On a cold winter morning, a poor boy called Howard Kelly was on his way to school. He was so hungry that he decided to beg(乞討)for a meal at the next house.

A lovely young lady opened the door and she brought him a large glass of milk. He had it slowly, and then asked,“How much do I owe(欠)you”

“You owe(欠) me nothing,” she replied. “Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness.” He said, “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

Years later the woman became seriously ill. The local doctors sent her to the big city, where specialists(專(zhuān)家)can study her illness. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous, was called in for the consultation (會(huì)診). When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Immediately, he rose and went to her room. He recognized her at once and decided to do his best to save her life. From that day on, he gave special attention to her and her illness.

After a long time, the lady was well again at last. Dr. Kelly asked the hospital office to pass the final bill to him. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to her room. She was afraid to open it because she had thought that it would take the rest of her life to pay it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side caught her attention. “Paid in full with a glass of milk.”

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,回答下列問(wèn)題。

1.What was the weather like that winter morning?

2.What did the young lady bring the poor boy when the boy begged(乞討)?

3.Did Dr. Kelly recognize(認(rèn)出) the woman after she saw her in her room?

4.Why was the woman afraid to open the bill?

5.Who paid the final bill for the woman?

Millions of children in the United States go to summer camps. Some go to play outdoors at traditional camps in the woods, in the mountains or on lakes. But families now have many choices of special camps. These can be in the middle of nature or a big city. Special camps offer young people the chance to learn about different subjects: anything from space exploration to business to medicine.

In technology camps, one subject that children can learn about is video game design. They learn how to use computer programs to create games of their own. One program that teaches video game design is called Cybercamps. Children can learn how to design their own virtual(實(shí)際上的) worlds to set their video game in. Then, they program their own rules and objects into the game.

Cybercamps also offers courses in robot building and Web design. A recent story in the Washington Post described how one child made a robot that could sing a song. Another made a robot that could follow a black line drawn on a piece of cardboard. Also, children can learn how to make Web sites. One child made a site for Pokemon, one of his favourite cartoon shows.
