One of my fathers friends, Bernie, was a rich businessman, who owned a large store in St. Paul.Every summer, when the first watermelons arrived, Bernie would call. Dad and I would go to Bernies place. Wed sit on the edge of the dock（码头）, feet dangling（摇晃）, and got ready for a big meal. Bernie would take his knife, cut our first watermelon, hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us. Then wed bury our faces in watermelon, eating only the heartthe reddest, juiciest, firmest, sweetest, most seed-free partand throw away the rest. Bernie was my fathers idea of a rich man. I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman. Years later, I realized that it was not Bernies wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked. Bernie knew how to stop working, get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon.What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind. Some of us, no matter how much money we have, will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon. If you dont take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy lifes small pleasure, your work is probably hurting your life. For many years, I forgot that lesson Id learned as a kid on the loading dock. I was too busy making all the money I could. Well, Ive relearned it. I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day. Thats the heart of the watermelon. I have learned again to throw the rest away. 36.

The underlined part “the heart of the watermelon” in the last paragraph refers to _. A. the best part of the watermelonB. the writers busy life C. the writers decision of making moneyD. the writers hope of enjoying life40. It can be learned from the passage that _. A. one has to work hard to reach his goalB. a friend in need is a friend in deed C. watermelon is the healthiest fruitD. one should keep work-life balanceBWhen the Audet family turns on the lights at Blue Farm, they are using electricity that comes from cowscow manure (粪肥), to be specific.Cows produce a lot of wastes. One cow can create 30 gallons of wastes each day. Now imagine the output of over 1,000 cows at Blue Farm. Thats really a big amount.When farmers clean their barns, they put the wastes in a big heap, and spread some of them on their fields for fertilizer(肥料). But now places like Blue Spruce Farm have a new way of using cow wastes. They use them to produce electricity.Heres how it works: A big machine moves back and forth cleaning the barn floor. “The cows arent bothered,” says Marie Audet. “They are animals of habit; they get used to it, and just lift one foot and then another to let it go by.” The machine pushes the manure into a big 600-gallon tank like a small swimming pool. The tank is called a digester (化粪池) because what happens there is just like what happens inside a cow: Bacteria(细菌) get to work and continue to digest the manure.Methane gas (甲烷、沼气)in the atmosphere is known as a “greenhouse” gas because it keeps heat just like a greenhouse does, causing our planet to warm up. Thats an environmental concern. But the digester has a good result. Its gas is kept and used to power electric generators (发电机).At Blue Farm, the generators make enough electricity to power 400 homes. The Audet family sells the extra electricity they cant use themselves.41. We learn from the text that the Audet family is using cow wastes to _. A. make electricity B. produce fertilizerC. build their farmD. feed the cows42. How are the cow wastes collected into the digester at Blue Farm? A. Marie Audet does the workB.

To show a new rebuilding plan for a big farmD. To explain the reasons for green house effectCHeres an interview to a pilot about his life. (R=Reporter; P= Pilot)R: How much time do pilots actually spend flying a plane?P: It varies (WESJ) from about 20 minutes on some domestic (区别) flights to as much as 18 hours on international flights. It all depends on if the flight is a short- or long-haul flight. R: Do pilots take breaks during flights or do they fly the whole time?P: Yes, we take breaks during long-haul flights. Airlines assign (指派) three or four pilots to long flights. We take turns flying the plane.R: If pilots are traveling all the time, how do they deal with jet lag (时差)?P: Jet lag is annoying for almost all pilots. I try to go to sleep as I would at home.R: How important is it to know the weight and size of the plane you are flying?P: It is very important. We weigh almost everything put into the airplane and make estimates (估计) according to the number of people on each flight.R: Do pilots eat the airplane food?P: Yes, we eat business class food! Airplane food changes every season and is very delicious if you dont hate eating lobster (龙虾) every day! The pilots on the same plane are supposed to make different meal choices so that if one of the dishes causes food poisoning, only one of them will be sick.

By sitting on exercise balls instead of chairs, teachers find students posture (姿势) and attention improve.Dottie Pownall, a fifth-grade teacher in West Virginia, USA, has been using balls as chairs since December 2008. The students love them, she says. Pownall took a survey of her students. She found that 80% of the students thought sitting on the balls helped them pay more attention to what they were learning.The teacher, Pisa Witt, felt so strongly about the use of balls as chairs, she started Witt Fitt. This company encourages the use of the balls. And the company educates not only teachers but also students on how to use them. Our products are used in 24 states, three provinces in Canada, Puerto Rico (波多黎各) and Japan, says Witt. Research shows that sitting on the balls makes them sit up straighter. You can slouch (低头垂肩地坐) on a ball, says Witt, but it feels awful. Because the students are moving, their blood (血液) increases. That carries more oxygen (氧气 to the brain (大脑), so the kids have more energy and can focus longer.Furthermore, theyre fun. says Pownali.51. What will happen if a student sits on a chair all day in school? The student will _.A. pay more attention to his lessons B. be funC. like to move around D. sit up straighter52.

Both A and C are correct answers.55. Which is better for kids to study in class, sitting on a chair or sitting on a ball? A. Sitting on a chair. B. Sitting on a ball.C. They are the same. D.
