Have you ever entered a tropical rainforest（热带雨林）？Rainforests make up only a small part of the Earth's surface，about six percent，but there are more kinds of tees than any other area in the whole world.
Tropical rainforests are in Africa，Asia，Central and South America，Australia，and on the Pacific islands.The largest tropical rainforest is the Amazon（亚马逊）Rainforest in South America，which covers 1.2 billion acres，or almost five million square kilometres.The second largest rainforest is in Western Africa.
Rainforests provide us with many things.In fact，the Amazon Rainforest is the "lungs of our planet" because it produces 20%of the world's oxygen （氧气）.One fifth of the world's fresh water is also found in the Amazon Rainforest.Furthermore，one half of the world's species of animals，plants and insects live in the Earth's rainforests.80% of the food we eat first grew in the rainforest.25%of the drugs we take when we are sick are made of plants that grow only in rainforests.Some of these drugs are even used to fight and cure cancer.
There are four different levels of trees in a rainforest.The forest floor is the lowest layer full of animal life and receives the least amount of light.The under storey is the dark，cool environment under the leaves but over the ground.The canopy layer is the upper parts of most of the trees.The emergent layer contains a small number of very tall trees.
These different parts of a rainforest exist together to create an ecosystem for many animals，plants and human beings.

I came to the United States from Africa to live with my uncle Jim in Maryland.One year later，I lost my sight because of a serious illness.
Jim told me not to go out.He worried I would get lost or hit by a car.But I was dogged.I told him I'd pay attention.I believed I'd succeed.I must succeed.I must put my will into action.I dreamed of being a broadcaster.
Then a neighbor told me that a public library in Washington D.C.was offering a free course，specially designed for blind people，This was an important chance for me.
But how would I map my way？I knew that the American singer Ray Charles，also blind，got around on his own without a cane （手杖）.His secret was to count steps.But I couldn't seem to do that way.Instead I developed my imagination.sensing the layout （布局）of places I Visited and taking notes of landmarks in my mind.
At first，I would have to stop to imagine and map a new space in my mind，The next time I visited that place，I'd use that to find the way.Today.I am used to doing it，But I've still lost my way many times.I'd have to swallow my pride to ask for help，not thinking what others think or say about me.
Sometimes I'd be down and I'd consider giving up.Perhaps my uncle was right.Maybe I'd stay home and wait until someone came to help.On those days when I lost my way，I'd go to bed with a bad feeling.▲.I had e strong wish 10 bear blindness and be successful，and that was usually enough to get me out of bed the next day and try again.
Along the way I learned to be patient with myself and realized that asking for help didn't diminish （贬低）me in any way，I've got three academic degrees so far.
Today，I'm a reporter and broadcaster.I've achieved my dream.
Yes，I've lost my way many times and found it again.Yes，I've come close to being hit by a car but never bee hit by one.When people ask， "Aren't you afraid to be out alone？" the answer to me is clear；I would face danger and find happiness instead of staying home and being unhappy.

Everybody enjoys acts of kindness.But can you explain why？Some people think kindness is something out of love and care，while others believe it is just a tool that we use to become more popular.But research shows that being kind can activate （激活）an area of the brain called Striatum.Research also shows that kindness improves people's mood （情绪）.But why and how does it happen？Here are a number of different ways.
Being kind can make someone smile.If you see yourself smile in a situation，people around may be smiling，too.This is specially true for your close friends and family .A kind act makes someone who is sad feel better. Itcan also make ourselves fee good.So why not set off that chain（链条）of good feelings to people around？
Secondly，being kind starts or develops a social connection with others.Kind acts like buying someone a present make friendships stronger.Research has shown that spending money on others may help you get a stronger feeling of happiness than spending it on yourself.Similarly，charities（慈善）also open up new circles of people to connect with someone on the other side of the world.
In another recent research，even children in their first year of secondary school know how being kind makes them feel happy.If one person is kind，he or she makes others in the group kind.It also lifts everyone's spirits.Imagine that you make cakes for the office and it makes others do it each month.Then you're getting cakes a lot more days than providing them.
The story doesn't end here.Being kind may improve your mood，but research has also shown that if you're in a good mood，you can act much more kindly.This makes it a wonderful two﹣way relationship，doesn't it？

The sound from Miranda's alarm，clock（闹钟）would not stop.Miranda reached over.and stopped the noise ringing in her room.The action brought her，a few minutes of peace and quietness.

①Animal behavior（行为）is an interesting and attractive study.Scientists research the ways animals use to look for food.They study how animals protect themselves from their predators，and which animals kill other animals for food.All of this helps us understand how useful animals can be.
②Each country or culture raises some animals for food.In the United States，people mainly eat meat from cows，chickens and pigs.In other countries，people might raise sheep or buffalo for meat.These differences come in part from weather and other environmental conditions.People around the world eat all kinds of fish and shellfish from oceans and rivers.In some countries，people don't always choose some animal groups，such as dogs，for food while in other countries such animals may become people's favorite food.

