Almost everyone is 59 to a party. It is nice to be with 60 when you say goodbye to the old year. The people at the parties 61 dancing and singing. Most of them look 62 . They are wearing paper hats 63 making noise. It is 64 close to midnight now and everyone is stopping to watch the clock. At exactly midnight everyone cheers. A new year is beginning. Everyone is hoping 65 a very good new Year.
For many young 66 , like my English 67 son and daughter, this is a time of the year to think about the future. They make a list 68 things that they hope to do. They promise to stop smoking, to lose weight, to save 69 money or to do something else that is good. They call these promises resolutions (决心做的事). Some people remember their resolutions all year long, 70 many others forget them. 2003
fresh city breath stop mean ill though know sleep eye and out we be in Villagers are more healthy than people who live in towns. One reason for this is that country air is 56 than the air in smoky 57 . The villager is 58 fresh clean air all day in the fields, but the air the townsman is breathing is always full of smoke and dust. We cannot live without air.

Then our heads begin to ache, 66 the longer we stay the worse we feel. How nice it is when we get 67 into the fresh air outside!
We must, therefore, keep 68 windows open, so that air in our rooms is always fresh and 69 as much as we can 70 the open air. For people who breathe bad air for a long time often get very ill and die of lung diseases.

A lot of people don”t have the time to shop and cook and clean up 56 a meal. Today, fast food is 57 cheap, which makes it even more attractive. And it is everywhere-not only in the United States 58 around the world. Now, 59 , there is a group of people who would like to see us stop 60 so much fast food.

We cut down and burn 56 and send gases into the air with our cars and factories. Can we do anything about it? Sure. We may 57 be leaders or scientists but we can play our part in 58 the planet. Here are two ideas. Bike, don't ride to school Do you 59 to school by bus or by bike? If you bike, you are doing 60 for the Earth.

Wash the green way
Do you help your mom and dad wash clothes? Then wash them 63 an energy-saving way. A recent study by Cambridge University found 64 60 percent of the energy used on a piece of clothing is 65 in washing and drying it. Over ita lifetime, a T-ahirt can send up to 4 kilograms of carbon dioxide into the air. 66 you wash your own clothes, wash them in cold or warm water to save energy, but not hot water. Wash your clothes when 67 fill up the machine. Use the most energy-saving machine you can find. Some new ones use as 68 as one-fourth of the energy of older machines. When they're clean, dry 69 clothes the natural way, by hanging them 70 a line rather than putting them in a dryer. In all, you can cut the carbon dioxide used in washing by 90 percent. 2008 like before open big you instead watch too be tooth Hot Tips for a Good night’s Sleep If you’re tired, you’d better not stay up late.

for my 2 birthday present. The shop wanted $ 20 for a special design 3 a T-shirt, so I decided to do it 4 . I bought a white cotton T-shirt 5 $6 and some paints, and I painted a lion on the front. My brother loved it! Painting T-shirts is great fun. You 6 be a great artist, you can just paint shapes and lines. The T-shirts are the 7 expensive part of my hobby. Also you have to use special fabric paints and you need to buy good quality brushes. I love my hobby 8 I can make T-shirts that no-one else has. I give a lot of them away 9 presents to my family and friends. Sometimes, I sell them. Since I started, I’ve 10 about 60 T-shirts and each one is different.

Some of us 5 have seen them in
cartoons. Actually, you can go to see them all in a theme park. Now, there are four 6 Disneyland amusement parks all over the world. Two are in the United States, one is in Tokyo, and the 7 is in France. There are not only some amusement attractions there , 8 also many specials with

First, knowing why you are reading- what you are reading to find out – will often help 63 to know whether to read fast or 64 .
Second, some things should 65 read slowly all the time. Examples are directions for making of doing something; math problems, science and history books, which are full of important information. You must read such things slowly to remember each important thing and 66 each important idea.
67 , some things should be fast all the time. Examples are easy stories for enjoyment, news, letters from friends, bits of news 68 hometown paper, telling what is happening to friends and neighbors.
At last, in some of your readings, you must change your speed from fast to slow and slow to fast, as you go 69 . You will need to read certain pages fast and then slow down and do more careful reading when you come to important ideas 70 should be remembered.

Lu's school and many 64 middle schools in Shanghai have been giving junior high students lessons 65 AIDS. Students watch videos and listen to teachers to learn about AIDS.
\"We watched videos in the morning about 66 the disease was and how it 67 from people to people,\" said 15-year-old Cheng Yilu from Weiyu. \"Teachers gave lessons after that. They even used cartoons 68 us examples.\" Many students in Beijing 69 something about AIDS since a few years ago. \"It is necessary (必要的) to help kids know basic facts about the disease,\" said Li Xiaowei from Beijing No. 65 Middle School. \"With the knowledge, kids can stay away from AIDS.\" Li has been teaching kids about AIDS since the 1990s.
Now many middle schools in our country give juniors six 70 of AIDS

The study followed 62 than 12,000UK adults for 57 years, and found that those with more missing teeth were one 63 more likely to die of heart disease than those with fewer teeth missing. Dr. Nigel Carter of the British Dental Health Foundation said, ―A person’s oral (口腔)health has a major effect on the rest of the body.‖ ― People need to choose a good oral health care habit for the good of 64 wh-ole body as well as their mouth, including brushing twice a day, cutting down the amount of sweet foods and visiting the dentist regularly.

