Mrs Lee had a baby girl. The four Browns’children, who lived next door, wanted to give the baby a present. Their mother said, “ Why not buy a doll? Each of you has some pocket money.” But Jean Brown, aged 12, had a different idea.

“ We have other things to give the baby,” she said, “ We can do something we can

for her. I am good at making things. I’d like to make a doll by myself.”

The others liked her idea. “ I’m the oldest, “ said Peter, who was sixteen. “ I can babysit. I’d like to take care of her for three evenings for free.”

“ I know what I can do!” said Beth, who was eight. “I take good pictures. Mrs Lee has no camera. I’ll take pictures of the baby.”

Seven-year-old Hugh thought and thought, then said, “ Mrs Lee showed me how to make cakes. I’ll make some nice cakes for her. Maybe she won’t have time to do that.

What do people do with their old, out-of-date but still useful computers? Most

people don’t know what to do with them. Many old computers are put away in homes. Many more are simply thrown out with the rubbish.

Finally, some companies are thinking of ways to bring down the number of old computers. Sony has agreed to help recycle old Sony products. Dell, Hewlett-Packard and other companies now also take back some old computers.

In some countries, laws are being passed, too. Computer companies will have to pay for collecting and recycling their used products. And 70% of computer waste must be recycled. The idea behind the laws is that computer companies themselves should pay the cost. That will encourage them to make computers that are easier and cheaper to repair and upgrade（升级）.

Yet while many people are throwing away good computers, others cannot afford them at all. Hundreds of organizations are working to solve this problem. They collect and repair old computers. Some also teach others how to repair computers.

The computers then go to schools, charities and people who need them. Giving a used computer to one of these organizations can turn one person’s rubbish into someone else’s useful things—and cut down on waste, too.

56. What do many people do with old computers?

A. They repair them.

B. They sell them.

C. They send them to others.

D. They stop using them.

57. How many computer companies are mentioned in the second paragraph（段）？

A. One.

B. Two.

C. Three.

D. Four.

A. recycle most of their products

B. collect all their used products

Venice is the “Queen”of Adriatic Sea(亚得里亚海). Every year thousands of people from all over the world travel to Italy to visit the city. Do you know why they like to go there for a visit?

Venice is a very beautiful city. It is quite different from other cities in the world. There aren’t any roads and streets in the city, so there aren’t cars and buses.

We each have a memory. That's why we can remember things after a long time. Some people have a very good memory and they can easily learn many things by heart, but some people can only remember things when they say or do them again and again.

A good memory helps one learn a language well. Everybody learns his own language when he is a small child. He hears the sounds, remembers them and then he learns to speak. Some children are living with their parents in foreign countries. They can learn two languages easily because they hear, remember and speak the two languages every day. In school it is not easy to learn a foreign language because the students have little time for it and they have to learn other subjects, too.

Our memory can get better and better if we do more and more exercises. Do you want to learn a foreign language well? If so, you must do a lot of listening and speaking.
