A feature article is an in-depth(深入详尽的) report on an event or a person. It usually has an interesting opening. You get to know the idea of the article as you read.

Another kind of article is an opinion (评论) article. Usually, some famous people give their own opinions about an important issue(问题) in a fun way.2 Opinion is different from news stories that are all facts.

Be a critical(批判性的) reader:

There are advertisements in newspapers.They can provide useful information about products, places, food or jobs. Remember that people make advertisements to sell you things.

    “Budda()-like youngsters” has become the buzzwords online overnight. What is “Budda-like”?Actually,it has nothing to do with Buddhism. It's only an attitude towards life. It means one should neither be pleased by outside gains nor be saddened by personal losses. Besides, it guides a lifestyle that “it's fine to have something or not.”

The youngsters are in their 20s. Although they haven’t developed themselves into the “God” , they've learned how to live a comfortable life. The green post-90s have mixed feelings to face the unknown future. They think that they are“Budda-like youngsters” and try to let everything go. They don’t give up; they make some efforts; they take what they are given; they don’t make a change.

We are living at a fast-developing time. If we have a strong sense of competitions, we will be overtaken in grades, education backgrounds, scores, jobs and will be overtaken in our kids grades, education backgrounds, and jobs... “Budda-like” youngsters keep a casual and calm attitude towards life and get rid of the so-called “fear”. It's not that they refuse to make progress but that the pain from efforts overwhelms (压倒) the joy from gain. So, they stop considering struggle ( ) as the most important part or even the only aim in life as their parents did. Gradually, “Budda-like” becomes the weapon (武器)for the youngsters to fight against the society that doesn’t belong to them.

In fact, every generation has their own culture. It's hard to tell whether it is good or bad. People born at special time create their own culture. We don’t have to worry about it.

1.The writer mainly________ in the first paragraph.

A.expresses his worries about the Budda-like youngstery

B.shows the meaning of the words "Budda-likc youngsters

C.explains that there are Budda-like youngsters in China

D.tells us why we are living at a fast-developing time now

2.What is Budda-like youngsters’ attitude about life?

A.They want to find or win anything they want.

B.They continue regarding struggle as one aim in life.

C.They don’t mind whether they have something or not.

D.They have a strong sense of competitions in many ways.

3.Why do some post-90s become the Budda-like youngsters?

A.Because they want to get the joy form the gain

B.Because they really refuse to make any progress.

C.Because it's their way to fight against the so-calle fear.

D.Because they want to have the same life as their parents’.

    When we want to find out what the weather will be like tomorrow, we usually turn on the radio or TV. But in the time before radio and TV, people needed to forecast (预测) the weather. How did they do it? Let’s learn about two weather rhymes (押韵的诗) together.

Red sky at night, Sailor’s delight!

Red sky in the morning, Sailors take warning!

This weather rhyme was written a long time ago, but it still works today. As the sun is setting, a red sky at night usually means there are no clouds coming in from the west, a sign of good weather for tomorrow. But a red sky in the morning always means drier air is moving away to the east and moister air is moving in from the west. The moist air could bring clouds, rain and stormy weather.

When leaves show their undersides (底部), Be very certain, rain betides.

The rhyme shows us how trees forecast the weather. Tree leaves turn upside down just before it rains. In the period before a storm, strong winds can lift the leaves and show their undersides.

Animals, insects and plants are natural forecasters. When a summer storm is coming, you may notice that dogs, cows, horses, and geese grow restless (不安的) and frogs come out of their hiding places. These animals don’t have some sixth sense. Scientists think the animals can hear the low frequency (频率) sound waves made by thunderstorms many miles away.

Get outside and observe nature carefully, and soon you’ll be your own weather forecaster.

1.The underlined word “moist” can be replaced by the word “________”.

A.wet B.Cold C.warm D.clean

2.What is helpful for some animals to forecast the stormy weather?

A.Their sense of sight. B.Their sense of hearing.

C.Their sense of smell. D.Their sense of touching.

3.Which of the following is TRUE?

A.The two rhymes are both about winter weather.

B.When leaves show their undersides, it will be fine.

C.If you see a red sky in the morning, you can travel outside.

D.If you see a frog come out of its hiding place, you’d better stay at home.

4.What’s the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?

A.To introduce two famous weather rhymes to us.

B.To tell us we should read as many rhymes as possible.

C.To show us the way to observe different animals.

D.To encourage us to get close to nature and observe the weather on our own.

    Tony Bennett, the American singer recently touring Britain, can’t remember how many times he has sung his standard hit “I Left My Heart in San Francisco”. He sang it again to his audience at the London Palladium last night. “I never get tired of singing it,” he said. “I like it too much. It’s a great city and it’s a good song.” Bennett is to record a TV special with American singer Lena Home while he is here. And a new LP recorded by him in London for Philips titled “Listen Easy” will be published in June. “I like it here,” he added quietly over whiskey. “I would like to live here so many months of the year.” He already keeps a large flat in Grosvenor Square, where he is staying with his actress wife Sandie Grant and their three-year-old daughter Joanna. It has a studio where he likes to paint. Tony plans to have his first exhibition later in the year and he has already sold one picture for $4, 000. At the end of the year, Tony is to star in a musical film which has been specially written for him called “Two Bits”, an informal expression for 50 cents. It’s about an Italian immigrant (移民) who goes to America, but he becomes a failure. “In many ways it’s very close to my life the way the story has been written,” said Bennett. “My father, an Italian, was ill and died when I was nine. He always wanted me to sing, but he never lived long enough to be a part of my success.” The film is to be made by Italy’s top director Vittoria De Sica.

A.Bennett’s favorite song but it’ s not very popular
