| On a hot summer day, a soft drink can really take away your thirst. At home, at school, in the park or at the movies-you can find one almost anywhere. Carbonated (碳酸的) You can see bubbles in these! Of all soft drinks sold, about 75 percent are carbonated. But be careful, carbonated soft drinks have lots of sugar and caffeine. Caffeine is not very good for you in the summer, because it takes water out of your body. And the sugar can make you overweight if you drink too much. Fruit juice There are different kinds of juice. One kind is made only from fresh fruit. This kind of fruit juice may not taste sweet enough for some people, but it is nutritious. Another kind of fruit juice tastes good but has lots of sugar in it. Many young people buy this kind because the advertisements are good. It is bad for your teeth and bones to drink lots of this. Energy drinks These kinds of drinks have caffeine and things that make people get excited in them. They are sometimes called"party drinks". Doctors say that if you drink too much of this kind, you may have a heart attack. Bottled water We have lots of different kinds of bottled water, such as mineral water, purified water and distilled (蒸馏 的) water. They are clean and easy to drink.

| An ancient Egyptian mummy thought to be that of Pharaoh Ramses I (法老一世) has returned home after more than 140 years in North American museums. The body was carried off the plane in Cairo in a box covered in Egypt's flag. The Michael Carlos Museum gave it back after tests showed it was probably that of the man who ruled 3,000 years ago. The US museum acquired it three years ago from a Canadian museum, which in turn is thought to have bought it from Egyptian gave robbers in 1860.The mummy was welcomed back home with songs and military band music during a ceremony at the national museum in Cairo. Zahi Hawass, head of Egypt's Supreme Council of Antiquities (文物最高委员会), traveled from the US with the body and said it would be moved next year to the Luxor Museum in southern Egypt."We are not 100% sure that mummy is that of Ramses I," said Mr. Hawass."But we are 100% sure that it is of a king." Atlanta's Michael Carlos Museum acquired the mummy in 1999, but offered to return it after hi-tech scanning equipment indicated it was likely to be that of Ramses I. The museum website said it had been acquired from the Niagara Falls Museum. It is thought a Canadian collector bought the mummy for the Niagara Falls Museum around 1860 from an Egyptian family which had came across a tomb filled with royal mummies at a site near Luxor. Mr.Hawass praised the handover as"a great, civilized gesture". And he appealed to other world museums to return Egypt's antiquities, particularly the Rosetta Stone in the Britain Museum and the Bust of Nefertiti in the Berlin Museum. |

| It's not entirely true that kids learn a second language easily, but it's still the best time to learn. Babies are basically equipped to hear and distinguish every possible language and dialect, but once they reach 6 months old, they begin to focus on the particular sounds that exist in the languages that they're exposed to. In this way, kids will naturally and automatically be bilingual (双语的) if they hear multiple languages on a daily basis when they are still babies.. One lady told me of her son who grew up in a very multi-cultural community working at a resort. He would naturally and easily switch from Dutch, to French, to Italian, German and English depending on who he was talking to. Of course that's an extreme case, but it's completely possible and easy. It' s not true that they will get mixed up by learning multiple languages. They may mix them up purposely simply because certain words or expressions are easier, but they won't develop any permanent language disabilities. Quite the contrary, bilingual children have been shown to be as much as a year more advanced in learning ability development for 2 and 3 years olds. Some kids who simply aren't gifted at learning languages, just as some aren't gifted at sports or music, will find it difficult to continue schooling in a foreign language. In that case, it may be better not to continue with the foreign language school. Still, it will have been an excellent opportunity for Grade One. Perhaps for Grade Two you could try a bilingual school. In any case, learning even a small amount of a foreign language, maintaining the ability to hear and pronounce it by listening to music and movies will keep a foundation for later learning. Knowing a second language can be a great benefit for gaining employment. |
| 1. What's the main idea of the first paragraph? |
| A. It's difficult for kids to learn a second language. B. Kids are able to learn multiple languages. C. Kids should be exposed to the native language. D. Kids enjoy all kinds of different dialects. |
| 2. What did the lady tell us about her son? |
| A. He could speak five kinds of languages. B. He was learning some different languages. C. He could talk with many people at the same time. D. He was working in a multi-community. |
| 3. In which way can learning multiple languages benefit kids according to the text? |
|
A. Mixing up different languages. |
| 4. What should you do if your kids are not good at learning language? |
| A. Ask them to turn to sports or music. B. Encourage them to remain in Grade One C. Let them remain in the foreign language school. D. Send them to a bilingual school later. |

| Scientists in the United States say plant life has increased on Earth in the past twenty years and that in every area of plant growth the increase is the result of weather conditions. Eight scientists from across the United States did the study. The space agency NASA and the Department of Energy paid for it. The findings were published in the magazine Science. The researchers spent one and a half years examining weather satellite information. The information was recorded from 1982 to 1999.That period was one of the warmest on record. Researchers found that rainfall generally increased during that time. The satellites measured the number of leaves on plants and the amount of sunlight taken in. The scientists used that information to estimate what is called net primary production. This is total amount of carbon stored in land plants. The scientists report a 6% increase in stored carbon since 1982.They say gains were high in equatorial areas, especially around the Amazon River in South America. The area alone had a 1% increase in the net primary production. Ramakrishna Nemani of the University of Montana in Missoula headed the study. He says reduced cloud cover led to growth in Amazon area. He also says the lack of clouds allowed more sunlight to get through. More sunlight meant increases in photosynthesis (光合作用).That is the process by which plants use energy from sunlight to produce the chemicals they need to grow. Northern Canada, the north-central United States and northern Europe were second in increased plant growth.Ramakrishna Nemani says a rise in temperature helped plants there. All together, the report says 25% of areas of plant life on Earth experienced increases. But the scientists also note increase in the number of people on Earth and carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. Ranga Myneni of Boston University in Massachusetts, another study scientist says humans use about half the net primary production on Earth. And he notes that the world population grew by 36% during the period of time studied. |
| 1. Which of the following is in charge of the study? |
| A. The space agency NASA of the US. B. The Department of Energy of the US. C. Ramakrishna Nemani in Missoula. D. Ranga Myneni in Massachusetts. |
| 2. What's the main cause of the plant growth put forward by the study? |
| A. Growth in population. B. Regional features. C. Seasonal variation. D. Weather conditions |
| 3. Why do scientists believe that reduced cloud cover has led to the plant growth in the Amazon area? |
| A. Because plants could take in more sunlight. B. Because plants could get more rainfall. C. Because plants could enjoy cooler air. D. Because plants suffer less from natural disasters. |
| 4. Which of the following descriptions about the years from 1982 to 1999 is TRUE? |
| A. It was the warmest on record. B. Rainfall decreased little by little. C. World population grew by 25%. D. Stored carbon increased by 6%. |
