Steven Cleaver has some outdoor activity ideas for families. The activities will drive your family’s sadness away. Steven is the Executive Director（执行理事）of Horizons for Youth, an organization in Massachusetts that has worked on children’s enviromental education for more than 60 years.
We asked Steven to share some outdoor activities that families can do together. Here’s what he told us.
Going to a nature center---In State Audubon societies, there are usually smaller nature centres. Naturalists are ready to answer kids’ questions so parents don’t need to worry about teaching the subject matter themselves.
Hiking---Going on a hike is a great way to go outdoors and get some exercise. State parks can offer free paths to hike along and many fields to explore.
Gardening--- Gardening is a wonderful family activity. Not only can the whole family get involved, but everyone can benefit from the harvest. Since it’s winter, you might just start with a family plan for the garden. The garden can be a cooperative effort where parents can teach their children teamwork. Assign tasks to each family member. Who plans? Who waters?
Fruit picking---It’s a great seasonal outdoor activity. Children get to see how fruits grow and everyone gets to enjoy the fruits which they pick.
Cleaning up---Taking part in nature clean-ups or volunteering to do path maintenance(维护)teaches kids that they have the ability to do something positive for the environment and communities. When parents get involved, they can set a good example for their children to follow, which will help children realize their responsibility to protect the environment.

THE KING’S SPEECH---OSCAR    WINNER
A lot of stories are about friendship and courage. They have been told in many different ways. It is just something that people need to be told from time to time that perhaps people would grow bored of it. Well, director Tom Hooper’s The King’s Speech,a historical movie about the British royal family, won the Oscar on 27^th, February, 2011. The movie tells about the true story of a King George VI and it also tells the story of a friendship between the king and his doctor. They find something special about the word “courage”.
Just as the name of the movie, the story was simple but moving. Maybe The King’s Speech is just an ordinary story, though it won the Oscar. Throughout the honored movies in Oscar’s these years, it’s not difficult to find out that they seldom follow a traditional Hollywood way. The traditional way of Hollywood means shiny actors, famous director, a lot of money, 3D technology or something else.
With the development of technology, our native movies prefer to follow the traditional Hollywood way. But the results were the decrease of the good comments(评论). What can we learn from that? The standard(标准) for a good movie is not how well- known the actor is, how famous the director is, or how eye-catching the usage of the special skills are, but the connotation(内涵) or the theme the movie includes!
小题1:Is The King’s Speech about friendship and courage?
小题2: When did The King’s Speech win the Oscar?
小题3: What does the traditional way of Hollywood mean?
小题4:Which is more important to a good movie, famous actor or the theme the movie includes?
小题5: What is the passage mainly about?

Charter schools in the US operate with public money but without many of the rules that govern traditional public schools. In the United States the rules for charter schools are different from state to state. But in general these schools have greater freedom to decide what and how to teach.
A charter school might have nothing to do with the local public school system. It might be started by teachers, parents, community groups or a profit-making business.
Forty-seven million students go to traditional public schools. And more than a million students go to charter schools.
And now a group of charter schools have formed the Green Charter Schools Network. The idea is to have environment friendly school buildings but also to go further than that.
The schools teach students to give lots of time and attention to the community problems that affect them and the environment. For example, young children grow vegetables in a school garden and learn about healthy eating. Older students help recycle waste from restaurants. And local schools share what they grow in community gardens with people in need.
Jim McGrath is president of the Green Charter Schools Network. He says there are about two hundred “green” charter schools across the United States. And the Green Charter Schools Network holds its first national conference this October in Minnesota. Supporters of green schools say their goal is to let the movement be popular across the country.
小题1:. Are the rules for charter schools the same in the US?  
小题2:. How many students go to charter schools? 
小题3:. What do students in charter schools often do?
小题4:. Do teachers teach students to protect the environment or to know the Network?  
小题5:. Why do supporters hope charter schools to be popular across the country?

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. I’m here today to share a good lesson with you. It is a true story about an overseas student   71  in Germany.
After years of hard work, this student graduated with amazing achievements. Everyone thought he was going to get a good   72  easily and have a bright future. But to his disappointment, he was not even given the   73  for an interview! The third time he was refused, he couldn’t help telephoning the company to ask   74   they didn’t want him. The answer was simple. “We don’t offer jobs to   75   people in Germany.”
What was wrong, you might wonder? The truth is, shortly after he arrived in Germany, this clever student found that it was   76  to skip buying subway tickets. So   77   save money, he often went without a ticket. As a result, he had been caught without a ticket in the subway
  78   times.
From this story, we learn that we may get short-term benefits in dishonest ways, but the truth will   79  sooner or later and the cost is high. So remember: honesty is the   80  rule.
That’s all for my speech. Thank you!
