Those still alive in Valdosta,Georgia in 2060 will be able to share a part of their youth with the youth
of the day, when the city"s time capsule (时间胶囊) is dug up in Drexel Park.
Students from the Valdosta City School System have had a hand in collecting information that will be
placed in the time capsule.
Kindergarten to the second graders studied transportation (交通). Third through fifth graders looked
at the technology of today. Sixth through eighth focused on (关注) music and entertainment. Ninth
through twelfth graders went to
work on fashion and food.
Students were asked to make a scrapbook (剪贴簿) page recording their specific (特定的) area.
The high school pages are a wonder of color and design.
Many students detai1(详述) the food of the moment. Susanna Sin,16,includes the local. restaurants. " People will want to know what is here,and maybe it will be here then," said Sin,an 11th grader. Sin
doubts that much will change
in 50 years. Teenagers will still want to hang out with friends,and people will still be searching for the things that make them happy,she said.
Education,however,would be completely different,she added. Technology will be even more
important in the lives of students in 2060.
Katherine Wakeley,16,said the scrapbook would give the people of 2060 a chance to see what
was popular in 2010 , especially where fashion was concerned (相关的). " Skinny jeans and rips in
your pants are the biggest things , "Wakeley said.
The hugely popular Glee television show,as well as teenage superstars Miley Cyrus and the Jonas
Brothers,is also mentioned in the scrapbook.
Though fashion,music and movies will change. Wakeley doesn"t believe that Valdosta will ever let go
of its greatest passion-football.
"It"ll still be here," Wakeley said.
All the students said it would be interesting to see the capsule opened,but the teenage dreaming of
escaping the hometown stopped them from saying they would be here to see it in 2060.
But "it would be cool to see them open it," Greenhaw said.
B. The possible changes in Valdosta over the next 50 years.
C. The most popular things for children in Valdosta in 2010.
D. Children in Valdosta collecting information for a time capsule.
B. Famous hotels.
C. The Jonas Brothers.
D. Best US inventions in 2010.
B. The passion for football.
C. The lifestyle of the city.
D. Education.
B. People are more interested in knowing what life will be like in 50 years" time than in the past.
C. Different graders have been set the tasks of finding different kinds of information.
D. Most students have promised to come back for the 2060 0pening of the capsule.

people,we are usually friends with only a very few. For example,the average among students is about 6
per person. In all the cases of friendly relationships,two people like one another and enjoy being together, but beyond that, the degree of intimacy(亲密) between them and the reasons for their shared interests
varyc变化) greatly. As we get to know people,we think about things like age, race, and the economic
condition. It is more difficult to get on with people when there is a marked difference in age and the
background.
Some friendly relationships can be kept on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to
have similar ideas and beliefs,the same opinions and interests- they often talk about "being on the same
wavelength". It generally takes time to reach this point. And the more intimately involved people become,
the more they depend on one another. People who want to be friends have to learn to put up with
annoying habits and to stand differences.
In contrast (比较) with the marriage, there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the
associationc友谊) between two people. But the supporting and understanding of each other that results
from shared experiences and emotions does seem to create a powerful bond,which can overcome
differences in the background, and break down barriers(障碍)of age,class or race.
B. friends are closer than people who just get on with each other
C. all people know how to make friends
D. every student has six friends
B. there are no special ceremonies to strengthen friendship
C. standing differcnces in opinions can lead to friendship
D. friendship can be strengthened by smiles and soft voices
B. are the same in all ways
C. have the same background
D. share the same way of thinkirig and the same interests
B. Friends never argue with each other.
C. It generally takes time for people to become close friends.
D. Someone"s habits may make his friends unhappy.
next move…acting as a team member…these are all "game" ideas that you will come across throughout
your life.
Think about some of the games you played as a young child, such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek. Such games are entertaining and fun. But perhaps more importantly, they translate life into exciting dramas that teach
children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives, such as taking turns
and cooperating(合作).
Many children"s games have a practical side. Children around the world play games that prepare them
for work they will do as grown-ups. For instance, some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones, which sharpens the hand-eye coordination (协调) needed in hunting.
Many sports encourage national or local pride. The most famous games of all, the Olympic Games,
bring athletes from around the world together to take part in friendly competition. People who watch the
event wave flags, knowing that a gold medal is a win for an entire country, not just the athlete who earned
it. For countries
experiencing natural disasters or war, an Olympic win can mean so much.
