24、A school bus is used to take children to and from school.

In the USA, about 450,000 school buses take more than 25 million children to and from school. The yellow school bus is a US icon (象征). Yellow became the color of school buses in the USA in 1939. Dr. Frank got the good idea. He said it was easy for people to see yellow buses and the black letters on them in early morning or late afternoon. That would make children safer.

There are not many school buses in Britain, and they are not yellow. They have trackers (追踪器) on them, so children are being tracked while they travel to and from school by bus. The trackers let parents know where the school bus is and whether their kids are on the bus.

Kindergarten (幼儿园) is a difficult time for some kids. It's the first time for them to go away from their parents. To make kids love their school, Japanese kindergartens and schools have colorful buses. The buses can easily make children want to take them to go to school. Even some parents want to take them, too!

School buses are becoming more and more popular in China now. It saves a lot of time for students to go to school.

25、Have you ever ridden a Ferris wheel lately? Can you imagine the flying feeling as you are pulled up to the top and then moved down to the bottom quickly again?

Today a Ferris wheel is usually 40 to 60 feet tall． That seems very high when you are on the top looking down． But the first Ferris wheel was 264 feet high – taller than a twenty-story building! Can you imagine the view from the top of that?

The first Ferris wheel was built for the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago． The people who planned the fair were looking for an attraction that would bring people to Chicago． George Ferris handed a drawing of a giant wheel that people could ride on． At first everyone laughed at his strange idea． But Mr． Ferris did not give up,  and finally the idea was accepted． The ride opened in June of 1893．

Today’s Ferris wheels have 12 to 16 seats,  which each carry 2 or 3 people． But that first one had 36 enclosed cars,  each holding 60 passengers． When filled,  it carried 2, 160 people． During that summer in Chicago,  about 1．5 million people rode the Ferris wheel．

After the fair the ride was moved to a nearby amusement park built especially to show off the wheel． In 1904,  it was moved again – to St． Louis for the Louisiana Purchase Exposition． After the fair there,  the wheel stood unused． In 1906 it was finally sold to a company for scrap metal (废铁)．

Luckily a Chicago bridge builder,  W．E． Sullivan,  figured out how to make a smaller Ferris wheel that could easily be taken apart and put together． In 1906 he started the company that still makes many of the Ferris wheels used today．

But,  whenever you ride one,  remember that it all began with George Ferris’s strange idea!

【1】How tall is a Ferris wheel today?

_________________________________________________________________

【2】What was the first Ferris wheel built for?

_________________________________________________________________

【3】What did people think of Ferris’s idea at first?

_________________________________________________________________

【4】How many people rode the first Ferris wheel during the summer in 1893?

_________________________________________________________________

【5】Compared with today’s Ferris wheels,  what was the first Ferris wheel like?

26、What does it mean to be green? Green is more than just a color. It also means taking special steps to protect the environment. Buying a green product is a small step everyone can take. Deciding whether a product is green, however, isn't always easy. Here is what we may keep in mind.

The materials of a product are usually our first focus（关注）. What is it made of? Are there any harmful chemicals in it? Green products are made of more natural materials.

Packaging（外包装） is important. How is a product packaged? Is it over packaged? We'd better choose glass, metal and paper packaging.

Location（地点） matters. Where was a product produced? Where are we buying it? Try to choose local products. It is a good idea to order directly from local farmer, shop at markets.

Look into what the company tells us about their product. It's easy to say that a product is “green” or “all natural”, but the words may be too good to be true. After all, companies try to make us believe that their products are environmentally responsible.

The greenest thing is certainly the one we don't buy. Things like food and clothing are necessary for life. But many others are not. Better than buying is keeping money in our pockets, reduces（减少）waste and keeps the planet healthy.

【1】The writer would suggest choosing a product that is _________.

A．over packaged

B．delivered from abroad

C．locally produced

D．made of unnatural materials

【2】In Paragraph 5 probably tells us _________.

A．we can easily understand the information.

B．we shouldn't completely believe the information.

C．we should widely spread the information

D．we shouldn't quickly forget the information.

A．

B．

C．

D．

【4】What would the writer most probably tell us according to the text?

A．Buying Green

B．Recycling Waste

C．Keeping Healthy

D．Reducing Energy Use

The next morning, when the room was quiet, a loud whistle was heard! The students were surprised, and the teacher at once looked around to discover the offender.

The blame（指责）fell on a bad boy who was often in trouble, he strongly denied（否认）whistling. However, his words were not believed, for he was not a truthful boy. The teacher brought him up to be punished.

Taking his hand , the teacher said, “Charles, you have done the right thing. You were honest and spoke the truth. I believe that you did not intend to whistle. I cannot punish you, after being so honest. “ Charles returned to his seat with a flushed face, and even the youngest child in the school felt proud of him. Every student could see how bravely he had acted.

Charles was truly a brave boy. He had done that which he knew to be right, even though the same time he might have been punished for it.
