Every time you go shopping, the vegetables and fruit look so tempting that you wish you could buy all of them. Some people are lucky and can grow the fruit and vegetables in the gardens that they have. While getting fresh vegetables, they can also achieve great cost cutting.
Mushrooms are expensive and can also go bad very quickly. Mushrooms can also be grown easily in a dark environment. In fact it’s better than growing other vegetables since you really don’t need an outdoor space. A special type of soil that is good for growing mushrooms is easily available.
Actually mushrooms aren’t even vegetables; they are fungi(菌类) and for this reason, you don’t even require sunlight to grow them. Well how does one go about growing mushrooms? You could always Google “growing mushrooms” and you will find a number of mushroom growing kits(工具) available online that area effective and not very expensive either.
Mushrooms can be added to any dish that you cook. Simply use them in pizzas, salads and anything that you pretty much fancy. Grow mushrooms in your own house and use them whenever you want. Fresh mushrooms are tastier than the ones that are stored in your refrigerator.
If you have had a really good crop of mushrooms, then you can even store them. Ideally you should use the white variety of the mushrooms. Simply pick them, slice them and put them on a cookie sheet in a freezer. When they are frozen, you can use them when you want to. Remember to thaw(解冻)them before you use them, and they will give a really great taste to the dish that you are making.

Today's world is not an easy adjustment for young adults. Key skill set for success is persistence (毅力), a characteristic that researchers say is heavily influenced by fathers. Researchers from Brigham Young University discovered that fathers are in a unique position to help their adolescent children learn persistence.
BYU professors Laura Padilla-Walker and Randal Day arrived at these findings after following 325 American families over several years. And over time,the persistence gained through fathers led to higher achievement in school.
"There are relatively few studies that stress the unique role of fathers,"Padilla-Walker said. "This research also helps to prove that characteristics such as persistence-which can be taught-are key to a child's life success.”
Researchers determined that dads need to practice an "authoritative" parenting style. Authoritative parenting is not authoritarian:rigid,demanding or controlling. Rather,an authoritative parenting style includes some of the following characteristics:children feel warmth and love from their father;responsibility and the reasons behind rules are stressed children are given an appropriate level of autonomy(自主权).
In the study,about 52 percent of the dads exhibited above-average levels of authoritative parenting. A key finding is that over time,children raised by an authoritative father were significantly more likely to develop persistence,which leads to better outcomes in school.
This particular study examined 11 to 14-year-olds living in two-parent homes. Yet the researchers suggest that single parents still may play a role in teaching the benefits of persistence,which is an avenue of future research.
4. What is special about the BYU professors' study?A.It centered on fathers' role in parenting. |
B.It was based on a number of large families. |
C.It analyzed different kinds of parenting styles. |
D.It aimed to improve kids' achievement in school. |
A.Ignore their demands. | B.Make decisions for them. |
C.Control their behaviors. | D.Explain the rules to them. |
A.Single parents. |
B.Children aged from 11 to 14. |
C.Authoritarian fathers. |
D.Mothers in two-parent homes. |
A.Three Characteristics of Authoritative Fathers. |
B.Key Skills for Young Adults to Succeed in Future. |
C.Children Tend to Learn Determination from Father. |
D.Family Relationship Influences School Performance. |
During most time of the 1930s, the Great Plains region was destroyed by drought and high winds. Howling across the Great Plains, these winds swept up the soil of the over-farmed land and created serious sandstorms of dust. These black sandstorms were so thick that daylight seemed more like dusk. Year after year having passed without rain, the winds continued to blow, and the dust swirled endlessly. During this terrible period, the region came to be called the Dust Bowl.
But the causes of the sandstorms weren’t just drought and winds. In a strange way, patriotism(爱国主义)was partly to blame. During World War Ⅰ, the U. S. government encouraged farmers to support the war by planting more wheat. As farmers increased their production, their own profits increased. Following the invention of the farm tractor, farmers plowed up thousands of acres of grassland and planted wheat. Wheat production rose fast, but nature soon turned success into disaster.
When the drought began, farmers didn’t realize that, by plowing up the grassland, they had destroyed the land’s natural protection against soil erosion(侵蚀). As the drought continued, one powerful windstorm after another blew across the Great Plains. Crops dried up and were blown away.
Nothing grew for years. Eventually most of the rich topsoil(表土层)was blown away. As years passed, all the moisture(水汽)in the ground disappeared, leaving even the deep roots of trees in dust.
The Great Plains became a deserted place, as thousands of people fled to California to escape the dust and look for work. Most found only low-paying agricultural jobs. But there were those who refused to leave. For these farmers, a program encouraged them to make use of new ways that would protect the precious topsoil from eroding. But bringing the soil back to life took time, and the farmers still needed rain. Rain meant more to the farmers than it ever had before. It meant a future.
8. Which of the following is the main cause of turning the Great Plains into the Dust Bowl?A.The land was over-farmed. |
B.The high winds blew away good soil. |
C.There was lasting drought for years. |
D.There were many thick black sandstorms. |
A.Show up the grassland for farming. |
B.Open up the grassland for farming. |
C.Give up the grassland for farming. |
D.Give out the grassland to the farmers. |
A.the time order | B.giving examples |
C.exploring causes and effects | D.explaining the process |
A.Measures to be taken. | B.Future of the destroyed region. |
C.Results of the disaster. | D.People’s reaction to the disaster. |