Sports are also an event that unites people. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. People on
all continents play it-some for fun and some for a living. Nicolette Iribarne, a Californian soccer player, has
discovered a way to spread hope through soccer. He created a foundation to provide poor children with
not only soccer balls but also a promising future.
Next time you play your favorite game or sport, think about why you enjoy it, what skills are needed,
and whether these skills will help you in other aspects of your life.
B. obey the basic rules
C. act as a grown-up
D. predict possible danger
B. turn real-life experiences into a play
C. make learning life skills more interesting
D. change people"s views of sporting events
B. It proves the exceptional skills of the winners.
C. It helps the country out of natural disasters.
D. It earns the winners fame and fortune.
B. provide soccer balls for children
C. give poor kids a chance for a better life
D. appeal to soccer players to help poor kids
B. Sports can get all athletes together.
C. People are advised to play games for fun.
D. Sports increase a country"s competitiveness.
cats are just as used to the warm shelter (住所) as they are. Some owners will leave their animals outside
for a long period of time, thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors. This can put their pets in danger of serious illness. There are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe.
Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad. If you have to take them out, stay outside with them. When you"re cold enough to go inside, they probably are too. I you must leave them
outside for a long time, make sure they have a warm, solid shelter against the wind, thick bedding, and
plenty of non-frozen water.
If left alone outside, dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter. They can dig
into snow banks or hide somewhere. Watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them
with shelter of good quality. Keep an eye on your pet"s water. Sometimes owners don"t realize that a
water bowl has frozen and their pet can"t get anything to drink. Animals that don"t have clean and
unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside, which may contain something unhealthy for them.
B. They are used to living outdoors.
C. They build their won shelter.
D. They like to stay in warm places.
B. To keep them from eating bad food.
C. To help them find shelters.
D. To keep them company.

strong. But you need to be quick. And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind.
First, you must ask yourself, "Where is the wind coming from? Is it coming from ahead or behind or
from the side?" You must think about this all the time on the boat. The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail.
Let"s start with the wind blowing from the behind. This means the wind and the boat are going in the
same direction. Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat. It should be at a 90° angle (角度)
to the boat. Then it will catch the wind best.
If the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat. In this case, you must keep the sail
half way outside the boat. It should be at a 45 ° angle to the boat. It needs to be out far enough to catch
the wind, but it shouldn"t flap (摆动). It shouldn"t look like on a flagpole. If it is flapping, it is probably out
too far, and the boat will slow down.
Sailing into the wind is not possible. If you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop. You may want
to go in that direction. It is possible, but you can"t go in a straight line. You must go first in one direction
and then in another. This is called tacking. When you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside
the boat.
B. Wave levels.
C. Wind directions.
D. Size of sails.
B. The wind.
C. The sail.
D. The angle.
B. Allow the sail to flap.
C. Lower the sail.
D. Tack the boat.
B. In a tourist guidebook.
C. In a physics textbook.
D. In an official report.
Kind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure. The generation
born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down
because "everyone"s winter." And their report cards sounded more positive (正面的) than ever before.
As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them "the overpraised generation."
Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years. Her research has led her to find out
two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it. Here"s how they work:
A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent (才能) is genetic - you"re a born artist, point guard,
or numbers person. The fixed mind-set believes it"s sure to succeed without much effort and regards
failure as personal shame. When things get difficult, it"s quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from
future difficulties.
On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and
learning make everything possible. Because the ego (自尊) isn"t on the line as much, the growth mind-set
sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it"s quick to rethink, change and
try again. In fact, it enjoys this experience.
We are all born with growth mind-sets. (Otherwise, we wouldn"t be able to live in the world.) But
parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and
misdirecting praise. Dweck"s book, Mind-set: The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional
program explain this in depth. But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make
sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.
B. They are often misunderstood.
C. They are eager to win in sports.
D. They are given too much praise.
B. cares a lot about personal safety
C. cannot share his ideas with others
D. can succeed with the help of teachers
B. Talent comes with one"s birth.
C. Scores should be highly valued.
D. Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.
B. Prevent them from making mistakes.
C. Guide them in doing little things.
D. Help them grow with praise.
