One pleasant New-year morning, Edward’s father gave him two bright, new silver dollars. He had wishes for a long time【1】（buy）some new books. As he ran down the street to the bookstore, he saw a poor German family, the father, mother and three children【2】(walk) in the cold wind. “I 【3】(wish) you a Happy New Year.” said Edward, as he was passing on happily. The man shook his head, for he could not understand or speak English. But he 【4】(point) to his mouth, and to the children, as if to say, “These little ones 【5】(have) nothing to eat for a long time.”

Edward quickly understood that these people 【6】(be) poor and in trouble. He took out his dollars, and gave one to the man, and the other to his wife.

“I【7】(buy) no books,” said he. “I gave my money to some poor people, who seemed 【8】(be) very hungry and tired. I think I【9】(wait) for my books till next New Year.”“ My dear boy,” said his father, “here are some books. I give them to you, more as a reward for your goodness of heart than as a New-year gift.”

“Always be ready to help people around you and every year of your life【10】(be) a HAPPY NEW YEAR!”

You will find traffic noise disappearing as soon as you arrive in Venice(威尼斯). So as you walk down the narrow (狭窄的) streets, you only have to avoid crowds of people. About 19 million travelers visit Venice for the enjoyable environment, art and food each year.
Seeing Venice on foot is the best. You can walk through the city in about an hour. Look around St. Mark's Basilica and the Doge's Palace. But you should know walking along the streets isn't as easy as travelling on the city's canals(运河). The canals are Venice's “Streets”. And you can enjoy the Grand Canal, the Rialto Bridge and many wooden buildings.
Venice is fantastic. You shouldn't miss it in your life. No matter how long you're in Venice, it will leave a pleasant feeling on you.

Teenage life — better now，or in the past?
Does this situation sound familiar (熟悉)？
You are complaining (抱怨)to your parents about something. Maybe your computer isn't powerful enough to play the latest games. Then you hear...
When I was your age, there weren't any computers or video games. And I didn't get a bike until I was sixteen. And it was second-hand.
So, is it really true that life is better for teenagers now? It is certainly true that many teenagers have got more things nowadays. So parents have got more money to spend on each child. And many things are cheaper than they were when our parents were children.
Forty years ago, no one could imagine a world with tiny computers and amazing smartphones. And now these things are necessary — we can't imagine living without them!
However, technology often means we spend more time at home. And often it is just us with our computer or television. Teenagers don't do enough exercise. And, although young people still get on well with their friends，some people think teenagers today don't have so many social activities as they did in the past.
What do you think? How is teenage life better these days?

No one knows when the first kite was made. The first record of a kite was more than 2,000 years ago in China. Han Xin, the leader of an army, wanted to bring down a king. He decided to dig a tunnel (隊道）into the king's palace. He flew a kite over the wall of the palace to make sure the length (长度）of its string (线).In this way, he could determine how long the tunnel should be.His men in the tunnel took the kite string with them. When they reached the end of the string, they knew to dig up.
Kites have been flown in Japan for hundreds of years. In the 1700s, kites were flown in autumn to give thanks for a good harvest. They were also flown to send good wishes to couples who had their first son. Today in Japan, kites are often flown as part of a celebration, such as the beginning of a new year. And kite festivals are held each year in many parts of the country.
Kites have been used for scientific purposes in the western world. In 1752，Benjamin Franklin tied a key to a kite and flew it in a storm to find out that lightening was a form of electricity. In the 1890s，Lawrence Hargrave invented the box kite to test ideas about flight. From 1898 until 1933，the United States Weather Bureau (气象局） used box kites to collect weather data. The Wright brothers also experimented (试验）with kites. What they learnt helped them make the first airplane flight in 1903.
