Reading newspapers has become an important part of everyday life. Some people read newspapers as the first thing to do in the morning, while others read newspapers as soon as they have spare time during the day so that they can learn what is happening in the world.
Sometimes, we do not have enough time to read all the news carefully, so we just take a quick look at the front page. At other times, we may be in such a hurry that we only have a few minutes to look at the headlines(标题) of the passage.
Newspapers can be found everywhere in the world. We can get many different kinds of newspapers in big cities, but in some mountain villages we can see few newspapers.
Some newspapers are published once a week, but most of the papers are published once a day with many pages, some even published twice a day! You know different people enjoy reading different newspapers. Some like world news and others prefer short stories. They just choose what they are interested in.

Do you often ride a bike to school? Here’s some advice for you.
Try not to use busy roads. In some cities there are special pains for bikes only. Use them when you can, but watch out—people often walk along them. Check the road before starting and look all around. Also, when you’re with friends on bikes, it’s much safer to ride behind, not next to, each other. Where one road meets another, you should take even more care. Slow down and check both roads. Use your eyes and be careful.
Check your bike often. Do all the parts work properly? Is there enough air in your tyres(轮胎)?
If you have an accident or fall off your bike, a helmet will protect your head. It must be the right
Size, so ask for help when you buy it.
You must use lights at night, so keep them clean and check the batteries. Don’t wear dark colours; yellow and white are the easiest colours for drivers to see.
A bike isn’t a toy and there should be only one person on it. Many children have accidents when
they play still games on their bike.
Red traffic lights aren’t only for cars and buses.They’re for you too if you’re on a bike.You’re also breaking the law if you go the wrong way up a one-way street.
Please choose best title for each blank.
| A．CAN THEY SEE YOU ? | B．LOOK AFTER YOUR BIKE. |
| C．BE READY FOR PROBLEMS. | D．DON’T BREAK THE LAW. |

Jay Kohl, an American student, posted an online advertisement two weeks ago searching for a Chinese family to stay with so that he can learn the language and culture.
“I’m a clean, non-smoking, and warm-hearted American man looking for a homestay in the Wudaokou area to improve my Chinese language skills,” he wrote. “I’m willing to offer help with English tutoring(家教) and even can help you with applying to foreign universities.”
He still hasn’t found a suitable home.
“Most of the families that contacted me seem to be interested in doing business instead of cultural exchange,” he said. “I think I might have to rent an apartment in the end.”
Kohl isn’t the only foreigner finding it difficult to find a homestay in Beijing. Michael Benson, who wants to come to Beijing in September, has also faced the same problems.
Why is finding a homestay family so difficult? Beijing Today consulted a Chinese teacher, Jessie Xi, who has been teaching foreign students at the University of International Business and Economics for more than six years.
Xi has accepted many homestays, and from her own experience and what she’s been told, she said there were four major problems visitors may meet when applying for homestays.
Problem 1: Having too high expectation for language improvement.
Problem 2: Considering oneself as a guest instead of a family member.
Problem 3: Not making clear what a family’s rules are beforehand.

Modern life is impossible without traveling. The fastest way of traveling is by plane. With a modern airliner(客机), you can travel in one day to places which needed a month or more to get to hundreds of years ago.
Traveling by train is slower than by plane, but you can see the places you are traveling through. Modern trains have comfortable seats and dining－cars. They even make the longest journey enjoyable(令人愉快的).
Some people prefer to travel by sea. You can visit many other countries or different parts of your country. Ships are not so fast as trains or planes, but traveling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday.
Many people like to travel by car. You can make your own timetable. You can travel three or four hundred miles or only fifty or one hundred miles a day, just as you like. You can stop if there is something interesting, for example, at a good restaurant where you can enjoy a good meal, or at a hotel to spend the night. That’s why traveling by car is popular for pleasure trips, while people usually take a train or a plane when they travel on business.

A 14-year-old British student is packing for the next day of school: textbooks, notebooks, pens, 250 grams of flour, an egg and some cooking oil. Wait, what? It’s not a joke.
From September, cookery will be a compulsory (必修的) course for kids aged 7-14 in the UK. Primary school students will learn how to put things together and make simple, healthy food. At high school, students will then master a number of different meals. They will also learn some cooking skills including baking.
Britain is sometimes known as a country with bad food and unhealthy eating habits. These new courses are part of the country’s effort to bring healthy food back onto the table.
“One in four British families no longer has a table that everyone can eat around. One out of every two meals we eat is eaten alone. Only four out of ten of us enjoy eating meals with our children,” British writer Joanna Blythman wrote in her book Bad Food Britain: How A Nation Ruined Its Appetite in 2006. Instead, ready meals have become the first choice for many British kids, because their parents are often too busy to cook a proper meal.
“It’s important that children can develop an interest and understanding of good food,” said a spokesman of the Department for Education. “We want to encourage them to develop a love of food and cooking that will stay with them as they grow up.
【小题1】What are high school students in UK supposed to learn about cookery?
【小题2】Is UK famous for its delicious food?
【小题3】How many British people of all enjoy eating meals with their children according to Joanna Blythman?
【小题4】Why have ready meals become very popular with many British kids?
【小题5】What’s aim of the cookery course in UK?

He suffered from a weight problem and has had a heart operation since leaving the White House. He takes the agreement as “a bold step forward in the struggle to help 35 million young people lead healthier lives”.

Britain has already taken similar steps to fight obesity. A recent study shows that people in the UK are much healthier than the people in the US. However, it’s better late than never.
