It was Johnny’s birthday, and he was four years old. He got quite a lot of nice birthday presents from his family and one of them was a beautiful big drum.
“Who gave him that thing?” Johnny’s father said when he saw it.
“ His grandfather did,” answered Johnny’s mother.
“ Oh,” said his father.
Of course, Johnny liked his drum very much. He made a terrible noise with it, but his mother did not mind. His father was working during the day, and Johnny was in bed when he got home in the evening, so he did not hear the noise.
But one of the neighbors did not like the noise at all, so one morning a few days later, she took a sharp knife and went to Johnny’s house when he was hitting his drums. She said to him, “Hello, little Johnny. Do you know, there’s something very nice inside your drum. It is a big surprise from your family. Here is a knife. Open the drum and let’s find it.”
The Olympics is a world-famous sporting event. Many people might be surprised to know the first game dates back to two or three thousand years ago. People called the game by this name because it used to take place in Olympia, Greece. After the fall of ancient Greece, no one held the sporting event for about 1,500 years. A French man, Pierre de Coubertin started it up again at the end of the 19th century. Since then, the Olympics takes place every four years, except for in 1916, 1940, and 1944, when the two World Wars were happening.
The Olympics were so important to the Greeks that they even used them as a way of counting time. Because they held the games every four years, the word “Olympics” meant “four years” in their language. People say that the short race was the first Olympic sport, but as time passed, more and more sports are added, and that makes the event more exciting.

Reading is an activity people enjoy a lot in their free time. Some like reading newspapers, and others enjoy novels or comic books. I like reading about the lives of great people. This always gives me a lot of ideas on how to make my own life better.
Great people are remembered not because they were handsome or beautiful, but because they did not give up when their lives were difficult. They used every opportunity to change their lives and make the world better.
One good example is Orville and Wilbur Wright, the two brothers who invented the airplane. The plane has made the world into a small village. Hard work, not good luck, is the reason why the Wright Brothers could invent this convenient machine and become remarkable people. Today we still remember them when we see planes in the sky.
When I feel sad, stories of great people always help me feel better. This is why I enjoy reading about great people’s lives.

Circling the earth high above, the International Space Station (ISS) is the largest spacecraft ever built. Sixteen countries are working together on the 60-billion-dollar station. Eleven European countries, Japan, Russia, the United States, Canada, and Brazil are partners.
The ISS is made of many parts, called “modules”. They fit together like pieces of a puzzle. A Russian rocket brought the first module to space in November, 1998. In July, 2000, the ISS received a very important module, the Zvezda (Russian for “star”). That’s the station’s first living area. The first crew to live at the station flew there on October 31, 2000. The plan is for a new crew to replace the old one every four months.
The ISS is important for many reasons. It is an excellent place for scientific work. Spacecraft going to the moon, Mars, or elsewhere may stop at the station for fuel and supplies. The ISS also helps to improve world peace.
It brings scientists, governments, and the people of the world together. Scientists hope to use the ISS for 10 years or longer. It’s an exciting new step as we explore the moon, the stars, and beyond.

More than one quarter of the world, there is so little rain that almost nothing will grow. This is desert.
There are hot deserts and cold deserts. In hot deserts, there is very little water in the air and there are no clouds.
There is nothing to stop the rays of the sun hitting the ground, which becomes very hot by day. But when the sun sets, the dry ground quickly loses its heat and the nights are cold.
The air is very clear because there is no water in it. People can see things that are far away very clearly and at night the stars seem near and bright. Sometimes the hot air rising from the ground looks like water. Thirsty travelers hurry towards it but find that there is no water, only sand.
Sometimes there are sandstorms(沙暴). Strong winds blow the sand across the desert and the sun goes dark.
Then people traveling in the sandstorm area cover their heads and wait for the storm to stop. They are usually over quickly.

(九) (48.~50.)
Many hotels around the world are jumping on the bandwagon of going “green;” that is, they’re adopting an environmentally friendly way to run their business.
What makes a hotel “green”? To begin with, a “green” hotel adopts a “towel reuse program.” It means fresh towels are provided to the guests only at their request. In other words, it is the guests that decide when to get their towels changed. The program is meant to reduce the water and energy required for washing towels on a daily basis.
Besides, special containers are available in every room, and they allow guests to put their recyclable trash there. The recycled items, in turn, can be used again. For example, recycled plastic bottles can be made into a new container for guests to put flowers in.
Most importantly, the amount of energy used in the hotel is reduced through different energy-saving schemes.
For instance, escalators are turned off between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m., when most guests are sleeping in their rooms.
In addition, light bulbs in guestrooms are replaced with energy-efficient lighting systems. This way, several thousand dollars can be saved on water and electricity bills each year.
An environmentally friendly hotel is the best place to stay overnight. Travelers are doing good things for our planet in every minute of their stay.
