3.More than 30,000 people went to the White House on Monday for the 136th Easter Egg Roll (复活节滚彩蛋).President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama held the event by inviting thousands of kids to color and look for eggs.The theme of the day was"Hop Into Healthy,Swing Into Shape."It was part of the First Lady's"Let's Move!"program to reduce obesity rates (肥胖率) among American kids.Mrs.Obama spoke to young reporters about her goal to get children to eat right and keep moving.
"We are working to make sure that kids born today grow up healthy,learn how to have balanced meals,and get more physical activity into their lives,"she said.
Mrs.Obama said she wants children across the nation to understand that"exercise isn't just hard work,it's play.If you're running around with your dog,you're getting exercise.If you walk up the stairs,that's exercise.But if you're sitting in front of the TV or on a computer game,you're not exercising."
The First Lady said that for kids who have balanced meals most of the time,having a special snack,like chocolate,will not hurt."And if you are active,you can splurge (挥霍) a little more,"she said.Mrs.Obama's favorite"splurge food"is French fries.But she balances her splurging by exercising almost every day.She loves to play tennis and she practices yoga.
"A lot of kids look up to athletes,and I think it's important for athletes to share their good habits,"Mrs.Obama said."Kids aren't just going to wake up and be LeBron James.He's practicing and eating right and working out and training.Our athletes can be really good messengers to kids who look up to them-they can say to kids,‘If you really want to be like me,then you really do need to eat your vegetables.'"

2.When I was 8 years old,I decided to run away from home after a quarrel with my mother.With my suitcase packed and some sandwiches in a bag,I started for the front door.
      My mom asked where I was going."I'm leaving home,"I said.
"What's that you're carrying?"she asked.
"If you want to run away,that's all right,"she said."But you came into this home without anything and you can leave the same way."
      I threw my suitcase and sandwiches on the floor and started for the door again.
"Wait a minute,"Mom said."You didn't have any clothes on when you arrived,and I want them back."
      This infuriated me.I tore my clothes off------shoes,socks,underwear and all------and shouted,"Can I go now?
"Yes,"my mom answered,"but once you chose that door,don't expect to come back."
       I was so angry that I shut the door forcefully and stepped out of my home.Then I noticed down the street two neighbor girls walking toward our house.I was so shy that I saw the spruce(云杉) tree in our yard and jumped under the low-hanging branches(树枝).A pile of dried-up brown needles(针状物) were beneath the tree,and you can't imagine the pain those sharp needles caused to my body.
      After I was sure the girls had passed by,I ran to the front door and knocked at it loudly.
"It's Billy!Let me in!"
      The voice behind me to see if anyone else was coming down the street,I said,"Mom!I'm sorry.I'm still your son.Let me in!"
      The door opened and Mom's smiling face appeared."Did you change your mind about running away?she asked.
"What's for supper?"I smiled back.

1.Pets are popular.They're good listeners,they encourage us to exercise,and they're always on our side when we argue with others.They can bring us comfort and pleasure.
     But it is important to keep in mind that pets can carry diseases that can make you sick.Washing your hands often-----especially after you touch,feed,or clean up a pet-----is the best way to keep yourself healthy and prevent the spread of disease.Be sure to clean your fingernails(指甲)
carefully every time you wash.
      You can also protect your health by wearing gloves while cleaning animals cages or cat litter boxes.Avoid washing your pet in the bathtub(浴缸),but if you do,always disinfect(给----消毒)the tub immediately afterward.
      Be sure to bring your pet to the hospital for examinations every two weeks or month and whenever your pet is sick or injured.
      You can do a few other things to keep yourself and your pet healthy.Only give your pet food that has been planned ahead for them.It's not a good idea to share your food with your pet.Human food (like chocolate) can make animals sick.Never feed your pet raw meat because it can carry germs(细菌)that cause serious illness.
      Never give milk to cats.The only milk an animal should drink is from its mother.Cow's milk is not for pets,especially for cats,as it makes them sick.
      Finally,some animals aren't pets.Don't take in a wild or abandoned(被抛弃的)animal as a pet because it may have diseases that could make you or your family sick.Instead,turn to an animal rescue group that is trained in helping sick or abandoned animals.

