Ask Angela

Many newspapers have an advice page. So does the school newspaper of Xinhan Middle School. Angela Wang is the editor responsible for the page. Students like to write to her for advice.

Dear Angela,

I’m 16 and I want to leave school this year. My parents say it is too early and that I should be trying to get into high school. I want to work at McDonald’s. Then I can start earning money to buy things.

Jane

Dear Jane,

Your parents are right. It would be better if you can complete as much of your education as possible. Real independence won’t come from earning 150 yuan a week. It will come from the qualifications（资历、学历）and experience that you would gain by staying at school for a couple more years.

  Angela

Dear Angela,

My parents and I have been fighting a lot recently. I’m 16, but they still treat me like a kid. My mom calls me 20 times if I don’t get home before 7 p.m. I tried talking to them about this, but they never change. What can I do?

Jim

Dear Jim,

Being angry and standing against your parents will not solve the problem. Try communicating with them from their point of view. Make a list of things you wish to do and another list of your parents’ possible concerns about them. Let your parents know you have learned to be responsible for yourself.

  Angela

Dear Angela,

I am having an issue with my Chemistry teacher. She is super nice to my classmates but behaves completely differently towards me. She blames me for things I didn’t do. What should I do?

　　   Mike

Dear Mike,

In a situation like this, you’d better speak to the teacher directly. This way, you can understand why she has a different attitude towards you. Our personal bias（偏见）might influence our thoughts about other people. Make sure the way you feel the teacher treats you isn’t influenced by any bias.

  Angela

【1】Mike doesn’t get along well with his ________.

A.parents B.classmates C.chemistry teacher D.friends

B.helping parents with the housework

C.communicating with parents from their point of view

【6】In Angela’s opinion, real independence comes from ________.

26、

What will the house of the future look like? Could it have gardens on its walls, or a pool with fish for dinner? Architects believe that they are all possibilities. The only thing for sure is that the houses will be as green as possible.

The tree house

Many architects in the world would like to build a “tree house.” Like a leaf, the surface of the house collects sunlight during the day. The energy can be used to heat water, produce electricity, and even create fresh air for the home. The “root” (根) of the house is deep under the ground. It uses the soil (土壤) to the home’s temperature.

The Lizard house

Like a lizard (蜥蜴), changing color with the weather is the most important design of a lizard house. When it’s in the bright sun, the cover of the house will turn dark to protect it from strong heat. During dark days, it turns white and takes in as much light and heat as possible to produce energy.

Meals at home

This design is perhaps as much about the future of food production as architecture (建筑风格). It has gardens on the outside wall of the house. People can plant tomatoes, carrots and green tea on them. So every day in the morning, you just need to walk outside and collect your meals.

Learning from the past

Looking to the future isn’t the only way to be green. Sometimes, ancient techniques (古老的技术) can also help cut down energy use. For example, a chimney (烟囱) can be a useful air conditioner because it is easier of hot air to flow out at the chimney.

根据短文内容，选择正确答案。

【1】What is the best title (标题) of the passage?

A.Green house of the future. B.The greener, the better.

C.How to build green houses. D.Changes of the houses.

【2】We can heat water, produce electricity or create fresh air for the home________.

A.with the root of a leaf B.with the energy from sunlight

【3】What will happen to the cover of the lizard house when it’s in the bright sun?

A.It will take in light. B.It will produce energy.

C.It will turn dark. D.It will turn white.

【4】The passage seems to tell us that meals at home in the future ________.

A.will be more delicious B.need more cooks

C.cost as much as possible D.will be greener

28、阅读短文，在其后空白处写出各单词的正确形式，单词的第一个字母已给出。

Devon Gallagher, a college graduate from Philadelphia, wants the world to know where she’s been during her great worldwide vacation in a special way.

The traveler, who was born with a bone disease, had her right leg c【1】at the age of four. Although the amputation（截肢）once caused much trouble for her, the 22-year-old girl now just c【2】it as an inspiration for making the best of her life.

To spread that m【3】, Devon shares photos of her travels through the Internet. But instead of simply u【4】a geotag（地理标签）,she draws her location across her artificial leg before taking a picture.

“I get a new leg every two years. One day, I had a sudden 【5】my new leg could be used as a blackboard.”Devon said, “My family weren’t p【6】with the idea, but my friends thought it was great and told me to go for it.”

Now she’s been taking pictures across Europe. “People often s【7】while I’m writing on my leg.”said Devon, “But once I share the photos, I receive o【8】praise and support.”

“My leg hasn’t p【9】me from doing anything I’ve wanted.”she said, “Now, I’ve been able to keep up with my peers（同龄人）and lead a pretty great life.”
