24、If you go to an American middle school on a Wednesday morning, you will hear kids talking about the show of American Idol (美国偶像) that they watched last night. Some have called it the most influential show in the history of television.
he American Idol show has been extremely successful since 2002. The most popular episode had nearly 38 million viewers. But why is the show so popular?
The idea of the show is this: everyday people get a chance to show their singing talent and become an “American Idol”, a famous pop star. Anyone in the country (between the ages of 15 and 28) can try out for a chance at becoming famous.
In fact, common people are the only ones who are allowed on the show. If you are a professional singer, you cannot be on American Idol.
The winners are usually people from small towns – people who sing in churches or bars, but have bigger dreams.
The winners of the contest get the chance to record an album. Famous stars such as Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood become famous from winning the show. So, it seems the contest really works.
The idea that anyone can be a star attracts people. All those hours of practicing in front of the mirror could lead to success. Even you could be the next “American Idol”.
【1】On Wednesday morning, US middle school kids often _____.
A. play ball games B. watch American Idol

25、 This Friday, across the US, kids are going to work with their parents instead of going to school. They can help their parents do some cleaning, send e-mails and etc. Because April 28 is Take Our Sons and Daughters to Work Day all over the US.
I still remember when this day started, I was very happy. But after only 40 minutes of driving around the city, I was very bored. I couldn't read my book in the car as I would get carsick(晕车)and my dad didn't like to turn on the radio. I got hot and uncomfortable. People wouldn't get into his taxi because they thought he already had a passenger: me--so nothing happened. It seemed years before we went out for lunch. In fact, I started to miss the school.
Although the purpose of the day is to give kids a chance to experience possible jobs in the future, I got something completely different from the day. I learned to value school life. Where else can you play with your friends, do science experiments and read great books all in one day?
You'll have to learn to love your job later in life, so learn to love school now. If you don't, try spending the day at work with your dad.
【1】Take Our Sons and Daughter to Work Day is celebrated on April 28 in the UK.
【2】The writer's father was probably a taxi driver.
【3】In fact, the day for the writer was not as interesting as she had expected.
【4】The writer experienced different jobs on that day.
【5】The writer tried to tell us to value school life now.
26、Land mines(地雷) are a serious problem in Africa. The wars ended many years ago, but millions of land mines were left behind. Every year thousands of people in Africa are hurt or killed by remaining land mines.
Some unlikely heroes are helping to solve the problem—rats! Bart Weetjens, an engineer from Belgium, came up with the idea. Bar realized that rats could use their powerful noses to find land mines so humans could safely remove them. He quit his job and began training his favourite animals as part of a program he calls HeroRATs.
HeroRATs are trained in a special school where they learn to use their noses to find land mines. First, trainers get the rats used to the human world. They let them listen to music and run around the office. The rats are taught to give a signal when they detect(探测) the smell of a land mine. When they correctly signaled that they’ve detected a land mine, they get a special treat. This reward of mashed bananas and peanuts makes them eager to do their work. Next, the rats are taught to walk on a leash at the end of a long pole. After a total of nine months of training, the rats have to pass several tests. Once the rats pass the tests, they are ready to start finding real land mines with their handlers.
Rats can safely walk on the ground where there are land mines because they weigh much less than humans. They are too light to set off the weapons. No HeroRATs has even been killed by a land mine. The rats can inspect(检查) an entire field in only an hour. When a HeroRAT finds a land mine, humans carefully remove it. Once the rats’ work is done and the land mines are removed, fields are safe. The land can be used for farming or building. Children can play there without fear.
People who work with HeroRATs are proud to help make their countries safe. These special rats are saving lives and are true heroes.
