Erden Eruc has been rowing across the Pacific Ocean(太平洋) in a rowboat since he left California on July 10, 2007. He has been heading for Australia with only birds, fish, and sharks ever since.
Crossing the Pacific is only part of his journey. Eruc has decided to go all the way around the world using his own energy. He will row, bike, walk, and climb the world without help from any motors(发动机) at all. His plan includes climbing the tallest peak on six of the continents ( 洲) along the way.
For the first part of his trip, he bicycled 5,546 miles from Seattle, Washington to Mount McKinley in Alaska and back, walked 67 miles to base camp, and climbed 20,320 feet to McKinley's peak. Now in the second part of his adventure ( 冒险活动) , he is rowing to Australia.
Why would he try to go around the world this way? He explains that he wants to encourage kids to dream their dreams and get to their own goals. He wants to show kids that there might be hard parts along the way, and sometimes they might not even get to that final goal. But they can have great adventures and learn a lot along the way.
Eruc. has already faced some difficulties. For example, winds and waves keep pushing him westward when he wants to go south toward the Solomon Islands. If his luck doesn't change, he will cheerfully change his plan, and aim to land at Papua New Guinea. One way or another, he's sure he'll get to his next goal: Australia.
When his trip around the world takes him across land, he enjoys meeting people—especially children. He has already visited many schools and shared his story.
Eruc encourages all kids to set their eyes on a goal and not give up. He says, "With goals, we will make progress, and we will be farther along than when we started, even if we don't get to some goals. Tnat's called life!"

Did you know that each day one person in the US throws away 4.4 pounds of rubbish? Almost every month, we throw away our own rubbish in packaging alone. Packaging (including boxes, bags, etc) comes to our homes with the things we have bought. Several weeks ago, the TV news said that in a city in Italy tons of rubbish were piled up in the streets, and the smell was rather terrible. What can we do to help? We should get to know the following Rs.
Reduce To reduce means to make less rubbish. That is one of the first things we all should do for the environment. Reduce your rubbish by doing things like packing your lunch in reusable containers( 可再利用的容器), taking smaller potions(份) at dinner so you don't waste food when you have had enough, writing on both sides of paper, and using less water when taking a shower.
Reuse To reuse is to use things again. Think about the bags you get from the store. They can be reused to carry your lunch, to hold your rubbish, or to collect used cans. You can even take them back to the store the next time to carry your things instead of getting a new bag!
Recycle (回收利用) Recycling is an important part of keeping our planet clean and green. It can also save energy. Be sure that you don't throw things in the rubbish that can be recycled to make something else. Paper, plastic, cans and bottles can all be recycled, but food, electrical waste and mobile phones can't. When you are not sure whether something can be recycled, go to your parents and teachers for advice.
Follow the three Rs, and every one of us can do something to save the earth. It is also the best way to save ourselves.
( )51. The first paragraph of the passage implies( 暗示) that________.
A. packaging should be given up B. Italy is too dirty for us to visit
C. the US produces most rubbish D. the earth is becoming dirtier

A. make good use of your paper B. take a bath instead of a shower
C. eat a small dinner every day D. pack your lunch with newspapers

A. only as rubbish bags B. only for carrying other things
C. mainly to have a cleaner world D. mainly to save some money
( )54. Which of the following can be recycled?
A. Food and bottles. B. Books and newspapers.
G. Paper and mobile phones. D. Plastic and electrical waste.
( )55. The passage mainly tells us that________.
A. all useless things can be recycled B. the environment is greatly improving
G. the three Rs can help us clean the earth D. we should never throw any rubbish away

You want to know about my staying in America, right? Well, to tell you the truth, it is really an eye-opening experience to study here.
In China, I had English classes five times a week since fifth grade. However, I didn’t know how different textbook English could be from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss School, Connecticut.

Since then, I have discovered more and more differences between Chinese and US cultures.
To my surprise, US girls spend a lot of time in the burning sun to get a tan(晒黑). However, in China, girls try every possible way to get their skin paler, or “whiter”.
I was also surprised by how hardworking US students are.
In China, schoolwork is almost everything, so we study hard and that’s it. But here, a “good” student gets good grades, does a lot of for the public and plays sports or music.
The kids here are so talented, I am starting to be sorry that I gave up playing the piano at an early age and that I have never thought about sports.
