This kind of music comes from reggae, disco and funk music . Rapping means speaking to the rhythm of the music, and it is an important part of the music . People rap to express how they feel about their lives and problems.

    Rapping in class.

    Would you like to rap in class? Well actually, hip pop music is played in more than 10,000 schools in the USA .Why ? There is a new school program called “Flocabulary ”in which teachers use texts and hip hop CDs to help teach different school subjects . The words of the songs are just what students are studying . This makes learning easy and fun . Students and teachers are excited about the positive results it has had on exam marks. One teacher said, “ I’ve used hip hop songs in class, and I have never seen my students so crazy about history ! You can't imagine how well they imagine how well they remember what I teach ! We even try to write our own songs . ”

    Whose idea was Flocabulary?

    Blake Harrison, a high school student, was the first person to come up with the idea of Flocabulary . The word “ Flocabulary ” comes from the word “ flow ” and “ vocabulary ” . “ Flow ” is a rap word for “ style ”,or the way a rapper says the words of a song . “ Vocabulary ” means the words you have to learn in a language . How did he get the idea ? Well, he realized he could remember the words of a hip hop song very easily . So, why not make lessons into songs? Today together with Alex Rappaport, a song writer, Blake produces hip hop songs for maths, science and literature (文学 ）. They are now used in schools with great success.

    Five meteorologists (气象学家) who were trapped for two weeks after polar bears surrounded their weather station are now able to leave after the creatures were chased away. Their supervisor told NBC News early Wednesday.

    Russian officials had feared the siege could last for another month, the time it would take to reach the islands in the Kara Sea, high in the Arctic Circle. But on Tuesday night a research ship took a detour (绕道) to assist those weathermen, station supervisor Vasily Shevchenko told NBC News. The ship run by Russia’s state-run oil firm Rosneft frightened away the bears using its helicopter, before resupplying the weather station with more food and puppies (幼犬). The puppies are not yet big enough to deter the bears, but the station is planning to draft in a replacement adult guard dog as soon as possible.

    Some of the bears had taken to sleeping directly outside the windows of remote outpost. There was no risk of the researchers starving because they had a year’s worth of food, but they were forced to take dangerous trips to a nearby building, holding a gun for protection, according to Shevchenko.

    Polar bears are an endangered species. In Russia, it’s a crime to shoot them unless in self-defense. The bears usually leave the islands in the summer, but this time they were trapped by the melting ice, an apparent sign of climate change, according to Shevchenko. “They’ve stayed on the island because there is nowhere for them to go,” he said.

    The animals suffer from global warming because it shrinks the floating ice that forms their main hunting ground. According to the environmental group the World Wide Fund for Nature, known as the WWF, this has got some polar bears to go near human habitats in search of food.

    1.What did the research ship do to help the five meteorologists?

    A. Drive them home.

    B. Shoot all the bears.

    C. Use its helicopter to scare the bears away.

    D. Supply the weather station with more money.

    2.The underlined Word “deter” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to “______”.

    A. stop B. respect

    C. protect D. raise

    3.What made the bears trapped on the island according to the text?

    A. Sea Pollution. B. Climate change.

    C. Humans’ hunting. D. Animals’ hunting

    4.What can we infer from the text?

    A. People in Russia can hunt bear for money.

    B. The melting ice will kill all the polar bears.

    C. The five meteorologists hated the bears very much.

    D. WWF made some contributions to protecting polar bears.

    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

    If anyone had told me three years ago that I would be spending most of my weekends camping. I would have laughed heartily. Campers, in my eyes, were people who enjoyed insect bites, ill-cooked meals, and uncomfortable sleeping bags. They had nothing in common with me. 1..

    The friends who introduced me to camping thought that it meant to be a pioneer. 2. We sleep in a tent, cooked over an open fire, and walked a long distance to take the shower and use the bathroom. This brief visit with Mother Nature cost me two days off from work, recovering from a bad case of sunburn and the doctor’s bill for my son’s food poisoning.

    I was, nevertheless, talked into going on another fun-filled holiday in the wilderness. 3. Instead, we had a pop-up camper with comfortable beds and an air conditioner. My nature-loving friends had remembered to bring all the necessities of life.

    4. We have done a lot of it since. Recently, we bought a twenty-eight-foot travel trailer complete with a bathroom and a built-in TV set. There is a separate bedroom, a modern kitchen with a refrigerator. The trailer even has matching carpet and curtains.

    5. It must be true that sooner or later, everyone finds his or her way back to nature. I recommend that you find your way in style.

    A．This time there was no tent.

    B．Things are going to be improved.

    C．The trip they took me on was a rough one.

    D．I was to learn a lot about camping since then, however.

    E．I must say that I have certainly come to enjoy camping.

    F. After the trip, my family became quite interested in camping.

    G. There was no shade as the trees were no more than 3 feet tall.

    The latest target for TV advertisers is children in Asia. Asian families are getting smaller and wealthier, and Asian children are watching more and more TV. It is said that the average Hong Kong child sees about 25,000 TV advertisements a year.

    To get the attention (and the money) of these young audiences, the advertisers use little actors. “The kids share the same feelings with someone from their own age group,” says one advertiser, “so this kind of advertisement is more effective. And, of course, the little actors earn big money.”

    Not everyone is happy to see kids turned into buyers. “Advertising to children is wrong,” said Pasty Liang, “because its aim is to make them ask their parents for money to buy things. Also, many things advertised, such as toys, are silly and encourage violence. If a child buys them, he or she will learn nothing.” Some educators believe that if young people watch the ads, they will become more and more materialistic.

    Some people even think it wrong to use little actors in TV advertisements. “It is illegal for kids to work in factories, so why are they allowed to work in ads? Also, considering the high salaries, it is bad for children to have too much money.” said Elvis Hu.

    As an advertiser, J W Lu clearly has his own opinion about this. “It is nothing wrong with children earning a lot of money or asking their parents to buy things for them. Besides, kids buy toy to have fun, not to learn from.”

    Anyway, governments are beginning to take action to protect children. An ad would not be allowed to appear on TV if it made children feel inferior (低人一等的) because they didn’t own the advertised product.

    1.The advertisers use little actors so that ________.

    A. the ads can attract young audiences

    B. the little actors can earn big money

    C. the kids will share the same feelings

    D. people will see more TV advertisements

    2.What does the underlined word “illegal” mean?

    A. Not liked by the children.

    B. Not allowed by the law.

    C. Not accepted by the public.

    D. Not agreed to by the parents.

    3.Who thinks it all right for kids to earn money by acting in ads?

    A. Elvis Hu. B. J W Lu.

    C. Pasty Liang. D. Some educators.

    4.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

    A. Little actors earn less money than adults.

    B. Advertisers want children to learn from toys.

    C. Some people are not for advertising to children.

    D. Governments are taking action to protect advertisers.

    5.What is the best title for the passage?

    A. Little Actors or Adult Actors

    B. How to Get Children’s Attention

    C. Opinions about TV Advertisements

    D. Children: New Target for TV Advertisements
