　(B)

More and more advertisements appear on the Web. You have to be careful not to be fooled or tricked(欺骗) by the advertisements on the Internet. Something is said to be a bargain(便宜物品), but it isn’t always cheap. And some so-called new things just have a new outside.

However, shopping online is a kind of fashionable(时尚的) thing today. I love to buy things of everyday use, so I often get lots of information about them on websites online. For example, if I want an MP3, I can choose my favourite one, and look for what the users like or don’t like about it, then decide whether to buy or not. And at the same time, you don’t have to go to a shop or walk around a crowded shopping area, so you don’t have to waste much time. The Internet is really useful for shopping, but be careful not to spend too much.

　　　 Albert Einstein was born in 1879. As a boy he was not happy in school. He seemed to be slower　 than others and he often failed in his exams. Most of his teachers did not like him. His parents, however, loved him very much. They often said to the teachers, Albert is a bright boy. He failed in some of the exams because he had no interest in those subjects. They believed their son would do something great. One day, the Einsteins and their friends were having a picnic by the riverside. Someone said, See how the other children play and laugh, but not Albert. He just sits and looks off across the river. Albert's mother heard this and said, Albert is quiet, because he's thinking. Let's wait and see. He'll become a great scientist, I believe. She was fight. Later, Albert became one of the greatest scientists in the world. He won the Nobel Prize for physics in 1921.

( C )

We have rather a small house, with only two bedrooms. You can think our alarm(恐慌), then, when Aunt Clara wrote to say that she was coming to stay with her family for the weekend. Her family, I should say, has four boys, all under the age of twelve.

I sent off a telegram(电报) at once, and explained(解释) in it that our house was too small. Aunt Clara called us up the next morning. ‘ I forgot to explain,’ she said in her sweetest voice, “the boys will be bringing a couple of tents (帐篷).”

Even so my wife couldn’t make free from fear (害怕). It was true that we had a large garden, but there was still the problem of feeding (喂养) four growing boys.

“And what if it rains ?”she asked.

But Saturday morning turned out to be bright and clear when I went to the station to meet Aunt Clara. I tried to squeeze (往车里塞) three of the boys, together with the luggage (行李), into the back of the car. The youngest sat in front, with Aunt Clara and me.

“I didn’t see the tents among your luggage,’”I turned over and said to David, the eldest boy.

“The tents !”said Aunt Clara. “Oh！We left them in the luggage van(行李车厢).”
