“We will be gone for two weeks,” Lisa’s mother said. “While we are gone, you will stay with Aunt Betsy.”
Aunt Betsy lived several hours away, in a big city. Lisa had never stayed with Aunt Betsy, so she didn’t know what to bring for her visit. The weather was warm, so she put some shorts and T-shirts in a bag. She put some books in another bag because she liked reading. Mostly she read books about horses.
When the day came, Aunt Betsy drove to Lisa’s house to pick her up. Lisa hugged (拥抱) her parents and said goodbye.

When the bell rings, every student takes out an iPad. The light from the screens makes their young faces pretty and lively. That’s what happens every day at my school in the US. We use iPads in class.
I felt surprised and excited when I got an iPad the first day I arrived at the school. But it was not free. I spent about $100 to rent (租) it for three years.
Every iPad at my school has a special learning system (系统)called Focus. Teachers put their teaching materials like textbooks and PPTs on it. When we have classes, we enter the system and download (下载) the materials with our iPads.
It makes the classes interesting and efficient (高效的). For example, a few weeks ago, we learned about London in the UK. Our teacher prepared a video in which we saw many places of interest in London. We could not only watch the video, but also see the words at the same time. Because of the video, I know more about the city.
We also do our homework with iPads. We can know how well we do our homework right after we submit (提交) our homework.
However, there are still some bad points about learning with iPads. Some of my classmates play games or surf the Internet in class.
I believe the key to use iPads well is to have good self-control (自制), isn’t it?
41. In the writer’s class, every student ________.
A. gets a free iPad from the teacher B. plays games on iPads in each class
C. shares an iPad with their classmates in class D. rents an iPad to use at school for three years

One day, when two little boys were walking along the road, they passed a woman carrying a large basket of apples.
The boys thought the woman looked very pale(苍白的) and tired, so they said, "Are you going to town? If you are, we will carry your basket" "Thank you," replied the woman. Then she told them that she had a disabled son. She lived in a small house three miles away, and was now going to the market to sell the apples which grew on the only tree in her little garden. She needed the money for their living.
"We are going the same way you are," said the boys and they took hold of the basket, one on each side, and trudged along with merry hearts. The poor woman looked glad, and said that she hoped their mother would not be angry with them. "Oh. no," they replied. "Our mother has taught us to be kind to others, and to be useful in any way that we can. "
The woman then offered to give them a few apples for their help. "No, thank you. We want nothing for what we have done," said the boys. When the woman got home, she told her son what had happened on the road, and they were both made happier that day by the kindness of the two boys.
Another day, the woman saw his son stop and pick up a piece of orange peel, which he threw into the dustbin. "I wish people would not throw orange peel on the sidewalk," said the son. ＂Someone may walk upon it, and fall" "That is right, my dear," she said. "It is a little thing for you to do what you have done, but it shows that you're thoughtful and considerate. "

D
Did you join in a camp this summer? There are so many summer camps and not all of them are the same. To choose which camp is best for you, first you must do a bit of research.
Maybe you’ve never thought about it before,but every great summer camp has the same main goals-opportunity
(机会),challenge(挑战)and growth.
Opportunity means you are given a chance to do something special. It also makes you special because other kids don’t have the same opportunity. For example, if you are interested in writing, then you can choose to join a journalism (新闻) camp. You may have the opportunity of meeting famous journalists there.
Challenge means you are given a task. You must finish the task and succeed in dealing with the challenge. Then you will have a sense of achievement. For example, you could take a lifeguard（救生员）course at some summer camps. If you pass the exam, then you will receive a certificate (证书) to become a real lifeguard.
This also leads to the third and most important goal of very great summer camp—personal growth. It doesn’t mean growing taller and stronger or more beautiful. It means seeing yourself improve, learning something new and doing something you didn’t know or believe you could do before. It also means becoming more confident（自信)in yourself.
So in the future when choosing your next summer camp, remember to ask yourself: Is it a special opportunity? Is it a challenge? Will I grow?
But what about friendship, fun and joy? These will all happen naturally when you have the right goals at summer camps!
11. Which is the writer’s opinion（观点）?
A. Different camps have different goals.
B. There are too many summer camps today.
C. All great summer camps have the same main goals.
D. All the summer camps offer the same activities and courses.
12. According to the passage, a camper feels successful when he ______.
A. joins the best camp B. finishes a hard task
C. grows taller and stronger D. takes a special chance
13. The most important thing for a camper is to ______.
A. take opportunities B. grow more beautiful
C. become better and more confident D. learn new life-saving skills
14. What does the last paragraph tell us?
A. It’s not important to have fun at a camp.
B. It’s hard to make real friends at a camp.
C. You can get more joy with more goals at camp.
D. With the right goals, you can have fun while learning at a camp.
15. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. What makes a camp great? B. Which is the best goal?
C. How to be a successful camper? D. How to do research work?
