     Algae(水藻) are very simple plants. They grow in fresh water or salty water. Seaweed is algae that
grow in salty water. Seaweed is red or brown in color. The Japanese people use these plants from the
sea in many ways. From it, they make a food called Kombu. Kombu is seaweed that has been dried,
cooked and pressed together. Then it is dried again and cut into long pieces. The Japanese eat a lot of
Kombu and like it very much.  
     Japanese farmers often use seaweed as fertilizer. It makes their plants grow better. Many farmers
also find seaweed makes a fine food for their animals.  
     From seaweed the Japanese also get iodine(碘), which they sell to other countries. Iodine is used
in many ways all over the world. It is used in making medicine. It is added to the salt we use at the table.
Scientists even use one form of iodine to “ seed clouds” when they want rain to fall.

2. In the last sentence of the text, “seed clouds” means ____.

     Mr.Clinton and his 3-year-old son Tony are basketball fans. Last October 10th was Tony’s birthday,
so Mr.Clinton decided to drive him to New York, for the first game of the World Series. They had no
ticket but hoped to buy a pair from scalpers.  
     It was a two hours’ ride. After they arrived, they walked in the street for two hours, carrying a sign
(牌子) that read, “ We need two tickets.” There were many scalpers around, but the cheapest ticket
was $200. They were about to leave when suddenly a man stopped them. He took out two tickets and
handed them to Mr. Clinton.  
     “How much do you want?”   
     “Just a present,” said the man. “Enjoy the game.”  
     Mr. Clinton wouldn’t accept, so the man explained, “I’m Jackson. Hans is my boss. He and his wife
haven’t missed a World Series in 18 years. But he is ill and can’t watch the game this time. So he told
me to give the two tickets to people who I thought would actually enjoy the game. A lot of people
looked as if they might just take the tickets and sell them. Then I saw you and I followed you for a while.
You seemed very disappointed. You made me think of my dad and me when I was a child. I dreamed
of going to a World Series game with my father. But my dream never came true.”  
     How do you suppose this made Mr. Clinton and his son feel? Here is what Mr. Clinton said: “This is
the most wonderful thing that ever happened to us. My boy and I must have turned to each other over
30 times and said, ‘I can’t believe this.’ We still never forget Jackson and Hans.”

       The sun was shining as Kevin walked to the old bench(长凳) where he met Mike every afternoon
after school. They were good friends and loved to play football. They didn’t have enough money to buy
a real football, but Mike had made a ball out of old socks covered with a piece of plastic. It wasn’t
beautiful, but it worked well. The two friends didn’t stop kicking and running until very late.
       The next afternoon, Mike and Kevin met again at the old bench. Soon the home-made ball was
spinning(旋转) across the grass as the boys laughed and shouted happily. The ball was stopped by a
boy wearing a nice pair of sneakers(运动鞋). Kevin was upset when he saw it was Steven.
      The next morning, Kevin’s mother gave him an envelope(信封). “Your uncle sent you a birthday
present,” she smiled. Kevin’s eyes grew big when he saw the $100 bill. Later that day, a pair of new
sneaker lay next to his chair, and in the corner, a real football.
      The next afternoon, Steven invited Kevin to play football on the field next to the library. Steven did
not want Mike to join them only because Mike’s sneakers were dirty and he was not good at football.
When the game was over, Kevin and Steven walked past the old bench where Mike was sitting. Steven
picked up a stone and threw it at him. Kevin, holding his new football in his hands, walked on and did
not look back.
     One afternoon, as Kevin walked past the old bench, he saw something lying under it. He looked
closer and saw it was the home-made ball. Kevin was full of sorrow at the sight of his old home-made
ball, and he let out a sad sigh(叹气). As his sadness turned to anger, he picked up his new football and
kicked it into the air. Kevin kicked it so hard that it flew past the library and over the school gate. Then
Kevin walked to the bench and picked up his home-made ball. Holding it in his hands, Kevin sat down
and waited.

     Friendship is one of the greatest pleasures that people can enjoy. A true friend does indeed share joys and sorrows with us. In time of trial, he or she is always at our side to give us his or her help and comfort. A true friend can always be trusted, loved and respected. They help each other when they are in trouble, and cheer each other when they are upset. The most important thing is that a friend always understands you.
