If you haven’t got a greenhouse,there is one safe and easy way to keep the plants well when you are away,and this is how you do it,Place six-inch-deep newspapers in the bottom of the bath.Yes, the bath! Turn the tap on and keep the water running until the papers are all wet.Now put the flower pots（花盆）to stand on the wet paper,go off holiday,and they should be alive and well when you return in two weeks’ time.

Some people say extreme（极限）sports are dangerous - and they're probably right - but hey, if you're not afraid of getting hurt, You might as well do it with style! It is reported that regular sports are not completely safer than extreme ones. Here is an introduction to three new extreme sports. ·Ostrich(鸵鸟)Racing South Africa and Jacksonville, Florida, USA are the two homes of ostrich racing. Why do some guys like to attend this extreme sport? The show is that sometimes four or even ten ostriches are marching forward and at a time, and this is seriously strange. For the supporters, there's a chance to ride an ostrich. Although if you don't want to be bitten or kicked, you can use carts（木车）like ostriches for racing instead. ·BASE Jumping BASE represents several words—Buildings, Spans，Earth Spans mean bridges and Earth means cliffs(悬崖), but then the beauty of BASE jumping is that it's just launching(发射)yourself from anywhere possible with a parachute(降落伞)ready to go. Although BASE jumping dates back to 1978, it has been popular quite a lot recently because there are pieces of videos on the Internet and every jump is a new possibility. ·Bird Man Suits The bird man suit has a few names—the flying squirrel suit, wing-suit and bat-suit, it's a specially designed suit that lets you glide(滑翔) through the air at controlled speeds—adding a little extra to your usual skydiving experience. This is probably the closest we are going to fly. If combining(结合)this with BASE jumping, you'll get some serious death-defying(挑战死亡的) excited feelings. 26. According to the passage, why is ostrich racing seriously strange? A. Because ostriches may bite and kick people.

B. Because supporters have chances to ride ostriches.

C. the Leaning Tower of Pisa D. the Tower Bridge 28. What is NOT the function of the bird man suit? A. It helps control flying speed. B. It helps squirrels and bats fly.

C. It helps people experience gliding through the air.

D. It can help people get serious death-defying excited feelings. 26. C 27. A28. B

Laughing, one woman said to the other, \

their desks, talking to each other in Korean.

The next day, the teacher divided the students into groups of four. The students in each group asked introductory(介绍的)questions of each other. A student in Tara's group asked her, \two women who had questioned Tara the day before were sitting only a few feet away. Both of them heard Tara's answer.

\they both exclaimed, \from Korea!\said yes. Then she apologized(道歉)to both of them for lying the day before. She told them that she had not wanted to get into a Korean conversation with them. It had been her experience that many ESL students continued to speak their mother language in ESL class, and Tara had not come to ESL class to practice her Korean. In her opinion， ESL students should try to speak English only. \

\to each other. Right，Rose?\，and then said something in Korean. All three women laughed.

Jack thought himself a basketball fan. He watched quite a lot of American NBA basketball games. Not only did he watch them, he spent much of his free time playing on the court too. Then came the final year of his middle school. All of his regular teammates stopped showing up on the court because they were simply too busy preparing for the high school entrance exam to play. He was, of course, under much stress himself, like everyone else. A good exam result meant a good high school; a mediocre(平庸的)score meant a mediocre school. Much was at stake. However, he loved basketball so much that he still found time to play, this time with a group of guys who were said to have skipped classes(逃课)before.
