閱讀短文,根據(jù)其內(nèi)容簡要回答問題。

  In the countries all over the world, people are leaving the countryside in large numbers to find jobs in the cities.They leave because the countryside is much poorer than the city, and often there isn't much work there.Services such as hospitals and transport(交通)are usually much better in cities than they are in the country.They hope that their lives will improve when they move

to the city.

  But in the big cities of Europe and America——London, Pairs, New York, people are moving out of the city.These are usually families who have some money, and want to live a quieter life.They are tired of the noise and the dirt(灰塵)of the city, tired of the crowded streets, crowded trains and buses.They don't want to sit in traffic any more.They want a house with a garden, and clean air that isn't polluted.

  So they move out.Some don't go very far, just a little way out of the city, to the towns near the cities, other people move to the real countryside with sheep and cows and green fields! There, they start new lives and try to make new friends.

  Not all those who move from the city to the countryside are happy.After two or three years, many people who have done this feel that it was a big mistake.They don't make so much money and there isn't much to do.Country people are very different and aren't always very friendly.

  As a result, quite a lot of people who have moved to the countryside move back to the city.“It's wonderful to see crowds in the streets and cinema lights,”they say,“I'm so glad I'm back in the city!”

1.Is there often much work to do in the countryside?

_________________________________________

2.What kind of families are moving out of the city?

_________________________________________

3.What are they tired of about the city?(答兩點即可)

  Anne Holland’s speech

  Dear Students

  I’m very happy to be your guest speaker today.It is a great pleasure to visit your school and to meet all of you.

  I would like to tell you about myself.I have been a news reporter for the past fifteen years.I chose this job so I could travel the world, but the job has taught me many unforgettable lessons.The work is sometimes difficult.I have seen famines(饑荒), wars, earthquakes(地震), poverty and death.But I have also seen courage, hope and happiness.

  In India, I visited a city where there were many homeless children.Some were as

  young as four years old.They lived by begging(乞討)or stealing.But then a wonderful lady called Rosa opened a home for them.Within one year, she was looking after two hundred children.She clothed them, fed them and taught them.She gave them hope.

  Another time, I was in Turkey after a terrible earthquake.In one place, I found an old lady whose house was in ruins(成為廢墟).Her son was missing and rescue workers said there was no chance that he was still alive.But the old lady did not give up hope.For four days, she moved heavy stones one at a time by herself.She did not stop until she found her son.He was alive.

  Here in China, I met a young boy with a serious medical condition.He had undergone twenty operations and spent nearly his whole life in hospital.I thought he would be sad, but when I met him, his smile was so warm and welcoming.

  In life, we need role models that we can admire(崇拜)and learn from.When my life is difficult, I try to remember the courage and goodness of these three people.

1.How long has Anne Holland been a news reporter?

2.What did Rosa do for the children?

3.Was the old lady’s son saved?

4.In which country did Anne Holland give this speech?

5.What lesson do you think Anne Holland learnt from these three people?

  Are the lives of city kids the same as those in villages? In lots of ways, they are very different.But what are the differences?

  Hu Peng and his four friends decided to find them out.Earlier this month, they went to live for a week at Huagui Village near Xishui.They went door to door there and asked kids there lots of questions.They wanted to learn more about village kids' everyday lives, so they asked questions like these:Do your parents teach you how to do housework? How much money do you usually spend on dinner? What would you do if a thief comes into your houses? They also asked 150 city kids the same question.

  On April 12, the team gave a report to their class.They told about lots of differences between children's lives in cities and those in villages.The biggest difference is independence.Hu's team say that more than 60 percent of city kids can't do much housework, but more than 80 percent of village kids can care for themselves.

  City kids told Hu they cared about school a lot, and they had no time to wash clothes or make their beds.Village kids said they helped their parents with a lot:they cook, clean houses and feed farm animals, Hu's team also saw that village kids had less pocket money.Many never use computers.They play in rivers or on mountains.Some don't really like to make new friends.

  Hu's team said their trip gave them more self-confidence(自信心)because they were doing something by them-selves.But it also worried them a bit because they saw they still had a lot to learn.“When we grow up, our parents can't take care of us,” Hu said.“We have to learn to take care of ourselves.”

How to drink tea

  All around the world, people drink tea.But tea does not mean the same thing to everyone.

  In China, for example, tea is always served(招待)when people get together.The Chinese drink it at any time of day at homes or in teahouse.They prefer their tea plain, with nothing else in it.

  Tea is also important in Japan.The Japanese have a special(特別的)way of serving tea called a tea ceremony(儀式).It is very old and full of meaning.Everything must be done in a special way in the ceremony.There is even a special room for it in Japanese homes.

  Another tea-drinking country is England.In England, the late afternoon is ‘‘tea time”.Almost everyone has a cup of tea then.The English usually make tea in tea-port and drink it with cream and sugar.They also eat cakes, cookies and little sandwiches at teatime.

  Different people have different ways of drinking tea.
