Barrie adopted (领养) him after his brothers and sisters stayed away from him at birth. Barrie, a duck breeder, realized the litt

11、le duck needed special attention. So he began taking Star with him everywhere he went. “I would put him in my pocket while I did my shopping,” said Barrie. Now, at five months, Star is too big for Barries pocket, but the two are still inseparable. They watch sports together and even share a drink to

12、gether. Barrie said, “He is one fantastic duck.

18、Aveyron (France)Its in the grounds of a medieval house. Theres a swimming pool, a river and a pizza restaurant. The scenery (景色) around the park is beautiful and great for walking. A weeks stay will cost you about 280.For more information please go to www.eurocamp.co.uk.Four Seasons Tented Camp, Gol

19、den Triangle (Thailand)This must be one of the best campsites ( 野营地) in the world. Instead of tents, there are “canvas cabins (帆布船舱)”. And theres a gourmet restaurant, a spa and a pool. There are only 15 of cabins to rent so youll have to book early. The campsite can only be reached by river boat, b

20、ut once there you can learn to ride an elephant. Unfortunately, it isnt cheap, and two nights at the Four Seasons will cost you about 1,500!

25、rd of the expression “A leopard cant change its spots.” This, of course, is true of leopards. But isnt it true of people? Can people change themselves? Are we humans just creatures of habits? Do we not have any control over our actions and habits? One guy said, “Bad habits are like a comfortable bed

26、. Theyre easy to get into, but hard to get out of.” Someone else said, “The chains of habits are too small to feel until theyre too strong to break.” So breaking the mould of our bad habits takes effort.Habits are like the roads we take through our life every day. The problem is that not every road

27、takes us where we need to go. Actually, our routes through life often become our ruts (惯例) in life. We end up stuck in them and find it hard to dig ourselves out. Thats why we must change our bad habits as soon as possible before they become our second nature. You see, our habits become our characte

28、r and our character becomes our life. As one wise person said, “First we make our habits, and then our habits make us.”But we humans dont like to change. So we come up with excuses, like “I cant be different; thats just the way I am.” And the good excuse is “You cant teach an old dog new tricks.” Bu

But yet, it has a big job to do. Recently, researchers in Switzerland said they planned to build this new cleani

32、ng machine.CleanSpace One will not be for use in homes or businesses. It will be shot into space to help remove thousands of pieces of space junk floating around up there.Last year, we reported on the problem of space junk. Over time, many unused spacecraft have hit each other far above the Earth. B

33、ig pieces break into thousands of small pieces. Sometimes they fall back into the atmosphere (大气层) and burn up. But when they do not, it creates big problems.Scientists fear that if something is not done to remove these objects, it may soon become too dangerous to send people and machines into space

34、. There is a large chance that they might hit some of this junk. So that is why the Swiss researchers are developing the new machine.CleanSpace One is not really a vacuum cleaner. It will not be used to take away space junk. But scientists plan to move it close to an old satellite that is no longer

35、being used. Then a claw-like instrument will catch the satellite, and force it back through the atmosphere. There, the satellite will be destroyed by the heat of friction (摩擦) with the air.Researchers say that all they need to do is slow down the speed of some of these unwanted objects. Once they be

36、gin to move more slowly, they will fall back to the Earth. There is little chance that they will fall through the atmosphere and harm the people or things below.32. Space junk is created when .

64、 teens getting fatter and fatter?In my opinion, there are two remarkable reasons for this problem. Firstly, because of the popularity of TV and computers, and students are burdened with so much homework to do. They are getting less exercise than before. Secondly, because peoples quality of life has

65、gotten better and better, families can afford to buy many foods, such as meat, chocolate and other sweet or oily snacks, which might make the kids overweight.In order to lose weight and stay healthy, teens should avoid spending too much time in front of the TV or the computer and do more exercise. As the saying goes, an apple a day keeps the doctor away. They should also eat a more balanced diet such as fruits, vegetables, less fast food and junk food. Last but not least, they should make a proper time schedule so that they can balance their exercise and studies.10
