Building Kids’ Fun
Mickey Mouse, Cinderella, Snow White and Winnie the Pooh...every kid dreams of the day they’ll get to visit these famous characters, and ,most important of all, the magical world of a Disney theme park. And five very lucky kids get to experience all the excitement as often as they’d like in their grandpa’s backyard—no waiting in lines necessary.
A Fullerton, California grandfather was inspired to create something so fun in his own backyard that his grandkids would always want to visit.
Steve Dobbs, 68, said his grandchildren got easily bored with a toy train that he got them to play with in his backyard. Lucky for them, he happened to be an amazing aerospace engineer(航空工程师).
“My younger grandkids are nuts about Disneyland,” Dobbs told The Orange County Register website.” I wanted to give them a reason to come over to my house to spend time with me, and Disneyland is tough to compete with.”
It all started with a “Small World” themed ride and it’s only grown from there over time. The mini theme park is full of the same kind of princesses, castles(城堡), trains and tunnels(隧道) you’ll see at the actual Disneyland park, which happens to be not too far from the Fullerton home.
It’s now complete with attractions inspired by Disney movie favorites such as Finding Nemo and Frozen.
And as the kids got older, their grandpa was sure to provide them with the full theme for a roller coaster(过山车). Dobbs is a professor at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, and he asked his students to help him build the ride.
All in all, the theme park has cost him about $6500(43470yuan) but it’s well worth it. “It’s an old man’s hobby,” Dobbs said.
But to his family, it’s so much more than that.
“Dobbsland might be miniature(微型的) in size, but it’s huge in the hearts of our family and friends,” Dobbs’ daughter Cori Linder wrote in a blog for the Babble website. “The best part about Dobbsland? Getting in is free”.

Scientists in Britain and the United States have made a new kind of enzyme(酵素) that eats plastics(塑 料). With its help, plastics can be turned into smaller parts and go away quickly. Scientists believe that, in the future, it could solve the problem of plastic pollution.
The enzyme is able to break down PET, a form of plastic. PET was first made in the 1940s and is now widely used to make plastic bottles. It can remain in the environment for many years and pollute large areas of land and water. So it has always been a headache to deal with the waste from PET and other plastics.
The researchers made the discovery(发 现) while examining the structure of a natural enzyme in Japan. They found that the natural enzyme was helping to break down PET plastics. So, they decided to make small changes to the enzyme by adding some amino acids(氨 基 酸). It made the natural enzyme’s plastic-eating abilities work faster and better.
John McGeehan, one of the lead researchers, said, “We’ve made an improved enzyme. It’s better than the naturl one. And we are trying to make more improvements to it.” He went on, “The enzyme is not harmful to humans or animals,and it is friendly to the environment. So we are considering putting it into wider use.”
The team is now trying to make the enzyme break down PET in large quantities(大量的). “We’ll see that the plastic pollution may be stopped with this technology. However,there is still a long way to go,”John McGeehan added.
1.According to the scientists, the enzyme may solve the poblem of pollution.
A. air B. water C. light D. plastic
2.The underlined phrase “break down” in the passage probably means “ ” in Chinese.
A. 实验 B. 生产 C. 发明 D. 分解
3.Researchers discovered that a natural enzyme helped eat plastics .
A. in B. in the US C. in Japan D. in China
4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The scientists are sill trying to improve the enzyme.
B. The enzyme will pollute large areas of land and water.
C. The natural enzyme woks better than the improved one.
D. The natural enzyme is harmful to humans and animals.

Fresh off his MasterChef Junior run, Evan Robinson, who is only 12 years old, is using his kitchen skills to raise money for Puerto Rico. The TV show contestant wanted to offer help after hurricanes(飓风) hit the country last September.
“I’ve been seeing, all over the news, people struggling,” Evan said. “They can’t get fresh water, electricity; they can’t get really anything. I know I’m just a kid, but I think if a lot of people do something, a lot of things will get better.”
He raises money by baking and taking online orders for homemade empanadas(馅 饼). He started cooking on a recent Friday night. By the next Sunday evening, he had filled orders for 420 empanadas — — roasted chicken, cheeseburger and vegetarian — — getting $18 for six empanadas and $30 for a dozen.
His mom, Veronica Robinson, helped him send the empanadas around the city. “We’ve never done anything like this before,” she said. “But it’s a great idea, so I want to help him make it work.”
For Evan’s out-of-town friends and supporters, he has set up a crowdfunding(众筹) page. Through it, he’s hoping to raise $1, 500 in “virtual (虚 拟 的) empanadas”. This is because he heard on the news that it could take Puerto Rico years, maybe even 10 years, to recover(复 原) from the hurricanes. And he said, “Fruit pies are up next. And my baking will continue as well.”
It’s a difficult job, especially for a kid with homework and Boy Scouts and friendships to tend to. But he doesn’t seem worried.
“It’s what we’re supposed to do.” he said. “I’m a human. They’re humans. Why shouldn’t I help them?”
Indeed.
1.How did Evan help those struggling in Puerto Rico?
A. He asked his parents to send the empanadas around the city.
B. He continued offering a lot of fresh water and fruit pies to them.
C. He donated his big winning prize in his MasterChef Junior run.
D. He raised money by selling homemade empanadas through online orders.
2.Evan set up a crowdfunding page because .
A. he raised more money than he expected for the people in need
B. he knew that it could take Puerto Rico a long time to recover
C. he wanted more and more friends to know his kitchen skills
D. the number of online orders was beyond his expectation
3.According to the passage, which are the best words to describe Evan?
A. kind-hearted and helpful B. careful and confident
C. honest and hard-working D. humorous and organized
4.How can we understand the last sentence in the passage?
A. Friendship is important in our lives. B. It’s difficult for humans to raise money.
C. We should help those who’re in need. D. Everyone must do something unusual.

When I was 14 years old, I used to babysit (做临时保姆) for the lady next door. Every two weeks she would pay me $80. I always looked forward to getting paid so I could go to the shopping centre with my friends on Saturday and spend the money on my favourite things.
One Friday evening I heard my mom on the phone with our neighbor and I heard her say a fewtimes, “Oh, that is terrible.” After my mom hung up, I asked what was wrong. She said that the neighbor had no food in her house and that she didn’t know what she was going to feed her daughter with. Her husband had spent their money on beer and got angry because his wife asked for money to buy groceries (食品杂货). He began to pull dishes out of the cupboards (壁橱) and threw them at the wall. So, the lady didn’t have any groceries or dishes.
I had an idea. I asked my mom to drive me to McDonald’s.I bought the lady and her daughter dinner with the babysitting money she had given me. After I had taken them dinner, I asked my mom to take me to the store and I bought the lady dishes and groceries with the rest of the money. When I knocked on the front door, the lady gave me a big hug and told me how grateful she was that I helped her. When Saturday came around, I didn’t have any money to go to the shopping centre with my friends, but I didn’t care, because I felt great that I was able to help this family.
Later, we moved away from the area. I saw our neighbor three times and she always told me how much she thanked me for caring her and her daughter.
