It turns around a make-believe line through its center. We call this make-believe line the earth’s axis （地轴）. The two ends of the earth’s axis ar e called its poles. It makes the earth twenty-four hours travel around its axis once.We look at the sun and say it “rises” and travels across the sky, but the sun doesn’t really do so. It is the turning of the earth which makes us feel as if the sun were moving across the sky. We can’t see that the earth is moving because everything else on the earth is turning with us. As the earth turns around every twenty-four hours, first one haft faces the sun and then the other half. When our haft of the earth is facing the sun, we say it is day. When our half is away from the sun, we say it is night. It is the turning of the earth that tells us when to go to bed and when to get up.1. What’s the meaning of the phrase “a make-believe line? ”A. It’s a line that we can’t believe.B. It’s a line that we can’t see.C. It’s a line that anyone can make.D. It’s a line that we can make and believe.2.

In the 1500s, men were experimenting （试验）with cameras that made images（像）. But it was not until the early 1800s that man found a way to make the pictures permanent（永久的）. Even then, photography was a new field. Most families had their pictures taken by a photographer. People did not own cameras because taking pictures and developing the film were too difficult.In 1884, George Eastman changed photography by inventing a kind of film fit for small cameras. Because the new film was easy to use, many people began to buy cameras. When they had used up their film, people returned their cameras to the factory. There, the film was developed, and pictures were printed. Then more film was put into the cameras, which were sent back to the owners, along with their pictures.Eastman’s camera made it easy to take pictures. Today’s cameras are even easier to use, and people can put in their own film. Photography has become a growing hobby.There are also many new jobs in the field of photography. One of the most important kinds of work is in news reporting. Newspapers, magazines, and television .all need pictures to tell their stories.Photographers help scientists by taking pictures through microscopes and telescopes. Deep-sea divers take pictures of ocean plants and animals, while astronauts take their cameras into space. Man finds new uses for the camera every day.1.

Once he flew from the U.S. to his hometown in Italy to see someone at home. The plane made one-hour stop to get oil at Kennedy Airport of New York. As he thought he had arrived home, Mr. Scottie got off the plane. He thought he was in Rome. When nobody was there to meet him, Mr. Scottie thought maybe they were held up by heavy traffic. While looking for their address, Mr. Scottie found that the old “Rome” had changed a lot. Many old buildings were replaced by high modern ones. He also found that many people spoke English instead of Italian and that many streets were written in English. Mr. Scottie knew very little English, so he asked a policeman the way to the bus station. He happened to meet a policeman who was also born in Italy and answered him in the same language. After twelve hour’s traveling round on a bus, the driver handed hi m over to a second policeman. He asked the policeman why the Rome police employed so many people as policemen speaking English instead of Italian. Mr. Scottie did not believe he was in New York when he was told so. To get him on a plane back to San Francisco, he was sent to the airport in a police car with sirens （警报）on. “Look,” said Scottie to his interpreter （翻译）, “I know I’m in Italy.

Reading :Many people believe that French people are very different from Americans. This is certainly true where eating habits are concerned （有关的）! According to a report by the World Health Organization, each year French people eat four times more butter than Americans. The French also eat twice as much cheese! In addition, they eat more vegetables, potatoes, grain and fish. Yet, despite（不管）the fact that they eat larger amounts of these foods, the French take in about the same number of calories each day as Americans. （French and American men consume（消耗）about 2,500 calories each day on average.French and American women take in about 1,600 calories daily.How can this be? If the French are eating more of certain types of foods, shouldn’t this add up to more calories? And why are so few French people overweight compared to Americans? The answer is that Americans consume 18 times more refined （精制的）sugar than the French, and drink twice as much whole milk!Although many Americans believe the French end up each meal with gooey（胶粘的）desserts, this just isn’t so. Except for special occasions, dessert in a typical French home consists of fresh fruit or cheese. Many American families, on the other hand, like to end their meals witha bowl or two of ice cream or another sweet treat.1. Name six types of foods French people eat more of each year than Americans.2. How many calories does the average Frenchman consume each day?3. How much whole milk does the average French person drink compared to the average American?4. How much more refined sugar do Americans eat than the French?5.
