What would you do? Would you hand the wallet over to your headmaster as soon as you arrive at school? Thats just what Kemoy Gourzang did. “I have lost money before,” Kemoy, a 10-year-old boy, told the reporter, “I knew if I had lost my wallet, I would have wanted it back.” Joy-Ann Morgan, the headmaster, immediately called the owner of the wallet, using the ID inside. The man did not realize he had lost it. Morgan said he was happy to learn that an honest kid had found it. “This is what we want to teach our students,” Morgan explained. Kemoy has learned that doing the right thing pays off. His school district gave him a “GoodCitizen”prize in honor of what he did. A person who has good citizenship is responsible and does the right thing. Kemoy has also received gifts from complete strangers, money, gift cards, and even a pair of sports shoes. As for the owner of the wallet, he thanked Kemoy when he went to the school to get his wallet back. He also gave the student $100 as a reward. “He told me I was the most honest person he had ever met,” Kemoy said, “It makes me really happy.” 50. How much money was there in the wallet?A. $10.B. $20. C. $50.D. $500.51. What did Kemoy do after he picked the wallet up?A. He handed it over to the headmaster.B. He told his friends about the money.C. He called the owner of the wallet.D. He asked a reporter for help.52. Kemoy received _ for what he did from the school district.A. a pair of sports shoesB. a gift cardC. a “GoodCitizen”prizeD. a $100 billCWhat do three hearts, eight arms, and one huge brain add up to? An octopusa sea animal that can do amazing things. Octopuses are very smart. They can learn new things just like humans. Theyve even learned a few skills to get themselves out of dangerous situations. Octopuses dont have teeth or sharp (锋利的) claws to protect themselves. Instead, they use more clever ways to fool their enemies. Octopuses like to hide themselves in the sand on the bottom of the ocean floor. It can change the color of its skin to match the sand. And this color change happens in less than a minute. Some octopuses like to stay near rocks in shallow water. They can make themselves fit into small spaces between the rocks to get out of reach of their enemies. Another way an octopus can hide is by shooting ink. The ink forms a cloud that hides the octopus. By the time the ink clears, the octopus has swum away or hidden. If an octopus is in danger, it can make itself look like a sea snake. It will hide itself in the sand, leaving two arms outside. It will change the color of those arms to match a sea snake. But what if theres no time to hide? It can break off one of its arms. The arm will then change colors and keep moving around in the water to take the enemys attention away while the octopus swims away to safety. Dont worry though. The arm will grow back. A kind of octopus is called the blue-ringed octopus. It is tiny. But the enemies know to stay away because it is very poisonous and can kill animals much larger than itself, including humans. So the next time you see an octopus in the aquarium, remember that inside that oversized head is a very large brain, making it a clever addition to the sea. 53. The octopus breaks off one of its arms to _.A. fit into small spacesB. swim much fasterC. get time to run awayD. shoot more ink 54. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. The octopus has sharp teeth to catch food.B. The octopus uses its arms to kill the enemy.C. The octopus changes color to fool the sea snake.D. The octopus can make itself look like another animal.55. The passage is mainly about _.A. how careful the octopus is to hide itselfB. how clever the octopus is to protect itselfC. how happy the octopus is to live in water D. how brave the octopus is to face dangersDYou eat to stay fit and keep your body working, right? Then reading is food for your mind and soul. Reading informs you of whats happening around. Reading encourages you to think and imagine, think out of the box and imagine the impossible. In the past, people just read books, only books. Today, we have books online, which makes reading easy. The web, our new storehouse of information is just a click away. But this in no way has stolen the magic of reading books, the sound of their pages flutter (翻页) and their smell You can lie in bed with a book, but with a computer you possibly cant. No matter how you read, reading is important.Remember those bedtime stories? We read fun facts about animals, plants and the universe. We ask “whys” and “hows”. In books, we find their answers. Children who are introduced to reading at an early age are seen to have a better understanding of phonics (语音学). They master language skills easily, have a richer vocabulary and have greater reading abilities. Children, who grow up reading good books, mostly stand out. The way they think and act is very different from those who have never been introduced to reading. Reading not only adds to their knowledge but also shapes their personalities. Reading has a great influence on ones life. Teenagers are easily influenced by whatever they read. If inspirational stories and life experiences are read in ones teens, they can change a person for the better. They stay with him and keep encouraging him to achieve his goals and choose the right against the wrong.The more you read, the more creative and imaginative you will become. Reading develops vocabulary, improves language skills and sharpens your problem-solving abilities. It leads to a better understanding of self. Reading gives you knowledge, it makes you more confident. The more you read about others lives and experiences, a better decision-maker you will become. Reading about the importance of reading should lead you to read more, and more, and more. So choose a book you like and dont stop reading until you reach the end. And even after that read as much as you can. 56. Which of the following is true?A. Children should start reading at a young age.B. Parents should tell their children stories every day.C.

The passengers were three animals and the balloon stayed in the air for about 15 minutes before hitting back to the ground. The first manned（载人的）flight was about 2 months later, with a balloon made by 2 French brothers. The balloon flew for a period of 20 minutes. Sailing through the sky in the balloon, high above buildings and trees, you cant feel or hear the wind because youre traveling in the same direction and at the same speed as it is.A hot air balloon has three main parts: the balloon, called an envelope; a basket, where passengers ride; and a burner system, which supplies the hot air. Most balloon envelopes are made of strong, lightweight nylon（尼龙）. They are different in size and shape, but they have to be really, really big to lift even one person. Most weigh more than an adult man.The basket is usually made of wicker（柳条）, which is strong but not too hard. It needs to bend a bit for a soft landing, just like a good jumper bends her legs instead of keeping them straight when she lands.The hot air balloon works on the theory that hot air rises faster than cooler air. When the burner system is turned on, it makes a noisy sound, but once the balloon is flying, the burner can be turned off. The air in the envelope will then cool, and the balloon will slowly go down unless the pilot starts the burner system again.To control a hot air balloon, a pilot adds hot air to it to go up or lets the air out to go down until he finds a wind blowing in the direction he wants to fly. But no matter which way the wind blows, the passengers have an amazing birds-eye view of the world.64. Who were the passengers on the first hot air balloon?65. Did the first manned balloon fly for 20 minutes?66. Why is the basket usually made of wicker?67. How does a pilot control the hot air balloon?68.
