As Tony walked with his family along the river, he saw a man playing a saxophone(萨克斯管) by the river . The man was wearing a hat with a leather strap(皮带) around his neck. He danced with the beautiful music from his saxophone. There was a large crowd of people around him. Tony’s family walked on up the river but he stayed there dreaming of playing a saxophone one day.
Two weeks later, it was Tony’s birthday. When he opened his present from his parents, he was glad to find it was a saxophone! He put it to his lips to play, but it wouldn’t make a sound. Then Dad told him to read the instrument book to find out what to do. After about 15 minutes, he raised it slowly to his lips as his family watched. But still there was no sound. He blew and blew but he couldn’t get the saxophone to play. He was almost crying when suddenly the saxophone made the most beautiful sound which made him think of the music of the man by the river. He blew again, he moved his fingers on the saxophone and he made more sounds. Some of them were loud and clear but many of them weren’t. He was happy because he was playing very interesting sounds.

Father and I left early. It was unusual for us to go into town together. Usually these shopping trips were Mother’s business and she planned everything. She arrived at the bus stop just before the bus. She always got the best seat. Father had no better plan than to be first at the stop, and so we waited for over an hour.
Finally the bus came and stopped, and the driver shouted at everyone, “Come on! Come on! Get on quickly!” People all climbed onto the bus. Father was polite and stood aside, so by the time we got on, there were no seats. We had to stand all the way into town. At last we arrived, cold and tired.
“I’m hungry,” I said. Father took me to a restaurant. It was warm and there was a wonderful smell. I felt better. We ate lunch and discussed the day.
“We’ll have a good time!” said Father. A whole day with my father was very unusual. We were preparing to visit my grandmother. That was unusual, too. Grandmother lived in the far north, a cold part of the country. Mother told me stories about it, and I was excited about the visit. “What’s it like in the north?” I asked Father. “It’s very cold,” he said. “We must buy some warm clothes.”
We went from shop to shop, buying shoes, thick socks, scarves and gloves. We had more and more bags to carry. It was nearly time to get the bus home, but we still had one more shop to visit. Looking at the bags, Father said “I think that’s all. Let’s come again next time.”

注意:每个空格只填1个单词。
Mayme Clayton collected books, magazines and letters
written by African Americans. Her son, Avery Clayton,
thought her collection was important. Unlike most books,
these were rare and hard to find. They were written
by writers who helped shape African American culture.
One book in the collection was written by Phillis Wheatley. Wheatley was a slave who wrote poetry. She was the first African American to publish (出版) a book. Wheatley herself signed (签名) the book in the Claytons’ collection. No one else owns a copy signed by Phillis Wheatley.
By the time she passed away at age 83, Mrs. Clayton had more than 30,000 books by or about black people. Her collection also includes papers about slaves, photographs, movies, sheet music, and personal letters by black leaders and artists. It is one of the biggest personal collections of African American history and culture in the United States.
Avery Clayton’s dream was to create a museum for his mother’s treasures. Scholars say that Mrs. Clayton’s collection is very important. Without her work, part of African American heritage (遗产) would have been lost. “We didn’t know these things existed,” says Sara Hadron of California’s Huntington Library.
The collections new home is likely to be in Culver City, California. Part of Avery Clayton’s dream is to share the cultural riches his mother collected with others. He especially wants kids to have a chance to see the collection. “ At present African American culture is being explained by pop culture,” he says, “ It’s important to offer a more complete picture.”

How do students spend their spare time after finishing their homework? Watch TV, play computer games, or go outside to relax? Here’s a good example.
Tim and Kerry Meek are both teachers. They live in the UK with their two daughters: eleven-year-old Amy and nine-year-old Ella. Recently, the Meek family has become the focus of the whole country after they completed 100 different outdoor activities in one year.
The Meek couple didn’t want their children to spend all their free time in front of the TV and become “couch tomatoes”. So about one year ago, the Meeks decided that watching TV and playing computer games were not permitted . Instead, they set 100 tasks for the two girls to do outside. Although Mr. and Mrs. Meek are not outdoor activity fans, they took part in all the activities to encourage their daughters. It turns out that the two sisters really had a good time joining activities.
Every holiday and weekend, whether it’s sunny, rainy or snowy, the Meeks’ would set off to try the activities on their list, including hiking, sailing, climbing , skiing, and so on. The two little girls not only had a wonderful time, but also learned a lot of skills from the activities. They were even able to stand up in front of their school to give a talk for charity. “Our friends spend a lot of their free time doing things which are harmful to their health. Luckily, we’ve had the chance to experience something different.” Amy and Ella also helped their parents to draw up a new list of challenges for the next 12 months.
