The following rales will be used for the Reading Club:

　　1.All books must be read from page one to the last page.

　　2.The parent or the teacher will initial (write the first letter of one's name) the booklist after a student has finished reading a book. Teachers will initial the booklist only for the books read at school, and books read outside school must be initialed by the parent. And it is the duty of the parent to write the number of pages of each of the books that have been read by the child on the booklist.

　　3.All books read must be of the student's reading level or above. For example, a third grade student should not read first grade books if he or she is able to read at a third grade or higher reading level.

　　4. All the books the student finishes during the school year (including the textbooks read at school) will be counted towards the 100 books. Comic books and the like will not be counted. Books of good quality(质量）read from the school library, public library, classroom, home, etc. will be counted—including story books.

　　5.When a student has finished a club booklist—one sheet(一份）of 25 books or 1,500 pages，he or she should bring the sheet to the office. The child will get a small reward(奖励） and may get another piece of booklist to go on reading. It takes four booklist sheets for 100 books or for 1,500 pages to reach 6,000 pages. Either way — You are a winner!

We drink tea every day. But more than three hundred years ago most of the people in Europe (欧洲) did not know anything about tea. Some people heard about it, but very few of them know what to do with it.

One day he came home and brought some tea as a present for his mother. She told her friends about the present and asked them to a “tea party”. When her friends came to the “tea party”, the old woman offered (给) them brown tea-leaves (茶叶). The old woman’s friends began to eat them. Of course, nobody liked the tea-leaves.

　　At that time the sailor came in. He looked at the table and said, “Mother, what have you done with the tea?”

　　“I boiled (煮) it，as you said.”

　　“And what did you do with the water?”
