【題目】

Many people love taking photographs. Some are good at taking pictures of people. Others focus more on sports or nature.

Mr. Luo, a retired railroad worker, took up photography at age 60. He joined a photography club and became an active member of it. He often went on bike rides and took pictures. This summer he did something unusual but amazing with his camera.

On that day, Mr. Luo got up at 5:00 am. He went to a pond in the countryside where there were always plenty of dragonflies. With great excitement, he set up his camera. First, he found a water bug in the muddy water. He waited until the bug climbed up a lily pad. There, it stopped to rest. Fifteen minutes later, the bug's body began to change. The skin split behind the head, and the adult dragonfly crawled out of its old skin. One hour later, the dragonfly started to separate its wings, which had been wet and folded at the beginning. Then, the dragonfly opened its wings for the first time. In another hour, the dragonfly moved with its wings and flew off for food.

He took a series of pictures of a dragonfly that was changing from a nymph to an adult. Using his camera, he recorded (記錄) the whole process, which took nearly five hours!

People are amazed at the series of pictures. Whenever people praise (夸贊) him for his work, Mr. Luo says, "Don't give the credit to me. Give it to nature. I just use my camera to record moment and show it to the world."

【題目】Some students will have no time to relax, while others have no plan for the coming February.

Denial, a high school student, who is going to take part in the college entrance examination, said he had to go to the capital city of Jiangsu Province every weekend.

He has found a new professor who can help him prepare for the exam. His family is not rich, but his parents offer him 800 yuan for each lesson and 200 yuan to

pay for the bus ticket. He said he would try his best to pass the exam next year. Therefore, he has to practice playing the piano 6 hours a day before every lesson.

He said he even thought sleeping was a waste of time. How hard-working he is!

However, not every student has a perfect plan like Denial. His younger sister doesn’t get up until noon. She said holiday was boring because she couldn’t play with

her classmates. That’s why she keeps sleeping for a long time to avoid being bored. What a special reason, isn’t it?

Do you like their holiday plans? If not, why not listen to Aunt Li for advice?

Dear students,

How can you have a wonderful holiday? Both relaxing and studying are very important for you. I suggest you make good use of your time every day and make a plan

before the holiday begins. Two hours’ study is not a long time, right? Don’t spend too much time playing computer games or watching TV. It’s bad for your eyes

and neck. If your parents are free at the weekend, going out for a picnic sounds great.

Have you made up your mind, students?

A. He goes to visit his granny.

B. He wants to learn from a professor.

【題目】It was Saturday again. Grace and Karen disliked Saturdays. That was another thing the twins had in common. They shared the same clothes and tied their hair in the same manner. In fact, it was hard for their classmates and teachers to tell them apart sometimes.

Unlike their classmates, they had to get up early at seven every Saturday to prepare for their lessons. Grace had to attend the art lesson and Karen had to attend her ballet lesson. “How I wish I could do something different today,” said the twins with one voice. All at once, an idea came to Grace and Karen at the same time. “How would you like to be me for a day?” they asked each other. It seemed like a wonderful plan to them. After giving each other a description of their own friends, Grace put on Karen’s ballet dress while Karen put Grace’s brushes and paints into her bag. Then they left for their classes.

When the art lesson started, Karen was lost. Unlike Grace, Karen was poor at drawing. When the art lesson finally ended, Karen didn’t dare to hand in her work.

Meanwhile, Grace was struggling in the ballet class as well. As she had no idea about the dance steps, she had to follow her classmates blindly. As a result, she kept knocking into them. Their ballet teacher became impatient with her, “Karen, you should remember the basic steps. You can’t rely on copying what others are doing.”

When Karen and Grace got home, they were tired out. They decided that they would never try to be someone else they were not. It seemed that the grass was not always greener on the other side.

【1】Did Grace and Karen like Saturdays?

【2】When did the twins get up on Saturdays?

【3】What was the twins’ plan when they decided to do something different?

【4】How did Karen feel at the beginning of the art lesson?

【5】Why did the ballet teacher become impatient?

【6】What does the underlined part the grass was not always greener on the other side at the end of the story try to tell us?