The best way to develop good saving 61 is to make saving a regular part of your life, along with spending.
Here’s the rule you should remember: save 62 spending. Whenever some money gets into your hands, take your savings out at once. Once you’ve taken away your savings, your free to spend the rest.
Here are some 63 suggestions on how to get into the saving habits from some teens. Let’s see!
Ben Sheppard, 17: Don’t carry 64 cash, if possible.
Clayton Smalley, 16: In the past, I couldn’t go into a store without buy something. But now I keep a $20 bill in my pocket 65 walking around the mall and not buying anything. Now I don’t have any urge to buy things when I go into a store. It 66 for me.
Tacy Holliday, 14: When you buy something, only use dollar bills. If you buy a magazine for $3.25 and you pay for it 67 a $5 bill, you’ll get back $1.25 in change. Put the dollar back into your pocket and 68 the 75 cent alone. Only spend the bills, not the coins. Put all the coins in a jar for savings. That way you’ll always 69 a little.
Donald Hoang, 13: I put my money in a bank 70 of my wallet, so the money is not there. And I have to take an extra step to get it.

These are basic reasons clothes are worn, 62 people also want to look attractive and appear successful to others.
63 people only wore clothes for warmth and to cover their bodies, most clothing would be simple and cheap. In many countries, however, clothing is sometimes very expensive. The main reason 64 this is not the cost of the fabric(织物)or the cost of 65 the clothes. The clothes are expensive because of fashion.
66 businessmen, for example, often wear very expensive suits, shirts and ties. Sometimes they pay 67 of dollars for a suit and thousands of dollars for a tie. It’s still just a suit and tie but they pay prices of famous names of the designer. A suit costing much 68 would be just as warm and would cover the wearer’s body just as 69 .
Fashion is constantly changing, which means that people who want to be fashionable have to buy new clothes. Some people have closets full of clothes that have hardly been 70 out but are no longer in fashion. Being fashion, therefore, can be a very expensive pastime!

Scientists have found out that radiation(辐射) is the greatest danger to spacemen in space. When spacemen are working in space, they are in danger of radiation from the sun and other stars, which is bad for their health. The damage(危害) done by radiation won't be discovered until their children or _64___ grandchildren are born. Some special medicine __65__a little, but no really effective medicine has been found .
Space __66___ is also thought a great danger to spacemen. It's reported that there are 9,000 man-made things flying in space. About 30% of these are satellites, 10% are spaceships, and the rest are space junk. An explosion(爆炸) in 1996 made a cloud of 300,000.fragments(碎片), each at least 4mm in size, and even a small piece of these
knocked against a spaceship window and did some damage. Scientists are watching and reporting any possible danger all the time. They are working on _67_____ ways to do with space junk.
_68_____ space is really dangerous, it interests everyone on the earth. In the near future, it may become __69____for people to spend a few days in a space hotel. We may even choose to leave the earth and live in space in a few years. So we should care for space and do __70____ to help improve the space environment.

Can you slow global 63 ? Sure! You and your family can take steps to cut the amount of carbon dioxide(二氧化碳) that is sent out into the air.
It’s time for all of us to do something to save the earth. Wear used clothes
Wearing your brother’s , sister’s or dad’s old T-shirts 64 you save the energy. Change your light bulbs.
Use energy-saving light bulbs. And don’t 65 to turn off the lights when you leave a room, and turn off your television and computer when they are not in use! Ride the bus. Taking a bus 66 a lot of oil every year. Say no to plastic bags.
The next time your parents go to the market, ask 67 to use baskets. Open a window
Don’t use the air conditioner, and let some fresh air 68. When you have to use the air conditioner, set the temperature 69 in summer and lower in winter to save energy.

You don't want to work,you stay in bed, 62 very sad. What 63 us ill? It is germs(细菌). Germs are 64 . They are very small and you 65 find them with your eyes,but you can see them with a microscope. They are very small and there could be 66 of them on a very small thing.
Germs are always 67 in dirty water. When we look at dirty water 68 the microscope,we shall see them in it. So your father and mother will not let you drink dirty water.
Germs aren't found 69 in water. They are found in air and dust. If you cut your finger,if some of the dust from the floor goes into the cut(割开处),some of the germs would go into your finger. Your finger would become big and red,and you will have much pain in it. Sometimes the germs would go into all of your body,and you would have 70 everywhere.

