Scientists who study the climate (气候) are still arguing about how fast the earth is warming and how much it will warm, but they do agree that the earth is warming and that it will keep warming if we don’t do anything about it.
Scientists agree that the burning of fossil fuels (化石燃料) like oil and coal cause greenhouse gases to escape (释放) into the air and that these gases are causing most of the warming. Another cause is deforestation ( cutting down trees ) . Trees soak up carbon dioxide  (二氧化碳) , one of the greenhouse gases, from the air.
There are already some changes happening because of global warming. Sea level is rising and some animals are already moving to new homes. It’s already too late to stop global warming completely.
If the warming gets worse, as scientists expect, there may be some kinds of plants and animals that become extinct (灭绝的) because they can’t move to new homes. There may be more storms and floods. Sea level may rise so much that people have to move away from the coasts. Some areas may become too dry for farming.
Global warming is a very difficult problem to fix. People are having a hard time agreeing on what to do about it. For example, everyone agrees that wasting energy is a bad thing to do. But some people think that the federal government (联邦政府) should make laws about it, while other people think it should be up to each person or business to decide what to do.
Many states and businesses in the United States are not waiting until the federal government decides what to do. They have already started working on the problem.

Have you ever ridden a Ferris wheel lately? Can you imagine the flying feeling as you are pulled up to the top and then moved down to the bottom quickly again?




 

 

Today a Ferris wheel is usually 40 to 60 feet tall. That seems very high when you are on the top looking down. But the first Ferris wheel was 264 feet high – taller than a twenty-story building! Can you imagine the view from the top of that?





 

 

The first Ferris wheel was built for the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago. The people who planned the fair were looking for an attraction that would bring people to Chicago. George Ferris handed a drawing of a giant wheel that people could ride on. At first everyone laughed at his strange idea. But Mr. Ferris did not give up, and finally the idea was accepted. The ride opened in June of 1893.

Today’s Ferris wheels have 12 to 16 seats, which each carry 2 or 3 people. But that first one had 36 enclosed cars, each holding 60 passengers. When filled, it carried 2,160 people. During that summer in Chicago, about 1.5 million people rode the Ferris wheel.
After the fair the ride was moved to a nearby amusement park built especially to show off the wheel. In 1904, it was moved again – to St. Louis for the Louisiana Purchase Exposition. After the fair there, the wheel stood unused. In 1906 it was finally sold to a company for scrap metal (废铁).
Luckily a Chicago bridge builder, W.E. Sullivan, figured out how to make a smaller Ferris wheel that could easily be taken apart and put together. In 1906 he started the company that still makes many of the Ferris wheels used today.
But, whenever you ride one, remember that it all began with George Ferris’s strange idea!
How tall is a Ferris wheel today?

What was the first Ferris wheel built for?

Recently some houses in our community have been broken into. I would like to give you some suggestions about how to prevent from stealing (盗窃).
First, let’s talk about lighting. We should turn on the outside lights at night. Inside the house, it’s a good idea to put automatic timers (自动定时器) on lights. When you are out, it will still look like someone is at home. If you live in an apartment building, make sure that there’s good lighting in the garage and in the hallways.
Next, let’s talk about locks. First of all, cheap locks are not safe. You should buy special locks to lock your doors and windows. 83 Remember to lock your doors and windows, even when you leave for just a minute. Did you know that half of the thieves break in through unlocked doors and windows?
My next suggestion is not to keep lots of money in the house. It’s wise to put your money in a bank. You should put marks on your other valuables, like television, stereos and cameras, so that the police can return them to you if they are found.
84Believe it or not, if you follow all of these suggestions above, your house will be safer.

Much of our good health depends on the cooperation(协同作用) between substances(物质). When they work together ,chemical reactions(反应) take place smoothly. Body systems are kept in balance. Some of the most important helpers in the job of good health are the substances we call vitamins.
Vitamin A is needed to produce a light –sensitive substance in the eyes. People who do not get enough vitamin A can’t see well in the dark. The best source(来源) of vitamin A is fish liver oil. It is also found in the yellow part of eggs. What’s more, squash, sweet potatoes, carrots and other darkly colored fruits and vegetables contain substances that the body can change into vitamin A.
Vitamin B-1 is also called thiamine. It changes starchy foods into energy. It also helps the heart and nervous system work smoothly. Without it, we would be weak and would not grow. Thiamine is found not just in whole grains like brown rice, but also in other foods. These include beans and peas, nuts and meat and fish.
VitaminB-12 is needed so folic acid can do its work. Together , they help produce red blood cells. Without them, a person suffers from anemia(贫血)。VitaminB-12 is found naturally in foods such as eggs, meat, fish and milk products.
Vitamin C is necessary for strong bones and teeth, and for healthy blood vessels. It also helps wounds heal quickly. The body stores very little Vitamin C. so we must get it very day in foods such as citrus, tomatoes and uncooked cabbage.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am a middle school student. I am writing to you because I have trouble with my studies now. I hope you can give me some advice.
I work hard both at school and at home. In class, I listen to my teachers very carefully. I take notes of every word of the teachers. After school I read my notes but sometimes I find that I don’t really understand them. While I am having another class, I am still thinking about those problems. This kind of thing happens over and over again. I want to ask the teachers for help. They are kind and I know they will try their best to help me. But they are always busy. I ask my classmates for help. But they can’t explain things as clearly as the teachers. The night before the test, I still find that I can’t understand many things. So I always get bad grades.
What should I do? How can I improve my studies? I hope I can hear from you soon.
Yours sincerely,
Harry

