What’s the capital of Australia? If you answer Sydney, you’re wrong, with travel website VirtualTourist.com (www.virtualtourist.com) coming up with a list of the six most surprising non-capital cities in the world.

1) New York City, New York

It may be king of the hill and the top of the heap (堆), but only figuratively (比喻地). NYC is not the country’s capital, which is Washington DC. Nor is it the state capital, an honor given to the upstate(北部地区的) town of Albany, which is also the birthplace of perforated (穿孔的)toilet paper.

2) Sydney, Australia

Although it is famous for its harbor and opera house, Sydney is not the capital. Canberra, which is just less than its one-hundred-year celebration, is actually the capital of Australia.

3) Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

It’s fun, exciting and has something for everyone, but that still doesn’t make it Brazil’s capital. While the city which is famous for the festival used to be the capital, Brasilia now takes that position.

4) Johannesburg, South Africa

Interestingly, South Africa has more than one capital city, none of which are Johannesburg. Divided by branch of government the capitals are: Bloemfontein, the capital of the judiciary (司法的), Pretoria, the capital of the administrative branch and Cape Town acting as the country’s legislative (立法的) capital.

5) Geneva, Switzerland

Neither this nor Zurich serves as the country’s capital. The attractive, quiet, UNESCO-recognized town of Bern holds this honor.

6) Timbuktu, Mali

Mysterious, exotic (异国情调的), and perhaps the country’s most recognizable name, it takes second place to the city of Bamako. Bamako considered the fastest growing city in Africa. It is also a world-famous center for music. Bamako is attracting famous singers to its local pubs where hometown artists play through the night.

Olympic gold medalist Morolake Akinosun walked through the halls of her high school in Illinois in the US, surprised at how little had changed at her old high school other than the green color on the walls.

Akinosun won her medal with the 400-meter relay team at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro this summer. Her return to her high school recently included a chance for the young woman to tell what she’s learned since running track for Wsubonsie more than fours year ago.

Her first piece of advice to the crowd of students was asking them to listen to their parents. “ They see things you can't see,” she said. “ In high school I thought I was on the top of the world.”

In Akinosun’s case, her parents encouraged her to consider going to the University of Illinois, which at the time had a team that was coached by Olympic medal winner Tonja Buford-Bailey. “ I wouldn’t be where I am today without my parents,” she said.

Her parents saw Buford-Bailey as a good fit to coach their daughter, something Akinosun said she didn’t understand at the time. It didn’t take long, however, for her to see they were right and she ended up following Buford-Bailey to the University of Texas at Austin when the coach took a job there. Akinosun admitted it was three years before she told her parents they were right.

Becoming an excellent athlete who can take part in the Olympics needs serious dedication. She says her success came from viewing herself as an athlete-student instead of a student-athlete.

“I always put track and field first, and then comes school,” Akinosun said. A social life comes last.“It’s about sacrifices(牺牲). You can’t be on the track team unless you’re chosen,” she added.

Making athletics the most important thing in her life meant devoting her time and energy fully, no matter how she might feel on a given day. “ I never missed a training session (环节) in my four years in college,” she said. “It’s my job; it’s what I do. Think about that when you want to sleep in.”

1.Which of the following statements is TRUE about Akinosun according to the article?

A. She was a big fan of Buford-Bailey in high school.

B. She make up her mind to win Olympic gold medals in high school.

C. She still doesn’t want to admit that her parents helped her a lot.

D. She is thankful to her parents for finding her the right coach.

2.According to Akinosun, she became a successful athlete because ______.

A. she had great confidence in herself.

B. she always put training before anything else.

C. she was pushed by her coach to train hard.

D. she could keep a good balance between school and training.

3.The underlined word “dedication” in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to ______.

A. a strong desire B. knowing oneself

C. a clear purpose D. devoting her time and energy fully

4.What’s the best title of the passage?

A. How Akinosun spent her high school years.

B. The story of Akinosun’s success.

C. Being an athlete is not easy.

D. Akinosun’s advice to her schoolmates.

A poem starts with a thought, an idea, or an emotion felt from the heart．Poems can be happy or sad, deep-thinking or even humorous．The choice is up to you and your imagination as to what you will create．

Your first step is to write down the idea or thought that you have and you want to turn into a poem．Next, you should turn the thought into a free verse(自由诗体)poem．Free verse poems are much easier to write as there are no steadfast rules to write them．Some free verse doesn’t even have any rhyme or meter．

Now, rewrite your thoughts into lines．Now is the time to look at your lines and remember that the poem should have a beginning, a middle, and an end, just like a story, a book, or a movie．

Reread your poem several times and listen to the words and to the rhythm of each line．Now is the time to shorten or lengthen each line in order to create a smooth-sounding poem．Even though it is a free verse poem, you can choose to make each line rhyme with the next line if you want to．

Now go back and reread your poem again. Check for proper punctuation(标点)as well as for the proper spelling of each word. Think up a suitable title for your poem. It would be a good idea to set your poem aside for a while and then return to it later．

Then, reread it again with a fresh mind and make some necessary changes．

If you decided to continue writing poetry, it would be a good idea to investigate(研究) some books about creating poetry, and to attend some local workshops. Check out the available resources on the Internet as well as what is available at your local public library.

Nowadays, the destruction of forests is one of most serious environment problems. From that I understand, people are destroying thousands of square kilometers of trees every day. This is killing hundreds of wild animals live in the forests. But something must be done. Unfortunately, we don’t do everything to protect the forests.

People who cut down trees should go to prison. That’s what happens in some country to people who sell plastic bags. That’s what should happened to people who destroy the forests. I can’t help but to think that we must protect wildlife for future generations. Hopeful, our children will be even much responsible than we are today.

Shopping is one of the best ways to relax after a stressful week. Nothing is more satisfying than finding a perfect item -- and when I’ m bored with shopping for clothes I move on to make-up and shoes. I never shop in sales -- the reason the items haven’ t sold at full price is usually because they are badly made or horrible colours.

--Blanca

I hate shopping and it bores me enormously. I really cannot understand such a useless and expensive habit. I only shop for clothes when I can’ t get out of it and when I do, I make sure I buy good quality and as much as I can afford, to put off having to go again for as long as possible. I have friends who will spend a Whole day going from shop to shop trying on lots of different clothes and not buying anything. That’s really stupid.

--Pam

I can’ t see the point in spending a lot of money on clothes, when they are so much cheaper abroad. I do most of my shopping when I go on holiday, and get great clothes for half the price. I love finding bargains! I also buy a lot in sales. The clothes may be out of fashion a bit, but they’ re good quality, and if you wait long enough, they come back into fashion!

--Meghan

I personally still spend half of my wage on clothes. I usually only ever wear something three times before I throw it in the back of my wardrobe (衣橱). I never wear a party dress more than once. If I lost my job and couldn’t afford to buy lots of clothes, I would never be able to go out of the house again.

--Shelly

1.What does Pam focus on when shopping for clothes?

A. Price. B. Brand.

C. Pattern. D. Quality.

2.Who is a bargain hunter?
