It was my first day of sixth grade. I looked at my schedule and saw that I had Mrs. Foxwell's classes and this made me happy. Over the next three years, Mrs. Foxwell taught me many important things that I will never forget. Of all of the teachers and coaches I have had in my life, Mrs. Foxwell has been my favorite leader.
Mrs. Foxwell is one of the most respected people I know. She is always kind to everyone and she treats others the way that she wants to be treated. She taught me respect in many different ways, but mainly how to be respectful in the business world. She told me that I needed to have a firm handshake and that I should always look people in the eye when I talked to them. Mrs. Foxwell also taught me that I could earn someone's respect by working hard to achieve my goals.
In addition to working at Brandywine Springs School, Mrs. Foxwell once worked at a bank as a manager but she gave that up to teach kids how to be successful. Mrs. Foxwell told our class that she would cry because of the amount of work she had to do in very little time. She told our class that working all night at something we don't love is very stressful, so we should try and do something we love. In the end, she taught me that I have to keep my head high and pull through difficulties. I don't think I have ever worked as hard in any class as I did in her class. I created my own 28-page business plan to share with her, my parents, other teachers and my classmates. Although creating a business from nothing was a lot of hard work, I really enjoyed it and learned several lessons that will help me throughout life.
I have had a lot of role models in my life, but one of the greatest ones is Eva Foxwell. She taught me leadership qualities, how to be respectful and why I should work hard. She changes my life for the better and I desire to be like her.

Robots are smart. With their computer brains, they help people work in dangerous places or do difficult jobs. Some robots do regular jobs. Bobby, the mail carrier, brings mails to a large office building in Washington D．C．He is one of 250 mail carriers in the United States.
Mr. Leachim, who weighs two hundred pounds and is six feet tall, has some advantages as a teacher. One is that he does not forget details. He knows each child’s name, the parents’ names and what each child knows and needs to know. In addition, he knows each child’s pets and hobbies. Mr. Leachim does not make mistakes. Each child goes and tells him his or her name, then dials an identification number. His computer brain puts each child’s voice and number together. He identifies the children with no mistakes. Then he starts the lesson.
Another advantage is that Mr. Leachim is flexible. If the children need more time to do their lessons they can move switches. In this way they can repeat Mr. Leachim’s lesson over and over again.

As the world starts to become increasingly aware of the dirty carbon footprint left behind by airplane travel, could it be time to bring back to the air ship Hybrid Air vehicle, a UK-based company, has recently displayed a new concept design of their around 100-passenger air-ships that hopes to revolutionize city tripping, all while reducing carbon emissions (排放). The images of the flashy inside parts are just an ambitious plan for the moment, but the company argued the air ship would be well-suited to city-to-city trips.
A journey by air ship would take slightly longer than one by airplane. For example, a flight from Liverpool to Belfast across the Irish Sea is approximately 4 hours and 24 minutes, check-in and security time included, while the air ship will take 5 hours and 20 minutes in theory. However, the payoff comes in the amount of carbon dioxide released—67.75 kilograms (149.36 pounds) of carbon emissions per passenger by plane, compared to 4.75 kilograms (10,47 pounds) per passenger by air ship.
The company claims their standard Airlander 10 model can now complete journeys with a total of a 75 percent reduction in emissions compared to conventional aircrafts. They eventually hope to introduce a hybrid-electric (混合电能的) model by 2025, which would reduce emissions by 90 percent, then a totally electric model by 2030 that would be a zero emissions aircraft.
In a bid to attract air travel enthusiasts, the company also hopes to make the experience more pleasurable than the typical journey of sticky seats and minimal leg room. “For many decades flying from A to B has meant sitting in a metal tube with tiny windows—a necessity but not always a pleasure. On Airlander, the whole experience is pleasant, even enjoyable,” George Land, Commercial Business Development Director at Hybrid Air vehicle, said in a recent statement.
32．What is the new air ship designed for
A．Trips with fewer passengers. B．Reducing the use of carbon.
C．Traveling specially between cities. D．The lowest cost of trips for passengers.
33．Why does the author list the figures in paragraph 2
A．To highlight the speed of the airplane.
B．To stress the disadvantages of the new airship.
C．To indicate the potential market of the new airship
D．To present the positive effect of the new air ship on the environment.
34．What is the plan of the company for the new air ship
A．Producing a fully electric model by 2030.
B．Producing a hybrid-electric model by 2030.
C．Completing the standard Airlander 10 model by 2025.
D．Putting the standard Airlander la model into service by 2025.
35．What does George Land think of the traditional airplane
A．It's much safe. B．Its space is too narrow,
C．Its seats are too hard. D．Its atmosphere is more pleasant.

To call on more students to read books in their spare time, an activity of parent-child reading was organized on September 25th in our school library. Students of Grade 2 and their parents participated in it.
During the activity, the students and their parents were asked to choose one book which they read together. After that, they shared their feelings or opinions about it. Many parents said this offered a better opportunity for them to get to know each other. Finally, every family recommended to others three great books.
The activity was really a great success. Not only did it arouse more students’ interest in reading, but it made more parents realize the significance of reading with their children.

W: Television is the most significant influence on children in the United States, because the habit of watching television usually begins before children go to school. And, by the time that the average child finishes high school, he or she will have spent 18, 000 hours in front of a television set as opposed to 12, 000 hours in a classroom.
Parents are concerned about these figures and the lack of quality in television programs for children. They are worried the violence in many of these shows may have a negative effect on the young minds. Many parents would like to see fewer commercials during programs for children. Educational television has no commercials and has programs for children that many parents are favor of. The most famous of these is “Sesame street (芝麻街(幼儿教育电视节目))”, which tries to give preschool children a head start (获得领先优势) in learning the alphabet and numbers. It also tries to teach children useful things about the world in which they live.
Even though most parents and educators give “Sesame Street” and shows like it high marks for quality, some argue that all television, whether educational or not, is harmful to children. They say that the habit of watching hours of television a day turns children into bored and passive consumers of their world rather than encouraging them to become active explorers of it.
