阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。

If you take a look at the best-selling books in the UK these days, it is almost certain that there will be a lot of autobiographies (自传) in that list. Bill Clinton, Nelson Mandela and actor Michael J Fox have all written them. An autobiography is the story of a person’s life, written by that person. It is usually a very famous person who might tell us all about their childhood, how they became famous and any other interesting things that have happened in their lives.

Traditionally, someone would write an autobiography when they were older because they had had a long, successful life. However, these days there are many magazines with stories and photos of the stars which sell very well. Reality TV shows are extremely popular and lots of people become famous very easily just from being on the TV rather than being able to sing or act well. As a result, people become famous very quickly and as soon as they are famous, a lot of money can be made from writing an autobiography, even if they are very young.

So now you can find an autobiography from almost everyone who is in the public eye. Even though we can follow the lives of the stars very closely on TV or in magazines nowadays, we maybe don’t know how they live their lives from day to day. Autobiographies often give the information we never knew about the stars. The British public are very curious to find out more so they are very eager to read autobiographies.

Not every star wants to write though. Sometimes stars employ writers to write their life stories for them. The writer will interview the stars, listen to everything they want to say, record interviews and then write books based on their words. David Beckham did this with his book My Side.

Not everyone likes to read books regularly but they might like to read about the lives of stars. Autobiographies are helping to get more British people reading books. About 100 million autobiographies are sold in Britain every year. More stars depend on them for extra income and as more of these books appear in the shops, more people are sure to keep buying them.

The teachers are preparing their classrooms for the start of classes. As their principal, I was energized by their enthusiasm. Everywhere I went, I asked the same question, “How are you doing?” And everywhere I went, I received the same answer, “just fine.”

There was only one person whom I didn’t quite believe. It was her first year of teaching. Her classroom was inviting. She seemed well-prepared. On the outside everything seemed just fine, but there was something in her eyes that mad me ask that question again and again.

Then came Wednesday. “How are you doing?” I asked. “Mr. Boyce, I think I’m going to make it,” she said. The office was full of teachers and noise, but the voices became quiet as the young teacher continued.

“Monday night, after our open house (开放参观日)，I just didn’t think I could do it. There were so many parents and children, and I felt under great pressure. When I told my family I didn’t think I could do it , they said I had to try.

“The next morning school started. I thought I was ready, but there were so many of them and their needs were so different. I just didn’t know how I could manage.

“I said to my parents if I had fewer kids I could handle it. So they asked me which children I would get rid of. But I couldn’t decide. I’d only had them for one day, but I couldn’t think of a single child I could do without. They’re mine. I can’t do without any of them. I don’t know how, but I’m just going to do the best I can and I really think I’m going to make it. “

There wasn’t a dry eye in the office when I replied, “I think you are, too.”

As the weather cools across the United States, a growing number of Americans visit farms. They harvest apples, enjoy hay wagon rides and walk in the fields. These people are called agri-tourists. They improve the economy of rural areas and help local farmers increase their profits. It is reported that Americnas spent more than $700 million on the agri-tourism activity in the United States last year.

On Mike Dunn’s farm, school children are laughing and playing. They come to have a hands-on experience of what it’s like to be on a farm. In a corn field maze, the corn is cut into tricky passageways that make it hard to find a way out. Their teacher says they come around once a year.

He says so many people visited that he soon increased the number of activities in which people can take part. The agri-tourism earnings might be 30 percent of the entire farm income.

The health problems about cloned animals , particularly those who appear healthy but have hidden illnesses or problems that appear unexpectedly later in life, have the potential to cause real risks to the safety of the food products from those animals. Ian Wilmut, a lead scientist involved in the creation of Dolly, the first cloned animal, has warned that even small imbalances in a clone’s hormone, protein, or fat levels could bring its milk or meat into danger.

As part of its risk assessment on animal cloning, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) concluded that milk and meat from cloned animals and their offspring (后代)are as safe to eat as products from conventional animals. The FDA further announced that it would not require food products from cloned animals or their offspring to be labeled as such.

Consumer watchdog groups pointed out that the FDA’s analysis was based on limited data supplied mainly from the cloning companies themselves. In addition, while food safety is an obvious concern of consumers, it is not the only issue that makes people uncomfortable with animal cloning. For example, surveys indicate that 63 percent of consumers would not buy food from cloned animals even if it were labeled as “safe”. Concerns about the morality of cloning, as well as concerns for animal welfare, lead a big majority of people to oppose cloning animals for food. However, these issues were not considered by the FDA. Without labels to identify cloned foods, consumers who oppose animal cloning would be forced to make purchases against their principles without knowing. Consumers have a right to know how their food is produced so they can make informed decisions about what they buy and what they feed their families.

1.What is Ian Wilmut’s attitude towards food products from cloned animals?

A. Approving. B. Cautious.

C. Uncertain. D. Indifferent.

A. consumers didn’t believe what the FDA said

B. the FDA took consumers’ concerns seriously

C. consumers were well-informed about the safety of food

D. the FDA forced consumers to buy things they didn’t want

4.What is the main idea of the text?

A. Concerns for animal welfare.

B. The problems with animal cloning.

C. Why people are uncomfortable with animal cloning.

D. Concerns about the food products from cloned animals.

When trying to learn some skills of doing homework, you need help from parents or other grown-ups. 1. Someday, you’ll be older and you’ll need to do things without their help.

Do you hate your job? As far as I know, many young people liked complaining about their jobs. When my uncle started working about five years ago, he couldn’t stop complain about his work every time he got back from work. He considered his work simple and bored as he just needed to type works by famous writers. Therefore, as time went by, he found his work real helpful. When he was typing the works, he also read it. He learned lot from the works by famous writers and about two years later, his writing was greatly improved. He had his first books published last year and now he’s working for his second book.