What’s the easiest way to stay warm in the super cold?
During Christmas, Dennis and I went to Finland. We brought back some tips for keeping warm in a cold temperature.
1. Three layers (层) work wonders.
Start with the base layer, which sits right on your skin: choose something that can absorb sweat.
2.
You lose heat from every millimeter of uncovered skin, which was the biggest lesson I learned on this trip. My whole body was well covered. But I missed one spot: my face. So it often felt like the wind was going to blow my nose off.
3. Exercise, don’t just stand still.
When it’s cold, exercising may be the last thing you feel like doing, but be smart.
4. If you have a heater …
You may want to turn it all the way up, but it’s best to keep it at between 18 and 20 degrees.
A.Grow a crazy beard |
B.The key is what your layer is |
C.Cover every bit of your skin |
D.That will keep you comfortable |
E.Take a walk, faster than your normal speed |
F.Don’t forget to keep your hands and feet warm, too |

Last Sunday afternoon, Sandra and I were eager to meet up with a man on Detroit’s east side to help him get ready for a job interview this week. But on the way, we spotted a dog lying near the road next to his owner. We thought he’d been hit by a car. My friend, Sandra Abrahamian and I, had assisted animal rescue groups before and we thought there might be something we could do, so we quickly pulled over to help.
His owner, a woman told us the dog’s name is Bosco, and she was walking him over a mile in the heat to her new home. She said Bosco was an outside dog and no one would give him a ride to her new place. That’s when she and a friend decided to walk the entire way. He was going from a life on a chain in one backyard to another. She said Bosco was having trouble breathing along the way, but they thought he could make it. But just a block away from their destination, Bosco fell down. We could tell he was suffering from heatstroke(中暑). She told us he had thrown up and could no longer stand. Bosco was out of breath quickly, his drool(口水) was also thick. Bosco’s owner said she wanted to give him away because she didn’t have time for him. She said he would never be allowed into her new “home” because her children have allergies(过敏症) and she worried he would dirty the carpet.
I made a call to Kristina Rinaldi of Detroit Dog Rescue to ask if they could help Bosco because it was clear that he was going to die without emergency care. To our happiness, Rinaldi said they could help. At once she told the people at Oakland Veterinary Referral Services that a dog which needed critical care was being rushed in and they must be ready to try their best to save him.
Paragraph 1:
Sandra drove while I stayed in the back seat trying to comfort Bosco.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
So Bosco is now being called Roscoe, whose critical care and recovery were estimated to be several thousand dollars.
