Adopt-a-Highway

Hello. I'm Jan from Mrs. Lake's class. My class wants to work together to help the public. We think we have found a great way to do this. Last month we did a class project on the highways n ear our tow n. We lear ned about the Adopt-a-Highway Program. This program brings people together to pick up litter along the roads. Wethink it would be a great idea for all students in our school to join the program and adopt a highway.

Adopting a highway is not like adopting a pet. When a highway is adopted, only part of the highway is cared for by a group of people. The group agrees to work every week to keep its part of the highway clean. Each group gets its own sig n that has the n ame of the group prin ted on it. The sig n is put up at the side of the road. This sig n lets drivers know who is keep ing that area of the road clea n.

The Adopt-a-Highway Program is a great way for people to help their environment look nicer. Also, the government does not have to send out as many road workers. This saves

mon ey. Fin ally, people may try harder to keep roads clea n if they see people, especially tee nagers like us, clea ning them up.

We will n eed helpers to care for our adopted highway. If you want to feel great and keep our roads clea n, please come with your pare nts to the meet ing n ext week. Wewill meet in Mrs. Lake 's room on Wed nesdayat 6:00 . At the meet ing, we will talk about which roads are the dirtiest as a result of people's unkind acts. Then we ' ll try to pick an area to adopt and clean up.

I look forward to seeing you at the meeting. Remembeto keep our roads clean!

55. What is the Adopt-a-Highway Program about?

57. What should the students do first if they want to join the program?

for.

Like detectives, archaeologists use evidence to solve mysteries. Detectives look for clues to solve crimes. Archaeologists seek clues to help them understand how people lived long ago. In fact, the word "archaeology" means "the study of ancient things." One type of evidence used to learn about the past is pottery. When examining pottery, archaeologists

consider not only its appearance but what it was made of and how it was made. With this knowledge, they can gain interesting information about people 's lives in times past.

Pottery is made by first adding water to a kind of soil called clay. When wet, clay can be formed into shapes. It is then heated, which hardens the clay and allows it to keep its shape. There are various kinds of clay soil. Many types of clay contain iron. Iron gives the heated clay a reddish color. Some ancient potters tried to change this color by adding other materials, such as charcoal and oil to make their pottery black. Others made pot surfaces blue by adding copper.

To makeclay easier to shape and heat potters use something called "temper." Various materials can be used as temper. These materials include sand, crushed stone, and plant fibers. An archaeologist can tell where a pot came from by the types of clay and temper that were used. Sometimesa pot found in one location might contain materials from another place. This can provide clues about how people traded or traveled.

Someof the earliest pots were madequite simply. A lump of clay was hollowed （挖空）out and shaped into a bowl. It was then heated at a low temperature. The finished pot was rough, and often undecorated. This type of pot may have been used for cooking.

Later, coiled pots were made. These were madeby first rolling the clay into a long snake shape. The coil was then wound in circles, around and upward to form a pot. The lines of the coils were smoothed out with pieces of cloth or leather and shaped into many different objects, like pitchers and drinking vessels. They were often decorated in various ways. These pots were heated at high temperatures. The higher the temperature, the harder and longer-lasting the pot. Further improvements in pottery-making developed at different times and places. These included wheels, fancier decorations, and better kilns (窑)．

A pot's shape and decoration can provide clues about the past. Painted pictures might show events from daily life. Archaeologists know certain shapes and styles that were common in different times and places.

Archaeologists study the differences in types of pottery closely. Because of their work, these everyday objects can reveal some of the mysteries of the past.
