     Jason Crole studies in an American high school. As a native of London, the 16-year-old didn't know much
about America's colonial (殖民地的) past before this summer.
     But now Crole can talk a lot about the settlers (移民者), slavery (奴隶制) and the events that led up to the
American Revolution (美国独立战争). He learned about these subjects at a summer program at the College of
William and Mary, Virginia.
     It is a 70-year-old program that gathers high school students from across the US to study early American
history.
     "It's been great and a lot of hard work," said Crole. "This is not a subject really  taught in England, so I'm
learning a lot of new things."
     The program meet from 8 am to 3 pm five days a week. It goes for three weeks. Students go to lectures
and read essays about the time period they are studying. They study history from the founding of Jamestown
through the American Revolution and the Civil War (美国内战).
     As well as leaming about history in the classroom, students also take field trips to historical sites. They visit
Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown and other sites around Virginia. They learn what life was like during that
time.
     "We hope the students can really leam something about our early history," said Carolyn Sparks Whittenburg,
director of the program. " We offer the program to kids who love history. A total of 111 students were in the
program this summer, but we hope for more next year."

     The computer makes doing schoolwork easier tor me than it was tor my mom and dad. For example,
when writing book reports and stories,I use Microsoft Word instead of a pen and paper. That way, after
my teacher edits my work, I can go back and make revisions without having to rewrite the whole thing.
And Microsoft Word has a spell check! I use it all the time.
     For English class, we're reading The Outsiders, by S. E. Hinton. As a pre-reading assignment (作业), my
teacher asked us to research teenage groups on the Intemet. I tried Google, Encarta, and Yahoo first, and
finally found an article on Time. com.
     For a geography assignment on the United States, I used Encarta to learn about the Mississippi River. I
needed to find out how deep the river is, how its widths and depths are different,what states it runs through,
and what kinds of fish live in it. I used the information to show how the geography of a country influences its
economy (经济). For example,the river's trade paths,the number of fish caught in it,and the tourists it attracts
directly influence Southemers' jobs and incomes (收入).
     I never go to the library to do research. It takes too much time. Since I live in New York City and both my
parents work,getting to the library isn't always easy. For a big assignment or research project, I used to stay
at the library to read,or sign out whatever books or magazines I needed. Now being able to find the information
in my own living room makes everything a lot simpler. Online dictionaries and encyclopedias (百科全书) also
save time.
      Sometimes, I think the computer spoils young people because it's so easy-at least physically. But
computers are not like television, which does the thinking for you. You still have to use your mind. I prefer
using a computer. Easy, fun, and fast.
1. Does the computer make doing schoolwork harder for the writer?
    ______________________________________________________
2. What does the writer use when he wr tes book reports and stories? 
    ______________________________________________________
3. How does the wr ter complete a big assignment or research project? 
     ______________________________________________________
4. What does the underlined word "spoils" mean in English?

5. What's the ran idea of this passage?

     Online shopping has become something very common for young people, however, it's not easy for the
old people to buy things on the internet. Therefore, offline Daigou stores, or buy-for-you stores, are becoming
popular among the old.
     64-year-old man Li Hui'an is searching for his favorite CD in an offline Daigou shop. He says, "It's very
convenient to buy things online, however, I can't use the internet. After I happened to find this buy-for-you
shop, I decided to try, as I wanted to buy an opera CD. Finally I got one I'd searched for for several years.
I was so happy. I have become crazy about offline shopping."
     The store owner Liu Min says in order to meet the need of people who want to buy things online but can't
use the internet, she started the business of offline buy-for-you. In only about ten days since the start of the
business, she has received more than 20 orders from customers (顾客). Liu Min is not the only one who finds
the large need of offline buy-for-you business in the market. In Dalian city, northeast China, more than 300
such stores opened their doors only in April.
     In order to attract more customers, they have opened their shops in residential communities (居民区). And
they charge a suitable service fee. For example, when buying things that cost less than 200 yuan for customers,
they usually charge 5 yuan as service fee.
     Though the offline buy-for-you service makes it easier for certain people to shop online, what if there is
any problem with the ordered thing, let's say, like a quality problem? The shop owners say they will deal with
any quality problems that may happen when using their Daigou service.

     If a snake bites you, take a photo with your mobile phone! It save your life. This is the surprising advice
of a British cook. One day Henry Jackson was working in a restaurant kitchen. He picked up a dish from a
table, and suddenly a snake appeared and bit him on the hand. A few days earlier, the snake came to the
restaurant from Asia in a box of bananas. It climbed out of the box and hid under the dish. "I tried to pick it
up and it bit me. I threw it away, but it landed in the fridge. So I closed the door." Jackson said. Anyway,
Jackson was cool and he took a photo of the snake with his mobile phone. Soon his hand began to ache and
he went to hospital. Then his chest began to hurt. Doctors couldn't say what was wrong because they didn't
know what kind of snake it was.
     Then Jackson remembered his mobile phone photo. The doctors sent it to London Zoo. When they knew
the kind of snake, they could give Jackson the right medicine, and he left hospital the next day. "So my advice

     The widespread number of food scandals (丑闻) in China is making many people pause before they put
their chopsticks in their mouth. They are wondering if the food they are eating is clean, healthy and nutritious
or does it contain something harmful that will cause disease?
     Most of the food we eat today is processed food ( 加工食品). That means the foods we buy in stores and
supermarkets, especially packaged foods, are prepared in factories. Chemicals are added to the foods in these
factories to make them look better, taste better and last longer on the shelf. The chemicals are supposed to be
harmless and there are laws that regulate which chemicals can and cannot be used. Unfortunately, some
producers do not obey the laws.
     A producer of steamed buns (馒头) in Zhejiang Province was recently discovered to be breaking the law.
He was adding yellow dye and other banned chemicals to the buns. He was also taking old buns and using
them to make new buns. Most of the buns were sold to schools and eaten by students... like you.
     Why did he do it? Why did he break the law and endanger people's health? The answer is simple: he
wanted to make more money. It was a moral failing, and this is at the heart of the food scandals in China.
Too many people focus on making money and not on the effects their actions can have on others.