We cut down and burn 61 and send gases into the air with our cars and factories. Can we do anything about it? Sure. We may 62 be leaders or scientists but we can play our part in 63 the planet. Here are two ideas. Bike, don't ride to school Do you go to school by bus or by bike? If you bike, you are doing 64 for
the Earth. Buses, cars, trains and planes produce a lot of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳). If you live near to your school, 65 not bike there on warm spring mornings? Or, you can simply walk to school to save energy. Wash the green way
Do you help your mom and dad wash clothes? Then wash them 66 an energy-saving way. A recent study by Cambridge University found that 60 percent of the energy used on a piece of clothing is 67 in washing and drying it. Over its lifetime, a T-shirt can send up to 4 kilograms of carbon dioxide into the air.
68 you wash your own clothes, wash them in cold or warm water to save energy, but not hot water. Wash your clothes when they fill up the machine. Use the most energy-saving machine you can find.

Is this true? We talked to one parent with teenage children to find out. Marilyn Scott Yes, sometimes it’s really difficult to live with teenagers. It isn’t only their age, but also the type of people they are. My two sons are completely 61 . Tom’s easier to live with than Harry. Harry’s a typical moody (情绪坏的)fifteen-year-old. He’s a lot 62 and more aggressive than Tom, and he isn’t as considerate. So he’s 63 harder to live with. But Harry’s got his good side, too. He’s very bright and his exam results are always better than Tom’s. Tom’s two years older than Harry, so he’s more mature and less stubborn(倔强的)than 64 brother. He is also a bit more patient and can 65 very helpful when he wants to be. 66 he’s got bigger problems at school. He’s as intelligent as Harry, but he’s much lazier and his exam results are always worse than his 67 . Harry wants to be a pilot when he leaves school, but Tom doesn’t know 68 he wants to do. 69 some ways I’m a bit more worried about Harry because he isn’t as happy as Tom.

Well, they got to the airport 64 only ten minutes left. So time was short. In that situation anyone would board the plane right away. 65 not Mr and Mrs Bumbridge. They just had to buy some flight insurance first. After all, who knows 66 will happen on a plane flight? They 67 put some coins into a machine and out came their insurance card. ―Who should get the money 68 we die? ―Mildred. ―My mother, of course,‖ her husband replied. ―We’ll post the card to her .Now quick, give me a stamp, will you?‖ he said. ―The plane is going to take off in 69 minute.‖ Bert put the stamp on the envelope, dropped it in the mailbox, and suddenly began to cry.

When they come to China, we should do something to help them enjoy 63 and like China and the Chinese people. But there are some things they not like:
1. Traffic problems: Cars park on sidewalks. Bus drivers drive so fast that they make people who are trying to cross the street 64 .
2. Queue jumping: At the post office, or even at McDonald’s, people push to the 65 of the line instead of waiting.
3. Bumping: Too many people are 66 onto buses and trains. This makes people feel terrible, and it is not safe, either. On a bus in North America, people try to make themselves 67 and they will say ―Excuse me‖ or ―Sorry‖ if they knock into someone. In China, people make themselves bigger with 68 ―Sorry‖ or ―Excuse me‖.
4. Lettering: I notice this everywhere. Some people throw rubbish onto the ground even 69 there is a rubbish bin right next to them.

One reason for the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own life.in our society, people often 63 out of the home at an early age, marry or live with people their parents have never met, and choose jobs that are 64 different from their parents.
In our society, parents often expect their children to be 65 than them. 66 , that is another reason for the division(分歧) 67 them. Often they discover that they have very _68__ in common. Finally, the speed of change in our society is another reason for it. In a 69 culture, people are valued for their knowledge, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime has to become out of date.
The young and the old seem to live in two very different 70 . For sure, the generation gap will continue to be a feature our life for some time to come.

The fast speed of light produces some strange facts. The nearest star is 66 far away that light which you can see from it 67 started to travel to you four years ago at a speed of nearly two million kilometers every minute. The light from some of tonight's started on 68 journey towards you even before you were born.

In the past 25 years, the number of the people with obesity(肥胖症) in Europe 62 doubled. Experts say that it has a lot to do with our eating habits.
Our eating habits are very important for good 63 and a strong body. Most of 64 like eating sweets and ice cream better than meat and rice. Sweets and ice cream are not bad for us if we eat them at the end of a meal. If we eat them 65 a meal, they may take away our appetite(食欲)。
It’s important for us to eat our meal at the same time each day. When we
feel 66 or excited, we may not want to eat. A long time ago, in England, some judges(法官) often decided 67 a man was telling the truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man could not swallow the bread, it 68 that he wasn’t telling the truth. A man 69 is worrying about something has difficulty in swallowing anything dry, because he 70 his appetite.

Communication is a problem for parents and children of all 62 . If it’s hard for you to communicate with your parents, don’t worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap(消除代沟)。
Don’t argue with your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can’t express 63 well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to 64 to your parents. If you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.
Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept 65 other. Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him about 66 a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on 67 days.
Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.
Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from 68 of your own. Tell your parents 69 you care about and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.
A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and 70 person. It is worth having a try!
