Hey， guys! I have a lot of things I don't need， so I'm thinking about having a yard sale． What do you think？
|
Thank you!
|
Having a yard sale is not easy． You have to collect things， put prices on them， put them out on tables and then wait for people to come． And usually you have to sell things at VERY low prices． For all that time and work， you make very little money． Why not just sell your things online for higher prices？ |
Debby's right． But I think it'd be even better to just give your things to people who need them． I just sent out a lot of things last week． |
Hey， I love yard sales! It's a great chance to make big money if you choose the right day． In my experience， Saturday is the best．
|
I agree with Albert． You can make money and meet interesting people． I made some good friends at my last yard sale．

I have a friend called Mark. Last Sunday it was a beautiful day. When it got too hot, Mark rolled up his sleeves. I was very surprised to see that he had a tattoo! Then he told me he has lots of tattoos. He has tattoos on his arms, legs, chest and back. So of course I asked him lots of questions about the tattoos!
“It was ten years ago,” he said, “I remember I was on an island in the middle of the sea. I chose a dolphin tattoo because I wanted to have something about the sea.”
“I liked the idea of doing more designs about the sea. So after the dolphin I had an octopus, and then a starfish. These are on my left leg. Then, over my left arm I had lots of fish swimming together. They took a long time to do. I also have a crab and a lobster too!”
“Most recently I got a mermaid. It was finished two weeks ago. I saw a painting of a beautiful mermaid in a museum. I took a photograph and then decided to get a tattoo. I made the design a little simpler.”
“People ask me if getting a tattoo hurts. It depends. If you feel relaxed then it’s OK. But if you’re tired or nervous then you feel it more. It also depends where on the body the tattoo is done.”Where did the writer find the tattoo?
A. On Mike’s sleeves. B. On Mike’s arms. C. On Mike’s body. When was the mermaid done?
A. Ten years ago. B. Last Sunday. C. Two weeks ago. Where did he get the idea for the beautiful mermaid?

B. people can do anything they like with their tattoos
C. people have different feelings about their tattoos What does “tattoo” mean?

Work is helpful to health．Scientists find that the hard﹣working people live longer than those who have no jobs．Studies show that the jobless are in poorer health than job﹣holders．Career（ 职业的） women are healthier than housewives．
Why is work good for health？It is because work keeps people busy，away from loneliness．Researches show that people feel unhappy，worried and lonely when they have nothing to do．Instead，Instead，the happiest people are those who are busy．Many high achievers who love their careens feel they happiest when they are working hard．They work as a bridge between dream and reality，so they have energy every day．By work，people get to know each other．By taking part in all kinds of activities，they find friendship and warmth．This is helpful to health．The loss（丧失）of work means the loss of everything．It affects man's spirit and it will cause more illnesses．
Besides，work gives one a sense of hope and a sense of achievement．Work makes one feel his
value and status（形象） in society．When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow，they are happy beyond（ 超越） words．
From the above，we can come 如o a conclusion； the more you work，the happier and healthier
you will be．
29．How will people feel when they have nothing to do from the passage？

B．Happy but bored．
c．Worried and unhappy．

Some days，don't you think，"Wouldn't it be nice if the laundry would just do itself？"Self﹣cleaning clothes may sound crazy．But Australian researchers have found a way to make something like this possible!
A team at RMIT University in Melbourne，Australia，found a way to put special nanostructures （纳米结构） into clothing，which can then clean the clothes．When sunlight hits the nanostructures，they break down the dirt and stains （污渍） that don't belong on your clothes．
The nanostructures don't break down the actual clothing because cotton and the other clothing materials are too strong to be broken down．According to CNN，the researchers cover the clothing in a solution made of silver and copper （铜） nanostructures．All it takes is 40minutes of sunlight and your clothes will look as good as new．
So if you spill on yourself during lunch，you can step outside for a walk，and it will be clean by the time you go inside．It not only makes your life easier，but it can also be good for the environment．
According to the US Department of Energy，the average load of laundry uses about 25gallons （about 94liters） of water．Water is a very important resource，so using less of it to wash clothes is better for the environment．But one of the scientists at RMIT University knows more needs to be done．
"There's more work to do before we can start throwing out our washing machines，"said Dr Rajesh Ramanathan，"but this is a strong foundation （基础）．"
So what's the next step？Ramanathan wants to either start selling the solution by itself or convincing （说服） clothing makers to treat the clothing with the solution while clothes are being made．
57．How do the clothing with the nanostructures get cleaned？
A．Cotton clothes wash easily
B．This kind of clothing washes it by itself．
C．The dirt and stains are broken down in the sunlight．
D．Silver and copper help to get off the dirt in the dark．
58．What do Paragraphs 4﹣5talk about？
A．What advantages the self﹣cleaning clothes have．
B．How the self﹣cleaning clothes work．
C．How the self﹣cleaning clothes are made．
D．What helps the self﹣cleaning clothes work．
59．What does the underlined word"solution"in the last paragraph mean？
A．Machines
B．Clothes．
C．Silver．
D．Design．
60．What can we learn from the passage？
A．Silver and copper sell well．
B．The solution is not put into practice．
C．Clothing makes certainly like the solution．
D．We don't need washing machines any more．
