During rush hours, you never know when a bus or a taxi might come. Walking might be too tiring. If it's about two or three miles away, which kind of transportation will you choose? {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    Bike shares are a growing convenience in many cities around the world. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Riders usually have to pick up a bike at a self-serve station and return it at another station later. However, a Chinese bike-sharing company called Ofo, is bringing this idea to a new level.

    Like any other bike-sharing service, Ofo users can get a bike at any time. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Instead, they can pick one up wherever and whenever they please. To get a bicycle, riders with the app are able to find the nearest one. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} After parking the bike, all they have to do is to lock it.

    This Chinese company already has its bicycle throughout China, the United States and Singapore. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} “We want to reach more cities, connect more bikes and serve more people”, said Ofo founder Dai Wei.

A.Thousands of bike sharing programs have been set up by the governments.

B.When a rider is done with the bike, returning is just as easy.

C.This month, 500 Ofo bicycles will be set up in Cambridge, England.

D.For short journeys, riding a bike could be the best solution.

E.The big difference is that they don't need to find a self-serve station.

①Jack let me play with his favorite toy car. I made it go too fast and it crashed(摔坏).  {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

②All my friends have many new clothes. But my parents can't afford them. I think it is a shame(遗憾的事).  {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

③My close friend always wants me to give him the answers in exams. But I really don't want to do that.  {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

④My friend Jenny always takes a walkman with her and listens to loud music. I think it may hurt her ears. But she doesn't seem to care.  {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

⑤Sam saw some bird eggs under a tree when we had a trip in the forest. He wanted to take them home. I stopped him. He was angry with me.  {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

A. Try to tell him it is wrong of you two to do that. Then try to help them with his lessons in your spare time.

B. Tell him that he is doing something bad to animals. If he takes the eggs home, how will their mother feel when she can't find them?

C. You can get some examples from papers, magazines or TV shows, and let her know it's really bad.

D. Say sorry to him first. And try to repair it. Or you may give him your favorite toy car instead. Or to buy a new one for him.

E. A person's look or appearance(外表)doesn't mean everything. The most important thing is to study hard and have a good future.

    Note-taking is a skill that can help you do well in all your schoolwork. It can make you confident(自信的)when you are studying. But unluckily, most students don't know how to take notes.

{#blank#}1{#/blank#} If your teacher writes notes on the blackboard, that's great. You can copy them or write down the most important facts of all in class. Different teachers do things differently. For example, some teachers may focus on（关注）lots of dates and facts in class, but they only write the important ones on the blackboard. Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may say something important again and again.

{#blank#}2{#/blank#}Don't be afraid to ask your teacher to repeat what you miss. If your teacher speaks too fast and you can't follow what he is saying, you can ask him after class.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}Comparing your notes with your classmates' can be good for your learning. It can also help you and your classmates correct some mistakes.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}Note-taking also needs organization. Keep notes for each subject in one notebook, so that you can find everything easily when a test comes.

{#blank#}5{#/blank#}If you decide to recopy your notes every evening, you'll surely have less time to watch TV. But you'll save time in the coming test.

    These days, "What do you want to do when you grow up?" is the wrong question to ask children in the USA. The question should be: "What job are you doing now？"American companies are employing more and more young people as consultants(顾问)to evaluate(评估)products for child consumers. The 12-to-19 age group spends more than $100 billion a year in the USA. Specialist agencies help manufacturers ask kids about all the latest trends in clothes, food and other markets. One company, Teenage Research Unlimited, has groups of teenagers who give their decisions on products like jeans. Another company, Doyle Research Associated, holds two-hour meetings in a room called the "imaginarium". Children are encouraged to play games to get into a creative mood. They have to write down any ideas which come into their heads.

    Some manufacturers prefer to do their own market research. The software company Microsoft runs a weekly "Kid's Council" at its headquarter in Seattle, where a group of school children give their decision on the latest products and suggest new ones. They are called young consultants. One 11-yearold consultant, Andrew Cooledge, told them they should make more computer games which are suitable for both boys and girls. Payments for the work are increasingly attractive, Andrew Cooledge was paid$250 and given some software. However, even if their ideas are valuable, the children will never make money. They cannot have the copyright to their ideas.

    When all the housewives went to the new supermarket, they had one great hope in mind: to be the lucky customer. Then they did not have to pay for their shopping, for this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised. It said, "Remember, once a week, one of our customers gets free goods. This may be YOUR lucky day!"

    For several weeks, Mrs Read hoped to become a lucky customer, like many of her friends did, and she never gave up hope. Her dear husband tried to advise her not to do so, but he failed. She always dreamed of the day when the manager of the super-market would come up to her and say, "Madam, this is your lucky day. Everything in your basket is free. ”

    One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy some tea. She dashed（猛冲）back to the supermarket, got the tea, and went towards the cash desk(付款处). As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket come up to her, "Madam." he said and held out his hand, "I want to congratulate you! You are the lucky customer and everything you have in your basket is free!"
