Boris was a teacher. He taught science at a high school. For he needed some books for his lessons, he went to a bookshop to buy some. After he put them in his car in a quiet street, he went to buy some other things at other shops. When he came back to his car, one window was open and the books were gone. Boris drove home sadly.
That night he called a newspaper. The next day people read an advertisement in the newspaper:
Books: Have you got any old books? I buy old and modern books. Open all day on Saturdays. Boris 82 West Road.
And then he went to the police station with the Wednesday newspaper at once.
The first weekend, when Boris was staying at home, his first visitor came at 8:30 in the morning. Boris took him to the kitchen. At about ten o’clock another man arrived. He had a bag under his arm.
As soon as he saw Boris, he asked, “Are you Boris?”
“Yes, I am,” Boris said. “What can I do for you?”
“Look! I have got some good books here. You buy books, don’t you?”

Why do plants grow in some places and not in others? Why does some land have so much growing on it, while other land has almost no plants growing on it at all?
To grow, plants need several things. One is warmth. In very cold places almost nothing grows. Plants also need water. In very dry parts of the earth only a few unusual plants can grow. That’s why dry deserts everywhere are almost not covered by trees or grass.
Plants must also have a place in which to put down their roots and grow. They find it difficult to grow on hard land. The town is built on hard land. The plants here have only the soil found between the cracks of the stones to grow in.
Another thing plants must have before they can grow is food.
What will happen if we try to make things grow on the sandy beach? A few plants, such as beach grass, will grow in sand, but most plants won’t. Even if the weather is warm enough and we water the plants each day, many of them will die because the sand on this beach has almost no food for plants.What things don’t most plants need to grow well according to the passage?
A．Warmth. B．Food. C．Sandy beachWhat does the underlined word “cracks” mean in the passage?
A．表面 B．缝隙 C．夹层From the passage, we know that it is for plants to grow in dry places.
A．difficult B．impossible C．importantThe reason why most plants can’t grow on the sandy beach is that .
A．there isn’t enough sunlight
B．there is too much water
C．it has little food for plantsThe passage can most probably be found in a book.
A．science B．history C．travel
This year, Chongqing primary schools decide to start morning classes an hour later. This will help students feel less tired. And most primary schools will begin the first class at about 9 o’clock in the morning. The students are happy about the change.
Liu Ming told us that his classmates were excited by the news on the first day of the school. “Great! From now on we students at Hope Primary School don’t have to get up so early!” Liu said that he used to get up at 6:40 a.m. Now he can get up at 7:50 a.m. because class doesn’t start until 8:50 a.m. Wu Hong feels the same. She said the new timetable was good for her health. “I used to get up at 6:30 a.m. I had to drink coffee every night, or I would feel too sleepy to finish my homework,” said Wu Hong, “Now I can finish it without coffee, because I can sleep a little longer.”
Many teachers say the change will help students learn better. “Students used to doze（瞌睡）for the first two classes in the morning,” said Huang Shan, an English teacher at No.1 Primary School. “But now they are active and learn much better than before.”
But some parents are worried that more sleep will mean less learning. There used to be five classes in the morning. Now there are only four.