For as long as we can remember，one of the most popular ways parents use to punish their children has been the "time out".
It seems that it is a good idea：the child sits on his own to reflect（反思）on what he has done.Then，when the time is up，he will apologize and learn from the mistake.
However，just because it's something that's been done for years，that doesn't mean it is the right thing to do.In fact，very often，children don't sit nicely and think about what they've done.Instead，they need to be told a few （or many）times to go back to their places and stay quiet.They're not reflecting on why they are in the "time out" at all.More likely than not，they're probably just really angry，and 'so' are the parents.In the end，both the parents and the children make each other unhappy，or even angry.
What can parents do to change this situation？You may have already heard of things like peaceful parenting（育儿）and gentle parenting.These focus on the relationship between parent and child through building trust and love.So，instead of starting a "time out"，try something called "time in".A "time in" needs both parent and child to stay close until both get calm.After that，the parent，and child can discuss what happened and solve the problem together.If the child can make changes，everyone can then move on.
As we all know，punishment and violence（暴力）seldom work and will never teach the.children what the right way to act is.A "time in" can be the great time for the children to learn through mistakes，Kids learn how to build their emotional and social skills through difficult situations.So，instead of punishing them for acting their age，we can use chances to teach and guide them to a place of learning.

| A． |

| A． |
is becoming more popular |

should be parents' first choice |

takes too much time |
（3）When a child has done something wrong，the writer suggests that .
| A． |

| B． |
parents try something called "time in" instead of "time out" |
| C． |
the child say sorry to his or her parents and learn from mistakes |
| D． |

A small man looked at the long line and tried to make his way to the （3） （前面）.The crowd became angry and people started shouting at him.They （4） （推）him in order to force him back to the end of the line.（5） （尽管）the people in the crowd were angry，still the man tried walking to the door a second time.Many people near the door were （6） （更强壮的）than him but he still made it.
"Hey!"someone shouted in the crowd. "Is that you （7） （又，再）？When will you learn to wait in line？""They got him to the back of the line and three big （8） （女士）said they would watch him and stop him going forward. "That will make him think twice!"they thought.
The small man（9） （摇动）his head. "This is too much for me to deal with!"he said.He wanted to open the store，but he thought that it would serve these rude（10） （顾客）right if he went home and didn't open the store at all that day!
You may study differently from your friends，but your study habits are not wrong!
Kelly and Maria are best friends with a lot in common.They love doing things together，such as going to movies and concerts，shopping，or just sitting at a small cafe.Since they take a lot of the same school subjects，they would love to study together，but they find this impossible.Their working styles are so completely different that they can't be in the same room while they are studying!
Kelly would like to study in a clean，open space，while Maria works best with books，papers and other things around her.Kelly prefers to study in a totally silent room，but Maria loves to play music or even have the TV on.Kelly can sit for hours without moving，and often gets all her homework done in one sitting.Maria，however，is always getting up，and says that she thinks best when she's on the move.
You might be asking yourself：which way of studying gets better results？Many people believe that a silent，tidy setting（环境）is the way to go，▲.Some research has even shown that outside noise and untidiness help some people focus（聚焦）their attention，because it makes them form a "wall" in their mind around what they are doing and improves their focus.
So，if you're a student who chooses to study while sitting at a table in a busy shopping center，don't worry about it.If you work in total silence，that's OK，too.Judging from Kelly 's and Maria's study habits，the best way to study is the way that works for you.In their very different ways，both of them do well in school，and both finish their work within the required time as well.

The natural world is colorful with humans，plants and animals showing different colors.
Human skin can be many different colors and it changes.with the sun，our feelings or our health for example.This is because of pigments（色素），which reflect light and make what the eye sees as colors.So，when we feel excited or angry，our heart can send more blood to the face and the pigments in the skin become red.This is why we have the expression that someone. "sees red"when they are angry.
Plants also have pigments.Color is important for them to live on.The bright colors of flowers catch the attention of insects（昆虫），which then carry their pollen（花粉）from one flower to another.Bees can see colors we cannot，and they follow these to the inside of the flower.Without bees visiting flowers in this way，many plants would die out.
Animals also use color for their own need.They protect themselves with different colors so as not to be seen by predators.The snowshoe hare for example，a type of wild rabbit，changes color with seasons for this reason.During summer it is a brown color，and in winter it is white so that it can hide in the snow.However，some animals use color as a warning to make predators stay away.Bright colors such as yellow and red are often used in this way.Nature，however，is very clever，and predators also use colors to attract（吸引）the animals they feed on..
So，we can see that there may be many different reasons and uses for colors in the natural world.Some uses of color in nature remain unknown；but one thing is for sure，color not only makes our planet beautiful but it is also necessary for our planet to live on.
