Citizens Have Rights
As a citizen, you have rights that the government protects. A right is something you may do. As a citizen, you have a right to speak freely and to practise your religion. You also have the right to privacy. That means you may decide what to show or tell someone and what not to tell.

"Listen carefully to what I say," the time traveler said, "I shall tell you something that you will not agree."
"Why will we not agree?" I asked.
"Because the science and mathematics you know are not correct," he said. "You believe there are only three dimensions(三维空间)-length, breadth(宽) and thickness."
"There is nothing to argue with that, " the youngest member of our little group said.
"Exactly!" the time traveler answered, "But there is also a fourth dimension - time."
"We all know about time, " another member of the group said. "Time passed."
"I do not agree," the time traveler said, "Length, breadth and thickness do not pass. They stay in the same place in space. We move about them. I can prove that time is the same. It does not pass. We move in time the same way that we move in breadth, length and thickness."
None of us believed the time traveler, and we argued with him for many hours.
"If we could travel back in time," the scientist said, "We could do things to change the future."
"If we could travel forward in time," the doctor(博士) said, "we could do things that change our present."
The time traveler smiled, "It is clear," he said, "that there is only one way I can show you that I am right. We must do an experiment. Please wait here."
He left the room and soon returned, carrying what looked like a clock.
"This is a model of a time machine. It took me two years to make it," the time traveler said. "I want all of you to understand that when I start the machine, it will immediately travel in time and disappear from the present."
He turned to the youngest of all. "Give me your hand," he said.
The young man put out his hand. The time traveler took it and placed it on the machine. Immediately, there was a sudden wind, and the little machine disappeared.
I was certain this was not a trick, but the doctor was not so sure.
"Are you asking us to believe," he said, "that the machine is now in a different time?"
"Certainly! In my laboratory, a full-size machine is almost complete. As soon as it is complete, I shall send myself on a journey through time. Would you like to see my machine?"
"Are you serious about this?" the doctor asked.
"I have never been more serious about anything," the time traveler said, "Come."
We followed him to his laboratory. There, we saw the actual machine, not quite complete, but large enough for a man to sit in. How many dimensions did the time traveler say there are?

How long did it take the time traveler to make his model time machine?

It was another day to jump rope in gym class. Lynn and Mike turned the long rope in big, slow circles. The whole class hurried to get in line to wait for their turn to jump. Millie stood at the back of the line and frowned.
Nick went first. He watched the rope and ran in at just the right time. Everyone counted. He made it all the way to 30 jumps. One after another, the kids watched the rope, ran in, and jumped. Then it was Millie’s turn. She watched the rope go around and around, but she didn’t move. She felt like everyone was looking at her.
Millie’s friends cheered. “Go, Millie, go!”
Millie’s face turned red. At last, she gave it a try, but she failed.
The truth was that Millie had been jumping rope at home every day. With a short rope, she could jump 100 times without missing. She just didn’t know how to run in and start jumping with a long rope. Since she was the only kid on her street, there was no one to help turn the long rope.
Just then, Ms Miles, the gym teacher, brought out a bunch of short jump ropes.
"Let's see how long each one of you can jump without missing," she said as she gave each student a short rope, "Ready, set. Go!"
Millie smiled for the first time ever in gym class. As she jumped, she sang rhymes quietly to herself.
After a while, Millie realized that everyone was cheering, "Go, Millie, go!"
She was the only one still jumping rope! The surprise almost made her miss a step, but she kept going. When at last she was too tired to go on, she stopped. The whole class cheered. Everyone was looking at her and smiling. Millie smiled back! Which word is the opposite of the underlined word frowned?
| A．Sat. | B．Hid. | C．Smiled | D．Cried |

| A．She didn't have any friends in her class. |
| B．She felt sad because Nick made fun of her. |
| C．She didn't know the cheers that the other kids knew. |
| D．She didn't know how to start jumping with a long rope. |
Why did Millie smile for the first time in gym class?
| A．She did something well at last. |
| B．She knew the class would cheer for her. |
| C．She thought that she was going to make a friend. |
| D．She believed that she would be the winner of the contest. |
Which sentence can be put in the empty?
| A．The class decided to play baseball. |
| B．Millie was the last one still jumping rope. |
