We each have a memory(記憶力). That’s why we can still remember things after a long time. Some people have very good memories and they can easily learn many things by heart, but some people can only remember things when they say or do them again and again. Many of the great men of the world have got unusual memories.
A good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns his mother language when he is a small child. He hears the sounds, remembers them and then he learns to speak. Some children are living with their parents in foreign countries. They can learn two languages as easily as one because they hear, remember and speak two languages every day. In school it is not so easy to learn a foreign language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too.
But your memory will become better and better when you do more and more exercises.

There are many ways to find a job. It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement(通告) board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.
Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking(尋找) workers.
Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist(網(wǎng)站名)Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.
Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas in Austin（奧斯丁 (美國得克薩斯州首府)） can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called “What Color is Your Parachute (降落傘)?” by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career (職業(yè)) since it was first published in nineteen seventy.
Some experts(專家) also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles.

  Height is just one of the thousands of features your genes decide. In fact, because you have two parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If both your parents are tall, then most probably you will be tall, too, but if you have questions about how tall you’re going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out.
But genes don’t decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential(潛力). Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height.
No doubt you’re wondering how fast you should grow. It depends. There’s no perfect or right answer. Generally speaking, kids grow about 2 inches (6 centimeters) a year between age 3 and the time when they start puberty (when your body starts changing and becoming more grown up).
Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years. Two centimeters here and 2 inches there are not nearly as important as the height you’re at now, how you’ve been growing up to this point, and what other changes your body may be going through.
Don’t be scared if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a growth spurt（高峰）during puberty. The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys. But it can be earlier or later ----between 7 and 13 for girls and 9 and 15 for boys.
You’ll usually begin to notice that you’re growing faster about a year or so after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty. 
小題1:. The Chinese for the word “puberty” is 　　　　　　　　　.
A．童年時期B．嬰幼兒時期C．習慣養(yǎng)成期D．生長發(fā)育期
小題2: If you want to know how fast and how tall you should grow, _____.
A．you should have enough exerciseB．you can ask doctors for help
C．you should save the environmentD．You can record your growth during puberty
小題3: This passage is mainly about 　　　　　　　　　.
A．how the genes work in your bodyB．when is the time you grow fast
C．why you look like your parentsD．how you grow to a certain height
小題4: After reading this passage, we can explain 　　　　　　　　　.
A．how good it is to be a doctorB．how much sleep time we need
C．why genes can’t decide everythingD．what healthy diet is
小題5: Which is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A．Your height most probably depends on how high your parents are.
B．Girls’ age for starting puberty is usually earlier than that for boys’.
C．The time showing the first changes of puberty is never noticed.
D．You may be scared sometimes when you grow too fast.

Millions of stars are travelling about in space. A few form groups which travel together, but most of them travel alone.
And they travel through a universe which is so large that one star seldom comes near to another. For the most important part each star makes its journey in complete loneliness, like a ship on an empty ocean. The ship will be well over a million miles from its nearest neighbour. From this it is easy to understand why a star seldom finds another anywhere near it.
We believe, however, that some two thousand million years ago, another star wandering(漫游) through space, happened to come near our sun just as the sun and the moon raised its tides(潮汐) on the earth, so this star must have raised tides on the surface of the sun. But they were very different from the small tides that are raised in our oceans; A large tidal(潮汐的) wave must have travelled over the surface of the sun, at last forming a mountain so high that we cannot imagine it. As the cause of the disturbance came nearer, so the mountain rose higher and higher. And before the star began to move away again, its tidal pull had become so powerful that this mountain was torn to pieces and thrown off small parts of itself into space.
These small pieces have been going round the sun ever since. They are the planets.
小題1:Most stars are _________________________.
A．following a regular path in space
B．moving about without a fixed course
C．seldom wandering about in the universe
D．a(chǎn)lways travelling together
小題2:Some two thousand years ago, the mountain on the sun was raised probably because _____________.
A．the star moved away from the sun
B．a(chǎn)nother star happened to come near the sun
C．the sun and the moon raised the tides on the earth
D．a(chǎn) large tidal of wave travelled over the surface of the sun
小題3:The article suggests that _______________.
A．how space formed
B．our earth exists before the sun
C．no one knows where the earth comes from
D．our earth used to be a high mountain in the sun
小題4:The expression “the cause of the disturbance” refers to ________.
A．the large tidal waveB．the powerful tidal pull
C．the star coming near the sunD．one of sun’s planets
小題5: In the article, the writer mainly wants to tell us ______________.
A．where the planets in the universe came from
B．how the high mountains were formed on the sun
C．that the universe is so large that we cannot imagine it
D．why the tides over the surface of the sun were so powerful

