     Thirty years ago,Lake Ponkapog in Hartwell,New Jersey,was full of life. Many birds and animals lived beside the water,which was full of fish. Now there are few birds,animals,or fish. The lake water is polluted. It is in a colour of dirty brown,and it is filled with strange plants.

     How did this happen? First,we must think about how water gets into Lake Ponkapog. When it rains,water comes into the lake from all around. In the past, there were forests all round Lake Ponkapog,so the rainwater was clean.

     Now there are many homes around the lake. People often use the chemicals in their gardens. They use other chemicals inside their houses for cleaning and killing insects. There are also many businesses. Businesses use chemicals in their machines of shops. So more bad chemicals go into the water this way.

     People in Hartwell are worried. They love their lake and want to save it. Will it be possible? Clean rainwater is possible only if people are more careful about chemicals at home and other chemicals on the ground. And they mustn't use motorboats any more on the lake. All these may change people's lives. Only then can Lake Ponkapog be a beautiful,clean lake again.

() 1. Chemicals from homes and businesses .

   A. are always clean

   B. can help the animals

   C. are good for the lake

   D. get into the rainwater

() 2. To save Lake Ponkapog,people need to .

   A. be more careful about chemicals

      There are many things you can do to keep friendship strong.

      Believing is very important in keeping any relationship strong and long. If you believe a person whom you have a good relationship with and the person also believes you in the same way,then you two have a good relationship.

     Almost every day,we use a computer to search information,send e-mails and play games. But everything would not go so well without its friend :small,clickable mouse.

     In 1968,US inventor Douglas Engelbart showed a cute machine to the public. It was a small wooden box with two metal wheels to roll back and forth. On top of it,there was a small red button that you could click. The machine was connected to the computer with a cable that looked like a “tail”. That's how it got its name “mouse”. This was the first mouse that could fit into a user's hand 

      Engelbart wanted computers to be more user-friendly. And he certainly succeeded. The coming of the mouse changed the way in which humans work together with computers. Instead of typing orders with a keyboard,users can now go faster with a mouse.

     But the mouse didn,t become popular until more than 10 years later. Apple's CEO Steve Jobs showed Applet Lisa computers with a mouse during the early 1980s. Since then,the mouse has been made in many shapes,sizes and colors,but allbased on the idea of Engelbart^ design.

Although there are touchpads (觸摸板) and touch-sensitive screens,the mouse is still an important part of all modern computers.


() 1. The mouse first became popular .
