3.Robinson Crusoe is a famous novel written by Daniel Defoe.The book tells the story of a man who is shipwrecked (遭遇海難的).He spends 28 years on an island near Venezuela.The book tells the story of everything that happens to Robinson Crusoe.He hopes someone will rescue him,but he has been there for so long on his own that he also begins to fear being rescued.
Robinson Crusoe was published in 1719.Most experts believe the story is based on the life of Alexander Selkirk,who was a Scottish sailor.On an expedition in 1704,Selkirk had an argument with his ship's captain.Selkirk thought the ship was not safe and was about to fall apart.
When the ship stopped at a remote island to get fresh water,Selkirk got off.He tried to get the other crew members to leave with him,but nobody would.The shop then sailed away without him.Selkirk spent four years and four months on his own on the island,known as Aguas Buenas.
Selkirk was finally rescued by a ship that visited the island in 1709.The ship's captain was grateful to Selkirk because he provided food for the crew when they arrived.
Now archaeologists think they have found the remains of Selkirk's camp on Aguas Buenas.They found two deep holes that would have held wooden posts.The archaeologists say this is evidence that Selkirk built a shelter there.The post holes are near a fresh water stream.They are located quite high up,which would have meant that Selkirk was able to watch out for the ships coming close to the island.
The most interesting evidence,the archaeologists say,is part of a piece of equipment used by sailors to navigate.Historians believe Selkirk was a navigator,so the instrument could have belonged to him.
Robinson Crusoe was published ten years after Selkirk was rescued.Most experts think Daniel Defoe heard and read stories about Selkirk,which inspired him to write the book.

63.Why did Selkirk choose to land on the remote island?D
A.Because he had quarrels with the crew members.
B.Because the captain ordered him to get fresh water.
C.Because he wanted to go on an adventure there.
D.Because he thought the ship he was on was in danger.
64.We can infer from the text that the ship that visited Aguas Buenas in 1709B.
A.lost its way while sailing
B.was running out of food upon arrival
C.was being navigated by Selkirk
D.lacked fresh water upon arrival
65.How could Selkirk see ships that might rescue him,according to archaeologists?C
A.By asking the crew members on the ships.
B.By sending messages to the ships'captains.
C.By watching from his shelter high on the island.
D.By using a piece of equipment used to navigate.
66.The author wrote the text toA.
A.explain the origin of Robinson Crusoe
B.promote sales to Robinson Crusoe
C.criticise Alexander Selkrik's deeds
D.praise Daniel Defoe for his writing inspiration.

Our tour of antiques continues.There is a picture on the wall,(67)whichdates from 1867,and it is not in very good condition.There is a vase on the floor.I'm not certain where it came from,(68)and\butI didn't buy it new."The one thing about antiques,"I explain to Jenny,"is that they usually have a story."

2.Five Steps to Better Handwriting
Some kids love handwriting,but others hate when it's time to put their pen to paper.Maybe they are worried about their handwriting.Are you one of them?(36)F Here are five steps that really work!
Get a great grasp
Try this-hold your pencil at the top and try to write your name.Pretty hard?But when you hold your pencil the correct way,writing is much easier.(37)G Hold it in place with your thumb(大拇指),and your index(食指) and middle fingers.
Let the lines be your guide
Lined paper is your friend!Those lines can help you create letters that are the right size and proportion(均衡).(38)CAlso be sure to fill up the lined space completely.Those capital letters should be from the bottom line to the top one.
Slow down
If your writing is hard to read,try slowing down a little.If you rush,it's hard to control where you stop and start your letters.
Lower the pressure
(39)EThat makes it harder to make the smooth lines.Try easing up and don't hold the pencil too tightly.
(40)A
Lots of games require you to write or draw pictures.So even though it's not schoolwork,you're still using the skills you need to control your pen better.

A.Play games.
B.Ask for more advice.
C.So"a"should be half the height of a capital"A".
D.You've been writing since you were a little kid.
E.Some kids press down really hard when they write.
F.The good news is that just about everyone can improve their handwriting.
G.The best way to hold a pen or pencil is to let it rest next to the base of your thumb.
