On the afternoon of October 13th, 2011 in Foshan, a two-year-old baby girl was playing in the street while her parents were busy working at their shop.But unfortunately, a truck went by and knocked into this poor girl.What's worse, without stopping to help the girl, the truck went over her, making this poor girl badly hurt.In the next 7 minutes, another truck went over her, and 18 passers­by just walked past without taking notice of the poor baby.At last, this girl was saved by an old woman who collected waste in the streets, but unluckily the baby girl was so badly hurt that she died at last.
This event aroused harsh criticism (引起强烈批判) on the Internet.But why do people seem so kind­hearted only on the Internet, but actually in the daily life we can hardly see them help each other? Lots of people made comments online: If you save someone who's hurt, he may say it's you who hurt him.You may have trouble when you do a good deed, because the law doesn't protect you.
We really need to learn from other countries in such cases.For example, in Singapore, if someone does wrong to the one who helps him, he has to say sorry in public and pay 3 times the medical fee as punishment.

Which part of the world has the most nearsighted students? Just look around you–it’s East Asia. Nine in ten school leavers in major East Asian cities are nearsighted, according to the BBC. Experts say books and video games are not to blame. East Asian students, they say, aren’t getting enough sunlight.
People become nearsighted because their eyeballs grow out of shape and light entering their eyes cannot focus correctly. The body can produce a chemical called dopamine (多巴胺) to stop eyeballs from changing shape. And guess what scientists have just discovered? Sunlight can help our bodies produce more dopamine, reported AFP.
According to the study, primary school students in Singapore spend only 30 minutes outdoors every day; in Australia, by contrast, kids spend about three hours a day outside. As a result, fewer children in Australia are nearsighted–only 10 percent, compared with 90 percent in Singapore.
“Children in East Asia basically go to school... go home and stay inside. They study and they watch television,” Ian Morgan of the Australian National University told AFP.
But being a bookworm or a couch potato does not directly harm the eyes, added Morgan. “As long as they get outside, it doesn’t seem to matter how much study they do,” he explained. “There are some kids who study hard and get outside and play hard and they are generally fine. The ones who are at major risk are the ones who study hard and don’t get outside. As a result of massive (巨大的) educational pressures and the construction (构成) of a child’s day, the amount of time they spend outside in bright light is minimized.”
Experts suggest children should stay outside for two to three hours every day. This can include time spent in the playground and walking to and from school.
小题1:Which of the word has the similar meaning as the underlined phrase “nine in ten”?
A.manyB.fewC.someD.most
小题2:What is the main reason for the large number of nearsighted students in East Asia, according to scientists?
A.Too much reading or gaming.B.Lack(缺少)of sunlight.
C.Genetic reasons.D.Lack of exercise.
小题3:What can we conclude from Paragraph 2?
A.Dopamine is a chemical that causes eyeballs to grow out of shape.
B.Dopamine can stop light entering the eyes from focusing correctly.
C.Spending time in the sun can make the loss of dopamine in the body.
D.The more dopamine a person has in their body, the better eyesight he or she has.
小题4:According to Morgan, what kind of people are most likely to suffer from nearsightedness?
A.Those who like watching TV.
B.Those who take exercise regularly.
C.Those who study hard and play hard outdoors.
D.Those who stay indoors studying all day

Did you travel abroad during the National Day holiday? As it is becoming easier

to get visas(签证)to foreign countries, more and more Chinese people are traveling abroad during

the holidays. However, some countries are not so welcoming to Chinese tourists.

  A recent survey of 5,600 people from five countries showed that the Chinese people are the

second most unpopular tourists, just behind the US citizens. What’s wrong with us ?

  “The Chinese always like staying together and talking very loudly,” Dai Bin of the China

Tourism Academy told Chinese media .

abroad for many reasons .

  Some Chinese also litter everywhere and jump queues .Some like to write on famous buildings .In Hong Kong ,many local people complain that tourists from the Chinese mainland spit and smoke in non-smoking areas .None of these problems help the reputation of Chinese people traveling abroad .However, there are still plenty of thoughtful Chinese tourists ,who behave respectfully when visiting famous places ,taking a few photos before moving on to the next spot .

  Although we spend money to enjoy ourselves, it doesn’t mean we can do anything we want .All travelers should respect local customs and take care of the environment .

根据短文内容回答下列问题:

  I woke up as the plane started to land at Auckland airport.I had not slept for much of the night flight from Singapore because I was so excited.This was my first trip abroad without my parents.It was a school trip for Grade 6 students, all aged 11 years old.

  After the arrival, we got on a bus which took us to a place called Miranda, where we stayed the night.

  The next day we got up early, had breakfast, and took the bus to Thames.On the way we stopped at a gold mine(矿).I searched for pieces of gold but didn't find any.At Thames we visited a cave where we saw a huge spider eating a fly.That was interesting!

  The third day was very unforgettable.We went to a Maori village.Maoris are the original people who have lived in the New Zealand for thousands of years.I made friends with a Maori boy of my own age called Aaron.Aaron took me to his large house.He had many pets including a dog, a cat, a chicken and···an ostrich(鸵鸟)!The ostrich was much taller than me with a funny head and long legs.It was a little bit frightening!

  That night for dinner we had a barbecue and finally before going to bed we played a game of football.My team won 3 to 1.

  The next morning was our last day in New Zealand.We went back to Aaron's village where the Maori men lined up and performed a haka-this is a war dance.We then sang a song for them and then everyone became friends.It was a wonderful experience.

  After that we went to a place called Rototua where we saw boiling bud pools and geysers(间歇性喷泉).The geysers shot water into the air 10metres high! It was amazing!

  That night we took the bus back to the airport and said our goodbye to the beautiful country of New Zealand.I would love to come back to visit again some day.
