They like playing computer games rather than cleaning the rooms. But in Australia, Jim and Robert's mother, Mrs. Black, has good and proper methods to get their children to do housework.Here is an example.“Mom, have you worked out next week's housework? Let Jim and me choose the cards. I can't wait. It's fun!”When Robert shouted out, his mother had already put all the cards on their big table. On the cards, there are some words like these, “sweep the floor, clean your bedroom, help mom cook, wash vegetables, make beds, feed the fish, cut the wood, clean the bathroom” and many others. Jim and Robert chose two cards for each day from Monday to Friday. Then they would hang them on the weekday task board. Jim likes to clean the bathroom, so he picked up the card “clean the bathroom”. Robert loves to make the bed so he picked up his favorite card. Jim again picked up “wash vegetables” and Robert chose “feed the fish”. Soon the two boys were happy to take away all the cards.To help the children do housework, their mother thought hard and came up with this idea. Of course, the parents did the housework on the weekends and left Jim and Robert two days free.阅读短文，判断下面的句子正误，正确的用“A”表示，不正确的用“B”表示；26. From the passage we know that most children like playing computer games.27. Jim and Robert chose two cards for the weekdays from Monday to Friday.28. Jim likes to make the bed.29. Their father thought of this idea.30. The whole family did the housework on the weekends.BHealthy eating doesn't just mean what you eat, but how you eat. Here is some advice on healthy eating.Eat with others. It can help you to see others' healthy eating habits. If you usually eat with your parents, you will find that the food you eat is more delicious.Listen to your body. Ask yourself if you are really hungry. Have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty—sometimes you are just thirsty, you need no food. Stop eating before you feel full.Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. After you don't eat for the past ten hours, your body needs food to get you going. You will be smarter after eating breakfast.Eat healthy snacks like fruits, yogurt or cheese. We all need snacks sometimes. In fact, it's a good idea to eat two healthy snacks between your three meals. This doesn't mean that you can eat a bag of chips instead of a meal.Don't eat dinner late. With our busy life, we always put off eating dinner until the last minute. Try to eat dinner at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This will give your body a chance(机会) to digest most of the food before you rest for the next 8—10 hours.阅读短文，选择最佳答案。

When that proud father or mother asks you, “Well, what do you think...isn’t she beavtiful?” What are you going to say? Is this the time for the truth? Of course not!You look into that proud father’s eyes and say,“Yes, she is! She is really a beauty. She’s one in a million. She’s as beauiful as a picture.”In English, this is a white lie.

They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere(大气), because this is where the weather forms(形成). They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists(气象学家) can see the weather of any part of the world.From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty counties receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for seven days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for more than a week.42. Satellites travel .A. in spaceB. in the atmosphereC. above the groundD. above space43.
