DNA is the whole"map" of the human body.It is something that all humans have,and it tells the body what to do.DNA is the reason that we look like our parents,because we get some of their DNA to make our own.
People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time.In 1860,Mr Mendel discovered why we look similar to other people in our family.It is because of small things called "genes(基因)"in our body.In 1953,two scientists,Watson and Crick,found out that those small parts are real messages.They are written in the DNA with a special language.
In 1961,another two scientists found the first "word" that they could understand in that language.It shows how DNA tells the cell(细胞) to build its parts.So far,scientists have found all the words in the DNA map,but we do not understand what they all do.By understanding what just one "word" means,we can help to save people from several illnesses.So the more we understand ,the more doctors will be able to do.
Most people hope that this will help to make better medicine to help sick people,Other people worry that when we learn more "words" and find out more information,we will use it in the wrong way,just to make people more attractive(有吸引力的)or stop sick people getting jobs.

All about Electric Cars
Electric vehicles (电动车辆) have been around for more than a hundred years.But they have really been liked by a large number of people over the last ten years.More than three million all﹣electric cars,trucks,and vans are now on the road worldwide.
Helping the Environment
Most cars run on gasoline (汽油).Burning gasoline and other fossil fuels(物燃料)produces greenhouse gases.Electric vehicles don't burn gasoline.Instead,strong batteries nun their electric engines.So,electric vehicles don't directly produce greenhouse gases.
Poop Power!
Electric vehicles are better for the environment. But they are not perfect. Their batteries often use electricity (电) that was made by burning fossil fuels. But an electric vehicle uses less energy than a vehicle that runs on gasoline. Plus, some of the electricity comes from "greener" sources,such as solar and wind power. And some may soon come from a new source﹣cow poop(牛粪)!
An electric car company has worked together with a large dairy farm. They plan to make electricity using a greenhouse gas from cow poop.
Always Improving
One of the problems for electric vehicles is their limited range. This is how far they can travel before their batteries need another charge (充电). But now their range is improving. Some new electric vehicles can travel almost three times as far as older ones did. Another problem is finding a place to recharge the batteries. But the number of charging stations is going up as well, China now has thousands more charging stations than it did ten years ago. In Sweden, engineers have even designed a road that will charge electric vehicles as they drive along.
(1)Which of the following truly describes electric vehicles according to Paragraph 1?
A. Useless.
B. Popular.
C. Cheap.
D. Perfect.
(2)What does the picture above show?
A. Parts of an electric car.

D. Batteries in an electric car.
(3)How does the electric car company plan to make electricity according to Paragraph 3?
A. By burning gasoline.
B. By burning fossil fuels.
C. By using a gas coming from cow poop.
D. By using solar and wind power.
(4)What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. Reasons for buying new electric cars.
B. Importance of electric cars in our life.
C. Ways to produce more electric vehicles.
D. Problems and improvements of electric vehicles.

In the past, I thought I was terrible at many things, such as math, French and science. Although I was good at drawing, I wasn't the best in my art class.I wanted to find out who I was,what I liked and how I could do it better.So, that winter,I took a notebook and kept my diary. When I filled that notebook,I started another one, and then another.
Keeping a diary helps a lot. Studies have shown that people who keep a diary sleep and feel better. It helps people remember what once happened such as dreams, friendships and happiness. Writing about bad feelings can also help brains get over themand move on. Personally, I learn better about myself and my relationships with others by keeping a diary.For example,when I am fighting with my dad, I'll try writing from his point and it works! If I want to compare myself with my classmates.I'll write something like,"I might not have clear skin, but I like my eyes."
Right about now, you might be thinking: it sounds great, but I'm not a good writer; or I'd love to keep a diary, but my handwriting is terrible. Don't worry! Keeping a diary is not like doing your homework ﹣there are no rules, so do whatever feels best.

