My mother washed aluminum foil（鋁箔紙）after she cooked in it, and then she reused it. She was the earliest recycle（回收）queen before people had a name for it My father was no different. He preferred getting old shoes fixed to -buying new ones. Their marriage was good and their dreams were focused（集中）Their best friends lived just a wave away. Though my parents have passed away, I can see them now - Dad in trousers, a T-shirt and a hat and Mom in a house dress, lawnmower（割草機(jī)）in one hand and dishtowel in the other. It was the time to fix things -a curtain rod(掛簾桿),the kitchen radio, the screen door, the oven door, and so on. They fixed all things we had. It was a way of life, and sometimes it made me crazy. All that re-fixing and renewing made me want to scream.1 wanted just once to be wasteful. Waste meant being rich. Throwing things away meant you knew thered always be more. I often thought like that. But then my mother died, and on that clear summer night, in the warmth of the hospital room, I learned that sometimes there isnt any more. Sometimes, what we care about most gets all used up and goes away and it will never return. So, while we have it, it is the best that we love it, care for it, fix it when its broken and cure it when its sick.This is true for marriage, old cars, children with bad report cards, dogs with bad hips and aging parents and grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it and because we are worth it.26. We can learn that when the writer was young, she_.

Remember, you are sending your kid to a summer camp not just to let him enjoy himself but also to help him become confident. So you should try to select a summer camp for your kid so that after he returns from the camp, the first thing that he asks you is when you will send him again for camping. Let us see how you can pick the best summer camp for your child. Search the InternetIf you browse（瀏覽） the Internet, you will find a number of websites of summer camps where you can find all the detailed information about the camps.

Dont forget to read the comments（評(píng)論） of parents who have sent their children to those camps and pay attention to how they find those camps._X |k | B| 1 . c|O |m Some camp organizers prefer advertisements in newspapers.

Ask for advice from your childs school teachers Go to your kids school and ask his teachers whether they can give you names of some of the summer camps they consider to be the best. Know the interest of your child While searching, you will come across different types of camps.

Mother needs your help in the kitchen. Her father called out to her. Tammy was in her room, getting ready to do her homework. Yes, Daddy! she replied. Ill be right there. She hurried out of her bedroom and down the hallway. She was only nine years old. Her elder sister, Ella, had just moved away to go to a performing arts high school in another city. Her brother, Harry, was in middle school and always got home late. With Ella leaving home, Tammy was expected to do a lot more than she had ever done before, especially now, because her mother was ill. Her father was in the kitchen. Tammy, I know you usually do your homework right now, but with things being different, we all have to change a little bit. Ill help you and Harry with your homework later on, OK? Her father had an apron（圍裙） on over his clothes, and he looked kind of funny. He was doing the dishes and he always splashed（濺出） water all over when he did that. After helping her father with the dishes, Tammy helped set the table. After supper, her father helped her and Harry with their homework, and then they played a board game so that their mother could lie down for a while. The next morning, Tammy got up early on her own because she wanted to help her mother with breakfast. She made orange juice and even put bread in the toaster and got out the butter so that her mother could sleep for a few more minutes. When her mother got up half an hour later, she was very surprised and moved to see the breakfast on the dining table. She gave Tammy a big hug. Thank you, Tammy. You really are mothers little helper now, arent you?32. Why did Tammys sister move out of their home? A. Because she hated doing housework B. Because she was busy with her work. C.

Which is the best title for this passage? A. Mothers Little Helper B. The Life of Tammys Family C. A Happy Family D. Tammys School LifeD America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while - then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending（延伸）sometimes deeply into both families. Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality（好客） easily. Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they dont show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly cannot manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine（事務(wù)）. They will be likely to expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably. For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!37. The writer of this passage must be_. A. an American B. a Chinese C. a visitor D. a student38. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break. B. Americans are usually more friendly than Chinese. C. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy. D. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.39. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American fri
