Even though she’s quite young, Drew Barrymore can be a Hollywood legend (传奇). She was born on February 22, 1975, in California. Being from a family that produced great actors, she quickly found her way into the spotlight (聚光灯).
When she was 11 months old, she made her first advertisement on TV. She made her first movie at the age of 2. Five years later, she acted Gertie in Steven Spielberg’s famous film E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial(1982).
However, it wasn’t all roses and sunshine when Barrymore was growing up. She was drinking wine by the time she was 9, smoking marijuana (大麻) at 10.
Most kid stars in Hollywood fail to become stars as adults. And most of the time, once they’re out of the spotlight, they stay out. But Drew Barrymore doesn’t.
As she was growing older, Barrymore started to realize that life is more meaningful than dangerous actions in the films. She started to build a career in 1997. She has made a series of successful films since then, including Charlie’s Angels (2000) and 50 First Dates (2004).
“In my life, there is darkness and drama, and I have yet to explore some of that in my work life. I just want to challenge (挑战) myself and prove that I can do more.”
Actually, anyone who’s not familiar with her disordered childhood might find it hard to believe she’s such a sweet person now. Like many of the characters she plays in her comedy, Drew is easy-going and laughs a lot. In 2007, she was on the cover of People magazine’s 100 Most Beautiful People issue.

Why does the sky look blue on a sunny day？Sunlight made up of red orange．yellow．green．blue，indigo （靛蓝） and violet （紫色）light．The air is made up of many tiny bits （小块）．Most colors in the light move directly through the air．The blue and indigo parts of the light bump into （碰撞） the bits of air．The light spreads out and makes the sky look blue．Light can make a glass of milk look blue，too．
Let's Do it!
☆Fill a glass partway （部分）with milk．

Every morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work．Every evening my mother looks through magazines at home．And every night，I look at the posters with photos of David Beckham and Yao Ming on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep．Can we imagine life without paper or printing？
Paper was first created about 2，000 years ago，and has been made from silk，cotton，bamboo，and since the 19th century，from wood．People learned to write words on paper to make a book．But in those days，books could only be produced one at a time by hand．As a result，they were expensive and rare．And because there weren't many books，few people learned to read．
Then printing was invented in China．When printing was developed greatly at the beginning of the 11th century，books could be produced more quickly and cheaply．After that，knowledge and ideas spread quickly．
Today information can be received online，downloaded from the Internet rather than only found in books．And information can be kept on CD﹣ROMs or machines such as iPads．
Computers are already used in classrooms，and newspapers and magazines can already be read online．So will books be replaced by computers one day？No，I don't think the Yao Ming poster on my bedroom wall will be replaced by a two﹣metre﹣high computer!
Answer the questions according to the passage．
（1）When was paper first created？
（2）Before the invention of printing，were books produced by hand or by machine？
（3）What happened after books became cheaper？
（4）According to the passage，where can information be kept？
（5）Can newspapers and magazines be read online now？
