Find a Job This Summer This summer there are things that students can do to earn some pocket money or to help others. Also, many programs are offered by provincial government and its partners to help students find summer jobs. Here are a few ideas. Deliver Newspapers Teenagers can deliver newspapers—usually you ride a bike around a neighborhood and leave the newspaper at each house. Normally you have to have your own bike—and you have to get up early too, because people want their newspapers to read with their breakfast. If you are 15-18 and return to school this fall, you can find jobs of this kind. Wash Cars It's crazy for adults to drive to an expensive car wash when they can get a teenager to do the job for less money. Wash the car well and carefully and people will want you to do it again. Then you've got customers! Give Older People a Hand Lots of older people are happy for teenagers to help them carry their shopping or do small things for them, like washing or keeping them company (陪伴). You earn money or not, and people in the neighborhood get your help. Job Programs If you are a student living in certain communities of the province, you are lucky. There are programs that provide four weeks of paid jobs along with training. After that, you can start and run your own summer business, and you have a chance of winning awards of up to $1000. Go to the government website to learn more about these programs. People under 25 could build skills, find a job or start businesses all year round. They are all great ideas. Just choose one of them to make some money. Then spend it or save it. But don't forget it's important always to tell an adult where you are going. 1.What is special about Deliver Newspapers? A.It requires one to get up early. B.It needs patience and strong body. C.It offers help to neighbors. D.It gives training before work. 2.Which one provides training? A.Deliver Newspapers. B.Wash Cars. C.Give Older People a Hand. D.Job Programs. 3.What can you learn from the passage? A.It's hard for teenagers to find jobs. B.The elders don't want help from teenagers. C.Washing cars is the best choice for teenagers. D.Whatever you want to do, safety comes first.

Last week, some German parents who took their kids out of school early were stopped by the police at the airport. The police were making reports on students who didn't have permission (许可) to miss school. Like many places, it is against the law to skip (不参加) school in Germany. Children over the age of 9 can't miss classes without permission from the school. But during busy travel time, some parents take their children out of school early to save money on vacations. People can often save a lot of money on flights and hotels by going at a different time than others. Last weekend was the beginning of an important holiday period in Germany. People in charge of the schools asked the police to check and make sure that students weren't leaving for vacations before they were allowed to. Police officers at three German airports looked for families with school-aged children. When they found them, the police pulled the families out of lines to talk with them. They wanted to find out if the parents had permission for the children to be out of school. If the children did not have permission, the police reported the families to their schools and to the government. In all, the police reported about 20 families. These families will have two weeks to show that it was okay for their children to miss school. If they can't, they may have to pay as much as $1,200 as a fine (罚款), or receive some other punishment. Germany is not the only place where parents have to pay fines if their children miss school. Many other countries and many of the states in the U.S. have similar laws. The good news is that the families were allowed to go on vacation after they talked to the police. But they might have a big bill waiting for them when they get back. 1.Why do some German parents take their children out of school early during busy travel times? A.They can spend more time with their children. B.Their children will study by themselves. C.They want to save money. D.Their children can take online courses. 2.In Paragraph 4, police officers at three German airports wanted to ______. A.find students who skipped school without permission B.give punishment to the students there C.take students back to school D.wait for school managers 3.Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A.Laws on Vacations in Germany B.Give Your Family a Perfect Vacation C.Don't Skip School in Germany D.Punishment Goes to Families 4.Where does this text probably come from? A.A newspaper. B.A science report. C.A travel guide. D.A textbook.

Maybe you should sit down before you read this. It's a little frightening. Your sitting may be killing you. Health experts say the U.S. adult now sits about 6.5 hours a day. That is up about an hour a day compared to 2007. The news is even worse for teens. They sit eight hours each day. The information was put out by the National Center for Health Statistics. It has collected the numbers for the past 16 years. It is worried about what it has found. Research shows that people who are not active can get sick. Their bones get weaker. They burn fewer calories (卡路里). That makes them more likely to put on too much weight. They might even get diabetes (糖尿病). They are at risk for high blood pressure and heart problems, too. Some experts also think sitting too much can influence how your blood moves through your body and how well your body fights off illness. Being active helps in lots of ways. It can make you happier, burn more calories and give you more energy. It can also help you sleep better. About 60% of people in the U.S. watch at least two hours of TV each day. That number has stayed about the same in recent years. Computers are the biggest reason for more hours spent sitting. Computer use outside of work or school has gone up for all age groups. Now, 50% of adults spend at least an hour of their free time on a computer each day. That is up from 29% in 2003. About 53% of teens now spend at least an hour of free time on computers. So do 56% of kids. As many as 1 in 4 people who use computers use one for three hours or more outside of work and school. So get up, take some breaks and go outside. You might save your life by doing outdoor activities. 1.The text is especially helpful for those who care about ______. A.their body shape B.their home comforts C.their health D.their food 2.Being active can help people ______. A.bum more calories B.forget their pressure C.get sick D.treat heart problems 3.What is the text mainly about? A.Computers are causing health problems. B.Too much sitting is influencing our health. C.Being more active is good for you and me. D.Sitting means killing. 4.Which one of the following is most probably to be discussed next? A.The cause of diabetes. B.Introduce some outdoor activities. C.Give some examples of losing weight successfully. D.List some disadvantages of playing computer games.
