Camps Serving Both Boys and Girls
Camps that serve both boys and girls traditionally offer programmes that separate girls and boys while at camp, yet bring them together for some activities or meals.
Cheley Colorado Camp Founded in 1921
The Cheley Colorado Camp serves young people from throughout the U. S. and several other countries. Located in and around the Estes Park Valley and surrounded by breathtaking mountain views and forests, CheleyCamp serves boys and girls, divided by gender(性别) and age group, starting at age nine years old. Campers have the opportunity to experience unforgettable fun activities, mountain biking, river rafting, horseback riding, hiking, and backpacking. Through these activities, campers learn team-building, cooperation and leadership skills and self-confidence. When the day is done, campers have the opportunity to gather around the evening campfire.
Camp Killooleet Founded in 1927
Camp Killooleet serves boys and girls who are 9—14 years of age. Camp Killooleet is located along the edge of the Green Mountain National Forest in Hancock Vermont. The owners say that nearly all the campers return to Camp Killooleet each year until they reach the age limit. Children are housed in small groups of the same gender and experience the beauty of the nearly 300 acres and private lake. In addition to bicycling at the flat campus, children can explore local nature sites, canoeing in the Adirondacks, caving and rock-climbing. Children can also choose a wide variety of sports such as basketball, soccer, horseback riding and so on.
Camp Weequahic Founded in 1953
Lying just two hours northwest of NYC and three hours north of Philadelphia, campers should be from 7 to 13 years old. Parents and children may choose the three-week sleep-away option or can opt for the “Super Six” week camping experience. Whichever option your family chooses, Camp Weequahic features continuous fun and learning experiences for your children.

For the last 8 years, about 200 residents of Strunino, a small town in Russia’s Vladimir Oblast region have not had to worry about buying bread, thanks to the generosity of a local grocery store owner who has been giving it away for free.
Mamoud Shavershyan came to Russia, from Armenia, 25 years ago. He worked as an engineer, before setting up his own business. But everything changed one day, 8 years ago when sitting behind the counter, Mamoud saw an old lady counting dozens of coins to pay for a couple of loaves of bread. He found it embarrassing for the old lady and ended up giving her the bread for free. That day, he made the decision to print coupons(优惠券) that the elderly in Strunino could exchange for white or black bread at his store. To make sure that people knew about his offer he advertised it in a local paper.
But that was only the beginning. Soon, Mamoud continued his generous offer to people with disabilities, large families with low income, and the generally poor.

The kindhearted Armenian says that he just wants those less fortunate than him to have a better life. “Local authorities don’t care about my initiative (计划,措施),” Mamoud says. “They have never acknowledged my work, never offered thanks, but I didn’t do it for that.

Almost everybody knows that sports stars can be role models to high school students. But what many do not know is the effects they may have on our kids. Researchers now have made some important findings. The first effect that professional athletes can have on high schoolers is improving their personal character.
A fine example comes from a study through the Changing-Lives programme in the UK. The authors were able to conclude “athlete mentors(导师) are able to inspire kids,change their attitudes and help improve futures”. The study looked at mentor-pupil relationships in different middle and high schools. The mentors are successful sports people and the pupils are 2,701 students from 222 schools.
The findings were able to support the popular belief that sports stars can act as role models to inspire young people. The mentors visited students three times over the six-month period. During the visits, the mentors and pupils told each other about their own difficult problems that they had to face and deal with. This was a way for the pupils to see that the athletes were once just like them, and they too could solve their difficulties and achieve great things.
Another major effect is that professional athletes as role models can influence young people’s future aspirations (愿望). In a study carried out in the USA, 662 ninth-grade students (who began their first year of high school), were surveyed about their career aspirations. When students have a career aspiration, the researchers found, it may be determined by sources such as who their role models are.
In the study, students from every background were asked about their career goals, and whom they chose as their role models. The results included 41 % of black young men, 25 % of Latino young men, 7% of young black women, 5 % of Latino young white women; all had role models of sport professional athlete.
8、What effects do professional athletes have on high schoolers?
A. Promote their personal character.
B. Change the choices of their careers.
C. Strengthen the relationship with teachers.
D. Push ahead the success of their studies.
9、What does the second paragraph mainly tell us?
A. The skills needed to become a professional athlete.
B. How to build the relationship between mentors and athletes.
C. A study about the influence film stars have on kids.
D. The mentors’ influence on the kids in different ways.
10、What does the underlined word “them” in the third paragraph refer to?
A. Career aspirations. B. The mentors.
C. Difficult problems. D. The pupils.
11、What does the final result of the study indicate in the last two paragraphs?
A. Students mostly choose sports athletes as their models.
B. Students don’t have more ideas about their career goals.
C. Both the young and the old like to become sports athletes.
D. Most black people are popular with students.
Public service advertising is designed to inform the public on issues that are frequently considered to be in the general best interests of the community at large. Typically, it reflects a political viewpoint, philosophical theory, religious concept or humanitarian notion. It is also commonly referred to as a public service announcement (PSA) or a community service announcement (CSA). The ads are usually broadcast on radio or television, but may also appear in newspapers or magazines. They are common in industrialized countries throughout the world.
PSAs are commonly aimed at changing public attitudes by raising awareness about particular issues. Health, conservation and safety themes are prevalent in many PSAs. The public service advertising campaigns are often sponsored(赞助) by trade associations, civic(市政的) organizations, non-profit institutions or religious groups.
Most public service advertising involves joint efforts of the private and public sectors. Non-profit groups and government agencies commonly team up with private mass media, promotion and advertising firms to produce spots for radio, television and print media. Most commonly, the non-profit agency creates the message and an advertising firm develops the campaign, polishes it to meet industry standards and plans its distribution, all free of charge. Television and radio stations usually broadcast these ads at no charge, and magazines and newspapers usually publish them for free as well.
In recent years, it has become commonplace for U.S. television stations to feature public service advertising spots immediately following a broadcast that has focused on an issue considered sensitive and of concern to many members of the general public. These PSA broadcasts generally offer addresses, Web sites and toll-free telephone numbers for information sources. Some of the topics focused on in the PSAs have included child abuse, AIDS and civil rights.
12、What do PSAs mainly intend to do?
A. Sell more products through some special ways.
B. Change consumer’s attitudes through media.
C. Improve people’s ideas about special issues.
D. Make more famous stars known to the people.
13、How does the author like PSAs?