18.When we're talking about the first level of stress,we mean the usual pressures of everyday life.For example:
(36)CThis is the kind of stress you might feel if you have a term math exam on Friday.You need to find time to do your normal homework every day,tutor the kid in the evening and attend dance class on Sunday.
(37)EThis is the stress that makes your palms (掌心) sweat before you recite your lines in the school play,give a presentation to your class,or tie safety belt to take your driver's test.
The lasting stress you feel over things that happen in your daily life.Maybe it's a misunderstanding with a good friend or worried about whether you'll ask your crush to a party.
Everyday stressors are not always easy,but they're not big disasters either.(38)B For example,the stress most of us feel before presenting in class makes us excited and helps us perform at our best.
The more practice we get at handling everyday challenges,the better we get at dealing with challenges in general.(39)A It's like learning to ride a bike as a kid:Bumps (碰撞) in the road can look pretty dangerous when you're falling and first starting out.But the more bumps we take,the more confident we become.Before we know it,we're balanced and in control.
Everyday stress simply calls our awareness to a situation that needs attention.(40)G We deal with these everyday stressors by studying for exams,practicing a class presentation,or thinking about how to work it out with a friend.Once we get to work on finding a way to solve the problem,the pressure and stress ease.

A.The better we get at dealing,the less stressed out we feel.
B.A bit of everyday stress can actually be good.
C.The stress of dealing with everything fills a busy week.
D.The stress from family feels stronger and lasts longer than everyday stress.
E.The stress you feel before an event that makes you nervous.
F.Taking charge of small things can help you feel better.
G.It reminds us to slow down,steady ourselves,focus,and get ready.
17.One of the hottest buzzwords(时髦词儿,流行语) in China right now is no doubt tuhao(土豪),a sarcastic(讽刺的),light-hearted term(术语) referring to rich people of little education,bad taste or lacking self-awareness.
This is yet another example of smart Chinese Internet users applying their creativity to an aged phrase and giving it new life and meaning.The term,which literally means"country bully(恶霸)",has been around since ancient times,when it was used to refer to rich and powerful rural landlords(地主).
However,the meaning of the word changed significantly when it was used a few years ago by Chinese players of the wildly popular computer game"World of Warcraft"(魔兽世界) to refer to rich players who spend big money buying powerful virtual weapons(武器).Because they don't improve their skills by playing,these players are considered silly,uncultured,and unprofessional(外行的).
But that is not the end of tuhao's new life story.The renewed popularity of the term also coincides with(同时发生)the emergence(出现)of the Chinese"nouveaux riches"(暴发户)一a generation of businessmen and women,property owners and entrepreneurs who have rapidly accumulated large amounts of wealth in recent years.
Similar to the many rags-to-riches(白手起家的) stories in human history,many Chinese billionaires who are on the global rich list do not come from well-educated or prestigious(声望很高的)backgrounds.Rather,they achieved financial success through powerful connections,smart investments,and by benefiting from China's economic boom.Many of them don't shy away from throwing their money around,yet we are often reminded of their lack of manners,taste and cultural sensitivity.
As a result,a term that was popularized in the gaming world has now also been introduced into daily conversation.
Trendy,young Internet users,who see themselves as the opposite of tuhao一not wealthy,but well-educated and cultured一have further popularized the term by using it in various comic situations.For example,the phrase"let's be friends,tuhao,"became hot after it appeared in an online joke about a conversation between a rich young man and a wise monk.
When Apple released(发布) its much anticipated iPhone 5S in September,Chinese Internet users accurately predicted the great popularity of the new golden-colored models among the Chinese consumers,and named it"tuhao gold",to make fun of the taste of rich Chinese people.
