Lets take a look at the five top inventions.Movable Type（活字印刷）: By using Movable Type, books could be printed cheaply and easily. Bi Sheng invented Movable Type in China in the 11th century.Telephone: The inventor Alexander Graham Bell made the first telephone call in 1876. “Mr. Watson, come here. I want you.” he said to his assistant over the phone line. And with those famous words, the world was about to get much smaller. Airplane: The Wright brothers made the first powered flight in 1903. Air travel has made the faraway places suddenly become a lot closer.Satellites（卫星）: The Soviet Union sent up the worlds first satellite in 1957. This began the Space Age. Satellites have helped scientists study the earth. Much of our knowledge of the world has come from the information recorded by satellites.Internet: When the Internet was created in 1969, only a few people knew about it. But more than 650 million people in the world use it now. The Internet has made information about anything easy to get.Title 1. _The top inventions Movable TypeTelephone Airplane SatellitesInternet 2. China /The Soviet Union The U. S.

Do you send text messages to your friends and family?Text messaging or “texting”, is becoming very popular. But, scientists have discovered that texting can give us problems with our hands. Be careful! Too much texting can cause swelling（肿胀）in our thumbs（拇指）. Our thumbs were not made for pushing small buttons（按钮）, over and over. Scientists call his problem RSI（重复性紧张劳损）. We spoke to a doctor called Harriet Wilson, who treats many sick people with RSI. She says we need to see how much time we are spending in typing text messages. If we are spending more than 10-15 minutes at once, we could have problems in the future.As mobile phones develop, they are getting smaller with buttons closer together. Texting with a smaller phone is worse than using a larger phone with bigger buttons. Using a computer keyboard and playing video games can cause the same problem. So more and more people could find themselves with RSI. Among them, most are university students and teenagers, as they do not know the risks of spending so much time using computers, video games and mobile phones. If we dont do something about this, too many young people could grow up in terrible pain.1. What is becoming very popular now?2. Does the word “once” mean “one time” in the second passage?3. What kind of people are easier to have the problem of RSI?4. What can also cause RSI except texting?5. Which is easier to cause the problem of RSI, using smaller mobile phones or larger ones? （四）Most people can think of a sport they would love to see in Olympics. But they often dont realize how hard it is to add a sport to the Olympics. A sport needs to be well-organized and popular before the International Olympic Committee(IOC) will consider it. An international federation must govern（控制）the sport by making rules and making sure athletes meet Olympic standards（标准）. Whats more, men from at least 75 counties and women from at least 40 must play the sport.However, even meeting those conditions isnt enough. The IOC always tries to keep the number of athletes at about 40,000 for each Olympic. Since most modern Olympics already included so many athletes, introducing a new sport often means cutting other events.The country that hosts the games is allowed to suggest what new sports should be included. While new sports are added to the Olympics, most of them will simply become events in another sports meeting. In Beijing, open water swimming will become part of swimming, while womens steeplechase（障碍赛）will be added to athletics. 根据文章内容，完成下列任务：1. How can a sport be added to the Olympics? 从短文中找出三个条件。 2. 根据文章内容，选择适当的词语完成句子。 and will become new sports in the 2008 Olympics. （五）What is your favorite cartoon? It may be difficult for you to decide.

However, this is not always correct.Since the beginning of time no three words have ever invited more pleasure than “I love you”. But can love be bought? Im afraid not. Love means to give, not to take. To every person, health and a long life are probably the best things. Well, can health and a long life be bought with money? The answer is “No”.Of all the longest living people in the world, few of them are millionaires. True friendship cant be bought, either. In a word, where money is dreamed too much, it can cause brothers to quarrel, marriage to end, lovers to hate, and strangers to fight.