B. He is against the idea of them.
C. He is curious about the idea of them.
D. He thinks they are completely to make money.
14、What does the underlined word “prevalent” mean in the second paragraph?
A. Widespread. B. Special. C. Strange. D. Severe.
15、What can we infer from the text?
A. PSAs have been accepted by all the people in the world.
B. PSAs will make big profits for trade associations.

Just Like Home
    When the recess (课间休息) bell rang, Priya sighed and slowly stood up. At her old school, she spent recess climbing the monkey bars and sharing secrets with her friends. Now she sat in the corner of the field and watched the other kids play without her.
    As she cleared her table, Priya noticed a box of sidewalk chalk sitting on the counter by the window. Then she took her usual place at the end of the recess line.
While she and her classmates filed through the halls and out into the yard, Priya thought about how she and her mother used to draw chalk patterns on the long driveway leading up to their old apartment building. The patterns were called rangoli, and they looked like stars and roses. Priya’s mother said that the drawings were to welcome guests to their home. Priya missed the early mornings she and her mother would spend drawing colourful patterns.
    Priya walked over to the basketball court and sat on the hot pavement(路面).She pulled the box out of her pocket and took out a bright red piece of chalk and began drawing the rangoii patterns she loved best. She drew flowers with huge petals(花辦) and stars with eight points.
    "That’s pretty," a voice said. She turned around and saw that Enrique, a boy in her class, was watching her. "It’s called rangoii," she said. "The do this in India, where my parents are from." "You know what that reminds me of?" he asked, kneeling down beside her. "The floor of my grandmother’s house in Mexico has tiles(瓷砖)that have designs like that."
    "What do you mean?" Priya asked. "Hand me a piece of chalk," Enrique said. "I’ll show you." Enrique sat down on the pavement and began to draw. He used green, orange, and yellow chalk to draw flowers that were more detailed than Priya’s, but still had huge, curvy (弯曲的) petals. Then he drew circles inside circles, and surrounded them with small diamonds. Priya kept drawing too.

33、答案：
Dear Lucas,
Hearing that you have difficulty in learning Chinese, I’m writing to give you some practical advice about it. First, you can listen to some Chinese teachers’ lectures about pronunciation and sentence structures. Second, you’d better learn from your Chinese friends and try to communicate with them. Third, reading some
Chinese classic works is a good choice. Last but not least, pay attention to the spellings of Chinese characters and practise writing a diary every day.
I sincerely hope my suggestions are helpful for you. Meanwhile, try your best to make progress in Chinese as quickly as possible.
Yours,
Li Hua

Except on the rugs, the shapes are bigger, and a rent as curly.” “Show us,” said Enrique, handing her a piece of chalk. Farah took the chalk and began drawing. She drew shapes that were full of straight lines and bold colours. Ms. Lopez, Priya’s teacher, said, “That’s beautiful!” Priya, Enrique and Farah stood up and looked at what they had done. The pavement was covered in bright colours and shapes: triangles, circles, squares and diamonds, all mixed together.
Their classmates began to come over to see what was happening. “It looks like a universe, with lots of planets and stars,” said Lily. “It looks like a coral reef full of tropical fish,” said Jasper. “What do you think it looks like, Priya?” said Enrique. Priya looked at Enrique and Farah. Their knees, elbows, and fingers were covered in red, yellow, green and blue chalk dust. Priya smiled and said, “It looks like home welcoming guests to it.” The whole room was filled with laughter, and children’s creativity was endless.
