     On Nov.18th, 1908, three men went up in a balloon (气球). They started early in London. The headman
was Augusta Gaudron, and the other two men were Tannar and Maitland. They had a big balloon and they
were ready for a long way.
     Soon they heard the sea. They were carrying the usual rope (绳子), and it was hanging down from the
basket of the balloon. At the end of the rope they had tied a metal box. This could hold water, or it could be
empty. So they were able to change its weight (重量). It was for use over the sea. They were also carrying
some bags of sand. After the sun rose, the balloon went higher. It went up to 3,000 metres, and the air was
very cold. The water in the balloon became ice. Snow fell past the men's basket, and they could see more
snow on the ground. The men tried to throw out some more sand; but it was hard. They tried to break the
icy sand with their knives, but it was not easy. The work was slow and they were still falling, so they had to
drop some whole bags of sand. One of them fell on an icy lake and made a black hole in the ice.
     At last they pulled the box into the basket. It was still snowing; so they　climbed to get away from the
snow. They rose to 5,100 metres! Everything became icy. They were so cold that they decided to land.
They came down in Poland heavily but safely. They had travelled 1,797 kilometers from London!

     On July 23rd, 1993, Wang Jiapeng lost his legs when his plane crashed. Wang was only 12 years old.
     "I felt I was the unluckiest person in the world," says Wang."When I saw students with their schoolbags
on their backs, the sound of my wheelchair made me sick."
     Wang's mother took him to a special hospital in Beijing. She looked after him in the daytime and worked
at night to make money. But after two years, Wang was still not able to leave the hospital. Wang's mother
became too tired to go on and one day she herself became a hospital patient!
     One morning she woke up and saw her son holding breakfast for her. Wang's trip to the food shop was
his first time outside the hospital in two years. The five-minute walk took him thirty minutes. But he was
finally able to make an important decision."I didn't care how other people looked at me," he says."I had to
learn to do things myself."
     For the next few years, Wang taught himself all his middle school subjects in the hospital and, five years
after the accident, he won a chance to study in a college in Norway. Wang learned to drive, go rock climbing
and ski. He even won two gold medals for skiing in an international skiing competition.

you aren't."

     On a very hot day, it is hard to know what to do to feel good. If you run around, you may feel sick in
your stomach. However, if you just sit quietly and do nothing, you may feel bored. Are there things you
can do to feel good and have fun when you're hot?
     Perhaps playing in water is a good choice to make you cool down. Taking a cool bath or shower, or
even washing toys in a pan of cool water can also make you feel good on a hot day. Besides, you can read
stories or paint in front of a fan. You don't need to move your body very much. These are just some of the
cool things to do on a hot day.
     In addition, it's important for you to drink water. On hot days, you can lose about 16 glasses of water
in one day. If you feel thirsty, you are already short of water. So don't wait for thirst before you start to
drink. You should try to drink as much water as you lose every day. Mixing a little fruit juice into your
water is a fun way to help you drink plenty of water.
     The food you eat also makes a difference in how you feel in the heat. Cold foods such as ice cream and
drinks with some ice can cool down your bodies. Fruits and vegetables are also helpful to stay cool in hot
weather. So plan a healthy menu for a hot day---one that doesn't need any cooking.
1. Is it easy to know what to do to feel good on a hot day?

2. Is playing in water a good choice or a bad one?

3. How much water do we lose one day in hot weather?

we didn’t know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder(肩膀). “Hi, girl!
My name is Rose, I’m 87 years old.”

counts for young men,” she added.
