Around the world, people live in homes of many shapes and sizes. In some countryside, people live together with their family in a huge house with gardens or backyards. On the other hand, the buildings in cities are usually very close together.

A home can be any kind of building- large or small. Some people even have homes on boats, in tents or in caravans that can be moved around. Caravans are mobile homes. They are towed(拖，拉) by either a car or a huge truck. Some of them are holiday homes. We can see many families staying together in these caravans.

In the past, rich and important people built strong castles to keep their families safe. The castles(城堡) were built on hill tops with high walls and some even had moats. Moats were deep and wide ditches(壕溝) filled with water. They made it difficult for enemies to attack.

Today, we have different ways of protecting our homes. Some homes are installed(安裝) with video cameras and an alarm system. These will help to alert(向……報(bào)警) home owners if someone tries to break in.

【題目】 Mr. Scott talked about colours all the time. "What a honey-yellow morning it is!" he said to his wife. His wife planted fruit and vegetables in their garden, but Mr. Scott was more interested in the leafy plants, the bushes, and even the grass that grew in the garden. "So many kinds of green," he said to her after watering all the plants. "I counted at least twenty shades of green!"

"Well done, dear," Mrs. Scott said. "Now would you please count twenty dollars and go to the supermarket for some ingredients (配料)? I want to make lunch!"

With a smile on his face, Mr. Scott left at once. He enjoyed trips to the supermarket because of all the colourful cans and boxes in it. Fruit and vegetables, too, shone in their bright skins. There was never just one colour: carrots were orange, but also had bits of yellow and brown in them. Bananas were yellow and black; apples hid oranges and purples inside their reds. Mr. Scott would walk through the supermarket and enjoy all the colours around him.

"I wish there was a store full of colours that I could spend all my time in." he sighed.

He bought everything on his wife's list and came home. When he walked into the house, Mrs. Scott noticed the sad look on his face. "What's wrong?" she asked him. "It looks like you had fun at the store. I can see that you picked out the best things."

"I did have fun in the store. So much that I wish I could have spent more time there. It's so full of colours! " Mr. Scott said.

"I see," Mrs. Scott said. "Well, cheer up, because I'm going to cook a nice lunch for us!"

The next day Mr. Scott was on his usual morning walk through the neighbourhood, saying hello to everyone, enjoying the colours of the trees and flowers. It was another day of colours!

"Good morning, Mr. Brown," he called out to one of his neighbours. He liked Mr. Brown very much, because, well, you guessed it: his name was a colour!

"Mr. Scott! Just the person I wanted to see!" Mr. Brown replied. "My wife and I are moving out of this town, and I need someone to take over my shop. You are the perfect person for the job because it's a paint shop! I need someone who knows its colours. Would you be interested?"

Mr. Scott was mad with excitement. "I will take it over right away!"

Mr. Brown was relieved when he left town, because he knew his paint shop was in good hands. Sure enough, Mr. Scott kept the paint shop open for twenty more years and got to talk about colours all day, every day.

【1】Why did Mr. Scott come home from the supermarket sadly?

A.He hated shopping in the supermarket.

B.He didn't enjoy the colours in the supermarket.

C.He didn't have enough money to buy everything on his wife's list.

【2】Why did Mr. Scott like Mr. Brown very much?

【題目】 Like you，plants need good things like food，water，and minerals in order to grow. Usually they get these important nutrients(營(yíng)養(yǎng)) from the rich soil(土壤) in which they're planted. But there's another way to grow plants that doesn't use soil. It's called hydrogenic gardening.

“Hydrogenic” means “working with water. ” In a hydrogenic garden，plants grow with their roots in water， not in dirt. The water is filled with special food for the plants that gardeners have carefully measured and prepared.

Hydrogenic plants grow quickly. In ordinary gardens，plants need time and energy to grow long roots that search the soil for food and water. In a hydrogenic garden，plants can use their energy to grow tall instead. And because there is no soil， there are no weeds and few insect pests(害蟲(chóng)). Gardeners don't need to spray(噴灑) plants with dangerous chemicals. Both the plants and the environment stay healthy.

Scientists hope that，one day，hydrogenic gardens may be able to help hungry people all over the world grow enough food-even in countries that have bad soil，or weather that is too hot，too cold，or too dry. And astronauts hope to take hydrogenic gardens with them to the spaceship they fly to Mars，so that they will always have fresh vegetables，and the fun of growing a garden without dirt.

【1】What's the meaning of the underlined word “dirt” in the second paragraph?

A.soilB.waterC.insectD.food

【2】Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?

A.Plants need water and other nutrients to grow.B.There are no weeds inhydrogenic gardens.

C.Hydrogenic plants cannot grow in too hot weather.D.Astronauts hope to take hydrogenic gardens to space.

【3】What's the passage about?

A.Plant growing.B.Space farming.C.Scientific watering.D.hydrogenic gardening.

【題目】 Many of us wish we would have longer weekend, but for about 18,000 students in Colorado, that wish is coming true. A school district outside Denver has decided to shorten its week to four days—from Tuesday to Friday, and the first school year on this new timetable just started,CBS Denver reports. It began on Tuesday, August 14, because the day students get off is everyone’s least favorite: Monday.

Although this may sound like a dream come true, it means students will have to sit though longer school days to work more for the hours they’ve lost, according to The Denver Post. So the timetable seems more crowded than ever.

The decision wasn’t made just to give students more days off, though:it had practical purpose. The district says that it will save $ 1 million by not having buses on Mondays and spending less on things like electricity and water. That means a lot to the school. However, there are different voice. Parents may pick up some the cost of this change, though, since many will now need to stay home with their kids. If they go to work, they have to find people to take care of their children.

This isn’t the first district in the state to introduce a four—day week:55 % of the state’s schools do this, but most of them are in the countryside, according to The Denver Post. Several school in Oklahoma made the some move earlier this year, and some them told CBS News Reports that more teachers wanted to teach there after the change. Most of these teachers have a lot of teaching experience. About 560 districts in timetable influence students’s ferformance.

【1】What happens to the students in Colorado?

A.They have shorter summer holidays.

B.They go to school every day.

C.They have classes only on Monday.

D.They have longer weekend.

【2】What does the underlined phrase “pick up” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A.go forB.pay forC.look forD.stand for

【3】Why do more teachers want to come to Oklahoma?

A.They would like to work here with four-day week.

B.They’ll be given more money than those in other states.

C.Students are much more money creative in class in this place.

D.Students behave better because of longer weekends.

【4】What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A.Students need to study harder to make up for the time.

B.Parents may spend more time and money on their children.

C.People in Colorado speak with one voice when facing the decision.

D.It’s not clear whether the new timetable is good for students or not.
