Mahalya is a student in Grade 8at Lamberton Middle School in Pennsylvania， US． Every afternoon at 2o'clock， she runs to a store at her school， she is not running to buy snacks． Instead， she works as the storekeeper and helps count change（零钱）for customers．
"I didn't know that it took so much work． I didn't do anything like this，" Mahalya told The Seaeinel， a local newspaper．
In fact， she and another 11students work as the storekeepers at Bison Bargains， the school's first student﹣run store． I started on February 22， and it opens each school day during break time from 2to 2：30p．m． It mainly sells stationeryand snacks．
Through this， students see what a business is like． Christian 11g， a 14﹣year﹣old student， was really surprised by how hard it was to not make mistakes and do the transactions（交易）． "It's kind of a challenge to learn all the information on the stock（供应物）lists and remember all the prices of the products，" Christian told the newspaper．
To help them learn about business， they took a class． The class taught students how to use money and some simple business rules．
The school did a survey on what products students would buy from a school store． In the future， they plan to sell things made by the students themselves． For example， students can sell their homemade pencil boxes and phone cases．

任务型阅读，根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
The English language is changing all the time. New words are created, like DIY, SDA and e-mail. How do words come into English? Many words are borrowed from other languages. From Chinese, for example, English has borrowed words like kowtow and kung fu.
Words have also come into English in unusual ways. Words like classroom and mooncake are two short words which are put together. Also, parts of two words are put together and become a new word. For example, smog comes from smoke and fog. Some words come from longer words, like TV from television, and math from mathematics. Don’t you think all these make English an interesting language?

Now more water is needed.The problem is how we can avoid a serious water shortage in the future. 3 Scientists are making study in this field.Today，In most large cities water is used only once and then runs to the sea or rivers.but it can be used again.Even if every large city reused its water，the water will still not be enough. 4 .
The sea seems to give us the best answer.There is a lot of water in the sea.All that needs to be get the salt out of the sea water.This will be expensive，but it has already been used in many parts of the world. 6 So you see，if we can find out a way，we’ll be in no danger of drying up.
