Here are some of the findings of a survey about hopes and dreams, in which thousands of students across China took part.What are the hopes of teenagers We received different answers to the question. It seems that some students would like to start work as soon as they can, so that they can help offer their parents better lives. Other students hope to continue to study after they finish school and to go to university. Although money is important, many teenagers want to do jobs they like. According to the survey, the most popular choice of job is computer programming.What are the dreams of teenagers Teenagers have all kinds of dreams. Some are more realistic 现实的than others. For example, many students would like to be volunteers ifBeijing could hold the World Cup, maybe working as translators or tour guides. And many students dream of taking a trip to every corner of the world one day.Less realistic dreams are also common. Quite a few students dream of becoming famous, perhaps famous sports people or singers. Some students would like to go on exciting trips. One student would love to sail 航行across the Pacific Ocean 太平洋. And then there are dreams that there is no possibility for students to achieve. Three students would like to be able to fly.It is clear that teenagers have similar hopes. It seems that most students hope to have a good education and find a good job.

Everyone knows that water is very important for keeping healthy. But how much water should you drink each day?

On a hot day, people need to drink more water than on a cold day. It also depends on the food we eat. Some food has a lot of water in it, such as fruit and vegetables. How much water do you need each day? It is hard to say. You should drink when you are thirsty.BThere is a new plan in England to teach children well. Many English children do not know about different parts of their own country. They only know about the city or town where they live. So the British government has asked all children to learn about different parts of their country. They havemade a new book about the different parts of England. It is for children to read.

Some are large and beautiful, and some are no more than tiny green or greyish green plants partly dried out, living on dead trees and fallen branches.All know that orchids need neither earth nor decayed leaves and look upon it as the most troublesome of all plants to grow. Many people fancy that orchids live only in hot, damp jungles and are ever green. But from the tropics (热带的) to the land of snow and ice, from sea level to high mountain top-orchids may be found in all conditions. Even as far north as Sweden and Norway, there are many kinds of wild orchids.The information that orchids can be grown in warm houses and glass houses is not new. The orchid house where the plants are grown has been specially made for them, with its temperature controlled by artificial heating. When in flower, these plants are a beautiful sight.It is said that there used to be an Englishman who grew orchids in the ice-house. He made the conditions suit the plants, just as the person who has an orchid room in the house.One kind of orchid has such a strong dislike for water that it likes to grow in a small basket so that the roots can get the air. Different kind of orchids have different temperature requirements. Some like it hot and some like it cold. Most of them like a certain amount of light throughout the year.52. What is the largest family of flowering plants in the globe？A. Flowering plants.B. The orchid.C. The smallest plants.D. The largest plants.53. Which of the following is true according to the first paragraph？A. Only beautiful orchids live on trees.B. Orchids need not things common to most plants.C. Orchids often grow on grassy land.D. Some orchids can live anywhere in the world.54. What kind of condition is needed while growing orchids in warm houses？A. Light provided by the sun.B. The plants like it cold.C.
