It is not easy for people to travel around the world in quite small boats. Sometimes the weather gets bad．Accidents (事故) can happen easily and quickly.

   One family once had an accident. A big fish swam under their boat and bit holes in it. Sea water came in and the boat soon went down. Luckily these people had another small boat——a lifeboat, so they all got into the lifeboat. They lived in the boat for many days. They ate and slept, and always hoped．At last people in a ship saved them.

   How do people live in a very small lifeboat for a long time? They must be strong in every way, they must have a hope, and they must have a strong desire (愿望) to live. People cannot drink seawater. If they drink a lot of sea water, they will quickly die. They must catch rainwater and drink it. They must also catch fish and birds for food．Lifeboats do not often carry cookers. So people can not cook their food in the lifeboats. Raw (生的) fish and birds are not very nice but they are their only food．They must eat raw food, or they will die.

Passage Five

Mary Donaldson is worried about her 16-year-old daughter. Sophia. Six months ago, Sophia came back from a party, upset and unhappy. From then on，(1)she thinks of nothing but how to lose weight and become beautiful. She refuses to eat and keeps on doing exercise. (A)Sophia had always been a little heavy, so when he decided to go on a diet, Mary encouraged her. (2)She felt that her daughter would look more attractive if she loses 10 kilograms. However, Sophia has lost over 20 kilograms until now. Her eating and exercising habits are having a harmful effect on her health. She is too thin and is often sick.

Her mother is trying to prevent her from going on a diet and losing weight, but Sophia thinks that she is still too heavy and refuses to start eating as usual. Sophia's mind is full of the idea of looking like a model. (B)Every day she goes to a club to do exercise. When she is not there, she spends her time reading magazines like Fashion & Beauty (《时尚与美》). The models in these magazines are very thin and beautiful. Sophia says. "If I look like these models, I will be happy."

(C)Mary doesn't know how to help (3)her daughter. She feels sorry for having encouraged her at first, because Sophia no longer feels good or pleased with her body. She's afraid that Sophia will never be happy if she keeps comparing herself with the models in the magazines. (D) Common people are not supposed to look like models. The most ordinary face becomes (4)beautiful when the person behind it is filled with confidence, wisdom and the joy of life.

Happiness is for everyone ,Why? You don’t need to care about the rich .They have big houses but they may often feel lonely because they have few friends to talk with, They have cars but they want to walk on the country roads in their free time.

In fact ,Happiness is always around you. When you are in trouble , your friends will help you. When you study hard at your lessons ,your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health. All these are happiness.

When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else. Money can’t buy that. When you meet with problems, say loudly that you are happy , because you have more chances to challenge (挑战) yourself.

If you get a chance ,take it and you can be a happy and lucky man.

It is not easy for people to sail (航海) around the world in quite small boats. Sometimes the weather gets bad. Accidents(事故) can happen easily and quickly.

One family once had an accident. A big fish swam under their boat and bit holes(洞) in it. Sea water came in and the boat soon went down. Luckily these people had another small boat——a lifeboat, so they all got into the lifeboat. They lived in the boat for many days. They ate and slept, and always hoped. At last people in a ship saved them.

How do people live in a very small lifeboat for a long time? They must be strong in every way. They must have a hope, and they must have a strong desire（愿望）to live. People cannot drink seawater. If they drink a lot of sea water, they will quickly die. They must catch rainwater and drink it. They must also catch fish and birds for food. Lifeboats do not often carrycookers. So people cannot cook their food in the lifeboats. Raw (生的) fish and birds are not very nice but they are their only food. They must eat raw food, or they will die.

The Internet has become part of teenage(青少年) life. Thereˈs a report on 3, 375 students aged from 10 to 18 in seven Chinese cities. It says that 38 % of them believe they use the Internet often. While most of them get useful information and use the Internet to help in their studies, some are not using it in a good way. Many are playing online games too much. A few even visit Web sites they should not look at. Bad things can happen if young people spend too much time on the Internet.

In order to help young people use the Internet in a good way, a textbook on good Internet behavior has started to be used in some Shanghai middle schools this term. It uses real examples to teach students all about good ways of using the Internet.Itgives useful advice such as itˈs good to read news or find helpful information to study. Some students also make online friends. But if you are meeting a friend online, let your parents know.

Teachers and parents all think the book is a very good idea. It will teach students how to be a good person in the online world. It will be a guide for teens using the Internet and keep students away from bad sites.

One little miracle (奇迹) has been happening to me recently, and it gives me a special joy.

A few months ago, I was telling my daughter, Sally, some stories about my mother. My 

daughter was so young when my mother died that she doesn’t remember her well. I told her all 

I could remember, like how wonderful my mother was and how much she meant to me.

One day, Sally was sad because her grandmother was in heaven (天堂) and she couldn’t 

see her. I explained that though her grandmother was dead,  now she was still watching over us 

and could send us something to let us know she was there. She could be anywhere, even riding 

invisibly (看不见地) on the back of a butterfly (蝴蝶). Just after I said this, a butterfly 

flew down right by us, and we laughed happily.

Now many people would say it was just luck that the butterfly flew down at that time. A funny 

thing, however, has happened since then. Every time I go out in any type of weather I see 

butterflies. Very often they fly right by my face to get my attention. I always say hi to Mom, 

send her my love, and thank God for little miracles.

Everyone is always looking for some big miracles to come out and save them when they are in 

trouble, but they don’t notice the little miracles that happen every day right in front of their 

eyes. I know what they really are, however. For me little miracles are the best kind. So many 

little miracles happen around me all the time that I know they are not just luck.
