Steven Cleaver has some outdoor activity ideas for families. The activities will drive your family’s sadness away. Steven is the Executive Director(执行理事)of Horizons for Youth, an organization in Massachusetts that has worked on children’s enviromental education for more than 60 years.
We asked Steven to share some outdoor activities that families can do together. Here’s what he told us.
Going to a nature center---In State Audubon societies, there are usually smaller nature centres. Naturalists are ready to answer kids’ questions so parents don’t need to worry about teaching the subject matter themselves.
Hiking---Going on a hike is a great way to go outdoors and get some exercise. State parks can offer free paths to hike along and many fields to explore.
Gardening--- Gardening is a wonderful family activity. Not only can the whole family get involved, but everyone can benefit from the harvest. Since it’s winter, you might just start with a family plan for the garden. The garden can be a cooperative effort where parents can teach their children teamwork. Assign tasks to each family member. Who plans? Who waters?
Fruit picking---It’s a great seasonal outdoor activity. Children get to see how fruits grow and everyone gets to enjoy the fruits which they pick.
Cleaning up---Taking part in nature clean-ups or volunteering to do path maintenance(维护)teaches kids that they have the ability to do something positive for the environment and communities. When parents get involved, they can set a good example for their children to follow, which will help children realize their responsibility to protect the environment.

阅读短文,根据短文内容回答下面的问题,将答案写在答题卡相应题号后的横线上。
Charter schools in the US operate with public money but without many of the rules that govern traditional public schools. In the United States the rules for charter schools are different from state to state. But in general these schools have greater freedom to decide what and how to teach.
A charter school might have nothing to do with the local public school system. It might be started by teachers, parents, community groups or a profit-making business.
Forty-seven million students go to traditional public schools. And more than a million students go to charter schools.
And now a group of charter schools have formed the Green Charter Schools Network. The idea is to have environment friendly school buildings but also to go further than that.
The schools teach students to give lots of time and attention to the community problems that affect them and the environment. For example, young children grow vegetables in a school garden and learn about healthy eating. Older students help recycle waste from restaurants. And local schools share what they grow in community gardens with people in need.
Jim McGrath is president of the Green Charter Schools Network. He says there are about two hundred “green” charter schools across the United States. And the Green Charter Schools Network holds its first national conference this October in Minnesota. Supporters of green schools say their goal is to let the movement be popular across the country.
小题1:. Are the rules for charter schools the same in the US?  
小题2:. How many students go to charter schools? 
小题3:. What do students in charter schools often do?
小题4:. Do teachers teach students to protect the environment or to know the Network?  
小题5:. Why do supporters hope charter schools to be popular across the country?

Today it is found that most middle school students pay little attention to sports. It’s because they have no interest in sports? It may not be the fact.
They often say they have other more important things to do. What are these important things? Exams! They usually spend over ten hours a day revising for exams. So many of them almost become bookworms. In the summer holidays they could hardly do anything they like. Books ①____ them from taking part in sports. Because of the stress from their parents and teachers, ②他们不得不更加努力学习.
As for the students themselves, they want to get good results so that they can go further for their studies. ③They don’t have to put all their effort into studying and give up all the sports and hobbies. In fact, education cannot go without physical exercise, because a quick mind hardly goes along a week body.
All the students should remember: If you don’t have a strong body, you can never achieve anything, let alone a great success in your life.

阅读短文,并按要求完成下列句子。
We know that many animals do not stay in one place.Birds,fish and other animals move from one place to another place at a certain time.They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more easily,but others move to get away from places that are too crowded.
When cold weather comes,many birds move to warmer places to find food.Some fishes give birth in warm water and move to cold water to feed.The most famous migration is probably the migration of fish,which is called “salmon”(鲑鱼).This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to salt water.There it spends its life.When it is old,it returns to its birthplace in fresh water.Then it gives birth and dies.In northern Europe,there is a kind of mouse.They leave their mountain homes when they become too crowded.They move down to the low land.Sometimes they move all the way to the seaside,and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea.
Recently,scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster(龙虾).Every year,when the season of the bad weather arrives,the lobsters get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the ocean.Nobody knows why they do this,and nobody knows where they go.So,sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another place,but at other times we don’t.Maybe living things just like to travel.
小题1:The reason for most of the animals to move is __________________.
小题2:Find the word in the passage which means “ the movement from one place to another of a large group of animals” and write it down here: __________________.
小题3:The underlined word “There” in the second paragraph refers to (指的是) ____________.
