In many ways, they are very different. But what are the differences?Hu peng of Wuhan and four friends decided to find them out. Earlier this month, they lived for a week in Caidian, a village near Wuhan. Hu and his friends went door to door in Caidian and asked the kids there lots of questions. They wanted to learn more about village kids’ everyday lives, so they asked these question like---Do your parents teach you how to do housework? How much money do you usually spend on dinner? What would you do if a thief(小偷)came into your house? They also asked 150 city kids the same questions.What’re the Differences?Last week the team gave a report to their class. There are lots of differences between children’s lives in cities and those in village. The biggest difference is independence.Hu’s team said that 60 percent of city kids couldn’t do much housework, but 90 percent of village kids could care for themselves.City kids told Hu they cared about school a lot, and they had no time for washing clothes or making their beds. Village kids said they helped their parents with housework a lot.They cooked, did some cleaning and fed animals. Hu’s team also found that village kids had less pocket money(零花钱).Manynever used computers. They played in rivers or on mountains. Some didn’t really like to make new friends.Hu and his friends said their trip gave them more self-confidence(自信)because they were doing something by themselves. But it also made a little worried because they saw they still had a lot to learn.“When we grow up, our parents can’t take care of us ,”said Hu.”We have to learn to take care of ourselves.”Shen Guangquan, one of Hu’s friends, said,”When children learn to care for themselves, they learn to do lots of things.”根据短文内容，选择正确答案( ) 1.

Zhou Yu.14, a class leader in Bao’ an Middle school in Shenzhen did not know how to make her classmates keep quiet. “It is aGreat honor(荣誉)to be a class leader, but now I find it hard to get on with my classmates,”said Zhou. “They don’t listen to me.”Many class leader face such a problem. How can we do well for both teachers and classmates?First of all, be fair to everyone. It’s natural that you like some classmates and dislike some. But when you work as a class leader , you should treat(对待)everyone in the same way.Being strict with yourself is a good way to make others trust you. ”I dress neatly(整洁的),finish all the work on time and come early every day, ”said Lu Zhongguang, 14,a class leader for studies in Lanzhou No.3 Middle School.A good class leader also needs a good personality(性格).”S mile and be happy .This makes youmuch easier to get on with your classmates.

W hen he would like to do so, he said to himself, “What shall I say to the prophet if he asks me what I did during the day?

There is a very, very spot of red at the very end of the beak, underneath. All gulls have very strong wings so that they can fly far out to sea. If a gull flies out too far, so that it is too tired to fly back to the shore, it does not get frightened, for it can sit and rest upon the waves. A seagull’s wings do not get wet because all its feathers(羽毛) have a kind of oil over them, so that when the water gets on to the feathers it just runs off again. Gulls can even sleep on the waves.Sailors(水手) know a lot about seagulls and they never kill them. When the gulls fly a long way out to sea, sailors say that it mea ns fine weather is coming. When the gulls stay near the shore, sailor s say that there will be much wind and rain, and perhaps a storm, for the gulls know more about the weather than sailors do.( )1.The seagull is a kind of_________.A. fishB. land-birdC. seabirdD. animal( )2.

A seagull does not get frightened even when it is fat away from the shore and it is too tired to fly back because it can _________.A. swim under the seaB. stay under the seaC. rest and sleep upon the wavesD. jump into the sea( )4. The water can’t make the seagull’s feathers wet because th e feathers are _________.A. thickB. longC. lightD. oily( )5. If seagulls stay near the shore, it will be _________.A. windy, rainy or stormyB. sunny and hotC. fine and warmD. freezing coldDThe Chinese were the first nation of people to use surnames (姓) about 2,5000 years ago. Western countries did not start to use them until about 1,000 years ago. Until that time, people were simply known only by their given names.In England, this was not a problem until the French invaded (入侵) in the 11th century. During this period, most English names became unpopular and only a few popular names were available, such as William, Henry, John, Robert, Richard and Thomas. Finally, people had to start taking a surname to distinguish (区分) themselves from each other. Today, everyone in English-speaking countries has a surname, but where did they come from?Father’s nameOften a son got his surname from his father by adding “s” or “son” to his father’s given name. Robertson, Williamson, Jackson, Thomson, Richardson, Roberts, Williams and Richards are all common surnames.Occupation(职业)Other surnames came from a person’s job such as Cook, Smith, Gardener, Baker, Shepherd, Taylor, Butcher or Carpenter. So the local baker may have been called Henry Baker, the local carpenter William Carpenter and the local smith Henry Smith.LocationSometimes people took names of some places for their surnames, for example, the name of their village. Often people were given the name of a physical feature (特征) near their home such as Hill, Field, Wood, Brown or Green. The man who lived by the wood might be called Jack Woo d and the man who lived on th e top of a nearby hill might be called John Hill.CharacteristicsOften, the other people in the village gave a person his surname. If a person had an unusual physical characteristic, it became pan of his name. So, a man who was unusually short might be called John Short or John Little. If he was tall, he may have been called William Tall or William Long. Other common, nicknames (绰号) were White(for grey hair), Red and Stout (meaning fat).A son or daughter might inherit (继承) a nickname as a surname even if they themselves did not share the particular characteristic. They probably disliked it but they just had to put up with (忍受)it ! Of course, over the years many of these surnames have changed slightly but many are1._____________2._____________3._____________4._____________5.________________6._____________7._____________8._____________9.______________10._______________四、词汇A．根据汉语或首字母提示拼写单词1.Everybody knows the __________(重要性)of doing exercises, but few can keep doing it.2.I changed into my sports shoes so that I could walk more __________(舒服地).
