Born on April 4, 1928, Maya Angelou had a hard childhood. Her parents got divorced when she was very young. She was a single mother and being a single mother was very hard on her.

It was finally in 1949 that she started to find her place in the world when she changed her name to show her Calypso dance performances at the night club where she worked. It was there that she won a scholarship and trained in African dance and modern dance. She formed a group and they traveled all over Europe with an opera production. As she traveled, she studied different languages and became excellent in several of them. During this time, she

made her first album, Miss Calypso, and it was a success.

In the 1950s, she moved to New York and started to work more on her writing. She heard Dr Martin Luther King speak in 1960 and began organizing different benefits for Civil Rights. In 1961, she began to play a large role in the Civil Rights Movement and is remembered for her work around the country.

She later moved to Ghana with her son and worked in the University of Ghana's School of Music and Drama. It was there that she became close friends with Malcolm X. She returned to the US in 1964 to help Malcolm X with a new Civil Rights movement. Shortly after she returned to the US, Malcolm X and Dr King were both assassinated (暗杀). To deal with the deaths of her friends, she wrote her first book, I Kno w Why the Caged Bird Sings, which finally made her famous around the world. The 1970s were some of her most productive years as a writer, poet, as well as a singer.

Bonnie Kathleen Blair was born on March 18, 1964.

Although born in Cornwall, New York, she spent her childhood

in Champaign, Illinois.Bonnie started skating when she was only two

years old.

Bonnie Blair had a gift for skating.Poverty, unfortunately, is often a hard taskmaster. Despite her success as a young skater in America, her family lacked the funds to send her to Europe to compete internationally.

But fortune can smile in different ways, and a friend of her father organized a fundraising (筹款) effort in her hometown that allowed her to go abroad and compete on the 1982～1983 World Cup circuit.

The young and confident Blair faced her first challenge when she appeared at her first Olympic Winter Games in Sarajevo 1984.To her great disappointment, she failed to win a single medal.Her first gold and the first glimpse of her genius came at the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, Alberta.To the electrifying (激动人心的) cheers of the audience, Blair set a new record, and picked up her first gold, in the 500-meter race.She finished in style, beating the defending champion by just 0.1 seconds, and also picked up a bronze in the 1,000 meters.This was a tremendous feat for an athlete who had lost four years before.

In 1992, at the Albertville games, she won the 500 meters and 1,000 meters, becoming the first woman to win back-to-back gold medals in the same event.

Blair reached the high point of her career at the Lillehammer games in Norway.She continued her winning streak by picking up the gold in the 500-meter race for the third time in

a row, but her crowning glory came when she won the 1,000 meters with a margin of 1.38 seconds, the best in the history of the Olympic Winter Games! She now had the record for medals in women's events with five golds and one bronze.

She retired at the age of 31, but before doing so she set another record in the American 1,000-meter race.Starting with almost nothing, this woman reached the heights of glory in just 12 years.

A

Orren Fox fell in love with chickens at nine. It was really almost by accident —Orren played in a friend's house whose family had chickens, and he became interested in the animals immediately. Later, he started volunteering every Saturday at a local farm. Within a few months the farm-owner suggested that Orren get a few chicks of his own.

“I don't know what it was, but something caught my interest，”says Orren. Today Orren has 23 chickens, four ducks, and 250,000 bees. His happy chickens lay a lot of healthy eggs, which he sells all the year round. He became a vegetarian (素食者) after he learned about the cruelty and negative (消极的) environmental effects of factory farms. In his diary he writes about raising happy chickens and bees, food and healthy eating, farming, and generally

making the world a better place. “Farming affects our earth more than anything else，” says Orren. “It's something you have to do correctly, or it will ruin our planet. It's often ignored, but for me, learning about where my food comes from has been really interesting.”

In fall 2009, Orren started a farm club at his school. “I wanted to get people to learn more about farming and what fun it is，” he says.

Orren's passion (热情) for farming and other types of animals continues to grow. He went to the Essex Country Bee School in early 2010 to learn about beekeeping. Orren now has three beehives (蜂箱) of happy bees. In the summer of 2011, Orren started to sell his honey, BeeHappy, to local stores. Next, he wants to raise sheep and goats. “I know a lot more about the environment and how farming affects it, but I still have a lot to learn，”says Orren. “I want to keep doing all of this as I get older.”

语篇解读：Orren在九岁那年对朋友家的一群鸡产生兴趣，后来自己开始饲养动物，从饲养这些小动物中，他了解到农业对环境保护的重要性。

In China, many people are leaving the countryside to find jobs in the cities, because the countryside is much poorer than the city, and often there isn't much work there.Services such as hospitals and transport are usually much better in the city than in the countryside.They hope that their lives will improve when they move to the city.

But in the big cities of Europe like London or Paris, people are moving out of the city.These rich families want to live a quieter life.They are tired of the noise and the dirt of the city, and they are tired of the crowded streets, crowded trains and buses.They don't want to live in the cities any more.They want a house with a garden in the countryside, and breathe the fresh air there.

So they move out of the cities.Some don't go very far, just to the towns near the cities.Other people move to the real countryside with sheep, cows and green fields.There, they start new lives and try to make new friends.

Not all those who move from the city to the countryside are happy.After two or three years, many people who have done this feel that it was a big mistake.They don't make so much money and there isn't much work to do.People in the countryside are very different and aren't always very friendly.

As a result, quite a lot of people who have moved to the countryside move back to the city.“It's_wonderful_to_see_crowds_in_the_streets_and_cinema_lights，” they say.

Dear editor，

I am a high school student. A few days before, one of my good friend told me that he was going to stop school. He said that he wanted to start his own's business.

A

It was a quiet village in which there was a military camp. It was far from the towns and cities and there were some high mountains around. Of course, it was a good place for training the new soldiers. But it was difficult for the young men to go outside. Mr White, an officer of forty, was strict with them and he hardly let them leave the camp.

Once Mr White was ill in bed. He couldn't work so a young officer, Mr Hunt, began to train the new soldiers instead of him. He knew the young men well and let nine soldiers go to the nearest town to have a holiday. But night fell and none came back to the camp. He was worried about it and stood at the gate. It was five to twelve when Mr Hunt decided to go to the town and see what was happening with the young men. He started the car quickly and set off. At that moment the nine soldiers came back. It seemed they were all drunk. Of course they found the officer was angry.

“I'm sorry, sir，”said the first soldier. “I left the town on time. But something was wrong with my bus on my way here. I had to buy a horse and made it run fast. Bad luck! It died and I had to run back.”

And the other seven soldiers said they were late for the same reasons. It was the last soldier's turn. He said，“ I'm sorry, sir. I got on a bus on time, but ...”

Having heard this, the officer became even angrier and stopped him at once. He called out，“If you say something was wrong with your bus, I'll punish you at once！”

“No, no, sir, ” said the young man. “My bus was all right, but the dead horses were in its way！”
