【題目】 Most people graduate from school and then get a job. Everyone wants a job that pays well. How much money can you make? Ask yourself these questions: What can I do? What skills do I have? Also ask yourself: How much education do I have? For most jobs, the higher your education, the higher your earning power.

In the United States, high school graduates make about $18,600 a year. If you do not finish high school, you make only $10,800 a year. You can make $7,800 more each year by staying in high school!

If you stay in school, then you can make more money. A person with a high school degree makes about $18,600 a year. If that person goes to college and gets a bachelor’s degree(學(xué)士學(xué)位), he can make $42,000. With a master’s degree (碩士學(xué)位), he can make about $53,000. If the person gets a PhD(博士學(xué)位), he can make almost $79,000 or more a year.

【題目】 There are24 solar terms (節(jié)氣) in China, and the grain rain (谷雨) is one of them. It falls on April 20 this year.

This solar term is called the grain rain because it is known for “rain” that helps the grain grow. From its name, we can guess it means a time of more rain. So if you go out in the next two weeks, you may need to bring an umbrella with you.

But this is a great time for planting crops. If you miss the time for planting during the Grain Rain, you will feel sorry later. So maybe you can try to plant some flowers or vegetables in your garden. When the spring rain falls, farmers begin to grow crops (莊稼). Farmers often say" Spring rain is as precious (珍貴的) as oil.” It brings farmers hope for a good year ahead.

There are also many interesting customs during the Grain Rain. In the northern part of China, people like to eat Chinese toon (椿芽) mixed with eggs. The food made during the grain rain tastes wonderful and is good for your stomach. In the southern part of China, the tea leaves are picked during the time. They are called Grain Rain tea, which is famous for its freshness and sweet smell.

【1】What does grain Rain mean?

【2】How long does the Grain Rain last?

【3】When do farmers begin to grow crops?

【4】What’s the old saying about spring rain in this passage?

【5】How do you like Grain Rain tea?

【題目】 When you have good friends, the best way to get to know them better is to have a sleepover(睡衣派對). A sleepover usually includes having a party and sleeping next to your good friends all night.

In the UK, friends have sleepovers very often. Some have them once every weekend or just once every month. When you want to have a sleepover with your friends, your parents can call or text your friends’ parents to ask about a suitable date. Then, you have to arrange(安排) whose house you'll stay at — your own or your friends’ house. The last step is to finish your homework before you get together with your friends so you can enjoy your time together.

There are many fun games you can play with your friends at a sleepover. You can have a water fight in the garden. You can play hide-and-seek in the house.
