E—schoolbags
Is your schoolbag too heavy to carry? The e-schoolbag will help you. It is said that e-schoolbags are going to be brought into use in Chinese middle schools soon.
Heavy schoolbags have been a serious problem for a long time. But the e-schoolbag will work it out. An e-schoolbag is much lighter than a usual schoolbag. Perhaps, the e-schoolbag should be called an e-textbook. It is as small as a usual book, but it can still have all the things for study, such as a textbook, an exercise book and so on. They can be made into chips(芯片) like stamps. The students can read the text page by page on the screen, take notes, or even send e-mails to their teachers. They only need to put the right chip into the e-schoolbag and then the students can use it.

Antifreeze is a liquid(液體) that is added to water to keep it from freezing. When water freezes and turns to ice,it expands(膨脹).The force of water expanding is so great that it will break the hardest metal.Water is used in car engines(發(fā)動機) to keep them cool while they run,and if this water is allowed to freeze in winter it can break the iron block of the engine.That is why antifreeze is necessary.
Water freezes at 0℃;the usual kind of antifreeze will not freeze until the temperature is-40℃.A mixture(混合物) of five parts of water and four parts of antifreeze will prevent freezing at-18℃;four parts of water and five parts of antifreeze reduce this to -22℃.
Alcohol is a kind of good antifreeze,but when the air is running it becomes hot and the alcohol boils away,so it must be changed very often.Most people use antifreeze that does not boil away when the engine is running.There are several chemicals that do this.One of the most popular is called ethylene glycol.

Escaping (逃) from a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save a life. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family, for example, you can use stairways, roofs and fire escapes, but no lifts.
From the lower floors of buildings, to escape through windows is possible. Learn the best way of leaving by a window with the least chance of serious injury.
The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average (平均) person, hanging from the window by the fingertips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground--about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.
Windows are also useful while you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed, before opening the window. Otherwise, smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low next to the window to be sure you get fresh air.
On the second or third floor, the best windows to escape from are those which open onto a roof (屋頂) . From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely.

In most languages, a greeting is usually followed by “small talk”. Small talk means the little things we talk about at the start of a conversation.
In English-speaking countries people often make small talk about the weather: “Nice day, isn’t it?” “Terrible weather, isn’t it?” But there is something special about small talk. It must be about something which both people have the same opinion about. The purpose of small talk is to let both people agree on something. This makes meeting people easier and more comfortable. People usually agree about the weather, so it is a safe topic for small talk. But people often disagree about religion or politics so these are not suitable topics for small talk in English. The topics for small talk also depend on where the conversation is taking place. At football matches, people make small talk about the game they are watching: “Great game, isn’t it?” At bus stops, people may comment about the transport system: “The bus service is terrible, isn’t it?”
Greetings and small talk are an important part of conversation in any language. The way people great each and the things they talk about, however, may be different from one language to another. This shows that there is much more to learn when we learn a language than just the vocabulary and the grammar of the language. We also have to learn the social behavior of the people who speak it.
小題1:Small talk ___.
A.is a kind of conversation with short words
B.is a greeting when people meet each other
C.is to let people disagree about something
D.is something we talk about to start a conversation
小題2:The best topic of small talk is about ___.
A.the weatherB.politicsC.GamesD.languages
小題3:The passage suggests that when we learn a language ___.
A.we should learn about the transport system of the country
B.we should only master the grammar and vocabulary
C.we should know the culture about the country
D.we should grasp the importance of the language
小題4:When we say “Great game, isn’t it?” we in fact___.
A.a(chǎn)sk a questionB.have a conversation
C.greet each otherD.begin a small talk
小題5:What we learn from the passage is that ___.
A.different language has different grammar
B.small talk is an important part in a language
C.small talk depends on the purpose of the conversation
D.in English-speaking countries we should talk about the weather.

Fujian Tulou is a special type of Chinese building. People built most of them between the 12th and the 20th century. The oldest one has a history of more than 1,000 years.
Tulou is usually a large rectangular(長方形的)or round building with high walls. The walls are made of earth, stones, bamboo and wood, so they are thick and strong. They can not only keep the building safe from the wind and earthquake, but also make it warm in winter and cool in summer. There is usually only one main gate in each Tulou and up to (至多)80 families can live in it. It is like a small city.
UNESCO(聯(lián)合國教科文組織)chose a total of 46 Fujian Tulou as a World Heritage Site(世界文化遺產(chǎn))in 2008. Fujian Tulou set a good example for the world. Man can live in harmony(和諧,融洽)with the environment.

Some people remember the things by writing notes to themselves. Then they leave the notes in obvious(明顯的) places, such as on the table or on the floor in the middle of the living room. I don’t think I like to write notes to myself. Most of the time I lose them or forget to look at them until it’s too late. I prefer to use an alarm clock to tell me what I should do. I have ten alarm clocks in my house. They could tell me about things. For example, if I have to make a telephone call at a certain time, I’ll set an alarm clock to go off a few minutes early and put the clock by the telephone. Or if I want to watch a certain television program, I’ll set an alarm clock at the right time and put the clock on top of the TV set. I can remember almost anything if I use my clocks. However, sometimes an alarm clock goes off and I don’t know what it means. I always remember setting it, but I do not know why I set it. If the clock is by the telephone, I know I may have set it to tell me to call someone, but I can’t be sure. I might have set it to tell myself that somebody was to call me at a certain time.
