One day Kavya and I were playing with the racket and ball and the ball went
into a Takku’s house.
Though we were scared, we went to his house and asked him if he could give us
our ball.
He said “No”. We felt helpless.
Suddenly, I had an idea. There was a water tank behind the Takku’s house.
I looked at it and told Kavya, “Kavya, look at this. We can climb the water
tank and jump over the gate.”
Kavya agreed, but we were both wearing skirts. We couldn’t climb with that.
“It doesn’t matter, we can see tomorrow. Don’t forget to wear pants,” said
Kavya.
“Bye,” I said and went back home.
The next day I went to Kavya’s house early. We were both wearing pants.
“Best of luck,” said Kavya’s brother Vijay. He knew everything.
He said, “Shout loudly if you need me.”
We went to the water tank. “Who will climb first?” asked Kavya.
“You,” I said.

under a bed for the ball when we heard a noise.
It was Vijay. “Mother is calling you,” he whispered.
We hurried and took out the lost ball. But along with the ball was a ... gold
bar! We quickly took both the ball and the gold bar and climbed up the water tank
again. When we reached Kavya’s house, the TV was on. It was News time.
I couldn’t believe my ears when it said that 20 gold bars were stolen from
a gold shop.
They showed a picture of the gold bars and it was exactly like the one we had
found. We all knew it because there was a look of surprise on everyone’s face.
We quickly told the story to Kavya’s mother and she called the police.

Bike to Work Day
Bike-to-Work Day is held every year across North America on the third Friday
of May. It was started by the League of American Bicyclists in 1956. Its aim is
to promote (促进) the bicycle as a serious choice of getting to and from work.
In today’s world where global warming is a serious issue, the bicycle is a perfect
way of reducing our carbon (碳) footprint.
Cycling to work is a healthy alternative (选择) to driving or taking public
transport. A healthier society means there is not so much pressure (压力) on the
country’s health system. Of course, it depends on how far you live from your
place of work. ________ Another benefit of cycling is feeling more creative and
full of energy once you get to work, which will improve your performance.
Bicycles are the most common form of transport in the world. There are about
one billion worldwide. This makes it the most popular invention ever. When we
think of some countries, like China, we imagine hundreds of people cycling
everywhere. Even in high-tech Japan, it is impossible not to see businessmen,
farmers, mothers or workers in the streets on their bikes.
Bicycles were invented in the 19th century and haven’t changed much since.
Bicycles now have gears, better brakes and suspension, but the shape is the same
as before. We use bicycles today for recreation, fitness, policing, Olympic
competition, mail delivery and lots more. Without the bicycle, much of the world
might stop working!
17. The “may” in ________ has the same meaning as the underlined one in the first
paragraph.
A. Welcome, sir. May I help you?
B. May 1st is a Labor Day Holiday worldwide.
C. May this year be a happy and healthy one for you and your families!

B. After all, bike to work is much healthier.
C. Cycling makes you full of energy.
19.Why does the author mention China?
A. People in Japan also like bicycles.

C. To show the bicycle is the most common form of transport.
20. What can we know from the last paragraph?

B. We can’t work without bicycles.
C. Bicycles have changed a lot since invented.

1. Honesty is the best policy. Have you ever heard about the saying, perhaps
the most popular in English language? It was perhaps the favorite motto of
America’s first president. The wisdom is at least 2, 500 years old. It first
appeared as the moral of Aesop’s fable, a story about two woodcutters — one honest,
the other dishonest. The fable was a favorite with both Greek and Roman children.
Any child can easily grasp its timeless moral. Here is the story.
One day a poor man was cutting a big piece of wood near a river. Suddenly
his old axe fell into the water. 2.唯一的斧头丢了,他很忧伤。Then all at once
a beautiful fairy came out and asked the man what was the matter.
“I have lost my axe,” he said, “3.我砍柴时弄掉到水里了。”
The fairy showed him a gold axe and asked, “Is this yours?”
“No,” said the man.
