be difficult to solve. Care can at times play a good part and help the neighbors in a small or big way. Nobody is perfect and it is better not to speak ill of your neighbors. A cheerful word, a nod or a small talk will strengthen the feeling of good neighborliness. Neighborliness is not only for people but it is also largely important between neighboring countries. History has got lot to teach on this. Unless countries learn to live as good neighbors, there cannot be peace on earth. So children must be taught at home and in the school to cooperate with the neighbors and be friendly with them. The basic rule is to give and take and to develop a sense that the other man has as much right as you do, and some degree of tolerance is very necessary. 【1】What can we learn from the first paragraph? A.One is often needed by his family. B.No one likes to be alone on an island. C.Everyone has to live with his neighbors. D.Everyone lives an easy and pleasant life. 【2】Which of the following may cause misunderstanding? A.Hobbies and habits. B.Children and pets. C.Sports and games. D.Likes and dislikes. 【3】What does the sentence "Small differences can be easily patched up or worked out." in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A.Praising others can help to be good neighbors. B.Unimportant disagreement can be easily solved. C.One can easily make good use of small arguments. D.Nobody can be perfect enough to speak ill of others. 【4】In the passage, the writer tries to ________. A.show the important of getting on with neighbors B.teach the basic rules of behaving well at home C.explain the reasons of learning teamwork D.introduce ways of being a better person

Ready, Set, Jump! For skydivers, the sky isn't the limit. It's just the beginning. Thousands of people try skydiving each year. Some only jump once, while others go on to experience lifelong adventures, flying and turning over through the air. Skydiving is a method of leaving an airplane and returning to the earth with the help of gravity, then slowing down by using parachute （降落伞）. It may include more or less free-fall, a time during which the parachute has not been used and the body gradually accelerates（加速）to the highest speed. There are three choices for the beginners. However, before you try skydiving, ground course on safety is required. The first method is accelerated free-fall. You jump out of the plane while being held by two coaches, one on either side. They hold onto you until you open your parachute. The second method is called static line. After jumping out, you will experience free-fall for a second or two. Then the weight of your body will pull the line tight, opening the parachute. Tandem（串联） is the most popular because it is the easiest. You and the coach are tied together, the coach behind, with you in front. You jump out of the plane together, and the coach takes care of opening the parachute. For each of these three methods, the coaches give instructions in the air with hand signals（信号）or a radio. If you are eager to try something challenging and would love to feel the freedom of flying, skydiving might be an adventure for you. Who knows? With risk and excitement mixed together. skydiving might just change your life. 【1】Do thousands of people try skydiving each year? ______________________________________________________________ 【2】How many choices are there for the beginners? ______________________________________________________________ 【3】Why is tandem the most popular? ______________________________________________________________ 【4】How do the coaches give instructions in the air? ______________________________________________________________ 【5】What is the passage mainly about? ______________________________________________________________
