There was once a captain who loved money so much that he cheated his sailors at the end of every voyage and took their wages.

　　On the last day of one voyage, the ship was in a small port. It was winter time, and the sea was very cold, so the captain said to his sailors, "If one of you stays in the water during the whole night, I will give him my ship. But if he comes out before the sun appears, I shall get his wages."

　　The sailors had heard about the captain's cheating, so they didn't trust him. But then one of them, who thought that he was cleverer than the captain, said that he would do it. He got into the water, and, though it was very cold, he stayed in it. When it was nearly morning, some fishermen lit a fire on the shore about half a mile away.

　　"You are cheating," the captain said to the sailor. "The fire's warming you."

　　"But it's half a mile away!" said the sailor.

　　"A fire's fire," answered the captain. "I have won."

　　The sailor came out of the water, and said, "Perhaps you think that you are clever because you have won my wages, but you can't cook a chicken."

　　"I can," answered the captain.

　　"If you cook this chicken," said the sailor, "I shall work for you without wages for seven years, but if you can't, you will give me your ship."

　　The captain agreed, took the chicken and said, "Where's the fire?"

　　"There it is," answered the sailor. "On the shore."

　　"But it's half a mile away," said the captain angrily.

　　" A  fire's fire, you said," answered the sailor. "If it is enough to warm me in the water, it is enough to cook your chicken."

    It has been a dream for 30 years but now the world’s first flying car is set to hit the roads this year.

    Ever since the “Back to the Future” movies lit up our screens in the 1980s，designers have dreamt of cars that could take to the sky at the push of a button．And now pilots can order their own “roadable” plane for just £ 127,000.

    The plane，which has fold-out wings that span(翼展)17．5 ft.，has a range of flying distance of 460 miles and can be up to 115 mph．Back on the land，it can also travel at“highway speeds”in car mode(状态)．

    Fueling the 19 ft. long plane couldn’t be simpler----you just drive it into a petrol station and fill it up．

    A spokeswoman said，“You can keep you ‘light-sport airplane’in your garage．But because it needs a short runway to take to the air，you will have to drive to your local airport，fly up to 460 miles，land，and drive directly to your destination．You will always be ready to drive or fly．"

    The spokeswoman added，“Never let bad weather change your trip．You call simply divert(改道)and continue on the ground until the weather clears．”   

    There is no risk to you—This is only the chance for you to be the first at your home field to unfold your wings and fly into the future．

The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health. There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!

But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine(咖啡碱)in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much. Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee(IOC) has limited(限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.

Money Matters   

Parents should help their children understand money.  36   So you may start talking about money when your child shows and interest in buying things, candy or toys , for example.

1. The basic function of money

Begin explaining the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or services. It is important to show your child how money is traded for the things he wants to have. If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier(收银员).  37  When your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money, you can start explaining more complex (复杂的) ways of using money .

2. Money lessons

Approach money lessons with openness and honesty.  38   If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money , explain, “you have enough toy trucks for now.” Or, if the request is for many different things, say, “ You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy.”

3.  39     

Begin at the grocery store（杂货店）.Pick out two similar brands of a product—a name-brand butter and a generic (无商标产品)， for example. You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money .  40   If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make another purchase with the money saved. Later, you may explain how the more expensive choice leaves less money for other purchases.

A. Talk about how the money bought the thing after you leave the toy store.

B. The value of money

C. The best time to teach a child anything about money is when he shows an interest     

D. Permit the child to choose between them

E. Ask yourself what things that cost money are most important to you

F. Tell your child why he can ---or cannot---have certain things

G. Wise decisions

Secondly,  there   65   (be) many idiomatic ways of saying things in Chinese. And it is extremely hard for us to put them into English 66__ (proper).

As far as I am ___67___ (concern), my suggestion is  ___68___  we should always have a notebook and a Chinese-English dictionary within easy reach.

In short, I believe that it is of great use to keep a diary in English for ___70___  development of our writing skills.
