Having fun with art on Fridays ——Keeley Oak, an eighth-grader, paints at Art Night. 美国学校打造星期五艺术之夜。
Friday night is a good time to have fun as the week comes to an end. But Tri-City United School in Minnesota, US, took this to a new level. The school turned Friday into Art Night. Art Night ran from 5 to 10 pm every Friday. It allowed students to get creative with paint, clay (陶土) and temporary tattoos (暂时性纹身). The members of the high school ARTeam came up with the idea. Thirty-six students registered (报名) for this activity. They were divided into three groups for 75-minute sessions (授课时间) of painting, pottery (陶器) making and henna (指甲花) design, with a pizza break in between. At the end of the night, students could take their work home. Out of the three sessions, henna was the most popular. It’s the art of making beautiful tattoo patterns and has been practiced for more than 5,000 years in Southeast Asia. And it has recently become more popular in the US. The art teacher Aimee Fisher traveled to India last year and learned henna. Then, she taught students how to do it at Art Night. “I’m really excited to do henna,” student Sarah Colwell told Le Center Leader, a local newspaper. “I’ve gotten it done on me, but I have never done it by myself.” In fact, this is just the beginning of their art journey. From March 3 to April 9, they will have their annual (每年的) student Art Show display at the Arts and Heritage Center in Montgomery. Students are in charge of (负责) the show by themselves. 1. Which of the following about Art Night is NOT true? A. It was held on Friday. B. Students can do creative arts. C. A teacher started the activity. D. There were 36 members. 2. Which was the most popular? A. painting B. pottery making C. henna design D. making pizza 3. According to the story, _____. A. henna is the art of making tattoo patterns B. henna came from South Africa C. henna has a long history in the US D. Sarah thinks henna is difficult to learn 4. The story mainly talks about _____. A. a special art B. a student art activity C. an art school D. an art show - 2 - 九年级英语每周阅读训练(2016.03.28)
Fun holiday for a very long number ——数学迷们，千万别错过圆周率日哦！
On March 14, math and science lovers around the world celebrated a special day: Pi Day. Pi is equal to about 3.14, but the number goes on endlessly. It is sometimes written in Greek, π. With the help of computers, mathematicians have been able to calculate pi out to over a trillion (万亿) decimal (小数的) places, but there is still no end to the number. This makes pi puzzling, even for the most famous scientists and mathematicians. Pi Day is celebrated around the world on March 14, since how we write this date, 3/14, looks just like the number pi. For some people, the appeal of Pi Day goes far beyond math and science. Pi shows up throughout popular culture. You can see it in movies, comics, music and more. “In modern movies, any time the filmmaker wants to evoke (产生) a sense of mystery, often the symbol pi is used,” says David Blatner, Jewish American writer of The Joy of Pi. People also love trying to memorize the digits (数字) of pi and competing against others to see who can remember the most. Many teachers hold class contests to see how many numbers their students can memorize. The Guinness World Record for reciting the most digits of pi is held by Lü Chao of China, who successfully recited pi out to nearly 67,890 decimal places. Above all, Pi Day is about having fun with the number. People celebrate Pi Day by eating or throwing pie and with fun pi-related games and activities. This year, Princeton, New Jersey, held a birthday party for Albert Einstein whose birthday also falls on March 14. There was also a “Walk a Pi Event” where people walked 3.14 miles together. Just like the number itself, the possibilities for Pi Day are truly endless. 1. The following about Pi Day is true EXCEPT _____. A. it’s on March 14 B. it’s a day just for scientists C.
