John Michael Thomas, 14, Florida When John Michael Thomas decided to honor his friend and classmate Elizabeth Buckley, who died from cancer, he remembered how much she loved peacocks（孔 雀）. He wanted to build a life-sized peacock fountain in Elizabeth’s favourite park in the city. He thought it could be a place for people to relax and be inspired.

Barrett England, 13, Utah The wheels began to turn for Barrett England when he heard about Karma Bike shop, a place where young people can get a free bike by reading and performing community service.

Zachary Blohm, 15, Wisconsin The 25-year-old playground at an elementary school near Milwaukee, Wis., was so small that only 70 of its 575 students could play on it at a time. That’s when Zachary Blohm saved the day. He and some volunteers wanted to build a huge playground. To raise money, Zac planned T-shirt and bake sales, sold tickets and more. He held monthly money-raising events for more than a year. Overall, he collected $130, 000—enough to finish his project. Jack Zimmerman, 16, New Jersey For some people, finding a meal is as simple as opening the refrigerator. For more than 366, 000 hungry kids in New Jersey, it’s not that easy.

I only referred to her as “My Aunt Fannie” because the name always made my father laugh quietly and gave my mother cause to look strictly at both of us—at me for being disrespectful of my elder and at my father for encouraging my bad behavior. I enjoyed both reactions, so I looked for every opportunity to work the name into as many conversations as possible. As a young woman, my mother had worked in the kitchen of a large Victorian farmhouse. During those years my mother helped Aunt Fanny make the best blueberry jam ever tasted by anyone in Glenfield. She was well-known for her jam and for never sharing the recipe with others. Even though my mother knew the recipe by heart as long as aunt Fannie was alive, she never made the jam without Aunt Fannie in our kitchen to direct the process and keep the secret. Each August, my mother would prepare me for Aunt Fannie’s visit. One year, after I had helped with the jam process, Aunt Fannie gave me a coin and then made me promise that I would never spend it. “Hold onto this coin,” she said, “and someday you will be rich. I still have my very first coin, given to me by my grandmother.” So, I kept the coin in a small box and waited to become rich. I now have the blueberry jam recipe and the coin from Aunt Fannie. In people’s eyes Aunt Fannie’s success resulted from that secret recipe. But to me, it was just a common recipe. Neither have made me become a rich person, but I keep them as reminders to hold onto the valuable things in life. Money can make you feel rich for a while, but it is the relationships and the memories of time spent with friends and family that truly leave you wealthy. And that is a fortune that anyone can build. 19. The underlined word “she” in Paragraph 2 refers to A. Aunt Fannie B. the author’s grandmother C. the author’s mother D. Aunt Fannie’s grandmother 20. According to the passage, the coin Aunt Fannie gave me was________. A. the first coin I had received. B. put into a small box with the one given by my grandmother. C. going to bring me wealth. D. a reminder to cherish the valuable things in my life. 21. In the last paragraph, the author encourages readers to ________. A. hold onto the first coin in life B. make as many friends as possible C. make money with their own hands D. spend more time with family and friends 22. What could be the best title for this passage? A. The Key to Success B. Blueberry Jam Recipe C. A Fortune built from a Coin D. A Relationship of Trust 4 C Children who spend more time outdoors may have a lower risk of becoming nearsighted，new research suggests. In the study researchers looked at about 1,900 schoolchildren.The scientists found that the kids who had been instructed to spend more time outdoors over three years were 23 percent less likely to develop nearsightedness during this time than those who had not been instructed to spend more time outdoors.Moreover，among the kids who did become nearsighted during the study，the degree to which their eyesight worsened was slightly smaller among those who spent more time outdoors. The researchers selected six schools and required the children，whose average age was 7 at the start of the study，to attend one additional 60-minute class of outdoor activities during each school day for three years.The parents of these children were also encouraged to engage their children in outdoor activities after school，especially during weekends and holidays.The other half of the children， from another six schools， continued their usual activity patterns.After three years
