Have you ever wanted to achieve a goal and ended up doing lots of research on how to achieve it？ As you learned more and more． it seemed you knew less and less． That is because when you learned a new concept （ 概念）， you found that there was a lot more to know about it．

Usually， people think they need to get more and more information before trying a new idea． There is nothing wrong with learning a lot， but when you let learning get in the way of doing，you will never get going．

Lulu and Sophia have a "tiger mother"． She pushed them a lot when they were young． For example， they were not allowed to get grades lower than A's． They had to practice the piano or violin for several hours a day． There were no games or TV．

As the saying goes， "Give a man a fish， and you feed him for a day． Teach a man to fish， and you feed him for a lifetime．" This is the way the charity organization Heifer International（国际小母牛慈善组织） wants to end world hunger．

It began in the 1930s when an American farmer， Dan West， went to Spain to help people in need．He tried to feed the people with milk． But it seemed that there would never be enough milk． It made him think that what they needed was "not a cup， but a cow"．

Dan West returned to America． He worked together with some friends to find ways to end hunger． He believed giving animals and providing training would stop world hunger． With his help， Heifer

International was set up．

On Heifer International's website， you will see a list of animals like cows， chickens， pigs and

even fish and bees． You can offer help by buying some animals for one certain family． Those animals will have babies． With more and more animals， these families will be able to support themselves． Once these families get better lives， they will pass on the act of kindness to others． More importantly， you are buying the resources（资源） for programs run by Heifer International to help more families．

The programs also help small﹣sized farms． As a rule， each farmer must give his animal's first female （雌性）baby to another in need． Heifer International also provides training on animals' health and feeding． And these farmers all agree to teach others what they have learned as another rule．

However， there is still a long way to go． The milk may run out． But if families have their own cows， they can get plenty of milk to feed themselves． The organization wants the farmers to go on working together， helping each other and learning from each other． Maybe hunger can really be stopped．

（1）According to the passage， we know that Dan West 　　．

A．	set up a team in Spain
B．	helped people with enough fish
C．	was a Spanish farmer
D．	helped set up Heifer International

（2）Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the charity organization Heifer International 　　？

Dear Li Hua，

How's everything going？ Congratulations on your graduation from junior high school!

I hope you have a great time during the holiday， but there is something important for you to think

about﹣a plan for your personal growth． Here is some advice for you．

Firstly， studyyourself． Understand what you like， what you value and what you want to be． In

studying yourself， you check your strengths（长处） and weaknesses． Find out what you need to prepare for your dream job．

Secondly， write down your plan． When writing， you can try using Mind Maps（思维导图）． It is a

good way to help you to think more clearly． And you may find a proper way to work your plan out．

Thirdly， go over your plan with your teachers， parents or friends． They may give you some advice．

Think carefully about their advice and make some changes to your plan if necessary． And then you can go on with it．

Finally， （ 4 ）． For example， if you want to be an English teacher in the future， you should spend more time reading English books， learning more about English culture and practicing your listening and speaking from now on． You can make your dream come true only through hard work．

You may find it difficult to make the plan now． Don't worry． All you need is just a rough（粗略的）

one． Once you enter the senior high school， you'll get a chance to make it better with the help of your teachers． And your personal growth plan may change with your age， your interests and the social development． So take your time and I believe you will grow into an excellent young man．

   Best wishes!

A cup of coffee is a good way for many people to start their day． It can also pass on kindness．

Manyang Kher used to be a Sudanese child refugee （难民）． When he was three years old， his village was burnt in the war． He was separated from his parents and never saw them again． He became one of the 20， 000 young Sudanese who had to leave their home for Ethiopia's Gambella area． He lived there as a refugee for 13 years．

When he was 16， Kher went to the United States． While he was in college， he started a program to help the refugees． Now， he owns a coffee company（公司）called 734， which is a part of his program． The company has helped more than 200， 000 refugees living in the Gambella area till now． Kher said，"I know the difficulties and pains they face every day． You see kids die from hunger． You see kids dying of illnesses． You see kids running away from the refugee camp to find a place to be home，but die on the way．"

Eighty percent of the money made by the coffee company is used to send more of the children to school． And， as Kher explains， the money helps refugees to help themselves． For example， a cup of 734 coffee can also buy one fishing net（ 网）for a refugee． They can fish for themselves．

Scientists in Britain and the United States have made a new kind of enzyme（酵素）that eats plastics（塑料）． With its help， plastics can be turned into smaller parts and go away quickly． Scientists believe that， in the future， it could solve the problem of plastic pollution．

The enzyme is able to break downPET， a form of plastic． PET was first made in the 1940s and is now widely used to make plastic bottles． It can remain in the environment for many years and pollute large areas of land and water． So it has always been a headache to deal with the waste from PET and other plastics．

The researchers made the discovery（发现）while examining the structure of a natural enzyme in Japan． They found that the natural enzyme was helping to break down PET plastics． So， they decided to make small changes to the enzyme by adding some amino acids（氨基酸）． It made the natural enzyme's plastic﹣eating abilities work faster and better．

John McGeehan， one of the lead researchers， said， "We've made an improved enzyme． It's better

than he natural one． And we are trying to make more improvements to it． "He went on， "The enzyme is not harmful to humans or animals， and it is friendly to the environment． So we are considering putting it into wider use．"

The team is now trying to make the enzyme break down PET in large quantities（大量地）．"We'll see that the plastic pollution may be stopped with this technology． However， there is still a long way to go，"John McGeehan added．

（1）According to the scientists， the enzyme may solve the problem of 　　pollution．

Gardening is popular in many parts of the world． It brings us sweet smelling flowers， fresh fruit and vegetables． But you can get more from your garden．

Every school day， we use schoolbags to carry all of our things to school． They are a big part of our lives． But have you ever thought about the history of the schoolbag？

In the Han Dynasty （汉朝）， students in old﹣style private schools used bamboo boxes to carry books to school． People consider the bamboo boxes to be the earliest schoolbags． They were usually two or three layers （层） in the box． Kids put different things like books， brushes， ink stones （砚） and paper in the boxes．

Hundreds of years later， people developed a new kind of schoolbag called the budai， or the "hip﹣pocket"． The budai was lighter than the bamboo box． With the founding （成立） of the People's Republic of China， military rucksacks （军用帆布包） became popular． Many people carried them when they were in school． Ask your grandparents or parents about these bags． Maybe they can tell you about their experiences of carrying them when they were in school．

A new style of schoolbags has appeared in recent years． Many of them have colorful and fashionable designs （时尚的设计） on them， such as pictures of cartoons or pop stars． And they are more comfortable to use． Some students pull wheeled bags filled with heavy textbooks and others carry backpacks．

China covers large areas and has a great population． Different living habits have always been an interesting topic in the country． Recently， another difference between southern Chinese and northern Chinese became a hot one： the way people shop at markets．

People from southern China say that they always buy what they need for just one or two meals． It is normal for them to buy half of a Chinese cabbage， two potatoes and 0.25kilograms of beef at a time．

However， one may be laughed at if he does this in the north． Instead， buying vegetables and meat enough for a week is usual． Also， you can buy a small amount （数量） of fruit， such as a single apple or pear， each time in the south． Shop owners even help you peel and cut them． But shop owners in the north hardly offer such service． And many fruits are sold in baskets and boxes．

The difference could be due tothe different weather．

Food can be kept for a long time in the north， as it is usually cold and dry there． Many northern Chinese have the habit of storing food， especially for the long winter． But the hot and wet weather in the south makes southern Chinese buy just enough food for one meal or one day， or else the food may go bad．