The Chinese kite is a symbol of the Chinese handicraft (手工艺品). Flying a kite is a very popular activity in China. In spring, large numbers of people gather in the squares or parks and fly beautiful kites there.
A philosopher (哲学家) called Mozi was said to be the inventor of the Chinese kite. His invention had the bird's name of "Yuan", a kind of bird of the hawk (鹰) family with a long tail. He made the kite out of wood. Later, his student Lu Ban improved it and made the kite out of bam boo.
With the development of papermaking, paper was introduced into the kite﹣ making. The kite got the name "Zhi Yuan", as "Zhi" in Chinese means paper. And during the Five Dynasties period, people tied the bamboo whistle (哨子) to the kite. When the kite was flying, the airflow (气流)
could make the whistle sound like Guzheng playing. So the kite carried the name "Fengzheng".
From then on, making and playing the kite became very popular in Weifang, Shandong Province. Every year in spring, when the weather became warm, almost every family went out to fly the kite and have a picnic on sunny and windy days. It was an exciting folk activity and a good time to display various beautiful kites. At the same time, they also enjoyed the warm weather and fresh air. The tradition has been well kept until today and has become the world﹣ famous Weifang International Kite Festival, which is held from 20th to 25th in April every year.
Flying a kite in spring does people much good. For example, it is a good way to reduce the backache (背痛). Besides, when people fly a kite, it can help them forget their stressful (压力重的) situations and reconnect (再连接) them to nature.

"Well, I'll eat the cake," Alice said. "If I get taller, I can reach the key on the table. And if get Smaller, I can go under the door into the garden."Then she fished the cake very soon.
"I shall be as tall as a house in a minute," she said. She tried to look down at her feet, and could only just see them.
Just then her head hit the ceiling (天花板) of the room. She was now about three meters tall quickly, she took the key from the table and hurried to the garden door. But she was too tall to go through the door. She began to cry. The tears (泪水) ran down her face, and soon there was large pool of salt water all around her on the floor. Suddenly she heard a voice, and she stopped crying to listen.
"Oh, the Duchess (公爵夫人),the Duchess! She'll be very angry! I'm late, and she's waiting for me. Oh dear, oh dear!"
It was the White Rabbit again. He was hurrying down the long room, with a pair of white gloves in one hand and a fan in the other hand.
Alice was afraid, but she needed help. So she said in a low voice,"Oh, please, sir﹣"
Her voice frightened ( 使惊恐) the Rabbit. He dropped the gloves and the fan, and ran away quickly.
Alice picked up the gloves and the fan. The room was very hot, so she cooled down with the fan. She said, "Oh dear! How strange everything is today! Shall I get smaller during the night?"
She began to feel very unhappy again, but then she looked down at her hand. She was wearing one of the Rabbit's white gloves."How did I get it on my hand?" she thought."Oh, I'm getting smaller again! I'm already less than a meter tall and getting smaller every second! How can I stop it?" She saw the fan in her other hand. "It must be the fan!" she thought, and quickly she dropped it.
She was now very, very small, and the key was still lying on the table.
"Things are worse than ever," thought poor Alice. She turned away from the door, and fell into salt water, right up to her neck. At first she thought it was the sea,but then she saw it was the pool of her own tears.
"Oh, why did I cry so much?" said Alice. She swam around and looked for a way out, but the pool was very big. Just then she saw an animal in the water near her. It looked like a large animal to Alice, but it was only a mouse.
"Shall I speak to it?" thought Alice. "Everything is very strange here, so perhaps a mouse can speak.
Then she began,"Oh, Mouse, do you know the way out of this pool? I am very tired of swimming.
But the mouse looked at her with its little eyes and said nothing.
"Perhaps it doesn't understand English,"thought Alice. "Perhaps it's a French mouse. "So she began again, and said in French,"Where is my cat?" (This was first sentence in her French book. )
The mouse jumped half out of the water and looked at her angrily.
"Oh, I'm sorry!" cried Alice quickly."Of course, you don't like cats, do you?"
"No. I don't like cats," the mouse replied.
