5．　　One Monday morning, the students were talking about their homework in the classroom. Last weekend, their homework was to sell something. They would use the money they made to buy school things for the children in poor areas. Now it was time for them to show how successful they were.
　　Liu Ling was the first one to speak. "I made some cakes and sold them. I made 40 yuan, "she said happily. "My friendly words and smiles helped me. At the same time, the cakes were really delicious. ""Good, " said the teacher.
　　Yang Mei said, "I sold newspapers. I made 55 yuan and I told everyone that newspapers can tell us what is happening around the world. ""Very good, Yang Mei, " said the teacher.
　　Li Hang said, "I sold my toys and I made 62 yuan. I told everyone they were much cheaper than new toys. ""Great!" said the teacher.

　　"1, 242 yuan," he said.
　　"1, 242 yuan!" said the teacher. "What did you sell?" "Toothbrushes, " said Zhou Yi.

6．　　Have you ever imagined your simple T﹣shirt could act as an air conditioner(空调)on those hot summer days?Thanks to a discovery, that possibility is getting closer and the T﹣shirt may soon be found among your favorite clothing brands.
　　Two inventors took a completely new method. They designed a special textile(纺织品)that can take in body heat and then send out the energy. This new textile cools both the objects and things around them through a technology. This means that a T﹣shirt made of this textile looks like a normal T﹣shirt, but actually it is a device(设备)that works like a mirror.
　　Although the technology is not new and has been used for years to design plastic films and special paints, its use in the textile industry for the good of wearers is very special and exciting. That is because, in the past, the methods we used to deal with heat through clothes were only the suggestions on wearing light colors and choosing breathable textiles. But even when these suggestions can actually help you feel cool, they are simply not enough in the hottest season. The new textile, however, can reflect all kinds of light, and this can contribute to the cooling process. So this discovery is a real advance.
　　Right now, researchers still need to test the new method to know how effectively(有效)the new textile works while the wearers are standing or walking, and not directly facing the sky. They also need to test how well it works when T﹣shirts are not close to the skin. But it's still a great success.
　　The two inventors are now looking out for clothing brands that are interested in using their textile. One inventor said, "The new material will increase clothing producing costs by just 10 percent. We can make it with large production. Everybody can afford a T﹣shirt made of this textile and the cost is basically the same as a normal T﹣shirt's. It can do good to everybody. "
