Do you live in a city? Do you know how cities began? Long long ago, the world had only a few thousand people. These people moved from one place to another. They moved over the land, hunting (打猎) animals for food. No one knows how or when these people learned about growing food. But when they did, their life changed. They did not have to look for food any longer. They could stay in one place and grow it. People began to live near one another, so the first village was established. Many people came to live in the villages, and these villages became even larger. When machines appeared, life in the villages changed again. People built factories. More and more people lived near the factories. The cities began. Today, it’s strange that some people are moving back to small villages. Can you tell me why? 根据短文内容，判断正(T)误(F)。 1.

A man came home from work late, tired, to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door. “Daddy, how much money do you make each hour?” “If you must know, I make $20 each hour.” “Oh,” the little boy answered, with his head down. He thought for a moment, looked up and said, “Daddy, could you lend me $10?” The father was furious, “If you asked for the money to buy a toy or some other rubbish, then go straight to your room and think about why are you so selfish (自私)！” The little boy went to his room with no words and shut the door. After a short while, the father calmed down, and started to think, “Maybe he really needs to buy something and he didn’t really ask for money very often.” So he went to the little boy’s room. “Sorry！Maybe I was too strict with you just now.” said the man, “Here’s $10.” “Oh, thank you Daddy!” he said happily.

Cars are lots of fun, but they could also be dangerous. We have to be careful when we drive them or ride in them. It’s always a good idea to put on your seat belt (安全带) when you’re in a car. Why? Think about this example: You put an egg on a skateboard and give it a push. If the skateboard hits a stone, it will stop, but the egg won’t. It will fly through the air, hit the ground and break. Now, think what would happen if you tied the egg to the skateboard. When the skateboard hits a stone, the egg won’t go flying; it will stay safely on the skateboard. Volvo, a famous Swedish carmaker, was the first to use seat belts in 1849. Air bags are also very important for car safety, because sometimes a seat belt isn’t enough. If the car is going really fast and runs into something, seat belts could even hurt the people who wear them. Most new cars have air bags in front of and next to the seats. When a car hits something, its air bags will come out quickly in less than one second to keep the people inside safe. 1.The passage mainly tells us ______. A．two important ways to keep safe in cars B．how air bags work to make cars safe C．how seat belts work to make cars safe D．why we must tie the egg to the skateboard 2. The writer gives the example of the egg to ______. A．tell us that eggs are easy to break B．show how to wear a seat belt C．show why it’s important to wear a seat belt in a car D．tell us what a skateboard is 3. Seat belts can make us safer because ______. A．we are interested in them B．they can stop us from hitting other cars C．they can help us stay safely on the seats D．they are made of strong materials 4. Air bags are important for cars because ______. A．they are made of plastic B．they can also help us to keep safe in a car C．they can keep cars running slowly D．they’re put in front of and next to the seats 5. Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage? A．When a car hits something, its air bags will come out a few minutes later. B．It won’t be dangerous if there are seat belts or air bags in a car. C．Now most of new cars still have only one air bag. D．Volvo was the first to use seat belts.

阅读短文，根据内容填写信息卡。 Nowadays, there are more and more TV talent shows. They are very popular all over China. These talent shows give everyone an opportunity to show off their talents. For some lucky people, these talent shows may make them famous, and can even make them rich. However, there are also many bad sides. First, some young people just imitate (模仿) their favorite stars. They may forget about their own styles. Second, young people spend too much time on such TV shows. They always dream of being a star. So they spend less time on their studies. In my opinion, these shows are social activities. Young people can take part in these activities to get social experience. But they should know that the chance of becoming famous is very small for most people. They should know that they should work hard at something more important, their school work. In short, you can do what you like, but you should know what is important and what is not. Information Card
