One day, a farmer was walking along a road with his son. The father said, “Look!There is a horseshoe.

There the father sold the horseshoe and with the few pennies he bought some cherries (樱桃).
The father and the son continued their way. The sun was well up in the sky, and there wasn’t house or even a tree where they could have a rest. Thomas felt too thirsty to walk on. At this time, his father dropped a cherry on the ground and Thomas picked it up quickly and ate it.

And so they went on. The old father dropped cherries and the son picked them up. When Thomas had eaten up all the cherries, his father said to him, “My dear son, if you had bent down early to pick up that horseshoe it would not have been necessary for you to bend so many times for cherries.

Passage Two
Ants are busy insects. They live and work together in groups called colonies. Millions of ants can live in one colony! Each colony has at least one queen. The queen lays eggs. The other ants have work to do. Here are just a few of their jobs.
Worker Ants
Most ants live in underground nests. Worker ants dig the nests. They take the extra dirt outside. That dirt forms an anthill above the nest.
Each nest has many rooms. They are connected by tunnels （地道）. Some rooms are places to rest. Other rooms are used to take care of the young ants. Food is stored in some rooms.
Scout (侦查) Ants
Some ants are scout ants. They hunt for food. When a scout ant finds food, it goes back to the nest. The ant leaves a trail along the way. Other ants follow the trial to find the food. They carry the food back to the nest and share it with the colony.
Soldier Ants
Some ants are soldiers. Their job is to protect the nest. They stand near the nest’s entrance and guard it. They fight off enemy insects that try to enter the nest. Some soldier ants have large heads. They use their heads to block the entrance to the nest.
Plant Ants
Some ants live in special plants known as ant plants. Those plants have hollow parts where the ants can live. Something that is hollow has empty space inside. The ants help the plants by killing insects that eat the plants.

Passage Three
My name is Igor, and today- April 10- is my name day. It is also my cousin’s name day because his name is Igor, too. We live in Slovakia (斯洛伐克) in Europe. In our country, each day of the year has a name, and a person’s name day is that date on the calendar that has their name. My cousin and I share our name day with all the other Igors in Slovakia.
A name day is like a second birthday but not as important. In one way, my name day is better than my birthday. Sometimes my friends forget my birthday, but they never forget my name day because it is right there on the calendar. This morning, my mother gave me a new book. My sister, Laura, gave me five flowers because an even number of flowers is considered unlucky.
At school, my cousin Igor gave me a card he had made himself. I gave him a box of his favorite chocolates. After school, my father took us both to the zoo. My sister had to stay at home and do her homework. When she plained to our father, he told her that on June 5 she could go someplace that is fun, because that day is the name day of Laura.

Passage Four
Did you see snow in your hometown last winter? Did you feel it was warmer than before? “There have been 21 warm winters in China since 1986,” said scientists. They also said that in the past 100 years, as the global temperatures went up by 0.74℃, the temperature in North China has climbed 1.4℃ in only 50 years.
China needs to take quick action to cut carbon dioxide emission(排放), because it’s the main reason for global warming. The good news is that China has seen the importance of going green. China set the goal of cutting energy use by 20% and pollution emission by 10% in the 12th Five-Year plan.
Can you slow global warming? Sure! You and your family can take steps to cut the amount of carbon dioxide that is sent out into the air.
Here are some pieces of advice to help you save the earth.
Wear used clothes. Wearing your brother’s, or sister’s or dad’s old T-shirt means you save the energy.
Change your light bulbs(灯泡). Use energy-saving light bulbs.
Don’t forget to turn off the lights when you leave a room and turn off your television and puter when they are not in use!
Ride the bus. Taking a bus saves a lot of oil every year. Say no to plastic bags. The next time your parents go to the market, ask them to use baskets.
Open a window. Don’t use the air conditioner, and let some fresh air in. When you have to use the conditioner, set the temperature higher in the summer and lower in the winter to save energy.
Make small changes in your daily life. Don’t use paper cups, bags and boxes.
It’s time for all of us to do something to save the earth.