Chinese Culture
While China is almost the same size as the US in area, it is home to about 1.3 billion people. It has a special culture with a very long history.
Chinese Food

Food plays an important role for Chinese families. Different foods have special meanings. The most obvious(明显的) difference is that Chinese people eat their meals with chopsticks. One of the main foods in Chinese culture is rice. Tea is a favorite drink and it is popular in the market.
Chinese New Year
The Chinese calendar(日历) is called a lunar(阴历的) calendar. It is not the same as the one used in the US. New Year’s Day is in late winter. It is also called the Spring Festival. It has a big celebration of letting go of the old and bringing in the new. It has special foods and traditions. For example, sweeping the floor before New Year’s Day sweeps away all the old year’s bad luck.
Chinese Zodiac(生肖)
The Chinese zodiac, known as Sheng Xiao, follows a twelve-year cycle(循环). Each year is named for an animal. These animal signs are the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. For example, the year that begins in 2016 is the Year of the Monkey.

Chinese Language
Chinese is a complex(复杂的) language. Chinese writing developed almost 4,000 years ago and may even be older. Chinese writing has thousands of characters. A character represents(代表) a word and also a meaning. Unlike English, there are no spaces in Chinese writing. Besides Standard Chinese, or Putonghua, Chinese people speak six other forms of the language, and there are many kinds of dialects(方言).
Is tea a favorite drink in China?
What is the Chinese calendar called?
How many years of cycle does the Chinese zodiac follow?

The 2015 Nobel Prizes have been announced. Sweden's Nobel Prize committee said the Nobel Prize for medicine will go to scientists from Ireland, Japan and China. William Campbell from Ireland and Satoshi Omura from Japan share the prize for their discovery of the drug avcrmectin(除虫菌素).The prize for medicine is also going to Tu Youyou. She discovered artemisinin(青蒿素). Artemisinin is a drug that has greatly lowered the number of people who die from malaria(疟疾). The committee said her greatest achievement is that discovery of artemisinin has given the world new ways to fight against two serious diseases. That's why Ms. Tu got the prize. It is said those diseases influence millions of people every year.
Ms. Tu is the chief professor at the China Academy of Traditional Medicine. She is also the first Chinese citizen to be awarded the Nobel Prize in medicine. It took her great and painful effort to make the great discovery. She always tested the medicine by herself and her liver(肝) got badly hurt. From 1972 to 2012, Ms. Tu went through about 40 failures before she succeeded. But she never gave up and always fought on.
A member of the Nobel committee said that the award for Tu Youyou is the result of a great change in the way that Chinese do scientific research. He says China has spent a lot of money on this kind of research. This member also said that the work of the three scientists could help end the health risk of diseases affecting 3.4 billion people.
Is Ms. Tu the first Chinese citizen to win the Nobel prize for medicine?
 
How long did it take her to make the discovery?

Our cities are getting bigger and bigger as more people move from the country to the cities. There are lots of reasons why they do this—mostly it is easy to find work, because all the big companies are in the cities and they need lots of people to work there. When there are lots of people living and working in a city, they need things like restaurants, shops, hospitals and schools. There are more jobs that people need to do. There will be lots of transport in the city to move all the people around. Everything you want will be found in the city: government offices, museums and art galleries, cinemas, big restaurants and parks.
Unfortunately(遗憾地) the city is much busier, more expensive, and more dangerous than the country. The air is not as fresh as in the country because of all the cars and trucks on the roads. There are so many people that are not as friendly——you cannot get to know everyone as you do in the country, and people may get lonely. You do not have much room in the city——most people live in apartments——not houses, and they do not have gardens or lots of space, and because of all the people there is also a lot of noises.
The country is much cheaper to live and there are less dangerous people than you find in cities. Perhaps the best thing is that you can have a big house with a garden and it will be very quiet, but there are not many jobs or services there. There are also not many shops, schools or hospitals. It is hard to get around in the country.
Every person is different, but more and more people are choosing to live in cities because there are so many jobs to do there. What do you think about the city?
Are our cities getting bigger than before?
Why do people move to the city?
What is the best thing about the country?
What is the problem with the country?
What does the writer think about cities?
