[例2]

Welcome to Youth Radio,your radio. Here we’re proud to introduce three Amazing Kids.

Gina,who is thirteen years old,got first prize in the “Young Cook of the Year” competition and she wants to write a recipe book for kids. "I want it to be fun to read and easy enough for children to use,” she says. Gina learned by watching her father,who's also good at cooking,in the kitchen. She wants to encourage other children to cook,because "everyone needs to eat,so it's a skill that will always be useful!”

Seventeen-year-old Brian used to love running until he was hurt in a serious accident three years ago. He lost part of one leg and didn't even expect to walk again. Now he's an athlete who has recently taken part in a long race. “After my accident I wanted to give up ,” he says. “But now l,m happy to be alive and able to continue running."

Helen has always been good at science,but she thought it was too difficult to become an inventor. Then she heard about an accident that had happened when a car hit a train in her town. “That gave me an idea ,” says the clever sixteen-year-old. It took her over a year to invent a small special machine that tells car drivers when a train is coming. One company is already interested in selling it'so it may be in the shops soon!

Do you know a child like them? Please e-mail us at amaxingkids@ mail,com and tell us why he or she should be on our radio. Thank you.

The first part of a new science-fiction series (系列剧) was shown on NBC last night. Star Trek is about a spacecraft (宇宙飞船) which travels faster than the speed of light. The show is developed from three ideas about the 22nd century. First,well find other life forms with great tools which will make amazing things possible.

Let's think about these predictions. If we find life forms on other planets,will they be intelligent? I hope so. But we human beings might not be friendly—I don't think we’ll believe in the idea of peace one hundred years from now. But this is science fiction,so we can be optimistic!And Star Tre's idea of life in the future is " communicators ".And we will be able to have conversations with people who are on because youll have an electronic notebook. And if you get ill,the doctor won’t have to examine you,a machine will “read” your body. The strangest machine includes a “teleport” which will take people to a different place in a second!

The ideas are interesting,and in my opinion,there's only one problem with star trek: the acting.The TV company (公司) will have to get better actors. If they do that,the show might be a success. If the acting doesn’t improve,Star Trek won't last for more than one series.Of course,my prediction may be wrong. I can't see into the future!

() 1 . What is Star Trek?

   A. A TV play.

   B. A popular song.

   C. A spacecraft.

   D. An alien.

() 2. What does the underlined word " optimistic” mean?

   A. Lucky and happy.

   B. Hopeful and confident.

   C. Helpful and creative.

   D. Thankful and popular.

() 3. What's the writer's opinion about Star Trek?

   A. The life forms on other planets are stupid.

   B. Interesting ideas make a new series popular.

   C. The new series might not be suc-cessful without better actors.

() 4. Which would be the best title for the passage?

   A. Aliens on Other Planets.

   B. The Idea of Human Life.

   C. A Science Fiction.

   D. A New Series about Future.
