As a volunteer teacher, I traveled a long way to a small village school in Longzhou, Guangxi. On my way there, I thought about the village, the school and the children there. However, my heart sank when I arrived there. It wasn’t what I expected. It didn’t look like a school at all! The school had only three rooms, one for Grades 1,2 and 3, and the other for Graeds 4,5 and 6. There was a third one for me.
The children welcomed me warmly on my first day. They asked me a lot of questions, and I told them stories about myself and my life in Shanghai. The next day, I gave them a text to find out their level. To my surprise, thought the test was easy, over half of the students failed it, yet they all wanted to learn new things. I knew they needed me.
I was busy preparing lessons, reading test papers every night. I enjoyed teaching these lovely and hard-working children, and I could see that they were making progress with my help. I have also learned a lot from them. I understand their lives better, and we are now good friends.
I have worked in Longzhou for a year now. I’m very happy, and the experience has been very useful to me. I love the small village and the children. In fact, I would like to continue working here.

I used to have little passion（激情，熱情）in my life. But what happened the other day changed my mind. It was then that I learned how        it is to have a passion in life.
That day I went home in Mom’s car. When Mom        at a red light, someone on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed        rags. He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, because I had seen         like him before. Those people usually looked unhappy and hopeless.
But this man was        in some way. He was not sitting down with a        expression. Instead, he had a         in his hand and was dancing happily to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious thing he had.
“Mom, why does that man have a radio        he’s homeless?” I asked.
“He       it, “ she replied.
“But why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He       something that he didn’t need.”
“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important.”
That man must care so much about        that he bought a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that        is the key to life.
Since then I am always thinking of        is truly important in life. A home, a meal, clothes – these things are        part of the life. What we often forget is that we all need a joy, a light on a         day. We all need a passion which gives a person the happiness they need to keep going.

Look at the plant in the picture. It looks beautiful, right? Can you imagine (想象) it kills?

The Venus flytrap is a kindof meat-eating plant. It grows in very few places, like wetlands near the sea in North Carolina in America.
The Venus flytrap is not a large plant. It grows to be only about a foot tall. The plant has white flowers in the spring, but it is the plant’s leaves that make it so interesting. The ends of the leaves have folding parts with stiff, tiny hairs (帶小硬刺的可折疊部分). These are the plant’s “traps (捕捉器)”.
What does the Venus flytrap eat? As you might guess, the Venus flytrap eats flies (蒼蠅). It also eats spiders, ants and crickets (蟋蟀). The Venus flytrap makes most of its food with sun, air and water, just like other plants. Living things just give it extra nutrition (額外營養(yǎng)) to grow well in wetlands.
How does this plant trap and eat living things? The Venus flytrap uses a sweet liquid (液體) to attract its food. When a fly lands on one of the plant’s open traps, hairs on the surface make the trap close. And when the trap closes, the fly is dinner!
If you want to have your own Venus flytrap at home, you have to buy the plant from a special place. You can’t take a Venus flytrap from where it grows! There are laws about taking it out of the wild.
小題1:Where does the Venus flytrap grow?
A．In the wetlands.B．In the desert. C．In the rocks.D．In the sea.
小題2:About the Venus flytrap, which of the following is true?
A．It is a large plant.
B．It only eats spiders.
C．It has white flowers.
D．It can fly in the sky.
小題3:Which is the right order of the following events in Paragraph 5?
a. The trap of the Venus flytrap closes.
b. A fly lands on one of the plant’s open traps.
c. The fly is kept in the trap as the food of the plant.
d. The Venus flytrap uses a sweet liquid to attract its food.
A．d-b-a-cB．a(chǎn)-b-c-d
C．b-d-a-cD．d-b-c-a
小題4:How can people get a Venus flytrap?
A．They can get it from where it grows.
B．They can buy it from a special place.
C．They can grow it in their gardens.
D．They can buy it in a park.
小題5:Why does the Venus flytrap kill?
A．Because it needs extra nutrition.
B．Because it hates flies.
C．Because insects are its main food.
D．Because it kills for fun.

One day my chair had a broken leg. I didn’t think there would be any difficulty getting it fixed (修理) as there were many furniture shops nearby. So I left home with the chair. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception (接待). I was wrong. The man wouldn’t even look at my chair.
The second shop was just the same, and the third and the fourth.
I entered another shop with a plan in my mind. I said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy the chair?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?” “Twenty dollars,” I said. “OK,” he said. “It’s got a broken leg,” I told him. “Yes, I noticed that. It’s nothing.”
Everything was going according to the plan. “What will you do with it?” I asked. “Oh, I’ll sell it after fixing it.” “I’ll buy it,” I said. “What? You’ve just sold it to me,” he said. “Yes, but I’ve changed my mind.” “You must be crazy,” he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped (目的達到).“I know what you want. You want me to fix the chair,” he said. “We don’t do repairs (修理), not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I’ll fix this for you.”

Jay, an American, wanted to write a book about famous churches (教堂)around the world. Firstly, Jay bought a plane ticket and took a trip to Columbus, Ohio, USA, thinking that he would start by working his way across the USA from East to West. 
On his first day he was inside a church taking photos when he noticed a golden telephone on the wall with a sign that read "$10,000 per call".
Jay was intrigued so he asked a priest (牧師) what the telephone was used for.
The priest told him that it was a direct (直接的) line to heaven（天堂） and that for $10,000 you could talk to God. Jay thanked the priest and went along his way.
Next stop was in Des Moines, and there at a very large church, he saw the same looking golden telephone with the same sign under it. A nearby nun（修女）told him that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 he could talk to God.
Jay decided to travel to Australia to see if they had a similar phone. He arrived at Western Australia, and again, in the church he entered, there was the same looking golden telephone, but this time the sign under it read "40 cents per call."
Somewhat surprised, Jay asked the priest about the sign. 'Father Brian, I travelled all over the world and I saw this same golden telephone in many churches. I know it is a direct line to Heaven, but in all of them price was $10,000 per call. Why is it so cheap here?'
