I can’t explain why I love Li Yuchun. If you hear her sing, you want to dance in your seat and rock along.
We interviewed the tall
and thin 21-year-old “Super Voice Girl” champion last week. 
How does Li get on-stage charm (舞台魅力)?
“I’ve always wanted to show my best side to everyone,” Li said. “That’s it.”
How about her boyish style (男孩风格)?
As a child, Li said she overheard her mother say that she would rather have had a son. It was only a joke, but Li took it seriously! She threw away all her skirts and began to dress like a boy. That became her style.
Li’s success didn’t come suddenly. She often performed in front of a mirror! All her practicing worked. Li sang her first concert and had her own fans when she was in middle school!
Life in the Sichuan Conservatory of Music gives Li more freedom to study music. “I meet a lot of friends who enjoy singing too,” said Li. But the music school is very strict! Her homework sometimes includes practicing 20 songs on the piano.
In the summer of 2005, Li won the first place in the “Super Voice Girl” singing contest. But even with millions of fans, Li keeps a cool head.
“Now I am standing at the same starting line as other Super Voice Girls,” she said. “I have to PK with myself in the real music world.”
Li doesn’t want to give up studying in school. She hopes to finish her senior year. She tells her readers, “New term starts. Let’s work hard together!”
46. How did Li Yunchun have a boyish style?
A. Her mother likes boys better than girls. B. She wants to play with boys.
C. She took her mother’s joke seriously. D. She didn’t care for her dress.
47. What does “overheard” mean in Chinese?

48. Why has Li Yuchun got success?

C. Because she looks very beautiful. D. Because she likes singing very much.
49. What will Li Yuchun do after she won the first place in the “Super Voice Girl” singing contest?
A. She will give up studying in school. B. She will go on with her lessons.
C. She will give up singing. D. She will have a good rest at home.

No matter
who you are or what you are interested in, Hawaii is the place to go. It has
something to offer everyone. 
Sitting in the Pacific Ocean, the islands have some of the most beautiful beaches on earth.
With white sands, the sea is great for surfing in winter and swimming and diving in summer. The weather is neither too cold nor too hot all year round. Green trees and beautiful flowers give pleasures to tourists.
It's hard for visitors to choose which of the many islands to stay on. But the best island for most people is Oahu (瓦胡岛). It is the centre of Hawaii. Oahu is also the most developed of the Hawaiian islands. But it is still a paradise (天堂) with white sandy beaches and beautiful scenery.

Native Hawaiian words also enter the many languages you'll find on the islands.
"Aloha!" is one of the most often used Hawaiian expressions. People say "Aloha" as either a greeting or a goodbye. Hawaiians are thought to be among the friendliest in the world, so you will often hear "Aloha"!
While in Hawaii, don't forget to enjoy hula (草裙舞) dancing, a great expression of Hawaiian culture. You can feel the heartbeat of the Hawaiian people during the hula. The songs are gentle and beautiful. The steps and movements show power and a deep respect (尊重) for nature.
Over the past 30 years, Hawaiians have developed a great sense of pride in their local language and culture. And many efforts have been made to protect them.

Beijing chose five special doll mascots for the 2008 Olympic games on Friday November 11, 2005. They represent (代表) a panda, a Tibetan antelope, a swallow (燕子), a fish and the spirit of the Olympic flame (火焰).
The mascots are called “Five Friendlies”. The names of the five dolls are “Beibei,” “Jingjing,” “Huanhuan,” “Yingying” and “Nini.” Beibei is the Fish, Jingjing is the Panda and also means “capital city”, Huanhuan is the Olympic Flame, Yingying is the Tibetan Antelope and Nini is the Swallow. They together mean “Beijing welcomes you.”
The mascot of the Olympic games usually becomes known to the public with only 1,000 days to go before the Games. The mascots will join the official games slogan (口号) “One World, One Dream”.
“The mascots carry the idea of the Games,” BOCOG official Zhang Ming said, “They’re part of Chinese culture. They show the Chinese people's hope for peace and friendship in the world and the spirit of the Olympics. They should be popular with children and liked by people from around the world.”
The mascots will be put on T-shirts, bags, cups, pens, and anything to do with the Olympics.
Coloured in the five colors of the Olympic rings, they also represent the sea, forests, fire, earth and air.
Several mascots are not strange. The 2000 Sydney games had three native Australian animals and two years later in Salt Lake City a hare, coyote (郊狼) and bear represented the event.
“We have been pleased about them," IOC chairman Hein Verbruggen said in Beijing. "That means we like them, or we wouldn't have done that.”

| 62. The mascots for the 2008 Olympic games are | |

"Is this your car, sir?" he asked Paul.
"Yes, my elder brother gave it to me for Christmas."
"Wow! I hope I can be a brother like that."
Paul was moved by his words. He asked the boy, "You want to go for a ride in my car?" "Sure. Thank you. Can you drive the car to my house?" the boy answered.
"No problem." Paul said. He thought that the boy just wanted to show off.
When they got to the boy's house, the boy asked Paul to wait and went into his house.
After a few minutes, the boy came out with a younger boy. "Sir, this is my younger brother. There's something wrong with his legs. He can't walk."
Then he said to his younger bother, "See, this is the present from his elder brother. One day, I'll give you a car like this, and you can go around to see those beautiful Christmas presents in the shop windows."

Make home a happier place to be
Maybe you think your parents don’t understand you. They stop you from dressing in a modern way. They mind who you’re calling. You seem not so close to them as you used to be. How can you get on well with them? Here are some ideas:
1. Talk to them about your school life and your plans for the future.
2. Tell them your needs and find out what their needs are.
3. Do some housework you can. They will feel that you are no longer a small child.
If you follow these steps, slowly, you will break down the walls between you and them. Make home a happier place to be.
