Most kids hate doing housework. However, not all hope is lost. There are some things that you can do to get your kids to help you clean your house. If you are struggling with the chores (家务)and need your kids to help you, take a look at some of the creative ways in this article.
If you are dealing with older kids, you may want to try the allowance deal. You can give your kids a list of chores that need to be done each week. If they complete these chores, you can give them some money. You can also break the list down and tell them they will get so much for each chore that is finished. Older kids , who like to do things on weekends or buy things like video games, will work hard to complete their chores and earn their money. This is also teaching them responsibility. This is teaching them that they must work for what they want.
If you are dealing with younger kids, you may want to go with the rewards chart(奖励图表）. This is where you design a chart and list their chores on the chart. For each chore they complete, you can put a red flower beside it. For the rewards, you canalso do a number of things ,such as going to the park, going out to eat, buying a DVD or something similar. The rewards would be up to you because you know what your kids like.
For real small kids, you can turn it into a game. When kids were much younger, you can teach them to dance around and sing as you cleaned. The kids loved it and would do a wonderful job at picking up their toys. So, consider turning cleaning into a game for the real small kids.

Many young people all over the world love to travel and see the world. Have you heard of backpackers? They are normally young people who travel cheaply with just one bag and comfortable walking boots. They buy local food in supermarkets to save money and at the same time become friends with local people.
Some people prefer adventure tours. Brave people may try bungee(蹦极) jumping from the bridge overlooking the Victoria Falls in Africa with only a rope around their legs. Some enjoy the challenge of rock climbing in the Alps in Switzerland. Others may go ice skiing in the Rocky Mountains in the USA.
Have you ever heard of an ecotourism (生态旅游)? It means a holiday in which people come close to nature but are very careful not to destroy the nature beauty or living things in the area. How can this be possible? Let's read an interview with people who enjoyed a swimming with dolphins tour.
Interviewer what was the most exciting part of your holiday?
Sharon from South Africa I felt excited when I heard the sound of wild dolphins beside me in the water and then swimming directly under me. An image I will never forget.
Xavier from Portugal There were two dolphins below us swimming downwards. One stopped and looked back at me as if to say “What are those strange things?” Fantastic!
Interviewer Did you feel that your holiday helped local people and areas to keep their beautiful environment?
Jane from New Zealand The hotel and the whale and dolphin watching companies hire local people. They used to hunt those whales and dolphins, but now they can earn money from tourism and mustn’t kill whales and dolphins. Not many boats are used at the same time so these animals aren't disturbed. The boat companies also work to educate the local schools about the importance of protecting these wonderful animals.
Helen from England I am glad they are not killing the whales and dolphins any more, but the cars and boats use fuel(燃料) which could cause pollution and make the sea dirtier.
Well, what do you think? Thousands of people visit the Forbidden City or the Great Wall of China every year. Do you think that's a good thing, or do you feel that China's important tourist attractions can be affected? Are there any ways of sharing your treasures (珍宝) but keeping them in good condition?

