What will happen in 100 years? What will the changes be? Can you imagine? The population is growing faster. There will be more people in the world and they will live longer than people now. Maybe some of the rich can live on the moon. Hand-held computers will be much smaller and more useful and there will be at least one in every home. The Internet speed will be much faster. People will work fewer hours than they do now and they will have more free time for sports, watching TV and traveling. Traveling will be much easier and cheaper. There will also be changes in our food. No one will eat meat every day, they will eat more fruit and vegetables instead. Work in the future will be different, too. Dangerous and hard work can be done by robots. Because of this, many people will not have enough work to do. This will be a problem.

    Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don't agree with them.

    Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources, we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.

    In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.

    I'm Sara, I'm a middle school student. At school, we have nine subjects -- math, English, Chinese. science, geography, history, art, P.E. and music.

    My mother is a Chinese teacher and she says Chinese is interesting and important (重要的). I like Chinese, I always read Chinese books before 1 go to bed. I also like history, it is my favorite subject. Mr. Brown is great fun. In his history class, I can learn many interesting stories(故事).

    Mr. Green is my math teacher. He says math is useful and interesting, but I think it is boring. My science teacher, Mrs. Smith, is nice. I listen to (听) her carefully (认真的) in class. But I can't do well in the science exam(考试). I don't know why. This subject is really difficult for me.

    We always have art, P.E. or music in the afternoon. For me, the classes in the afternoon are fun amt relaxing. In P.E. class, I like to play ping-pong with my P.E. teacher, Mrs. Miller plays very well.

根据材料内容简要回答下列问题

    Breakfast cereals(谷类早餐食物) are popular in many countries. In the USA, they are served in nine out of ten homes. They are made from grains(谷物)such as corn, wheat and rice. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    In the beginning, cereals were healthy food. In the late 1800s, some doctors in the USA made them in hospitals and gave them to their patients. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} However, this soon changed, and from the 19305, some companies began to add sugar to their cereals and sell them as children's food. They made a lot of money this way, but they weren't healthy food anymore. These days some children s cereals are 50% sugar {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    This is how cereal in different shapes, like stars and balls is made

    First, the grain is taken to the factory, where it is cleaned and checked.

    Then it is prepared for cooking. It is made into flour(粉) and mixed with other ingredients(原料){#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    When it is soft, it is put into special machines which make it into shapes like stars, circles or even letters.

    The shapes are baked（烘烤） in an oven to dry them. Then they are "puffed "in another machine to make them light and full of air.

    Have you ever heard of the story The Ant and the Grasshopper(蚱蜢) ?

    One fine winter day some ants were working in the field. They were very busy. Just then a grasshopper passed by." Good day, kind ants," said the grasshopper, "I am very hungry. Will you lend me a little food? I have nothing to eat. I will pay you before the next autumn."

    "You have no food of your own? Why didn't you gather any food during the summer? You know there was much food in the field last summer. What were you doing then?" asked an old ant. The grasshopper answered, "I was singing all day and night during the summer. So I had no time to gather any food. Please lend me some." "Well, then, "said the ant, "you could sing all the summer, and you also could dance all the winter. You only played and did not work during the summer. We'll never lend you any food." And the ants went on working.

    The purpose of students who come to school is to study.  But studying needs right ways. The following opinions are ways of studying.

    The best time to read is morning. Because in the morning, the air is fresh and our minds are clear.

    When we study, we must be patient(有耐心的). If we don't understand a text well, we must read it again. We should not read the next until we have learned the first one well.

    When we are studying, we must put our hearts into the book. We cannot read absentmindedly(心不在焉),or we couldn't get anything form the book while we are reading.

    We must always ask "why". If we can't understand well, write it down and ask our teachers or parents, brothers or friends, in any possible ways.

    Though there are many ways for studying, however, the above mentioned will be helpful if we can keep them in heart.
