My wife and I were on our honeymoon in our homeland, visiting my parents﹣in﹣law.My wife Helen was making a film and my job was to make up the music, but I didn't bring my guitar with me. I locked myself in the barn toilet,and carved a guitar neck from a scrap(废弃的) piece of wood. In the barn, I found a drum, which used to be part of an old tape﹣recorder, It's like a guitar, but it has four strings. So is it a balalaika or a guitar?

Our daughter Kitty had just started school,so she needed a place to do her homework.There isn't much room except a table in the kitchen.When my wife cooks,she needs to use the table. One day I walked past a rubbish bin and saw a folding (可折叠的) table lying there.I thought I could make something out of it. It was just the right size a bigger one wouldn't have fitted into the room.I fixed a slab of board for the desk and made the back of the seat softer,then I oiled the screws so it is easier to fold. |
Our dad's friend made the Little House for his daughter.It was made of wood and bricks which were thrown away.And when she grew up, he offered it to us.So how long has it been standing here?

When my children were growing up, they used to say "We're going to play in the Little House!"or "Where are you? I'm in the Little House!" |
It's a go﹣kart for my son Tom to ride down the hill.He wanted to make one so I helped him.I had bought him one,but he wasn't satisfied with that.I just made it from pieces lying around.The wheels were from two different scrapped carts. My father﹣in﹣law had them in his barn.He doesn't throw anything away. I only used cart parts, some wood, a cushioned seat, and a rope.It cost nothing. My son likes it so much. I feel so happy. |

Dear Sir/Madam,
①It is now common to go online in the home, yet a recent survey showed that ninety﹣five percent of parents do not know what websites their children visit. I strongly believe that a training project should be started to help parents to improve their Internet and computer skills so that they can better monitor and guide their children.
②One advantage of providing training is that it would get parents to pay more attention to their children's online activities. If they had a better understanding of the Internet, they would see the need to make sure that their children use it properly and responsibly.
③Another argument for providing training to parents is that it would allow parents to help their children with their schoolwork.These days, a lot of homework needs to be done on computers. If parents have poor computer skills, they will be of little or no help with homework, which can make them upset.Some people argue that it is good that students can work independently on computers. However, it is clear that students, especially young students, often need this kind of home support.
④Improving parents' Internet and computer skills might also be a good way or parents to improve their relationships with their children.These days,children spend a lot of their free time on computers.If parents want to be part of that free time,they need to see that playing on computers can be a fun family activity.Joining their children can help parents bridge the generation gap(代沟) between them and their children.
⑤I strongly believe that children need to be helped and guided to use the Internet in a proper and responsible way, and so training is extremely important.
Yours faithfully.
Pat Chan

Dogs are very sociable(合群的) animals.When owners go out and leave their dogs alone,the dogs get worried and upset.Dogs should be trained to be their own while still young instead of when they are older and set in their ways.When owners are not around,they should provide some toys for their dogs to play with.Leaving the radio or television turned on might also provide relaxing background noise.

We touch our faces all the time, and it had never seemed to be a big problem ﹣ until COVID 19 arrived.Touching our faces ﹣ the "T﹣zone' 'of our eye, nose and mouth ﹣ can mean giving ourselves this virus.
This is why some organizations have suggested that we should avoid touching our faces.William Sawyer, from Henry the Hand. told The Washington Post, "Just stop this simple behavior,and that would be better than any vaccine (疫苗)lever created,"
However, stopping this "simple" behavior might he harder than you think because we are used to it.
Some face﹣touching is an automatic reaction: like when there is an itch (痒) on your nose,you'll touch it again and again without thinking. A 2014 study found that touching your face also helps you to have less stress.For example. it's possible for you to do it when you feel embarrassed.According to Dacher Kelmer, a psychologist an the University of Califormia Berkeley, Us. this action may also have a social use: When you are taking to someone, for example, touching your face means you want to talk about another thing.
Besides, it's very hard to change this face touching "because you don't even kn6w you're doing it",said Sawyer.
But you're not alone. In a 2015 study. it was found that a group of medical students touched their faces about 23 times an hour ﹣ with 44 percent of the touches in the T﹣zones" , That was very surprising because medical students should know better.
Since it's so hard to shake the habit, maybe the easiest way is to wash our hands more often.This way, we can be sure that our hands are safe from COVID﹣19.
(1)The "T﹣zone" is formed from .
A. Our eyes
B. our nose and mouth
C. our eyes, nose and mouth
(2)In the second paragraph, Sawyer thinks that .
A. face﹣touching is simple and helpful
B. we should avoid touching our faces
C. face﹣touching may be better than vaccine
(3)Dacher Kelmer believes that .
A. face touching may increase stress
B. face﹣ touching may have a social use
C. face﹣touching may cause an itch on your face
(4)The last paragraph tells us to .
A.wash our hands more often
B. stop the habit of touching our faces
C. ask medical students not to touch their faces
(5)What is the main idea of the passage?
A. face﹣touching may give us COVID﹣ 19.
B. Face﹣touching may be very useful for us.
C. Stopping face touching might be harder than we think.

But now we have got the technology to treat and reuse the wastewater.
While 75% of our planet is covered with water, only about 2% is fresh water﹣that comes from rivers, lakes, ice and snow. The rest, 98% of the water, is in seas and oceans. It is too salty to drink. Then desalinationbusinesses come in. More than 19.000 factories have been built around the world, mostly in coastal countries. They process(加工) more than 92 million tons of water every day. But the technology they use requires a lot of energy.
Scientists are working to create a less costly technology. They want to produce 20 times more clean water and make sure everyone has enough. But for now, the world still faces each day with not having enough water for everyone.
(1)How many people have trouble in getting clean water around the world?
