1、 At just 12 years old, Leonardo Nicanor Quinteros is still in middle school, 1. but he has already run his own free school. He helps other children with their studies.
Leonardo loves to study. After seeing some of his classmates trying to keep up at school, he decided to do something about it. Last year, he told his grandmother that he wanted to have his own school. 2. 他要奶奶帮他把学校建在他们家隔壁。She agreed. Today, the free school has nearly 40 students. The boy acts as teacher and headmaster. 3. He is proud that what he does has already made a big difference to many of the children there.
The school is not much to look at. It's made mostly of adobe(土砖) and is pretty small. 4. 但是,在邻居们的帮助下,学校正变得越来越好。Leonardo lives 20 minutes away from his own school. But every day he gets on his bicycle after coming home from school and rides to his own school. He teaches classes on different subjects, like math and grammar. Sometimes, 5. when his students cannot come, he gives the classes at night to make sure they don't get behind on their studies.
Leonardo does his best to help students improve their subjects. Many admit (承 认) that they have improved a lot. “He helped me to pass the tests, now I'm in Third Grade,” one of the students said.

25、Charlotte’s Web(网) is popular among readers of all ages. It is a popular book and it was made into a film and a TV show. It is almost a story about animals.
There is one human, who has an equal (平等的) relationship with the animal characters. Fern Arable is a little girl. She likes a weak little pig. Its name is Wilbur. But Wilbur is sold to Fern’s uncle Homer Zuckerman, who’s a farmer. It’s a lonely life there for Wilbur. He has no friends, and other animals look down on (瞧不起) him. But his life turns around when he meets Charlotte, a spider(蜘蛛). She becomes a great friend to Wilbur.
There is bad news for Wilbur. He is going to be killed as food for others. It seems that there is no hope for him until Charlotte comes up with a clever plan to save him. She uses her web(网) to write messages about Wilbur. Messages in a spider’s web are never heard of by everyone. Humans who see the messages think that they must come from God! Wilbur becomes famous enough to join a competition(比赛). Although he doesn’t win, the famous web makes sure that he will not be killed.
However, if there is happiness in stories, there must be a little sadness. The sadness in this story is Charlotte’s death. In the end, saving Wilbur made her tired, and after giving birth to her babies, Charlotte dies.
And then, most of the new spiders disappear. Wilbur believes he will be left with no friends. However, the three youngest and smallest baby spiders, named Joy, Nellie and Aranea, stay and become his new friends.

26、Scientists have long believed one way to stop the Earth’s air from warming is by planting more trees. The idea is that more trees will take in or absorb(吸收) some of the CO2 in the air. CO2 is a gas released by cars, factories and other human activities. The gas traps heat in the Earth’s air, which warms the planet. However, two new studies have found that trees may not be as helpful in reducing CO2 as thought.
The first study was done at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. Researchers pumped(打气) extra CO2 into a test area where green trees were growing. The trees grew thirty-four percent faster during the first three years. However, in time, the trees slowed to about their normal growth rate. The scientists say this is because trees need other nutrients(营养素), such as nitrogen(氮).
In the second study, researchers from Duke and Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine examined the soil(泥土) around trees. They discovered that as the leaves broke down into the soil, all the carbon was not trapped in the soil. Much of it was let into the air as CO2.
The findings of the two studies were published last month in Nature magazine. They suggest there is limited(有限的) value in planting trees to reduce the CO2 pollution in the air.
Forest planting has been a part of negotiations(谈判) on a world agreement to reduce greenhouse gases that scientists believe cause global warming. The United States, Canada, Japan and some other countries have supported the idea. But this new research suggests the idea is not as effective as environmental activists(积极分子) had thought. Scientist Ram Oren of Duke University led the study on tree growth. He says that earlier estimates(估计) on the ability of forests to absorb CO2 were overly hopeful.
Some other scientists say the research provides some of the first evidence on how trees react(反应) to CO2. Some other scientists say the research disputes(质疑) a belief among some coal and power companies. The companies say that more CO2 in the air will not create harmful global warming. Instead, they say it will increase forests and other plants.
【1】Why did the researchers put trees in extra CO2 in the first study?
A. To learn whether trees can still absorb CO2 under extreme conditions.
B. To get more oxygen from these trees.
C. To know how much CO2 that trees can absorb.
D. To see the effect of CO2 on the growth rate of these trees.
【2】What happened to the leaves falling from the trees in the second study?
A. They broke down and the main parts turned into oxygen.
B. They broke down and the carbon had mainly turned into CO2.
C. They broke down and the carbon was mainly absorbed in the soil.
D. They absorbed more CO2.
【3】Scientist Ram Oren thinks that common beliefs of the tree’s ability to absorb CO2 are __________.
A. just right B. not acceptable
C. a bit too cheerful D. too dangerous
27、The game of telephone is a classic ice breaker and party game. It’s easy to set up and a lot of fun to play. You and your friends will try to pick a word or phrase, “pass it on” by whispering(耳语) it to someone next to you, and have fun seeing how much it changed during the game. All you will need to play is a couple of friends, a word or phrase, and a whisper.
Get everyone in place.
Although the game of telephone is simple to play, you will need to arrange(安排) the players in a way that supports the game. Have everyone stand in either a line or a circle. Players should be spaced far enough apart that they won’t overhear the word when it isn’t their turn. Proper position is important when playing telephone.
Start the game.
Choose a person to start the game. Make the person think of a word or give a certain word to him or her. And he or she should whisper it to the person next to them. The pronunciation of the word should sound like many others’ as the idea is to see how much it changes by the game’s end. Once the word has been told to the next person, they will whisper it to the person next to them.
Continue whispering the word.
Players continue listening to the word and repeating what they think they heard to the person next to them. This is done until the last person in the line or circle is told the word. Every person should have heard the word or phrase by the end of the game.
See how much the word changed.
Once the last person hears the word or phrase, they will say what they think they heard out-loud. This is compared to the original word that the game started with. This is the moment when all the players get to learn just how much the word or phrase changed through their “telephone line”.
