3 . In America, every student likes popular music. Students carry small radios and listen to music before class, after class and at lunch.
Adult（成年人）drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work. They also listen about sports, the weather and the life of American people. Most of the radio programs are music.
Pop or popular music singers make much money. They make a CD or tape which radio stations use in many places. Once the popular singer is known all over the country, young people buy his or her tapes. Some of the money from these tapes goes to the singer. Wherever the singer goes, all the young people want to meet him or her.
There are other kinds of music that are important to Americans. One is called folk（民间）music. It tells stories about the common life of Americans. Another is called country music.

4 . What do we do when we go camping? First, we work out a plan. We take food, clothing, a knife, and things for cooking and catting. We take things to keep us away from insects and the sun.
Then we put everything into the car and we drive to the woods（树林）. We look for a place for campers（露营者）and we look for a good place for our tent. The place should have a lot of moving air. This will keep some insects away. High land with water on both sides of it is good. Then we put up our tent. We put everything into the tent, and we are ready for fun. We can swim in the lake, walk in the woods, climb a mountain, row（划）a boat, or go fishing.
In the evening we come back to the tent, we build a big fire because it can keep the insects away.

6 . Millions of years ago, dinosaurs (恐龙) controlled the earth. And there were different types of dinosaurs on the earth. Some of them were no bigger than chickens, but all of them had very small brains (大脑). Later on, there weren’t any dinosaurs. What happened to them?
In the days of dinosaurs, the whole earth was warm and wet. There were many green forests. But the earth changed slowly all the time. When parts of the earth became cold and dry, the forests there died. Then dinosaurs could not find enough food to eat. This must be one reason why dinosaurs died out.
What’s another reason? We can make a guess. New kinds of animals came to the earth. Some had big brains and were fast and strong. They could kill dinosaurs. Some ate dinosaur eggs, too.
There may be other reasons that we do not know about. Each year, people will find some dinosaur footprints (脚印) and bones. Scientists are trying to tell us more about dinosaurs.

Practicing yoga (瑜伽) is a helpful, popular way to keep fit. It has many followers around the world. There are many kinds of yoga. You may have heard of “hot yoga” before. Now, in India, a new kind of yoga, water yoga, is becoming more and more popular among the local people.
In the city of Agra, people practice yoga in water. It is more difficult to practice yoga in water than on land. But practicing yoga in water can be good for your flexibility (灵活性).
Harish Chaturvedi, a writer, teaches people water yoga for free—even the poor people can learn from him. “Water yoga can become more popular than other kinds of yoga, because the body does not get tired so quickly,” he said. “Everybody can learn to swim, but if they learn yoga at the same time, they will never feel tired.”
“The level of Oxygen (氧气) is very high in water, and you will not have any breathing problem.” he added.
Harish believes that water yoga really helps people to keep away from illness. He mainly trains children. He has classes at the swimming pool of a local sports room regularly. Many children are interested in it and come to learn from him.
“Harish is very good at performing yoga in water.” said Sudhir Narayan, a water yoga student. “He is teaching children free of cost and that is a very good thing.”

8 . Baseball is one of the favourite sports in the USA. Children play baseball in sports field or parks.
At summer picnics, there is often an informal baseball game. Boys and girls, young and old take turns to bat (击球). Each team has 9 players.
The baseball season goes from April to September. During this time, baseball matches are shown on TV and members of the important baseball teams become America’s heroes. At the end of season the two top teams play against each other. Many baseball fans go along to watch the game. Million of others listen to the radio and watch television. After the game, people like to talk about the result of the matches and the players, especially their favourite players.
American football is perhaps the most popular sport in the USA. The football season begins when the baseball season ends. More people are interested in football than baseball when there is an important game. Thousands of people sit beside the radio or in front of the television set to hear the result. If their favourite players behave very well, they will be very excited about the score. If they lose the matches, fans will lose confidence. Maybe they will go to another club to cheer others on.

Very few people enjoy exams. I don’t, either. When I have an exam, I am always too worried about it. So I’m not surprised when I find that my students worry about them. As a student, it’s impossible for you not to worry about exams at all, but at least you should try not to worry too much. Good students never study hard only a few days before an exam. They study hard all the time. Remember that it is impossible to learn everything at the last minute.
Then what should you do? If you start to study for each exam early, you will be able to say “How easy the exam is!” Then you will be more confident about yourself.
▲ Take a short rest during your study. If you are too tired, you can’t remember things well. Then you should have a short rest for about ten minutes after you study for an hour. Then you can remember things much faster.
▲ You’d better not stay up late before an exam. You may feel tired or want to sleep the next day if you stay up too late before an exam.
▲ Try to do something else to relax yourself. You can listen to music or have a walk with your good friends. They are both good ways to help you feel less worried or nervous before an exam.
