12．　　Tenzing Norgay was a Sherpa (夏尔巴人). From his village, he could see a tall mountain. He dreamed of (1)       to the very top.
　　"I could see the whole world from the (2)       ," he said to his mother.
　　"The mountain is called Chomolungma," she told him. "It is so (3)       that even the birds cannot fly over."
　　"But maybe I could climb it one day," Tenzing thought.
　　One day a group of men from America came.
　　"We want to climb Mount Chomolungma. We want Sherpas to help us," they said.
　　"I' ll go with you," said Tenzing.
　　"You are too (4)       to take care of yourself," Tening's mother stopped him. "Again and again, men have tried to reach the top of Chomolungma. Many of them (5)       in the snow and never came back."
　　TEN YEARS passed! Another group from (6)       came. Tenzing said to his mother, "I know I can climb the mountain now."
　　"You are mad," said his mother, "I won't let you go!" This time Tenzing followed his heart and ran away from home. He cut his long hair and arrived at the climbers' camp.
　　"You look strong," the climbers said. "Please show us the way to the mountain and be our (7)      ."

13．A Juice Carton's Diary
January 16
　　I'm siting on a shelf in a big store! I am an orange juice carton (硬纸盒)! I'm made of hard paper. This morning, something great happened. A little girl looked at my shelf for a long time, and then she chose me! She's taking me to a picnic by the lake, so I hope she'll drink me.
January 17
　　I'm in a lake. The little girl drank the juice, but left me in front of the lake. The wind blew me into the water. I don't like it here.
January 18
　　I saw a man taking rubbish out of the lake with a net. He saw my bright orange colour, and he saved me. He caught me and a plastic (塑料的) bottle in his net. Now, we're in the boat, and we aren't waste anymore. We're happy.
January 19
　　I'm at the recycling factory. I feel a little afraid here because there are large machines that make loud noises. My plastic bottle friend is across from me. I think this is a good place.
January 20
　　I'm sitting on a shelf in a stationery store!
　　Everything here is made of paper. Yes, they recycled me into a notebook. I'm very happy and excited, and I really want to see the recycling factory again. Maybe next I'll be a comic book!

14．　　What time is it? That's a very good question! From morning to night, clocks help us to plan our day. They tell us when things begin and when they end.
　　Before clock, people tell time by watching the sun move across the sky. They started work when the sun came up in the east. At noon, when the sun was very high, they ate and rested. When the sun disappeared in the west, they went to bed.
　　Today, we know that the sun doesn't move around the Earth. As the Earth turns, the sun seems to be moving across the sky. It takes the Earth a day to make one complete turn.
　　A day is divided into hours, minutes and seconds. There are 24 hours in a day. There are 60 minutes in an hour. How many minutes are there in a day? 24*60＝1,440. There are 1,440 minutes in a day.
　　We measure time by other movements, too. The Earth travels around the sun. It takes the Earth a year to go around the sun once. One year is 12 months, or just over 52 weeks. To be very accurate (准确的), it takes the Earth 365 days, 5 hours, 49 minutes and 12 seconds to go around the sun.
　　We divide the Earth into 24 time zones. Each time zone is one hour apart from the next time zone. For example, when it is 10:00 a.m. in Beijing, it is 9:00 p.m. in New York.
　　Because of the clocks and calendars (日历), we can measure time very easily. However, it is the movement of the Earth that really allows us to measure time.

30．　　Last Sunday, my friends and I went on an adventure with the Hiking Club. The night before I was so excited that I could not sleep! I got up really early (1)            (介词) Sunday morning. After breakfast, I packed my lunch and left home (2)            (quick), (3)            (hurry) to school and met the other students and Mr Li, our trip leader. When we were all there, we left for Lucky Island.
　　The boat ride to Lucky Island was really (4)            (excite)! We saw a lot of fish and colourful (5)             (bird). When we got to Lucky Island, we went on a long walk and saw some pretty flowers. After the hike, we (6)            (be) very hungry! We (7)             (sit) on the beach and ate our lunch. After that we played games and took pictures. We really enjoyed (8)            (we). Finally, it was time (9)            (go) home. I cannot wait for my next adventure with Mr. Li (10)             (连词) my friends!