If we want to deal with the association(社交) between boys and girls properly, here are some “dos and don’ts” for you to follow.
Keep a normal and healthy state of mind. Our schools and classes are made up of boys and girls. It is very nature for the boys and girls to make friends with each other. We should make as many friends as possible. We should keep touch with the other sex(性別) in public instead of in secret.
Don’t be too nervous or too shy. If you are a shy person, you can also find a way out. First of all, you can make friends with the students who have the same interest and hobby as you. As both of you have much in common, you may have much to talk about. If you keep doing like that, little by little, you will gladly find you are also as free to express yourself as others.
Don’t fall into the ditch of early love. The boys and girls at a adolescence (青春期) are rich in feeling. They are easy to regard the friendship as a sign of love and fall in love with each other at an early age. In my opinion, early love is a green apple that can’t be eaten. An apple won’t taste sweet until it is full ripe. Boys and girls at middle school are too young to carry the heavy duty of love. Do keep out of early love.
小題1:We should keep touch with the other sex in following ways EXCEPT _______.
A．with a good state of mindB．in real friendship
C．in publicD．in secret
小題2:What does the underlined word “ditch” mean?
A．波浪B．泥潭C．圈套D．迷惑
小題3:The main idea of the passage is to _______.
A．tell students to keep away from early love
B．tell students how to make friends
C．teach boys how to talk with girls
D．give some advice on how to associate between boys and girls

You may have known several kinds of police, traffic police, and street police. But have you ever heard of energy-saving (節(jié)能) policemen?
A group of 22 of these new policemen went to work last week in Beijing. They go around the city to see the use of energy in hotels, office buildings, shopping centers and other public places. One of their aims is to make sure that these places have set their air conditioning (空調(diào)) no cooler than 26 ℃.

"If everyone sets their air conditioning at 26 ℃, Beijing will save 400 million kilowatt-hours of electricity in one summer. That's one-third of all the usage of the city in the season," said a TV advertisement.
Other Chinese cities, like Wuhan in Hubei Province and Yangzhou in Jiangsu Province, are going to follow Beijing's steps in setting up a similar police team.
From 1986 to 2005, China met 20 warm winters. It means that Chinese cities have to spend billions of yuan solving the environmental problems every year.
To introduce a green life to the public, Beijing also held a show on energy-saving technology and productions last week. It attracted lots of attention.
"We want to tell people that there are certain ways to protect the environment. Each of us can find right ways to do it in our daily lives," said Liu Qianguang, an environmental engineer in Beijing.
小題1:The job of the energy-saving policemen is ___________.
A．to set the air conditioning cooler
B．to check the use of energy in public places
C．to stop people using air conditioning
D．to make sure that more energy will be produced
小題2:Beijing will use ___________ million kilowatt-hours electricity in one summer.
A．1200 B．800 C．400D．133
小題3:Which of the following years' winters were all warm in China?
A．1984-1988.B．1999-2003. C．2002-2006. D．2005-2009.
小題4:According to Liu Qianguang, ___________.
A．there are few ways to protect the environment
B．it's difficult to find good ways to save energy
C．it's easy for one to do something good for the environment
D．it's not easy for one to do something good for the environment
