Middle school days are both fun and busy. Students spend their days in class,   1   to the interesting or sometimes boring words of their teachers. At break (休息) , they run, play and shout happily . But 2 should students spend their free time after school?
In western countries,   3   is normal for students to have a part-time  4 after school or at weekends. Students can make their  5   money and learn more about the real world. They enjoy the independence (独立) and money, and their parents enjoy the quiet house. However, it seems that, in China, parents  6  so much about their children’s studies that they would like to see their children spending most of their time  7 for all those exams. It is natural for Chinese parents to feel that  8  , but I think everything should be kept in balance. Sometimes, western school children 9  long hours after school to make money, so they  10  too tired to listen in class or do their homework. But Chinese students spend so much time on their studies that all else becomes less important.

“I’m, er – I’m just wondering if you would consider coming to work on my team,” he said nervously. “You are really   3   and you would be a great partner.”
“I don't think so,” I replied, feeling unsure.
“Well,   4   you change your mind, you can tell me tomorrow.” he said before moving to another table.

With my help, Jeff and our ideas were well received at school.

What will you do to make sure you reach your goals? There are 1 main steps .

Well, a dream is just that. It’s a vision (远见) of how you 　6　 yourself in the future. As long as you know the direction in which you want to go, you can begin 　7　 some goals.

If you want 　10 grades, tell what you mean by ‘good’. In fact, the more specific the goal is, the 　11　 it will be to get it. Give numbers and times. Don’t use words like ‘lots’ or ‘more’. 　12, I want a ‘B’ in each of my subjects.
Third are the objectives (目标). They tell 　13　 what you will do and when you will do it. When you think about what you will do, don’t use words like ‘　14　’ or ‘maybe’. Be sure your objectives can be measured (估量). Every day or every week you can ask, ‘Did I 　15　 this?’ and you can answer with either a yes or a no. Don’t leave room for ‘maybes’.

Have you ever wondered?
1.      Why do airplanes take longer to fly west than east?
It can take five hours to go west-east from New York (NY) to London but seven hours to travel east-west from London to NY. The reason for the difference is an atmospheric phenomenon (大气现象) known as the jet stream (气流). The jet stream is a very high altitude (=" above" sea level) wind which always blows from the west to the east across the Atlantic. So the planes moving at a constant air speed go faster from the west to the east when they are moving with the wind than in the opposite.
2.      What would happen if the gravity on Earth was suddenly turned off?
Supposing we could magically turn off gravity. Would buildings and other structures（建筑物）float away? What happened would depend on (依靠) how strongly the things were attached (吸附) to the earth. The earth is moving at quite a speed, moving at over a thousand miles per hour. If you turn something around your head on a string, it goes around in a circle until you let go of the string. Then it flies off in a straight line. ‘Turning off’ gravity would be like letting go of the string. Things not attached to the earth would fly off in a straight line. People in buildings would suddenly shoot upwards at a great speed until they hit the ceiling (=" top" surface of a room). Most things outside would fly off into space.
小题1:What information can we get from the first passage?
A．It is the jet stream that affects how fast airplanes fly.
B．Planes go slower when they are moving with the wind.
C．It takes more time to fly from NY to London than from London to NY.
D．The jet stream always blows from the east to the west across the Atlantic.
小题2:The underlined word “shoot” in the 2nd paragraph means “_________”.
A．send for B．move quicklyC．come out D．grow quickly
小题3:It can be known that without gravity _________.
A．buildings and other structures would float away
B．trees and buildings would not so easily fly off
C．something around your head would not float away
D．everything outside buildings would fly off into space
小题4:Where can we read this passage?
A．In a research paper. B．In a short story.
C．In a travel magazine.D．In a student’s book
Can animals do work for us? Some scientists think that animals may do a lot of jobs. They say that we may see many elephants, monkeys, dogs, bears, and other animals do a lot of things. Animals can get something to eat if（如果） they do some work for people.
