“Can I see my baby?” asked the happy new mother. When the baby was in her arms, she found the baby had been born without ears.
Time proved (证明) that the baby’s hearing was perfect. He got on well with his classmates. But one day, he rushed home and said to his mother with tears in his eyes. “a boy, a big boy…called me a freak(怪胎).”
The boy grew up. He developed a gift, a talent for literature(文学) and music.
The boy’s father had a meeting with the family doctor. “Could anything be done?” he asked the doctor.
“I believe I could graft (移植) a pair of outer ears, if you could get them,” the doctor said.
However, two years went by, but nobody wanted to offer the young man ears. Then one day the father said, “Son, someone will donate his ears to you. But it’s a secret.” The operation (手术) was a great success.
Time kept the secret, but the day did come… The young man stood with his father beside his mother’s body. Slowly, the father held out a hand and raised the thick, brown hair. To his surprise, the son found his mother had no outer ears.
“Mother said she was glad she never let her long hair be cut,” he said gently, “and nobody ever thought Mother less beautiful, did they?”
Real love lies not in ( lie…in 在于) what is done and known, but in what is
done but not known.
What was wrong with the baby?
Why did the boy rush home crying from school one day?
 
Did he know who had donated the outer ears to him before his mother’s death?
________________________
Who donated the ears to the boy in fact?
 
What does the writer want to tell us through the story?

Clean water is not only important for people to produce food,but necessary for our life. However,many people in Asia and Africa don’t have enough clean water to use. The World Health Organization reports that almost 4,000 children die each day of dirty water or lack(缺乏)of water.
Farmers use 70-85% of the world fresh water to produce food. People usually don’t pay much attention to how much water industry(工业)uses,but you may be surprised to know that industry uses 59% of the water in developed countries.
Home use takes up(占据)only 8% in the world. But as cities grow,more water will be used. The local government has to try to make people use less water.
In 60% of European cities,people are saving water by using less. They even keep waste water for other use.
In Australia,the government has encouraged people to collect rainwater and recycle water from showers for a second use.
The US Environmental Protection Agency has made a water saving program to encourage families and businesses to check their water use and save more water. Scientists and the UN are looking for good water management as the key to solving the problem.We can all work together to protect our fresh water in our daily life.
In developed countries,most water is used by industry.
People in Asia have enough clean water to use.
To save water,Australians and Europeans both choose to recycle water for a second use.
According to the passage,scientists have found good ways to deal with water problems.
Home use of water will increase because of the growing of cities.

I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch (牧马场). The last time I was there he told me his story.
When he was young, his family is too poor to have a house to live in. One day when he was in a high school, he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up. That night he wrote a seven-page paper describing his goal of owning a horse ranch. He also drew a picture to show a 4,000-square-foot house that would sit on a beautiful farm. The next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F. Roberts asked, “Why did I receive an F?” His teacher said, “This is an unrealistic (不现实的) dream for a young boy like you. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money.” Then the teacher added, “ If you rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider (重新考虑) your grade.”
The boy went home and thought about it for a long and hard time. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, “Look, son, you have to change your own mind on this.” Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy handed in the same paper, making no changes at all. He told his teacher “You can keep the F and I sill keep my dream.”
Monty said a lot of kids’ dreams can be stolen. Don’t let anyone steal your dream. Follow your heart, no matter what others think. Have enough gumption (毅力) till your dream comes true.

How to beat sadness
We all have days when we are down, tired and unhappy. That’s OK. You need days like this, or how would you know you are happy? You’ll enjoy your good days even more when you have a few bad days. Even if sadness is a part of life, let’s try to make it small. Here are a few simple ways to help you feel better when you are feeling sad.
1. Stand up straight and this helps your energy flow(流动). When your energy is flowing freely, you can flow too.
2. Smile! It’s easy to do and have good results. This way can not only leave you in a good mood but also bring others a good mood.
3. Listen to music. It can be the music you like best. Some kinds of music work better than others, so try and find out what kind of music works the best for you.
4. Take some “me” time. You can find pleasure in reading a book, watching a sunrise or having a hot bath, or something like that.
5. Exercise. Even something as simple as taking a walk will get your blood flowing. It is a great way to clear your mind of anything that makes you sad.
These ways will cheer you up when you are down, but don’t just use them when you are sad. Try and practice them every day to make them a habit(习惯). You will be surprised to learn that these simple ways will keep your sadness away. But if you are in a deep depression(沮丧), go to see a doctor.

Strange,but the green sea turtle is not that green.  It’s certainly not as green as a tree.  In fact,its shell(壳)is nearly black or brown.The largest hard-shelled sea turtle is between 200 and 300 pounds heavy and a shell is between 36 and 43 inches(英尺)long.But its head is smaller than other turtles.
Little baby green sea turtles are only two inches long.As the turtle grows up,its shell keeps mostly black while the body turns orange or brown.Young turtles like living in the sea,especially in areas with 1ots of sea grasses.
Green sea turtles,like all sea turtles,are very different from land or river turtles.All sea turtles can swim through the water faster.Instead of feet for walking,sea turtles have flippers(鳍状肢)which are better for swimming.The flippers aren’t good on land,however,and walking is hard for a sea turtle because they are usually big and heavy.
One other interesting thing about a sea turtle’s flippers is that they cannot be pulled into their shells.Land turtles can pull their feet into their shells for protection.but a sea turtle can’t.

Going to a friend’s house is very exciting. You may spend time with a friend and get to see where he lives. It is important to be a good visitor.
When to arrive
The first thing to remember is that when a friend invites you, you need to arrive on time. If your friend tells you to come "around 3:00", that means you can turn up a little bit after 3:00. But usually it is a good idea to arrive at the right time.
What to bring
Often it is also nice to bring something to your friend's house. This could be a box of chocolates for you two to share, or maybe a movie that you can watch together. You can also bring some flowers. A little gift is a nice way to show your friend that you are excited to be at his house.
How to greet (问候)
When you visit your friend's house, you may also meet his parents. You should tell them who you are and they may tell you their names. As a child, I went to visit my friend Paul. I called his parents by their first names John and Mary. But now I know it is more polite to call them Mr. or Mrs. Smith.
