Almost every family in America or England buys at least one copy of a newspaper each day. Some people buy as many as two or three different papers.

Newspapers supply us with news about events in our hometown, in our country, and in other parts of the world. Today we can read about important things that took place in foreign countries on the same day when they happened, even in countries far away. ________(2) In those times, news was often passed from one person to another and was never entirely true. Newspapers today supply us with more than just what happened in our country or in other countries. __________(3) If we want to find out what films are being shown, or what plays or concerts we can go to, we can look them up in the newspapers.

In many countries people put notices in newspapers if they are trying to get a job, hunting for a house that they can rent, or even looking for a person who is lost.

____________(4) For example, some man-made news does harm to people, especially some famous people. So when we read the news, we should use our head and shouldn’t believe all in the newspapers.

Newspapers are not for the blind, for they have no sounds. _________(5)

British children are complaining about back pain because their schoolbags are becoming bigger and heavier. According to a recent investigation made by the charity BackCare, 80% of British children carry too much weight in their bags, and in the most harmful way, on one shoulder. Some 12-and-13-year-olds are carrying up to 60% of their body weight on days when they have sports or musical instruments to have to carry to school. The investigation suggests that by 14 about half of pupils would be suffering from back pain.

BackCare recommends that they should carry no more than a fifth of their body weight, and warns that those carrying a third or more run a risk of injury. The smaller the child is, the bigger the problem will be.

“There is little hope in us trying to protect adults’ backs if our children are not protected,” says one of the men from BackCare.

阅读文章 Every morning my father buys a newspaper on his way to work. Every evening my mother looks through (浏览)magazines at home. And every night, I look at the posters (海报) with photos of David Beckham and Yao Ming on my bedroom wall before I go to sleep. Can we imagine life without paper or printing? About 2, 000 years ago, paper was invented in China. Then people learned to write words on paper to make a book. But in those days, they could only write books by hand. So, books were expensive and rare (珍贵的)at that time. And because there weren't many books, few people learned to read. Then printing was invented in China and it developed greatly at the beginning of the 11th century. Then people could print books quickly and cheaply (便宜地). As a result, more people learned to read. After that, knowledge and ideas spread quickly. Today with the help of the Internet we can connect and share information quickly. We can also read newspapers and magazines online. But will the computer replace (替代) books one day? No, I don't think the poster of Yao Ming on my bedroom wall will ever be replaced by a computer of two metres

初中英语拓展阅读(2) A Red is used in many American expressions. It can be used to show happiness, as in the expression “a red-letter day”. This is a day when something special happens. The expressi on is probably based on church customs. For almost 600 years, church calendars have been marked with red to show special holy days. Today’s calendars are still marked that way with the dates of holidays and special days printed in red. The expressio n “a red-letter day” is often heard in everyday life. “A red-letter day” is a day that people are especially happy. It may be a day that you have long waited for, a wedding day, for example. Or it may be a day with a happy surprise. You might tell a friend that yesterday was a red-letter day, because you won some money in the lottery. “Rolling out the red carpet” is another commonly heard expression. It describes an especially warm welcome of any kind. A city may “roll out the red carpet” for its baseball t eam, when the team arrives home after winning a championship. A group of supporters go to the airport to greet the team. The red-carpet welcome includes a lot of cheering by thousands of fans, a parade, music and speeches of praise by local politicians. Red is also used in some expressions that are not happy. “Red-handed” is one. To be caught “red-handed” is to be found in an act of wrong doing. The evidence is clear. You are guilty. Today we use the expression to be caught “red-handed” in situation s that are not serious. For example, a mother might say she caught her son red-handed, taking cookies out of the cookie jar. Choose the best answer for each question. ( )1. The expression “a red-letter day” perhaps first came from _______. A. English customs B. church calendars C. weekdays D. a dictionary ( )2.

Unit 3 Listening Last summer I visited Lake Baikal in Siberia. I took a boat out to Olkhon Island. I camped on the island for two days. I walked all around the island and I swam in the lake. The water was cold! There were quite a lot of people visiting the island. I was surprised because I thought that it was a quiet, isolated place. Unit 4 Listening Sally and I had a great time at Etosha National Park. We travelled there in a small group of six people. We had a guide called Joe. He was fantastic. He knew exactly where to take us to see the amazing wildlife. We saw lions, zebra, elephants and rhinos. We stayed in the park for three nights. I loved it! Unit 5 Listening When I was a young child, I saw a picture of the moai of Rapa Nui. The picture was in a school book. I thought the moai were amazing. I had never seen anything like them before.
