There was a story many years ago of a school teacher—Mrs. Thompson.She told the children on the first day that she loved them all the same.But that was a lie.There in the front row was a little boy named Teddy Stoddard.He didn’t play well with the other children and he always needed a bath.She did not like him.
Then Mrs. Thompson got to know that Teddy was actually a very good boy before the death of his mother.Mrs. Thompson was ashamed of herself.She felt even worse when, like all her other students, Teddy brought her a Christmas present, too.It was his mother’s perfume(香水)
Teddy said ,“Mrs. Thompson, today you smell just like my Mom used to.”After the children left , she cried for at least an hour.On that very day, she stopped teaching reading, writing and math.Instead, she began to teach children.
Mrs. Thompson paid particular attention to Teddy.The boy’s mind seemed to come alive.The more she encouraged him, the faster he improved.By the end of the sixth grade, Teddy had become one of the smartest children in the class.
Six years went by before she got a note from Teddy.He wrote that he had finished high school and she was still the best teacher he ever had in his whole life.He went to college.Mrs. Thompson got two more letters from him with the last one signed: Theodore Stoddard ,M.D.(医学博士).
The story doesn’t end there.On his wedding day, Dr.Stoddard whispered in Mrs. Thompson’s ear ,“Thank you, Mrs.Thompson, for believing in me.You made me feel important and showed me that I could make a difference.”
Mrs.Thompson, with tears in her eyes, whispered back ,“ Teddy, you have it all wrong.You were the one who taught me that I could make a difference.I didn’t know how to teach until I met you.”

We all enjoy the beautiful show of colours as leaves change each autumn. But did you ever wonder how and why this happens?
Leaves are nature’s food factories. Plants take water from the ground through their roots and take carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) from the air. Plants use sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into glucose (葡萄糖). Glucose is a kind of sugar, which plants use as food for energy and growing.
The way plants turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar is called photosynthesis that means “ putting together with light”. A chemical called chlorophyll helps photosynthesis. It gives plants their green colour. As summer ends and autumn comes, the days get shorter and shorter, and trees “know” to begin getting ready for winter.
During winter, there is not enough light or water for photosynthesis. Trees rest during this time and live on the food they store during the summer. They begin to shut down their food-making factories.
As the green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves, we begin to see yellow and orange leaves. Small amounts of these colours have been in the leaves all along. We just can’t see them in the summer, because they are covered up by the green chlorophyll.
The bright reds and purples we see in leaves are made mostly in autumn. In some trees, like maples (枫树), glucose is caught in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. Sunlight and the cool nights of autumn turn this glucose into a red colour. The brown colour of trees like oaks (橡树) is made from waste left in the leaves.
It is the mixture of all these things that makes the beautiful colours we enjoy during autumn.
小题1:The word “chlorophyll” in the third paragraph means _______ in Chinese.
A.叶绿素B.氧气C.胡萝卜素D.蛋白质
小题2:The leaves of the trees in autumn turn yellow because of the short of _____.
A.water and carbon dioxide
B.glucose and energy
C.sunlight and water
D.sunlight and carbon dioxide
小题3:The way that _______________________ is called Photosynthesis .
A.plants change water and carbon dioxide into sugar
B.plants turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar with the help of sunlight
C.plants use glucose as food for energy and growing
D.chlorophyll is a great help
小题4:Which of the following is NOT true?
A.When autumn and winter come, the days get shorter and shorter.
B.During winter trees rest and live on the food they store during the summer.
C.During winter small amounts of yellow and orange colours are kept in the leaves all the time.
D.Trees begin to stop making food in summer.
小题5:This passage tells us __________________.
A.all the plants can grow well with the strong sunlight
B.there are all kinds of plants on the earth
C.all the colours of the leaves aren’t made from chlorophyll
D.maples and oaks have the same reason as other trees for the change of colours

People usually talk about two groups of colors: warm colors and cool colors. Scientists think that there are also two kinds of people: people who prefer warm colors and people who prefer cool colors. The warm colors are red, orange and yellow. Where there are warm colors and a lot of lights people usually want to be active. People think that red, for example, is exciting. Sociable people, those who like to be with others, like red.
The cool colors are green, blue and violet. These colors, unlike warm colors, are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet. People who like to spend time alone often prefer blue. Red may be exciting, but one scientist says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm colors than in a room with cool colors. He says that a warm color, such as red or orange, is good color for a living room or restaurant. People who are resting or eating do not want time to pass quickly.

Just a Quick Nap(打个盹儿)
  Do you feel a little sleepy after lunch? Well, that’s normal. Your body naturally slows down then. What should you do about it? Don’t reach for a coffee! Instead, take a nap.
  It’s good to have a daily nap. First of all , you are more efficient(有效的) after napping. You remember things better and make fewer mistakes. Also, you can learn things more easily after taking a nap. A nap may increase your self-confidence and make you more active. It may even cheer you up. But, there are some simple rules you should follow about taking a nap. First, take a nap in the middle of day, about eight hours after you wake up. Next, a 20-minute nap is best. If you sleep longer, you may fall into a deep sleep. After waking from a deep sleep, you will feel worse. Also, you should set an alarm clock. That way, you can fully relax during your nap. You won’t have to keep looking at the clock, so you don’t oversleep.
  Now, the next time you feel sleepy after lunch, don’t get stressed. Put your head down, close your eyes, and catch forty winks.
