| Waiter / Waitress A job as a waiter or waitress is a good choice for 16-year-olds. Not only can one earn $9-$12 an hour, but they can also get the tips (小费). Most people that visit a restaurant don’t just have good food. They come here to relax and have a good time. Besides serving food quickly, a young waiter who talks to them politely with a smile on his face will make the diners enjoy their time at the restaurant. |
| Work in a library If one is fond of books, working in a library is another suitable choice. Besides the pay is good, it offers a lot of free time when students can actually sit down and finish their homework. So on returning home, they would have time to hang around with friends or just relax. So working in a library is an excellent part-time job for teens, especially for school students. |

5 . In winter, we often use large amounts of salt to remove dangerous ice from roads and walkways. But when the spring arrives, all that salt can really damage plants along the way. Salt is the chemical sodium chloride.
Salt pulls water from living cells, like plant roots and the healthy ground soil around them. So, spring growth may show up lighter in color than normal, or, in the worst cases, plants may simply die. Rain can wash away much of the salt, permitting some older plants to live. But overusing it unavoidably brings great damage to plants.
There are, of course, other things that can be used in place of sodium chloride. One is the chemical calcium chloride, which does less damage to plants. Calcium chloride can quickly change the melting (融化) point of ice and absorb water, making a much quicker acting agent. It also works when the temperature is below negative 17 degrees Celsius. Salt only keeps its effectiveness at temperatures above negative 12 degrees Celsius. Yet, it’s more expensive and can do more damage to cars.
Calcium magnesium acetate, also called CMA, is a more popular alternative than salt and calcium chloride. It is made by combining limestone, a type of rock, and vinegar. It breaks down naturally so it does not damage plants or soil. It stays on roads and does not hurt cars. CMA does have problems, however. It is most effective at around negative 9 degrees Celsius. And it is better at stopping ice from forming rather than removing it.
Some materials-such as sand or very small pieces of wood-can also work against ice. They might be very messy, but in the interests of plants grown in the ground near a road or where a car is parked, all of them could be a better choice than salt.
1. What advantage does calcium chloride have over salt?| A．It pulls little water from plants. | B．It can melt ice in a shorter time. |
| C．It has no bad effect on plants. | D．It works at higher temperature. |
| A．Break it into small pieces. |
| B．Use it before water or snow freezes. |
| C．Combine it with rock and vinegar. |
| D．Remove it from roads after use. |
| A．By using data. |
| B．By raising doubt. |
| C．By drawing comparisons. |
| D．By explaining principles. |
| A．Salt Does More Harm than Good |
| B．Vary Ways to Clear Ice with Conditions |

When I was little, I used to walk with my grandmother on a quiet and small road across which she and my grandfather lived. My grandfather rarely joined us. He was a seemingly strict man, an ex-soldier who. usually held back his emotions, especially his affection(喜爱). He wasn’t a man who hugged me often when I was a child, but I had never doubted his love for me.
Grandma and I would walk, hand in hand, moving at an equal pace. The sun would be shining; the birds would be singing. We would chat about this and that, or just walk in silence, enjoying the outdoors and each other’s company. Yet, for me, these times were not just a chance to get some exercise or be with my grandmother, though both were important. These walks were treasure hunts.
More often than not, at the road’s edge, there would be money. Not lots of it — I cent here, 5 cents there. Sometimes, on really lucky days, I’d find 10 cents or even 25. I’d pick up these coins, proudly show Grandma and joyfully put them into my pockets. Some days, I wouldn’t find anything. “Maybe next time, ” my grandmother would say. Other days, I’d come back from our walk with more than twenty-five cents to put in my piggy bank, or to buy candies — a treat for a six-year-old child.
Looking back now, it wasn’t even the money that was such a big deal; it was the joy of discovery. It was the hope of finding something small left or forgotten along the side of the road. It made me feel so lucky and so special. Yet, it wasn’t until years later, when I was in my late twenties, that the simple memory meant much more to me than simply the happiness of a child. It was my mother who told me the secret which brought a whole new meaning to my experience.
