A Big Bubbles
- 3 -
B. Going to the theater. C. Watching
We all love bubbles. They float through the air like little glass balls, shining with colors and light. You can make bubbles with dishwashing soap and a paper cup. Soap makes the water stick together in a round shape. The bubbles you blow will be really big!
Here’s what you will need:
? A large bowl ? A spoon ? 4 cups of water ? 5 tablespoons of dishwashing soap ? A pair of scissors ? A paper cup
Follow these steps(步骤) to make big bubbles:
1. Fill the bowl with the water.
2. Add the dishwashing soap into the water and mix them together.
3. Cut a small hole in the bottom of the paper cup. This is the hole that you
will blow through.
4. Dip the top rim of the cup into the soapy water. Slowly lift the cup out of
the bowl. There should be a thin “window” of soapy water filling the open space of the cup.
5. Slowly put your mouth up to the hole in the bottom of the cup. Gently blow
air through the hole. A big bubble will rise into the air! For a party, you can make a bowl of soapy water and a paper cup bubble-blower for each friend. If your friends do step 4 and 5 again and again, just think of how many bubbles you can make together! 21.What is the passage mainly about? A.People can make bubble-blowers. C.It is easy to make big bubbles.
B.Bubbles are shining with colors.
D.Everyone loves big bubbles.
22.Which step tells you to add dishwashing soap into the water? A.Step 1.
B.Step 2.
C.Step 3.
D.Step 4.
23.To blow more bubbles, which two steps should you do again? A.1 and 2.
B

B.2 and 3. C.3 and 4. D.4 and 5.
It warmed my heart today to walk into the Thirsty Camel downtown in the Thanksgiving Day, for a quick lunch before a haircut and library trip. Ihan, a food shop owner, said that he was refusing to take money today because it was Buy Nothing Day. To increase awareness(意识) of the stranger’s over-spending nature of our society, Ilan suggested a trade（交易）for food today. He simply asked that you offer something of equal personal value for the meal you received.
At first I was really uncomfortable, wondering if it would be fair(公平的) to exchange a yet to be determined “I Owe You” (IOU) for food? What could I give him of equal value? After all, his food is the best in the town!
We ended up writing our IOU’s with promises in a lot of ways if he needs it, such as a book, some paintings and the offer of work. I think the idea isn’t that the trade is “equal” so much as the importance of the kind of transaction. We put thought into our offer and we had an even greater understanding for the meals we ate. We don’t buy a lot, especially at this upcoming time of year. We don’t give gifts at all in fact. The holiday time is spent enjoying each other’s company and doing things together with family and friends. This is what seems most sensible（明智的）. Ilan is a good person. We are all lucky to have someone like this in our community. 24.Ilan did not take any money that day in order to______. A.to increase awareness of people’s over spending B.have a quick lunch before a haircut and library trip C.trade for something for nothing D.buy nothing that day to save some money
25.For the meal, the author finally offered Ilan______. A.some promises C.some paintings
B.a book
D.work in different ways
26.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “transaction”? A.transport
B.trade
C.meal
D.giving
27.What is the author’s attitude to Buy Nothing Day? A.Disagreeable
B.Meaningless.
- 5 -
C.Doubtful. D.Supportive.
