Choosing a name for a club can be a challenge. But when members of an
after-school program in New Hampshire heard the story “The Boy and the Starfish,”the Starfish Club was born! The story goes like this:
A man sees a boy throwing starfish that have washed up on the beach back into
the ocean. He tells the boy that he’s wasting his time , “you can’tpossibly save
them all— you can’tmake a difference.”As the boy returns another starfish to the
sea, he says to the man,“Maybe—but I made a huge difference for that one!”
The Starfish Club members enjoy making a difference for animals . They do a
lot to help animals in their local shelter . But when they learned that a boy in Massachusetts worked to get a law passed banning(严禁 )the sale of shark fins (鳍 ) in his state , they decided to try to get a similar law passed in New Hampshire .
The kids learned a lot about shark finning , a practice of cutting off the fins of sharks and then throwing the sharks back into the ocean to die . The fins are sold and used to make shark fin soup . Each year, tens of millions of sharks are
killed for their fins .
Club members made posters , and wrote letters to raise awarenessabout the problem . When a bill to ban the shark fin trade was proposed 提(议 ) in their state , four members traveled to the state capitol to testify (作证 ) for passage of the bill . But in the end , the bill wasn’tpassed into law —at least not this time .
“I feel proud of myself and the Starfish Club for working very hard ,”adds Payton Paradis , age 10 . “I am sad that the law didn’t pass , but I hope we encouraged many kids around the world to keep trying , no matter what the problem is . And remember —fins belong of sharks, not in soup ”!

Aerial performer Jennifer Bricker was born without legs, but she never let
it stop her.
Wrapped in a loop of red silk hung from the ceiling Jennifer Bricker climbs
and twists to the music. Her head hangs down and her strong arms let go as she balances on her back, high above the ground a move that’s all the more daring because she has no legs.
Jennifer was a few months old when she was adopted by Sharon and Gerald Bricker. She had big brown eyes, a bright smile, and huge amounts of energy. When a doctor advised her adoptive parents to carry her around in a kind of bucket, they refused.
Jennifer soon learned to walk — and run — on her hands and bottom, and grew up fearlessly climbing trees and bouncing on the trampoline（蹦床）with her three older brothers. “My parents didn ’ttreat me differently so I didn ’tgrasp the concept that I was different. I knew I didn ’thave legs but that wasn’tstopping me from doing the things I wanted to do.”
At the age of three she was fitted with artificial legs, but she never really took to them — she moved more freely without.
In 1996 the Olympic Games took place in Atlanta. Jennifer loved to watch
the women’s gymnastics team, and especially adored the 14-year-old Dominique Moceanu who competed for the US. When Moceanu and the
women ’s team won gold, Jennifer decided she was going to be a gymnast, too. She took up power tumbling, which involves performing floor exercises down a runway. But Jennifer did not want any allowances to be made for her disability.
At the age of 10 she took part in the Junior Olympics and by age 11 she
was tumbling champion for the state of Illinois.
Jennifer now travels the world as an inspirational speaker and acts as an aerial performer.
9.Why did Jennifer determine to be a gymnast?
A. She knew that she was different from others.
B. She wanted to make allowances for her disability.
C.
She was eager to participate in the Junior Olympics. D.
She was greatly influenced by Dominique Moceanu.
10.What do we know about Jennifer Bricker?
A. She felt embarrassed without legs.
B. She was carried in a bucket as a baby.
C. She was brought up as a normal child.
D. She lost her legs when she was adopted.
11. Which of the following can best describe Jennifer Bricker?
A. Self-respected
B. Cautious.
C. Sensitive.
D. Clever.

On Monday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention predicted that 42% of Americans could be overweight by 2030. Our expanding waistlines lead to not only a medical problem, but according to a recent article In The New York Times, it could also endanger personal safety in some situations—in an airplane crash, for example.
The New York Times ’Christen Negroni reports that engineers and scientists are questioning whether airplane seats are adequately constructed to protect overweight travelers. Government standards for airplane seat strength（强度）—first set moe than 60 years ago — require that the seats be made for a passenger weighing 170 pounds (77kg). Today, the average American man weighs nearly 194 pounds (88kg) and the average woman 165 pounds (75kg). Negroni reports:“If a heavier person completely fills seat, the seat is not likely to behave as intended during a crash,”said Robert Salazar, the leading scientist at the Center for Applied Biomechanics at the University of Virginia. “The energy absorption that is built into the aircraft seat is likely to be overpowered and the passengers will not be protected properly.”
“Nor would the injury be limited to that passenger only,”Dr. Salzar said. “If a seat or a seat belt fails, ”he said, “those people who are seated nearby could be endangered from‘the uncontrolled movements of the passenger’.”
Most complaints about airplane seats focus on their lack of comfort and high ticket price, and whether overweight passengers should be made to buy two seats. But The New York Times’article brings up another reason to feel anxious about flying. Investigators of the issue got in touch with the airplane seat and seat belt makers, but they refused to comment on the problem. Experts agreed that crash testing should be done with overweight dummies（人体模型）. Both airplane seats and seat belts should be tested, they said.
Fortunately, however, according to Nora Marshall, a senior adviser at the
National Transportation Safety Board, the board’s investigators have never seen an accident involving a commercial plane in which the weight of a passenger was
a problem.
12.What is the article in The New York Times mainly concerned with?
A. The size of airplane seats and seat belts.
B. Safety of overweight airplane passengers.
C. Airplane crashes involving commercial planes.
D.
A medical problem caused by being overweight.
13. Robert Salzar would probably agree that.
A. overweight passengers should buy two seats
B. the government should help produce safer planes
C. standards for airplane seat strength should be raised
D. passengers should know how to protect themselves
14. We can learn from the text that.
A. airplane seat makers have taken action now
B. there are few complaints about airplane seats
C. those seate near the overweight may suffer too
D. only a small number of airplane accidents involve the
overweight 15. What is the best title for the text?
A. Why Do Passengers Feel Anxious about Flying?
B. Will 42% of Americans Be OVERWEIGHT BY 2030?
C. When Will the Overweight Enjoy Their Flight?
D. Are Airplane Seats Safe Enough for the Overweight?

Last year I started to learn t’at chi in order to improve my health and reduce my stress. It was something new for me, and I found it to be quite difficult, very

Now I ’ve found that I ’m a much more patient person than before, and ’tai chi isn’tnearly as difficult as it45(be ) before.
We tend 46(like) things we are good at — that’snormal. For example, I’m naturally very good at badminton and tennis, but I ’m very had at anything 47 involves keeping balance, such as skating, skiing and gymnastics. T’ai chi has 48 (great) improved my balance which has been a very good thing for me.
My point is that you can keep 49 (do) the things you know you ’re good at and live in your comfort zone, or you can try something new. If you don’ttry new things, you’ll never know what it would be like to try something new. Challenge 50(you). It will definitely pay off in the end.

Dear Miss Rose,
I am writing to you to tell you a piece of good news. Last week our school held a Spoken English Competition. I stood out in the competition and won the first place. In my view, all the achievement that I have gained is owed to your help. During your spare time, you often spent so much time in helping me with my spoken English that I made rapid progress. During the competition, I followed your advice on how to behave and how to keep a good state, which led to my success. I’m grateful for your help. Without your help, I couldn ’thave won such a prize. I decide that I will make more efforts and try to make grater progress.
I’m looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua。
