As he was working, a couple of boys stopped by to watch. "What are you doing" asked one of the visitors. "I want to dig a deep hole all the way through the earth!" the boy answered excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling him that it was impossible to do it. Then they left.The little boy kept on digging and digging. Suddenly, a few small colorful stones caught his eyes. He collected them and put them into a glass jar patiently. Humming a song, he went on digging. The jar was full soon. Then he talked to himself calmly and proudly, "Maybe I can't finish digging all the way through the earth, but look at what I have found in the process of digging !"The boy's goal was too difficult, but it did cause him to go on, in other words, to cause us to keep working!Not every goal will be achieved. Not every job will end up with a success. Not every dream will come true. But when you can't achieve your goal, maybe you can say, "Yes, but look what I've found along the way! There are so many wonderful things that have come into my life because I tried to do something!" It is in the digging that life is lived. is the unexpected joy on the journey that really has a meaning.1.What caused Jack to dig a hole?A.A TV program about scienceB. A lecture about scienceC.

We send in rescue（救援）dogs. Why? Because they can smell people．Dogs save lives．They help rescuers to find living people．But dogs are big and they can't get into small spaces．So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives：the rat．How does it work? First，the rat is trained to smell people．When this happens，the rat's brain gives a signal．This is sent to a small radio on its back，and then the rescuers follow the radio signals．When the rat's brain activity jumps，the rescuers know that someone is alive．Therat has smelled that person．Although there are already robots which can do this job，rats are better．Christian Linster at Cornell University—New York says，“Robots' noses don't work well when there are other smells around．Rats are good at that.” Rats can also see in the dark．They are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs，and unlike robots，they don't need electricity!The “rat project” is not finished，but Julie Ryan of International Rescue Corps in Scotland says，“It would be fantastic．A rat could get into spaces we couldn't get to and a rat would get out if it wasn't safe.” Perhaps for the first time in history，people will be happy to see a rat in a building, but only after an earthquake，of course.5.After an earthquake, rats can rescue people by_____.A.WatchingB.

When they are, they are shot on location, which means that real streets, trees and buildings are used. However, this can be difficult and expensive, so many films are made in buildings called sound stages. If this is the case, a backdrop(背景) may be carefully painted and hung behind the actors. Backdrops are so good that you often think you are looking at a real place.There are so many important words that refer to the camera. When the entire screen is full with one image, like someone’s face, this is called a close-up shot(特写镜头). When the camera moves back and the screen shows a picture from far away, this is called a wide-angle shot(广角镜头). Wide-angle shots are used to show things such as mountains and a river or a city with many streets and buildings.At the end of a film, the credits(演职人员) appear.
