It was a fine day. The White {#blank#}1{#/blank#} got up at seven o'clock. They had breakfast at seven forty. And then they went to the park. They took a basket(篮子) of food and a carpet (地毯). The park was not far {#blank#}2{#/blank#} their home, so they rode bikes there. When they got to the park, it was half {#blank#}3{#/blank#} eight. Mr. and Mrs. White were talking with {#blank#}4{#/blank#}. Their son, Ted, was playing with a ball. Their daughter, Jenny, was taking {#blank#}5{#/blank#}.

    He comes from a small village far from any big town. He is the son of a farmer. He is Wu Yulu, a common {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (invent) from a village.

    Even when he was a child, he took a great interest {#blank#}2{#/blank#} robots. He made his first mini-electrical machine at the age of 8. He worked on robots all day. Local villagers thought Wu Yulu was crazy. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}, he never gave up his dream. He spent most of his time on robots with different {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (skill) and didn't care about farming.

    So far, he {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (create) more than thirty robots. Some clean, some wash the dishes, and {#blank#}6{#/blank#} pour water, light cigarettes or serve food.

    "I will never stop {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (make) robots and I'm glad that I have kept on." said Wu Yulu. "In 2009, I was invited to {#blank#}8{#/blank#} exhibition(展览) in Shijiazhuang with my robots. I am {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (pride) that my robots were on show along with Shenzhou VII."

    Influenced by Wu Yulu, his son Wu Yangyang loves robots, too. He is so crazy about robots {#blank#}10{#/blank#} he always loses himself in his inventions. In the future, he and his father Wu Yulu will surely invent more useful robots.

—Yes. And I am an {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (America).

    Today Helen went on a school trip. She visited the science museum {#blank#}1{#/blank#}it was really interesting. She{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (get) there so fast by train. She saw some farms and villages {#blank#}3{#/blank#}the way. At the museum, she {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(learn) a lot about robots. She didn't know they  {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (can) play chess with people. It was so cool! Then the guide taught her {#blank#}6{#/blank#} to make a model robot. She took a lot of great {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(photo), too. After that, she went to the shop and bought some {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (love) things for her parents. {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (it) weren't expensive. All in all, it was {#blank#}10{#/blank#} exciting day.

    Summer was coming and it was getting hotter. Mrs, King got {#blank#}1{#/blank#}early one morning and went to the market after she {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (have) breakfast. She knew that everything was cheap there before eight o'clock. She wanted to buy many {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (vegetable) for her family. Suddenly she saw there were a {#blank#}4{#/blank#} of people around a farmer. She hurried there and found that he was selling some beef.

    "How {#blank#}5{#/blank#} does it cost? "a woman asked.

    "Two dollars a kilo."

    "Oh, how cheap it is!"Mrs. King said to herself. "John {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (like) beef very much. I'd better buy some here,"

    When she got {#blank#}7{#/blank#} with five kilos of beef, her son was happy but her husband got angry.

    "What a silly woman!" said Mr. King.↑"How shall we keep it fresh in such hot weather?"

    "Your aunt is very rich," said Mrs. King. "Why not go and borrow some money{#blank#}8{#/blank#} her? Then we'll be able to buy a fridge."

    Mr. King agreed and they began to teach their five year-old son what {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(say) when they were at his aunt's house.

    "John," Mr. King said, "how can we keep the beef fresh?"

    "That's easy," the boy said{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (happy). "By eating it!"
