A group of kids at McIntyre Elementary School, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, have created a special bench to make sure their fellow classmates aren’t left out on the playground. Called the “Buddy Bench”, students can use the seat as a safe and supportive place to let others know they’d like to be included in playtime, but may be too shy to ask.

The concept of the Buddy Bench is simple: Students who want to partake in playground games and activities, but may feel hesitant, can take a seat, which signifies(表明) to other children on the playground that they may need something extra to encourage them to participate.

The idea for the bench came about last year, when Farrell, school counselor at McIntyre Elementary, was conducting a leadership group to help students overcome shyness and gain confidence. Four fourth-grade students came up with the idea for the Buddy Bench in this workshop, and worked with Farrell to draft a letter to present to the Parent Teacher Staff Organization to make the bench a reality. The PTSO approved the students’ proposal, and installed(安裝) a bright metal bench with a cheerful sign that reads “Buddy Bench” on the school’s playground.

Since it was installed on Nov. 16, the bench has been effective. The simple concept has resonated with(引起共鳴) the students, and already has created a better environment within the school community.

“Each day, I go to see the buddy bench working,” Farrell said. “The lessons they are learning now will benefit them their entire lives. It is simply a beautiful example of kids wanting to be kind and continue to be kind every day.”

1.Who is Buddy Bench created for?

A. Students who love games and activities.

B. Students who want and continue to be kind.

C. Students who are left out on the playground.

D. Students who are in Farrell’s leadership group.

2.What does the underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refer to?

A. The PTSO.B. Buddy Bench users.

C. The workshop members.D. Farrell and teachers.

3.Which of the following statements can show “the bench has been effective”?

A. The workshop kids have set a good example.

B. More and more creative ideas have come up.

C. The PTSO has decided to provide more buddy benches.

D. Some shy students have found friends on the playground.

I’d like to share with you my progresses on study in these three years. To be honest, I was not so good at my study when I came to high school, often feel tired out and at loss. Sometimes, I am even on the point of giving up. Therefore, my change happened when my teachers and my classmates as well as came to encourage me one day in Senior Two. It was their encouragement and my own thinking that resulted in my mchievements in study final.

Still not a top student although I am now, I have found myself filled with greatly confidence to face any difficulty and challenge. There is no doubt that I am bound to fight with my dream to the end in the coming months！

Camels are large animals living in dry areas. There are two species of camels; the Arabian camel with a single hump(駝背) from the dry desert areas of West Asia, and the Bactrian camel with two humps from Central and East Asia. Camels are over 7 feet tall and weigh over 1,600 pounds. They will live up to 40 to 50 years. Most camels are domesticated(馴化) and fed by people. Camels are plant-eaters．

Camels are very strong animals with wide, padded feet. They have thick leathery pads on their knees and chest. Camels have nostrils(鼻孔) that can open and close, protecting them from the desert environment. Bushy eyebrows and two rows of long eyelashes protect their eyes from sand. Their mouth is extremely tough, allowing camels to eat thorny(帶刺的) desert plants. Their widened feet help them move without sinking into the sand. Their thick coats reflect sunlight, and also protect them from the intense heat from desert sand. Their long legs help by keeping them further from the hot ground.

Camels can go without food and water for 3 to 4 days. They do not store water in their humps as is commonly believed．The humps are actually a container of fat. Camels are incredibly well-adapted to their environment. When conditions heat up, camels can increase their own body temperature, which prevents sweating and therefore water loss. They may not sweat at all during the day.

Camels are sometimes called “ships of the desert” because people ride them around the hot, dry deserts of the world. However, the number of camels is becoming smaller for various reasons.

1.According to the passage, camels usually live in ________.

A. Asia B. Africa

C. America D. Australia

2.Paragraph 2 is mainly about ________.

A. camels are useful animals

B. camels are clever animals

C. camels’ body structure and function

D. camels’ characteristics and habits

3.The reason why camels lose little water in deserts is that they ________.

A. get water from green foods

B. can adjust their temperature

C. store enough water in the humps

D. can manage without water

4.What will the author probably talk about following the last paragraph?

A. Ways to protect camels.

B. Habitats of camels.

C. Reasons for raising camels.

D. Functions of camels.
