★To say a big thank you to someone,have a party for that person.
As you can see,there are many ways to say thank you.Think of some ways of your own.You will feel good trying one of the ideas,and the person being thanked will feel good too.It's a win-win situation!(形勢)

Liu Mingxiao, 13, is a pretty and smart girl. She comes top in her class. But many students try to stay away from her because her mother has AIDS(艾滋病). Liu’s father has died of AIDS. But Liu didn’t get it.

AIDS means fear(懼怕)for most people. “Nobody wants to play games with me. They call me bad names behind my back. Even a teacher who used to like me turns her back on me now. It makes me feel sad.” said Liu.

Liu’s mother didn’t know what happened to her daughter until one day Liu came back home with her nose bleeding(流血的),“ She fought with a boy who said something bad about her father.” said Liu’s mother. “My heart really hurts. My daughter did nothing wrong!”

For many of these children, the biggest problem they now face is how other people look at them. Many of them have to drop out of school(輟學(xué))because they can no longer stand others’ indifference(冷漠).

“People are afraid of AIDS because they know little about it,” said Wang Chongrun, head of a group to help children living with AIDS. Wang went to the villages and gave lessons about AIDS to the people there.

“Many of these children are just as healthy as others,” Wang said.

“Even if they have AIDS, it’s still safe to eat and play with them. They need our love and understanding. A friendly smile means a lot to them!”

1. Nobody wants to play games with Liu Mingxiao because she comes top in her class .

Five Ways to Rock the Rest of the Semester

With exams around the corner, how can you possibly pack in one more English word, let alone the causes of the Cold War? Don’t worry. Here is our handy guide to help you

Power Down

So you stayed up too late last night reading Mockingjay for the fifth time. Oops! When you’re that fired, your schoolwork suffers. Instead of studying inefficiently while you are sleepy, allow yourself a 15-minute afterschool power nap. Studies show that even a few minutes of shut-eye can improve memory and concentration.

Take Notes

Not quite grasping that super complicated concept in your chemistry class? You may need to change the way you take notes. Instead of recording every word your teacher says, try using visual hints like pictures, symbols and word bubbles. You can even switch computer fonts or pen color for the important stuff.

Dream On

Your bed’s not just for zzz’s. Experts say it may be good to study in bed, too. Why? We’re able to absorb more right before bed because we’re less distracted and the new information stays in our minds as we sleep. So, slide into bed with a textbook or notes, read for 15 minutes, and then turn off the lights for some sweet and smart dreams.

Brain Food

You’re in the middle of a biology exam when your mind goes blank. You knew this stuff cold at home, but now you can’t tell a ribosome from a chloroplast. What’s going on? Your brain’s in need of some refueling. Have some snacks like apple slices or cheese before class, and have plenty of water, too. If your teacher doesn’t mind, pop in a piece of gum during an exam. Some scientists think the chewing increases the flow of oxygen to the brain.

Smart Move

Ugh! You’re taking an English test and you cannot remember the past participle of “understand”. What to do? Skip it. Test taking is all about timing, so don’t waste it on tricky questions. Move ahead and answer everything you know before returning to the ones you don’t. Chances are, once you get back to the toughies, you’ll recall the answer or at the very least, you’ll have a little more time to come up with one that works.

1.When taking notes, we can do all these except ______.

A.draw pictures

B.change the typeface

C.switch on the computer

D.colour the key points

2.According to the passage, _____.

A.it’s good to study under the covers for some time every day

B.you cannot skip the difficult questions and go on to the rest

C.you can have some snacks and drink enough water to refresh yourself in exams

D.when taking notes, you should record whatever the teacher says

3.What does the underlined phrase “knew this stuff cold” mean?

A.had no clue about it

B.were a cold fish

C.knew it was cold

D.were familiar with

5.Napoga is a 12-year-old girl in Ghana,Africa.It is hard for her family to get clean water.Every morning,she leaves home at half past five to get clean water for her family in a village far away.It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily cooking and drinking.She has no time to go to school or to play with her friends.Millions of people in the world are like Napoga.They can't get enough clean water to keep healthy.
Earth Day is April 22.But on all other days,we must also remember it.The water we use is the most important natural resource on the earth.
Water covers 70% of the earth's surface.But most of that is sea water.We can't use it for very many things.Fresh water covers only 1% of the earth's surface.You probably feel lucky that your life isn't as hard as Napoga's.But that doesn't mean you don't have to worry about water.We all face serious water problems.One of them is water pollution.All kinds of things from cars,factories,farms and homes make our rivers,lakes,and oceans dirty.Polluted water is very bad for people to drink.And dirty water is bad for fish,too.Now,34% of all kinds of fish are dying out.How do cars and factories make our water dirty?First,they pollute the air.Then,when it rains,the rain water comes down and makes our drinking water dirty.Dirty rain called acid rain(酸雨),is also bad for plants,animals and buildings.Something must be done to prevent water form being polluted.
Scientists say that in 30years,more than half of the people in the world won't have enough clean water.We have to learn how to save more water for ourselves and our children.Here is some advice for saving water:
●Turn off the water while you brush your teeth.You can save as much as 450liters(升) each month.
●Leaky taps(漏水的龍頭) waste a lot of water.Fix them right away!
●You can easily cut your 10-minute showers in half-and you'll be just as clean.
●When you wash dishes,don't let the water run.
●Only wash clothes when you have a lot to wash.If your washing machine isn't full,you're wasting water!

64.Does Napoga have time to go to school or not?She has no time to go to school.
65.When is Earth Day?April 22
66.How much does fresh water cover the earth's surface?It covers only 1% of the earth's surface.
67.What do you think of dirty water?It's very harmful./It's very bad for people,animals,plants and buildings.
68.What is the main idea of the passage?It's time to take care of the water we use./We have to learn how to save more waterfor ourselves and our children..

14.I will never forget the tenth summer of childhood with my grandfather in western Norway at the mountain farm where my mother was born.As a boy,I always thought people simply bought whatever they need.Whether Grandfather know this,I don't know.One day he said,"Come,I have something for you."
I followed him to a workroom."You should have a toy boat.You can sail it at Storvassdal."He said.Great,I thought,looking around for the boat.But there was none.
Grandfather pointed to a block of wood."The boat is in there,"he said.Then he handed me some tools and showed me how to use them properly."It'll be a fine boat,and you'll make it with your own hands,"he said,"No one can give you what you do for yourself."The words rang in my head as I worked.Finished the boat.It wasn't much to look at,but I was pound.Then I sailed it at Storvassdal.

I returned to the lake in 1968,1971,1977and 1988.Each time I had the boat and carved the year,my grandfather seemed near.
My last trip to Storvassdal was in 1991.I brought my granddaughters:Catherine,13; Claire,12.I hoped they would understand the importance of the little boat and its simple message.At Storvassdal,Claire said softly,‘Grandpa,some day I'll come back."She added,"And I'll bring my children."