小题1:From the first paragraph, backpackers are young people________.
A．visiting historical places in China
B．traveling cheaply with just one bag
C．who love to travel and see the world alone
D．who love to buy local things as souvenirs
小题2:What can't you do when you take an ecotourism?
A．Come close to nature in the holiday carefully.
B．Protect the living things in the area.
C．Be careful not to destroy the nature beauty.
D．Keep the local people unhappy.
小题3:Sharon, Xavier, Jane and Helen think the tours are helpful EXCEPT________.
A．the hotel and the companies hire local people to help them earn money
B．local people used to hunt and kill whales and dolphins but now they don't
C．not many boats are used at the same time so animals aren't disturbed
D．the cars and boats use fuel to cause pollution and make the sea dirtier
小题4:According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A．It's a cheap and popular way to travel and see the world as a backpacker.
B．We believe an ecotourism can greatly protect the nature beauty and living things.
C．China's tourist attractions can be protected because of being visited by tourists.
D．We’d better find good ways to share our treasures and keep them good.
Height is just one of the features your genes (基因) decide. In fact, because you have two parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If both your parents are tall, then most probably you will be tall, too. But if you have questions about how tall you’re going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find them out.
But genes don’t decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can keep you from growing to your full potential (潜力). Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height.
It’s natural that you’re wondering how fast you should grow. There’s no perfect or right answer. Generally speaking, kids grow about 6 cm a year between age 3 and the time when they start puberty .
Your doctor will know how your growth has been going over the years. 2 cm here and 3 cm there make a little difference to the height you’re at now. How have you been growing up to this height？What other changes may your body be going through？
Don’t be amazed if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a growth spurt (高峰) during puberty. The age for starting puberty is about 10 for girls and about 11 for boys. But it can be earlier or later — between 7 and 13 for girls and 9 and 15 for boys.
You’ll usually begin to notice that you’re growing faster about a year after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty.
小题1:If you want to know how tall you should grow, _______.
A．you should have enough exercise
B．you can ask doctors for help
C．you should take some special medicine
D．you can record your growth during puberty
小题2:The Chinese for the word “ puberty ” is _______.
A．童年时期B．婴幼儿时期
C．习惯养成期D．生长发育期
小题3:This passage is mainly about ______.
A．how the genes work in your body
B．how your parents’ height influence you
C．how you look like your parents
D．how you grow to a certain height
小题4:After reading this passage, we can explain ______.
A．how good it is to be a doctor
B．how much sleep time we need
C．why genes can’t decide everything
D．what healthy diet is
小题5:Which is NOT mentioned in the passage？
A．Your height most probably depends on how tall your parents are.
B．Girls’ age for starting puberty is usually earlier than that for boys’.
C．The features showing the first changes of puberty between boys and girls are different.
D．You may be amazed sometimes when you grow too fast.

If you’re ready to add more physical activity(体育运动) to your life, here are some tips(建议).
Make physical activity part of your routine, like brushing your teeth or going to work. Try biking to work at least once a week, using the stairs more often, or walking to some places near home. But talk to your doctor before you start an exercise routine, especially if you haven’t been very active or have health problems.
Walking is one of the best fitness(健康) activities. To keep up a routine, you can walk with family members, friends or pets. Count your steps with a step counter(计数器). You can buy one at a sporting goods store. If you don’t have time for one 30-minute walk, break it into three 10-minute walks.
Find an activity that you enjoy, and stay with it. Change it with other activities so you don’t get bored. For example, walk three days a week, and swim or bike on the other days. Join a volleyball or basketball club for fun and exercise. By finding more activities you enjoy, you’ll have a greater chance for success.

小题1:The underlined word “routine” probably means “______” in Chinese.

