    The Readers is a popular TV show.It invites different people to read aloud on the stage.The1also tells the moving stories behind those people.They can read everything2poems，books，and letters.By reading aloud，the words on the paper come to 3.

    Many people are fans of the show.They begin to4reading aloud at home.Now，the show gives people a5place to read across China.It is a reading pavilion(朗读亭).They are in many cities，including Shanghai，Hangzhou and Xi'an.

    The pavilion is very6.Only one person can come into it each time.There is a microphone(麦可风)in it and it records people's7.Everyone can read for three minutes in the pavilion.They can read  8they like.The show will pick some of the readers and invite them to read on TV.

    People of all9read in the pavilion."Reading should be just like singing and talking，"said Dong Qing，the producer of the show."We can express our true10by reading aloud."

    In nature，you may see many insects and animals of different colors．Have you ever wondered why?

Locusts(蝗虫)are super delicious food for birds，but it is not always an easy job for birds to catch them．It is neither because locusts are good jumpers or runners nor because they are smarter than their enemies．The reason is that the colors of locusts change with the colors of crops(农作物)．When crops are young，locusts look green．But when autumn comes，locusts change to the yellow and brown color as crops do．

    Brown bears，tigers and other animals move quietly through forests．They can't be seen easily by their enemies．This is because they have colors similar to the trees．For the same reason．polar bears that live on a land of snow and ice are white．Butterflies and bees living among the flowers are colorful like flowers．Soil insects are mostly dark—colored and they live under the soil in a dark and wet environment．However，insects with colors different from plants can easily be found and eaten by others．So in order to survive ， they have to hide themselves in the daytime and appear only at night．

    Have you ever noticed some even stranger acts? The ink fish in the sea can send out some very black ink when it faces danger．As the ink spreads over．its enemies will not find themselves suddenly in a dark world．At the same time the ink fish immediately swims away．That is how it keeps itself save though it is not strong at all．

    To be honest, I enjoy music a lot and Tejano music is my favorite．Tejano music was born in Texas．Although it has influences from Mexico and some other Latin American countries，the main influence is from America．

    Like most music around the world，Tejano music mixes many different styles．It combines(结合)folk，country，rock and a bit of the blues．

I prefer to listen to Tejano music because it makes me feel good．I enjoy dancing to it，too．It's so easy that there is no rule for my friends who want to join me．Some of my classmates also like Tejano music．It is popular with young people．

    I also love other kinds of music．I listen to rock when I'm happy．My favorite rock band is Creed because they sing a lot about their lives and express how they feel in their songs．They sing about their past experiences，their feelings and the way they want their lives to change．I also like heavy metal music．Metallica is my favorite heavy metal band．I usually listen to their music when I am upset．It tells me that．whatever difficulties I meet in life，I must try hard to get the things I want and I should never give up．

    Music influences us all in different ways．What type of music do you like?

    Last Sunday，we had a class trip to enjoy      ．Our head teacher took us to the      for a picnic．When we arrived there at 9：00 am by bus，we heard a big sound．It was made by the wind and the waves(海浪)．It sounded like they were playing wonderful symphony(交响乐)．

    Right away，we sat down and started to enjoy our picnic．We told jokes，sang and played games while       sandwiches，chocolate and other snacks．In the afternoon，some students chased(追逐)each other in the      and swam for fun．Alice and I attempted to catch      in the water．Some students helped the cleaners      up the rubbish．Others played cards and chess．Everyone looked extremely      ．

    At 4：30 pm，we had to go back to school，      we wanted to spend some more time on the beach. Just then, I found a blue hair band on the sand．"I think Alice dropped it" Sam said， "because she likes the      color．"But I thought it      belong to her because I saw her wearing a yellow one．At last, we knew it was Cindy's．We went back to school at 5：45 pm．The picnic came to an end．but we'll always remember the good time we had．

    A Greeting is a way of saying "Hello" to．someone．People in different countries greet each other in different ways．The following are some examples．

    In the United State，people usually shake hands．The handshake has an interesting origin(起源)．It started long ago as a way of showing people that they weren't carrying a weapon(武器)．Shaking the person's right hand while looking him or her in the eye is the usual way．

    Handshakes are also common in other parts of the world，including Britain and Russia．In Russia, a man often holds another man's hand very strongly during the handshake．Most people in New Zealand also greet each other by shaking hands．However，the Maori people in New Zealand greet each other by pressing their noses together．

    In other countries，such as France and Belgium，hugging and kissing are more common when two people meet. In those cultures，people kiss each other on the cheek(面额)．The number of kisses is different from country to country．In Saudi Arabia，men might hug and kiss each other(but not with a woman)on the check．In some Eastern countries，including Japan，bowing is the traditional way of greeting people．
