Read the article carefully and try to get its main idea with the help of the Key Words and topic sentences.Example 1. Trouble with the Hubble
The Hubble telescope was launched into space by NASA on April 20,1990 at a cost of over a billion dollars.Right from the start there was trouble with the Hubble. The picture it sent us were very disappointing because its main mirror was faulty!NASA is now going to put the telescope right, so it will soon be sending up four astronauts to repair it. The shuttle Endeavour will be taking the astronauts to the Hubble. A robot-arm from the Endeavour will grab the telescope and hold it while the astronauts make the necessary repairs. Of course the Hubble is above the earth’s atmosphere, so it will soon be sending us the clearest pictures of the stars and distant galaxies that we have ever seen. The Hubble will tell us a great deal about the age and size of the universe. By the time you read this, the Hubble’s eagle eye will have sent us thousands and thousands of wonderful pictures.Notes:

How to choose a career
1.At fifteen,students should be told what career to pursue based on their school performance. 2. Most students are confused about what career to choose. 3. They need to be told what to do. 4. When students choose a career themselves, they usually pick one they don’t know much about. 5. When they get a job, they discover they don’t like it, then all their education and training is wasted. 6. If careers were assigned instead of chosen, society would always have the right number of workers. 7. Unemployment would decrease and job satisfaction would be higher. 8. And taxpayers would know that money going to education was being well spent. How to choose a career

Thinking:5 Ws+HwhowhatwhenwherewhyhowIII.Let’s have a try!Read the passage and write a summary
within 30 words In the past two hundred years people have caused many kinds of animals to die out--to become extinct. People keep building houses and factories in fields and woods. As they spread over the land, they destroy animals' homes. If the animals can't find a place to live, they die out. Sixteen kinds of Hawaiian birds have become extinct for this reason. Other animals, such as the Florida Key deer, may soon die out because they are losing their homes. Hunters have caused some animals to become extinct, too. In the last century, hunters killed all the passenger pigeons in North America and most of the buffalos.
Today they are fast killing off hawks and wolves. Pollution is killing many animals today, too. As rivers become polluted, fish are poisoned. Many die. Birds that eat the poisoned fish can't lay strong, healthy eggs. New birds aren’t born. So far, no animals have become extinct because of pollution. But some, such as the bald eagle and the brown pelican, have become rare and may die out.
Scientists think that some animals become extinct because of changes in climate. The places where they live become hotter or cooler, drier or wetter. The food that they eat cannot grow there any more. If the animals can't learn to eat something else, they die. Dinosaurs may have died out for this reason.

2. How often one hears the old wishing they were young again! Childhood is a time when there are few duties to make life hard. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after, and loved whatever they may do. It’s impossible for him to be given so much again in life without having to do anything in return. Besides, life is always giving new things to the child. A child finds pleasure in playing in the rain, or the snow. His first visit to the seaside makes him wild., When the young man starts to make his own living, he becomes free from discipline of school and parents. If he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can see himself making steady progress in his job and life. The old age is always regarded as a sad one. The old are usually in poor health and have nothing exciting to do but wait for the end of their life.2. How often one hears the old wishing they were young again!

People always wish they were young again,as they could completely enjoy freedom and do whatever they wanted to do in that age. (24 words) In our modern society marked by competition,people have to be faced with various kinds of pressure, the pressure from work, from family, from study and even from your heart. And a lot of people are afraid of the pressure. They keep complaining about everything and appear very anxious. However, a certain pressure of pressure is not necessarily bad. Just suppose without pressure how a high school student can pass the entrance o the university? And the fear of losing one’s job keeps a worker working hard. Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that pressure runs the world around. Of course too much pressure is harmful to our life. He who cannot handle the pressure might collapse someday if it is too much to endure. We’ve already heard too many examples of this. Thus the question is that we must learn to relieve ourselves of the burden of work and study and at the same time, let the stimulus continue to drive us to efforts.

How to choose a career
1.At fifteen,students should be told what career to pursue based on their school performance. 2. Most students are confused about what career to choose. 3. They need to be told what to do. 4. When students choose a career themselves, they usually pick one they don’t know much about. 5. When they get a job, they discover they don’t like it, then all their education and training is wasted. 6. If careers were assigned instead of chosen, society would always have the right number of workers. 7. Unemployment would decrease and job satisfaction would be higher. 8. And taxpayers would know that money going to education was being well spent. How to choose a career

within 30 words In the past two hundred years people have caused many kinds of animals to die out--to become extinct. People keep building houses and factories in fields and woods. As they spread over the land, they destroy animals' homes. If the animals can't find a place to live, they die out. Sixteen kinds of Hawaiian birds have become extinct for this reason. Other animals, such as the Florida Key deer, may soon die out because they are losing their homes. Hunters have caused some animals to become extinct, too. In the last century, hunters killed all the passenger pigeons in North America and most of the buffalos.
Today they are fast killing off hawks and wolves. Pollution is killing many animals today, too. As rivers become polluted, fish are poisoned. Many die. Birds that eat the poisoned fish can't lay strong, healthy eggs. New birds aren’t born. So far, no animals have become extinct because of pollution. But some, such as the bald eagle and the brown pelican, have become rare and may die out.
Scientists think that some animals become extinct because of changes in climate. The places where they live become hotter or cooler, drier or wetter. The food that they eat cannot grow there any more. If the animals can't learn to eat something else, they die. Dinosaurs may have died out for this reason.

2. How often one hears the old wishing they were young again! Childhood is a time when there are few duties to make life hard. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after, and loved whatever they may do. It’s impossible for him to be given so much again in life without having to do anything in return. Besides, life is always giving new things to the child. A child finds pleasure in playing in the rain, or the snow. His first visit to the seaside makes him wild., When the young man starts to make his own living, he becomes free from discipline of school and parents. If he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can see himself making steady progress in his job and life. The old age is always regarded as a sad one. The old are usually in poor health and have nothing exciting to do but wait for the end of their life.2. How often one hears the old wishing they were young again!

(24 words) In our modern society marked by competition,people have to be faced with various kinds of pressure, the pressure from work, from family, from study and even from your heart. And a lot of people are afraid of the pressure. They keep complaining about everything and appear very anxious. However, a certain pressure of pressure is not necessarily bad. Just suppose without pressure how a high school student can pass the entrance o the university? And the fear of losing one’s job keeps a worker working hard. Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that pressure runs the world around. Of course too much pressure is harmful to our life. He who cannot handle the pressure might collapse someday if it is too much to endure. We’ve already heard too many examples of this.
