London, May 5, 2003 Emma Richards of Britain has become the first woman and the youngest person to finish the Around Alone, which is a round-the-world sailing race. The journey started in New York last September and went east around South Africa to New Zealand. It crossed the Pacific Ocean and went around South America, ending up yesterday in Rhode Island, the smallest state in America. In the end, the trip covered over 46,000 kilometres. The same sea route was taken in the past by many famous travelers who wanted to learn about the world.
Emma, a 1996 graduate (毕业生) of the University of Glasgow, finished the race at the age of twenty-eight. The race requires competitors to sail alone.

Children are amazing! They pick up language so naturally and easily. Have you ever wondered why? It’s because of the way they learn.
Children learn by simply doing what comes naturally—they listen, copy, and communicate. Let’s take a closer look at how children learn language. Perhaps we can discover a better, more “natural” way to learn English.
Listen as often as possible
When people talk to children, they often use simple words that children can understand. That’s really important to the children’s language development. In order to learn, children must be able to understand what they hear. If they don’t understand it, it’s just meaningless noise.
Listen to radio or TV programs that use English at your level. If you can’t understand every word or sentence, don’t give up. Just pay attention to what you can understand. And listen as often as you can.
Be a Copycat
Children like to copy their parents, their friends and even the TV. (the, teaches, this, how, pronounce, them, language, to). As you listen to English, repeat what you hear as much as you can.
Use English to communicate
Children don’t practice grammar rules. They use language to talk about things that interest them. This helps them learn to express themselves. They don’t worry about their small vocabulary or poor grammar. They find ways to say what they want and they do it successfully.
So look for chances to talk with people in English. If you can’t find a foreigner to talk to, talk with other English students instead. Start an English discussion group and chat about music, movies and so on. Don’t worry about making mistakes. You can learn English better by correcting mistakes.

July 16th was a bad day for Arthur Johnson. In the morning, he set off from his home in Santa Barbara, California. It was the start of his summer holidays, and he decided to visit his friends at Las Vegas. Then he hoped to go fishing at Lake Mead.
Johnson’s troubles started while he was driving happily across the Mojave Desert. His car broke down and he tried to repair it, but he failed. He telephoned a workshop to ask it to send a tow truck (拖车) to pull the car away and repair it.
When waiting for the tow truck, he fell asleep. While he was sleeping, a tow truck arrived from San Pedro (the nearest town) and pulled his car away. Later on, Johnson woke up and thought that somebody had stolen his car. Unwillingly, he started to walk back towards San Pedro, but a police car stopped him to find out why he was walking in the desert.
Johnson looked like a man wanted in California for robbery, so the police kept him at San Pedro for the night. The next day, Johnson’s friends came from California. They proved that Johnson was a harmless salesman, so they let him go.

There was a robbery at City Central Bank last yesterday afternoon. Two men entered the bank at about 4 p.m. and told the bank teller on duty to give them $ 1,000,000. The robbers were carrying guns（枪） and wearing black masks（面具） to cover their faces. The robbers told all the customers （顾客）in the bank to lie down on the floor. Witnesses （证人）said that everyone in the bank was very frightened and did what the robbers told them.
The teller agreed to give them the money but told them they’d have to wait a few minutes. She said the bank manager would have to get the money out of the safety. As the robbers were waiting for the money. the teller tried to press an alarm button(按警报按钮) that was hidden under the counter.
