3 . Elephants have very strong legs. Their legs are like trees. They usually walk slowly because they are so big, but they walk very quietly.
Wild elephants living in the jungle(丛林) usually stay together in big families. Usually one old elephant leads them. The others follow their leader. They usually move about at night, looking for food. In the hot daytime, they go to sleep in the cool shade of the trees. Elephants are kind animals. When one of them is hurt and cannot pull itself to its feet, the other elephants lift it up and help it to walk.
Some people say that elephants never forget. They remember people who are kind or bad to them.

The world has many beautiful sounds. We can hear the songs of birds and the laughter of people. We can listen to cool music and news reports. And it’s all because of our ears! They bring us a world of sounds.
But some people can’t hear any sound at all. Some are born ①deaf. Others can hear well in their childhood, but too many loud sounds hurt their ears later on.
Many people in China can’t hear ordinary (普通的) sounds clearly. A large number of them are children. Most of them are born with good hearing. But 6 children out of every 1,000 have hearing problems when they are born. And if a child has hearing problems, usually he or she will also have learning problems at school.
A lot of things can cause hearing problems. For example, too much earwax (耳垢) is not good for our hearing. And noise louder than 85 decibels (分贝) can hurt our ears and make us lose our hearing for a short time or even forever.
Hearing is important for all of us. ②So we should do our best to give our ears special care. Don’t forget to do the following:
● Try to stay away from places with too much noise. If you have to go, wear earplugs (耳塞). A pair of good earplugs can cut the noise by 30 decibels.
● When swimming, remember to put earplugs into your ears to stop water from getting in.
● Never put anything sharp (尖锐的) into your ears. If you think you have too much earwax, ask your mum or dad to help you clean it out.
If you keep these things in mind, you won’t have trouble in hearing sounds.

5 . Traveling by train may not be the quickest way to reach some places, but for thousands of tourists it is still one of the most popular ways to get to places of sightseeing (观光) around Taiwan. People can take one of the two main railways to reach almost all of the beautiful towns near the sea.
Before traveling in Taiwan by train, tourists should first think about how far the railway station is, and whether the train is comfortable for the trip. The fastest and most comfortable train is Ziqiang. Ziqiang can travel at the speed of 120 km an hour, while the usual speed is around 94 km an hour. All the cars in the train have air conditioners(空调), and the large windows make it easy for passengers to enjoy some beautiful views as the train runs past. A slow and less comfortable train is Fuxing. The tickets are cheaper, because the train stops at all the stops.

6 . The final exam comes with July. When exam ends, the summer vacation begins. Boys and girls have about two months to relax. The summer vacation is the best time of the year for most children. The weather is usually fine. They can swim, go to summer camp or visit other places with their parents.
The best place for a summer vacation is the seaside(海边). Some children are lucky enough to live near the sea, but for the others, a week or two at one of the big seaside towns is something they will talk about for the whole of the following year.
In England, most of the people can take their children to the seaside. If a factory worker or a bus driver, a street cleaner or a waiter wants to take his wife and children to Southend or Margate, Blackpool or Clacton, he is usually quite able to do so.

8 . Carpooling (拼车) for School
In the UK, students often carpool. When your school doesn't have a school bus and your home is not near, you can carpool. Usually three or four students go to school in the same car. Their parents take turns (轮流) in taking the students in their cars.
The students have to be on time, because nobody wants to be late for class. If you are in the car and wait (等) for a friend for a long time, you will be unhappy. Your friends will feel the same way when you let them wait. Students learn a great lesson—to be on time.

9 . I and many other people in Britain love charity (慈善) shops because we can find them on every street. The charity shops sell all kinds of things and they are very cheap.
The first charity shop was opened by Oxfam in 1947. Now there are over 7,000 charity shops in the UK. My favorite charity shop in my hometown is the Red Cross Shop. There I always find children's books, all 10 to 20 pence each. They are really cheap.
Most of the shop workers in charity shops are volunteers, but each shop has a manager and he can get some money. Every morning you see bags of things outside the shops. Some people bring and put them there without waiting for thanks. In fact, over 90% of the things in charity shops are from kind people.
All the money the shops get goes to charity work. Charity shops raise more than 110 million pounds every year. The money is for sick and poor children, homeless and disabled people, and many others. In a charity shop you can get cheap but nice things. You might even feel special while shopping.
If possible, let's do something for charity together.
任务(一)：根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
1. When was the first charity shop opened? And by whom was it opened?
2. Who can get some money in the charity shops?
3. How much do charity shops raise every year?

10 . Hobbies are very important to a person. Without having any hobby, life won't be as colorful as it should be.
I have a number of hobbies, such as collecting stamps, playing musical instruments (乐器), reading, and doing sport activities. When I am free, I will spend time on my hobbies. When I am in a blue mood (情绪低落), I will also do my hobbies to cheer myself up.
Hobbies can help us improve our moods. Many hobbies require you to put your heart in them. For example, when you play a musical instrument, you have to practice over and over in order to perform good music. After a period if you still enjoy it, gradually it will become a hobby of yours. But remember, a hobby is like gold under the ground; no hobby will come to you unless you dig it out yourself. If you can treat study as one of your hobbies, learning will be more enjoyable. I hope all of you can find your own hobbies and also have fun from them.
1. Hobbies sometimes can make a person ________.| A．in a blue mood | B．perform good | C．cheer himself / herself up |
| A．Practice over and over. | B．Treat our study as a hobby. | C．Improve our moods. |
| A．Hobbies are important for a person. |
| B．Playing musical instruments is a kind of hobby. |
| C．If we often do but never enjoy doing something, it will be our hobby someday. |
