1 . What’s the best thing to eat on a hot summer day? Quite a few people will say it is ice cream. Yes, eating ice cream with some fruit is a great way to cool down. But think before you eat. If your body is hot from playing sports, it’s not the best time to eat ice cream.
If you eat ice cream when your body is hot, it may give your stomach some problems, and you may have a stomachache. You can eat some ice cream after you cool down or have some tea. Just try not to eat much at a time!
People shouldn’t eat or drink anything cold just after dinner. If you want to stay cool and healthy, oranges, bananas and pears can help.
In summer, the weather is hot and the food goes bad easily. You’d better eat clean and fresh food. When you want to eat a cold dish, put some vinegar (醋) in it . If you can’t finish your food and want to eat it again next day, you should cook it and then you can eat it.

2 . Have you ever heard of e-waste, which can be produced every day? How do you deal with your computers, MP4 players and mobile phones when they’re broken or you want a new one?
Most people just throw them away. With the development of electric industry, e-waste pollution has become a serious problem. According to the United Nations, people around the world produced 41.8 million tons of e-waste and only recycled 6.6 million tons. The US was the biggest waster, producing 7.1 million tons. China came second, with 6 million tons.
It’s important to pay attention to e-waste. It can either be valuable or harmful. The value of the metals, like gold and silver in the waste around the world, is amazing. And the metals can be reused. But if people throw them away, the toxic Chemicals(有毒化学物质)can get into the earth or air, effecting the environment and people's health.
Apple, for example, now recycle people’s used products in China when they are buying new ones. The company will test and repair the used ones and sell them at lower prices. To help reduce(减少)e-waste, we can also take computers and phones to see if companies offer recycling programs.

4 . People use languages to communicate. Any language has its ways to express people’s minds. One of the ways in common is the use of idioms. An idiom is a group of words. It has a special meaning that is different from the usual meaning. For example, under the weather is an idiom meaning ill. So when people say “I’m under the weather," they are saying that they’re not feeling well. Another example, in all weathers means in all kinds of weather. So, “There are homeless people sleeping on the streets in all weathers" tells us that homeless people sleep on the streets no matter whether it is cold or hot.
Different languages may have different ways to make idioms. For people who are learning a foreign language, idioms could cause misunderstandings and bring them endless headaches. On the other hand, if things are done right, idioms can also be a fun way of looking into a new culture and understanding how the people think and talk.
Metaphor (比喻) is often used in idioms. Let’s read the following two examples:
● It makes my blood boil (煮沸) when people litter.
● The night was dark and quiet; my blood ran cold when I heard a strange noise outside at dark night.
In neither situation above, our blood can reach the point so high or so low in temperature. Yet, with the situations the two sentences created, it is not difficult to work out the unhappy feelings of really angry in the first example and very afraid in the second.
Of course, not all idioms are this easy to understand. When we come to idioms of a foreign language, a good dictionary of idioms is always suggested.
1. This passage tells us something about __________ in the English language.A.grammar | B.writing | C.reading | D.idioms |
A.I’m under the weather | B.I’m there in all weathers |
C.You’ve made my blood boil | D.My blood runs cold |
A.We should look it up in a good idiom dictionary. |
B.We should try to express our minds with it. |
C.We should find an interesting way to learn it. |
D.We should create situations to guess its meaning. |

Follow Your Heart by Australian writer Andrew Matthews tells us that making our dreams come true is life’s biggest challenge(挑战).
“You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects or you can't win in the end. The ideas stop you from getting your dream,” the book says.
In fact, everyone can make his dream come true. The first important thing you must do is to remember what your dream is.
Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want, step by step(一步一步地) and your dream will come true faster. A big dream is many small dreams.

But whose hand? The class were very interested in the strange picture. “I think it must be the hand of God that bring us food,” said one child, “A farmer,” said another, “Because he grows beautiful flowers.” Finally when the others were at work, the teacher went over Douglas’ desk and asked whose hand it was. “It’s your hand, Teacher,” she said quietly and shyly.
She remembered that she had often taken Douglas, a dirty lonely child, by the hand while having a class break. She often did that with the children. But it meant so much to Douglas. Perhaps this is everyone’s thanksgiving, not for the material things we get, but for the chance, in whatever small way, to give to others.
