Passage 1

All living things need air. Living things can’t

live without air. We can live without food or

water for a few days, but we cannot live for more

than a few minutes without air. We take in air.

When we are working or running, we need more

air. We are asleep, we need less air.

Find out the main ideaPassage 2 I like reading short stories because they are easy to read

and I can finish a whole story in a few minutes. My teacher

told us that aside from( 除了 ) our regular( 常规的 )

homework, we should also do some outside reading. thus I

chose to read short stories. It doesn’t take much of my

time. When I read books I can go to places I’ve never been

to and meet persons I’ve never met or will never have a

chance of meeting. I also broaden my mind as it tells me

ways to do things that I would have never thought of

doing. In the end it helps us to know ourselves better.

from plants in some way? Animals eat grass and

grow fat. Then we eat their meat. Little fish eat

little sea-plants; then bigger fish swim along and

eat the smaller fish…Chicken eat bits of grass and

give as chicken. So scientists say, “All food comes

in some way from plants.”
