Music touches our hearts and shortens (缩短) the distance between people of different countries. The super star Jay Chou has cooperated with the American NBA star Kobe Bryant to create a song named TheHeavenandEarthChallenge. That's a song written by Jay Chou whose favorite sport is basketball. It expresses the love for basketball. And it encourages young people to be more confident. Jay Chou has learned much from Kobe's sports spirit. In the song, Jay Chou does most of the singing part while Kobe plays a part of a rapper (说唱者). People can download the ring tone(铃声) of the song from the Internet.

B. What's the news today? Chaska, a one-year-old bear, lived in a US zoo. Chaska likes reading newspapers. |

D. Do I look cool? A monkey in Indonesia (印度尼西亚) takes a camera from a visitor. He takes many pictures of himself. |

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.
{#blank#}5{#/blank#}
A. Water is added and the mixture is boiled. B And doctors say children shouldn't eat them too often. C. Finally, the cereal is packed into boxes, ready for the shops. D. And they are usually eaten with milk, or with yogurt and fruit. E. At first they used whole grains, without sugar or salt and they didn't taste good. F. Breakfast cereals are popular. |
We live on the earth. We use the sea around us. What do we take from the ocean? And what do we give to it?
We take fishes from the ocean—millions of kilograms of fish, every year, to feed millions of people. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}We take minerals (矿物) from the ocean. We can get salt by evaporating (蒸发) seawater. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}such as gold. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}Seaweed (海草) becomes food of many kinds—even candy and ice cream—as well as medicine. Believe it or not, fresh water is another gift from the sea. We can't drink ocean water. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}But ocean water becomes fresh water when the salts are removed. In the future, we will find ourselves depending more and more on fresh water from the sea.
The sea gives us food, fertilizer, minerals, water and other gifts. What do we give the sea? We pollute the ocean all the time. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}Throwing waste into the ocean is killing off sea life. Yet as the world population grows, we may need the sea and its gifts more than ever.
We are finally learning that if we destroy our sea, we might also destroy ourselves. Hopefully, it is not too late.
A. Other gifts, such as seaweed, can be also got from the sea. B. Huge as it is, the ocean can't hold all that we pour into it. C. Along with salt, other minerals are left after evaporation. D. We even use their bones (骨头) for fertilizer (肥料). E. Some of its contents (所含物) may cause illness. |
