Even so, accidents can happen everywhere. That's why we hardly see blind people on the street. ” Peng decided to write a book to create a better life for blind people in China.
Peng did a lot to write the book. For example, he interviewed many blind people to collect information. He also studied textbooks from different schools for the blind.

With a smile, Peng told how he solved it. “I visited three local investors (投资者), dressed up in a suit and tie. I was lucky. The investors were positive. They promised to support me. They were also glad that they could do something to help the disabled people. ”

Classic books never go out of fashion. The Outsiders first came out in 1967. But even though the book is old, it is still worth reading. It is written by the US writer S. E. Hinton.
The book tells the story of a 14 year old boy called Ponyboy Curtis. He struggles with right and wrong in a society where he believes he is an outsider. The story took place in Oklahoma, the US, in 1965.
In the book, the children are divided into two groups. One includes Curtis and Greasers, which is mostly made up of poor kids. They have longer hair and often smoke at a young age. The other group is called the Socs, which is made up of rich children. They wear expensive clothes and drive high-tech cars. Those two groups do not get along well.
I was touched by the friendship among the boys. When any of them had a problem, the others would help. Although they are not well educated(教育), they are kind and brave. For example, when Johnny was hurt and in hospital, his friends visited him almost every day. They brought him food and told him interesting stories. I always dreamed of having kind and strong friendships like this.
This book shows the beautiful personalities(人格) of those ordinary people. I advise that teenagers read this book and I hope they can enjoy it.
63. What does the writer mean by saying “Classic books never go out of fashion”?
A. Books for classroom reading are popular.
B. Good books are worth reading all the time.
C. Students should read some fashionable books.
D. Good books will lose their value.

A. their families' wealth B. their books
C. their studies D. their schools

Imagine you choose to join World Book Day Book Club. Now you are reading a book on art for children.
About art
Art is a vast subject, including all kinds of pictures and sculptures. This book introduces 32 works by some of the world's most famous artists. This is only a small selection, but it reveals(揭 示)huge differences in what artists do.
Why do they make art
Artists make art for many reasons. Sometimes, they just want to create something beautiful. But hundreds of years ago—when many people couldn't read—paintings were often designed to illustrate stories.
Very grand paintings were usually made to order, for wealthy clients who wanted to impress people. More recently, artists have begun to paint to express their own feelings or explore ideas.
About this book
The pictures reproduced in this book were painted over the last 500 years. They are arranged (排列)in order of the date, so you can see how ideas about art have changed over time. If you would like to see more art, there is lots on the Internet—just follow the links recommended throughout the book. If you can, visit an art gallery too, so you can see the “real thing”.
70. Why are the works introduced in the book

Children today have many things to play with. They can watch television, surf the Internet, or play video games. But what do you think children did for fun long ago They read books.
Some of you might ask, “Are books really fun?” Believe it or not, books provide many things that televisions or computers cannot. Since books use only words to tell a story, they can improve your imagination. You can picture the characters and the background in your head and you can also imagine how the characters feel.
The words and sentences that are used in storytelling are also very interesting and usually cannot be found often on television or on websites. They are sometimes so beautiful and touching that they can bring tears to your eyes.
Books also help us to think harder and deeper. As we continue to read, we ask questions to ourselves and try to find answers.
These are some of the reasons why books are so fun to read.
Remember: the more you read, the more you grow.

三、M:Hello,everyone. This is Music Radio. I'm your DJ, Steven. The song you just heard is sung by a very famous American country music singer.
During the 1990s, American country music became very popular. Song writers no longer wrote about the modern values of America-money, success or expensive things to buy. Instead, they wrote once more about things that were common for everyone:feeling alone in the modern world, the importance of having good friends and so on.
Country music today is much the same as before. The subject of country music is “the good old days”. In “the good old days”,people thought well of each other. People loved life in the open air. They believed that the best things in life were free: sunshine, laughing, walking in the beauty of the country, friends and music.
四、 Charles Dickens was one of the famous English writers. He was born on February 7th, 1812. He didn't like to take part in noisy and active games. He began to read books when he was a small child. When he was about six, someone took him to a theatre. He saw a play by Shakespeare and liked it so much that he decided to write a play of his own. When he was seven years old, the family moved to London. There were several young children in the family besides Charles. At that time his father was in prison. So he worked hard from early in the morning till late at night to help his family. Charles could go to school again after his father was free. But he didn't finish school at all. He had to go on working hard to make a living. When he was fifteen, he often went to the library of the British Museum. There he spent long hours reading and writing. In this way he received his education in his early life.
