But make sure not to get lost or waste time going round in circles. Do the map reading if youre being driven somewhere. Itll be easier if you keep turning the map so it follows the direction youre traveling in. Keep looking ahead so that you can give the driver lots of warning before having to make a turn, or youll have to move to the back seat. Get a group of friends together and go exploring. Youll need a good map, a compass, a raincoat, a cell phone to call for help in case you get lost, and a bit of spare cash for emergencies. Tell someone where youre going before you set out and let them know what time you expect to be back. The test is in not getting lost, not in seeing how fast you can go, so always stick together, waiting for slower friends to catch up. See if your school or a club organizes orienteering activities, in which you need a map and a compass to find your way. This can be done as a sport, with teams trying to find the way from A to B (and B to C, etc.) in the fastest time, or simply as a spare-time activity. Either way, its not only good fun, but a great way to keep fit.45.

As they plant the vines, they add a package of water called DRiWATER. This method of planting grapevines along with the water supply saves time and work. It gives the plant enough water to keep growing. The workers can go on to other chores.DRiWATER is a package of jelled (凝结的) water. It melts slowly, watering the plant for two or three months. DRiWATER is a 100% natural, non-poisonous product used for the long-term watering of plants. It was invented by a well-known food chemist who recognized the potential of a filler product he was using to thicken peanut butter. He tested and applied his theory that water could be released over time as naturally occurring microbes (微生物) in the soil fed on the filler and released the water into the soil.The inventor, Harold Jensen, tried for a long time to get the right recipe. He and his family worked nights and weekends testing different formulas. Jensen finally found the right formula and patented it.What are the ingredients in DRiWATER? It is made up of 97.85% water, 2% vegetable gum, and 0.15% aluminum sulfate. When the DRiWATER is planted in the soil, the water is released as bacteria eat the jell.Buchanan Vineyard Services has bought ten thousand packages of DRiWATER. They will plant the jelled water with their new grapevines.What about countries like Egypt that have large deserts? Maybe DRiWATER will help grow trees in the desert. Two million trees have been planted near a town in the Sahara Desert. Two quarts were planted with each tree. The tree must live on the water for months until its roots touch ground water. Harold Jensen hopes to see forestsspring up in the deserts. This is the reason that he invented DRiWATER. Seedlings, DRiWATER, and desert may be the perfect fit.49. How did Harold Jensen invent DRiWATER?A. He got the right recipe from the growers. B. He succeeded by planting trees himself.C. He found the right recipe in a short time. D. He made it with the help of his family.50. According to the passage, DRiWATER _.A. consists mostly of water B. has the function of killing bacteriaC. may harm the growth of plants D. can help grapevines grow faster51. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Growers have to change the jelled water once a month. B. Growers in California have bought ten thousand packages of DRiWATER. C. Egyptians will benefit a lot from the new method. D. Buchanan Vineyard Services will grow trees in the desert52. What is the best title for the passage? A. How to plant grapevines well.B. A unique method to supply water to plants. C. Harold Jensen: a great inventor.D. DRiWATER and the Sahara Desert.DIn the six months that hed worked at his aunts shelter, Bryan had never grown close to a dog, but Patch was different. Aunt Kim had warned him, “Bryan, your mom says no dogs.” The fact that Patch was deaf did not help.“Its not your fault youre deaf, ”Bryan said, “Dont worry, because Ive got a plan!” Later, Bryan got ready to leave. Making sure no one was coming; he secretly put the dog into his bag, and waved his aunt goodbye.Two hours after arriving home with Patch, Bryan sat sadly in his room. He had told his mother he would take care of Patch, but Mom didnt agree.Bryan lay awake that night, Patch jumped onto his bed, and soon he fell asleep.Unbearable barks woke Bryan sometime later.

Bryan pushed Sarah to the window and shouted, “Jump with Patch!”Racing back into the smoky hallway, Bryan saw his mom. She seemed hardly able to catch her breath. Bryan tried to drag her to the hall window. But he failed.He looked up just in time to hear voices and feel strong arms pull them both to safety.A neighbor had heard Patchs barks and called 911. The firefighters thought a few candles had caused the fire.“I cant believe I forgot to blow out my candles,” Mom said.“Sorry about the house, Mom,”Bryan said quietly.To his surprise, Mom smiled.

He is always in a hurry and in the end loses both time and his good name. A lost thing may be found again, but lost time can never be regained. Time is more valuable than material things. In fact, time is life itself. The unpunctual man is forever wasting and mismanaging his most valuable asset (财产) as well as others. The unpunctual person is always complaining that he finds no time to answer letters, or return calls or keep appointments promptly. But the man who really has a great deal to do is very careful of his time and seldom complains of want of it. He knows that he can not get through his huge amount of work unless he faithfully keeps every piece of work when it has to be attended to.Failure to be punctual in keeping ones appointments is the sign of disrespect towards others. If a person is invited to dinner and arrives later than the appointed time, he keeps all the other guests waiting for him. Usually this will be regarded as a great disrespect to the host and all other guests present.Unpunctuality, moreover, is very harmful when it comes to do ones duty, whether public or private. Imagine how it would be if those who are put in charge of important tasks failed to be at their proper place at the appointed time. A man who is known to be habitually unpunctual is never trusted by his friends or fellow men.57. What does the author think is the main difference between a punctual person and an unpunctual person?A. A punctual person does everything ahead of time while an unpunctual person does everything behind schedule.B. A punctual person has a lot of appointments while an unpunctual person has few appointments.C. A punctual person does everything at the right time while an unpunctual person seldom does anything at the correct time.D. A punctual person has much time to do everything while an unpunctual person has little time