  It was New Year’s Night. An aged man was standing at a window. He raised his mournful eyes towards the deep blue sky, where the stars were floating like white lilies on the surface of a clear calm lake.
He had already passed sixty and brought from his journey nothing but errors and regrets. Now his health was poor, his mind vacant and his heart sorrowful.
The days of his youth appeared like dreams before him, and he recalled the serious moment when his father placed him at the entrance of the two roads- one leading to a peaceful, sunny place, covered with flowers, fruits and filled with soft, sweet songs; the other leading to a deep, dark cave, which was endless, where poison flowed instead of water and devils and poisonous snake hissed ( 发嘶嘶声) and crawled (爬, 爬行).
He saw the lights flowing away in the darkness. These were the days of his wasted life; he saw a star fall from the sky and disappeared, and this was the symbol of himself. His regret like a sharp arrow struck deeply into his heart. Then he remembered his friends in his childhood. But they had made their way to success and were now honoured and happy on this night.
The high church clock struck and the sound made him remember his parents’ early love for him. They had taught him and prayed for his good. But he chose the wrong way. With shame and grief he dared no longer look towards that heaven. His darkened eyes were full of tears, and with a despairing effort, he burst out a cry: “Come back, my early days!”
His youth did return, for all this was only a dream which he had on New Year Night. He was still young though his faults were real; he had not yet entered the deep, dark cave, and he was still free to walk on the road which leads to the peaceful and sunny land.
Those who still wander on the entrance of life, hesitating to choose the bright road, remember that when years are passed and your feet stumble (绊脚) on the dark mountains, you will cry bitterly, but in vain（徒劳）: “ Oh youth, return! Oh give me back my early days!”
小题1: Why does the author set his story on New Year’s Night?
A．He wants to tell people it’s time to recall the past
B．He suggests the aged man will have a bright future
C．He attempts to stress（强调）the man’s sad feeling
D．He expects people to share the man’s sad feeling
小题2: The aged man in the passage on New Year’s Night can be described as ____.
A．sorrowful, fearful and regretful
B．hopeful, sorrowful and peaceful
C．regretful, painful and disappointed
D．disappointed, regretful and hopeful
小题3: The author writes the passage mainly to ____.
A．encourage young people to take the right road
B．help the old man to pick up his confidence
C．describe the old man’s unsuccessful experience
D．show his sympathy for the old man
You can be proud of yourselves, even if you can only make one or two of these green changes. The goal here is to limit carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, which are closely connected to the big problem of global-warming (全球变暖).
WAY 1: Bring your own cup to Starbucks. You’ll get a 10-cent discount, and it’s one less paper cup to end up in a dustbin. The store won’t create more waste when they throw away a cup.
WAY 2: Turn off your computer. When in standby mode, your PC is still using energy. Turning off a monitor (显示器) for 40 hours a week may only save $ 5 a month, but it reduces CO2 by 750 pounds.
WAY 3: Reuse plastic bags. Instead of throwing away 100 billion plastic bags a year, try and get a second, third, or tenth use out of them. Better yet, next time you shop, try a reusable bag. The amount of oil it would take to make just 14 plastic bags would run your car for one mile.
WAY 4: Use recycled paper in the bathroom. Most of the toilet paper we use is made from trees found in forests. If every family replaced(替换)one roll of toilet paper with a recycled one, 424,000 trees would still be standing.
WAY 5: Plant a tree. Adding green to your garden is beautiful and earth-pleasing. Just one tree will help make cleaner air and save the environment from 5, 000 pounds of hot carbon dioxide each year.
小题1:How many ways are mentioned(提及) in the passage?
A．Two. B．Three.
C．Four.D．Five.
小题2:What will happen if our PC is turned off when it isn’t in use?
A．It will help to save a large amount of money.
B．It will help to reduce a great deal of CO?.
C．It will save the amount of oil that runs your car for a mile.
D．It will be like planting 1.7 million acres of new trees.
小题3:Which ways suggest recycling or reusing of things?
A．Ways 3 & 4.B．Ways 2 & 3.　　
C．Ways 3 & 5.D．Ways 2 & 4.
小题4:How do these ways do good to our environment?
A．They all help reduce the use of energy like electricity.　
B．They all cut down the number of the use of paper.
C．They all produce less greenhouse gases as a result.
D．They all help protect our trees and forests.
小题5:What is the best title for the passage?
A．Ways toSave MoneyB．Waysto Be Earth-Friendly
C．Ways to End Global-WarmingD．Waysto Limit Carbon Dioxide
Healthy eating habits are important. Here are some of the best eating habits. Follow them and you will have a healthy life style.
Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day, then you can have clearer skin, better sleep, and better eyesight(视力). If not, you’re in danger of losing water. You may need even more water if you are exercising.
Breakfast is the most important meal of a day. You will have more energy after eating breakfast. If you do not eat breakfast, you may easily become tired. It is not good for your health.
Eat lunch every day. If you don’t have time to go out to have a big meal, or if you are too busy with your work, take a sandwich in the morning with you for a quick lunch.
We should eat fruit and vegetables every day. Add an apple to your breakfast, have a salad with lunch, and eat at least one vegetable for dinner.
Try to have dinner at least 3 hours earlier before you go to bed. Your body needs time to digest
(消化)most of the food before you rest for the next 8 hours.
