He writes a weekly magazine column called “Un-believable Inventions”. “One of my favourite inventions is the Butter Stick. It looks like a stick of glue, but its butter. You rub it on the bread instead of using a knife,” he says. “Another cool invention is Duster Slippers for pets. You put these special shoes on your dog or cat. As the animal runs around your house, it collects dust from the floor. Very useful!” A lot of these inventions come from Japanthe home of the crazy invention. Ivan says that the British also invent a lot of crazy things. “The other day I found an invention called a Cat Seat Saver,” he says. “The Cat Seat Saver looks exactly like a sleeping cat but it isnt real. You put it on your seat if you have to go to the restroom. No one will sit in your seat because they think theres a sleeping cat on it. Pretty cool!” However, does anyone buy these things? Yes. Lucy Wade from the shopping website says that their customers are young, professional people. “They buy these small things mostly for fun,” she says. “They are usually looking for a present for a friends birthday or a silly gift for a colleague.” If you have an idea for an amazing invention, send it to Lucy at .

When one of the stars needs to go to the bathroom, a seat-filler sits in the stars seat. (12) That way, the TV cameras wont show any empty seats. Kathy Miller talks about her night as a seat-filler. I was told to arrive at the theatre at noon, wearing my dress for the evening. There were about 200 of us seat-fillers, all very excited. We were told what we should and shouldnt do (for example, “Dont talk to the stars”), and then we waited until five oclock. Thats when the stars started arriving. Through the crowd, I saw Gwyneth Paltrow (beautiful in a blue gown), and Mel Gibson (Hes a lot shorter than he looks in his movies!). The show started at six oclock. We had to stand outside the doors. Then, when someone came out to go to the bathroom or have a cigarette, we were told to go and sit in his seat. The show was three hours long, and I only sat down five times. In the end, I was really tired. But I was happy because, during the evening, I sat behind Jim Carrey (Hes very tall!) and close to Denzel Washington, Nicole Kidman and Julia Roberts. It was an exciting night, but I think next year Ill watch the Oscars on TV at home like everyone else!11-12. Translate the underlined sentences into Chinese.13.

The top students are those who score more than 90% in a national test. It is good for both students and schools to score well on the test. Students who score well can get money for university. Schools that score well are more respected, so good teachers want to work there. Schools keep track of the number of top students each year. For example, below are the records for Spring Hill High School. It is not a very large school with fewer than two hundred students. Each year, there are fifty to sixty high school seniors who take the national test. Do you think Spring Hill is a respected school?Look at the graph.15.
