Some people believe that schools will no longer be necessary in the near future．They said that because of the Internet，there is no longer any need for school buildings，classes and teachers．I can't imagine how our society will be．In fact，we should learn how to use new technology to make schools better．We should invent a new kind of school that is connected（连接）to libraries，museums，science centers，labs and even companies on the Internet Companies should make learning programs for schools．Scientists or professors could give talks through the Internet．TV stations could develop learning programs for students．Labs could set up websites to show new technology so students could see it on the Internet

2．Dolphins are not fish，but warm-blooded animals．They live in groups，and speak to each other in their own language．In this they are like other animals，such as bees and birds．But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals．Their brains are nearly the same size as human beings'，and they live a long time-at least twenty or thirty years．
Like some animals，dolphins use sounds to help them find their way around．They also use these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food．We now know they do not use their ears to receive these sounds，but the lower part of the mouth，called the jaw．
Strangely，dolphins seem to like man，and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people．There was a story about sailors in the 19th century．In a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand，they learnt to look for a dolphin called Jack．From 1871 to 1903 Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way．Then in 1903a passenger on a boat called The Penguin shot and wounded Jack．He recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the areaexcept for The Penguia

1．A small，white envelope stuck among the branches of our Christmas tree and it has been there for the past ten years or so．
It all began because my husband Justin hated Christmas-oh，not the true meaning of Christmas．Overspending was one thing，but compared to the difficult experience of choosing gifts-running around at the last minute to get a tie for Uncle Harry and a pair of gloves for Grandma…，spending money is nothing．I felt too tired to think of any special gifts．
Knowing Justin felt the same way，I decided one year not to buy the usual shirts，sweaters，ties and so on．I reached for something special just for Justin．The inspiration came in an unusual way．
Our son Kevin，who was 12that year，was wrestling （摔跤）at the junior level at the school he attended； and shortly before Christmas，there was a match against a team sponsored （赞助） by an inner-city church．These youngsters，dressed in such worn-out shoes that shoe strings seemed to be the only thing holding them together，while our boys were in their blue and gold uniforms and new wrestling shoes．
As the match began，I was shocked to see that the other team were wrestling without wearing helmets （头盔） to protect their ears．Well，our boys ended up defeating them．We took every weight class．
Justin，seated beside me，shook his head sadly，"I wish just one of them could have won，"he said．"They have a lot potential （潜力），but losing like this could take the heart out of them．"Justin loved kids-all kids，and he knew them，having coached little league football and baseball．That's when the idea for his present came．That afternoon，I went to a local sporting goods store and bought different kinds of wrestling helmets and shoes．I sent them to inner-city church without leaving my name．

The first thing to know is that the moon itself is never really blue．This is just an expression．In fact，the phrase"blue moon"has to do with the shape of the moon，not the color．
As the moon travels around the earth，it appears to change shape．We associate names with certain shapes of the moon．For example，when we can see a small part of the moon，it is called a crescent moon．A crescent is a shape that looks like the tip of a fingernail．When we cannot see the moon at all，it is called a new moon．
When we can see the whole moon，it is called a full moon．Usually，there is only one full moon every month．Sometimes，however there will be two full moons in one month．When this happens，the second full moon is called a blue moon．
Over the next 20years，there will only be 15blue moons．As you can see，a blue moon is a very rare event．This fact has led people to use the expression"once in a blue moon"to other very rare events in their lives．
