A
Lily
Born
is
an
11-year-old
girl
from
Chicago,
America.
When
most
11-year-olds
are
watching
Hunger
Games,
Lily
is
busy
designing(设计)
a
special
cup
to
help
people
with
Parkinson’s
disease(帕金森病).
Lily
is
the
daughter
of
an
inventor,
and
his
grandfather
has
Parkinson’s
disease.
After
Lily
noticed
that
her
grandfather
spilled
his
drinks,
she
decided
to
make
a
special
cup
for
him.
Lily’s
cup
has
three
legs,
so
it’s
harder
to
knock
over
than
the
common
cup.
She
named
it
the
Kangaroo
Cup.
The
design
was
not
a
success
at
first.
The
cup
broke
easily.
However,
with
the
help
of
her
father,
Lily
worked
with
some
older
designers
and
manufacturers(厂商)to
improve
her
design.
Now
Lily’s
grandfather
can
use
the
Kangaroo
Cup.
This
new
Kangaroo
Cup
is
made
from
plastic(塑料),
and
Lily’s
grandfather
can’t
break
it.
The
new
cup
can
stand
up
on
anywhere
,
even
on
the
grass.
It
also
has
many
colours,
so
it’s
the
perfect
cup
for
picnics.
Lily
gives
some
advice
to
boys
and
girls
like
her.
“Don’t
be
afraid
if
you
fail,
because
you’ll
fail
a
lot
before
you
get
it
right,”
she
said.
“Also,
don’t
be
afraid
to
ask
for
help.
Your
parents
and
teachers
ca
n
help
you
with
a
lot
of
things.
Most
of
the
time
they
are
happy
to
help
you
if
it’s
not
anything
really
expensive.”
Why
did
Lily
invent
the
Kangaroo
Cup?
A.
To
make
her
dream
come
true.
B.
To
help
her
grandfather
C.
To
finish
her
homework
D.
To
make
some
money
2.The
underlined
word
“spilled”
probably
means
“______________”.
A.
flew
out
of
a
cup
B.
got
hurt
easily
C.
warmed
something
up
D.
finished
something
quickly

is
NOT
Lily’s
advice?

Don’t
be
afraid
to

for
help

Your
parents
and
teachers
can
help
you
a
lot.

It’s
expensive
to
get
help
from
other
people.
B
Once
a
king
got
two
nice
baby
eagles.
He
loved
them
so
much
and
asked
his
best
eagle
trainers
to
train
them
to
fly.
After
several
months,
the
king
found
that
one
eagle
was
already
able
to
fly
high
in
the
sky,
while
the
other
was
staying
on
a
branch
of
a
tree
quietly.
The
king
called
all
his
eagle
trainers
together
and
ordered
them
to
try
every
way
to
make
the
other
eagle
fly.
But
all
of
them
failed.
Then
he
had
an
idea.
Maybe
someone
living
in
the
wild
could
work
out
the
problem.
Then
he
found
a
farmer
living
in
the
grasslands.
The
king
invited
him
into
his
palace
to
train
it
at
once.
The
next
morning,
when
the
king
walked
in
his
garden,
he
saw
the
other
eagle
flying
above
in
the
sky
freely.
"It
is
unbelievable!"
shouted
the
king.
"How
could
you
make
it
happen?"
The
farmer
replied,
"It's
very
easy.
This
eagle
was
resting
on
a
branch
when
I
came.
I
just
cut
off
the
branch."
It
is
always
the
same
to
people.
We
all
have
"two
flying
wings"
in
our
hearts,
but
we
often
seem
not
to
notice
them
and
stay
at
a
safe
and
comfortable
place.
We
don't
know
we
can
fly
so
high
and
freely
until
the
"branch"
we
are
resting
on
breaks.

Mongolia
is
China's
neighbor.
It's
a
beautiful
country
with
large
grasslands
and
forests.
The
grasslands
have
lots
of
space
for
people
to
ride
horses.
Recently,
70-year-old
US
photographer
(摄影师)
Bonnie
Stewart
went
to
Mongolia.
She
took
photos
of
eagle
hunters
riding
horses
there.
But
these
hunters
don't
actually
hunt
eagles
themselves.
They
use
the
eagles
to
hunt
other
animals,
like
foxes
and
hares.
Once
the
hunter
sees
an
animal,
he
or
she
sends
the
eagle
out.
The
eagle
then
catches
the
animal
with
its
feet
and
holds
onto
it.
This
is
a
tradition
for
hunters
in
Mongolia
according
to
National
Geography.
It
usually
takes
about
five
years
to
train
an
eagle.
The
bird
learns
how
to
follow
the
animals
and
land
on
the
hunter's
arm.
The
hunters
also
sing
and
talk
to
the
birds
so
they
can
remember
the
hunters'
voices.
But
the
hunters
don't
keep
their
eagles
forever.
After
several
years,
they
will
send
their
eagles
back
into
the
wild.

五、任务型阅读
Some
people
have
found
that
they
always
spend
much
more
on
travelling
than
planned.
Here
is
how
it
happens.
1.
Preparing
too
much
before
travelling
Some
people,
especially
females,
like
to
travel
as
if
starting
a
new
life.
Several
weeks
before
the
trip,
they
would
be
busy
shopping
for
new
dresses,
better
sunglasses
and
best-selling
books.
They
would
rather
fill
their
travelling
bags
up
with
all
fashionable
things.
Just
travelling?
Attending
a
fashion
show
more
like
it.
They
care
more
about
their
appearance
than
the
sights
they
see
during
the
trip.
2.
Following
other
travellers
blindly
They
can't
stop
shopping
for
objects
they
would
never
normally
buy
and
would
certainly
never
use.
For
example,
we
can
find
a
group
of
travellers
"getting
ahead"
to
buy
"Christmas"
presents
even
in
summer.
3.
Replacing
things
that
are
forgotten
to
bring
They
don't
remember
to
bring
things
like
trainers,
cool
bags,
toothbrushes
or
beach
towels.
The
towels
sold
near
beaches
are
nearly
the
price
of
gold
leaves.
They
spend
a
lot
on
those
things.
However,
plenty
of
new
towels
are
sleeping
in
their
bathroom
at
home.
Some
people
have
found

more

that

women
will

before
