In my mind, it is the most beautiful place.When I was 9 years old, my friend and I decided to make something to sell in order to make some pocket money. So we set up a stand near the road. Within just a few days, we knew that we should use the money to do something much more important－start saving the rainforest.Ever since we were little children, we have learned that the rainforest is the home of many kinds of animals. It is also the home of other living things, such as trees, plants and insects. The rainforest is a great place and we want to do anything and everything we can to save it. It is very important to save it, otherwise, the next generation(代) can’t see the rainforest. If it goes, then the planet will go, too.I believe that you can understand my meaning and you will support me. Join us and do your part in saving the rainforest, and the world!36．Why did Janine set up a stand at first?A. She wanted to get more pocket money.B. She wanted to save the planet.C.

Protect Trees and FlowersCDo you have a lucky number? What is it? Many people have aspecial number that they hope will bring them good luck.In Chinese culture, some numbers are believed to be lucky orunlucky based on the Chinese word that the number sounds similar to.For example, the word for the number 8 sounds similar to the wordfor “making a fortune”. So, people consider it a very lucky number.Some people will even spend a lot of money to have 8s in their phone numbers or vehicle license plate (车牌照) numbers. The opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics began at 8:08 p.m. on August 8, 2008.The number 9 is also a lucky number because of its connection to the emperors of China. There were nine dragons on emperors’ robes (龙袍) and Chinese myth(神话) said that the dragon has nine children. The number 9 also stands for “long lasting”. That’s why a man always proposes(求婚) to a woman with 99 or 999 roses.So what’s a “bad luck” number in China? It might be 4. Many Chinese people see 4 as a “bad luck” number because it sounds similar to the character for “death”.Because of this, many buildings skip the fourth floor, and simply call it the fifth floor. In Hong Kong, some buildings even skip all floors numbered with 4, such as, 4, 14, 24, 34 and all 40-49 floors. Some buildings also skip the 13th floor, as this is considered an unlucky number in many Christian(信基督教的) countries. As a result, a building whose highest floor is 50 may have only 35 physical floors.41．Many people have a special number that they hope will bring them _______.A ．good luckB ．good friendsC ．nothingD ．lots of money42．How do lucky or unlucky numbers come in Chinese culture?

They also ask the students to hand the phones in before exams.▲A new study shows that girl chimps(黑猩猩) are faster to use tools than boys! Experts found that girl chimps in East Africa use sticks to dig in the soil two years earlier than boys do. But they don’t know why. Girls watched their moms work, but the boys climbed trees. Yes, human girls always learn to write and draw first, but boys often run and play balls earlier than girls.▲In Germany, doctors have three ways to help kids who are addicted(上瘾的) to the Internet. First, learning art — Kids learn painting or singing; Second, doing sports — Kids do swimming or horse riding. The last one is to go into nature —Kids plant flowers and grow vegetables.
