Is it difficult for you to get up in the morning?Hiroyuki's bed will solve your problem!Here is how it works．

　　The bed is connected to an alarm(鬧鐘)clock．First, the alarm clock rings．You have a few minutes to wake up．Next, a tape recorder in the bed plays soft music．The tape recorder in Hiroyuki's bed plays a recording of his girlfriend．She whispered in a soft voice,”Wake tip, darling, please．”A few minutes later, Hiroyuki hears a recording of his boss．His boss shouts,”Wake tip at once, or you'll be late!”If you don't get Lip after the second recording, a mechanical(機械的)“foot”in the bed will kick you on the head．The bed waits a few more minutes．What!You're still in bed!Slowly the top of the bed rises higher and higher．The foot of the bed goes lower and lower．Finally you slide(滑)off the bed and onto the floor．You are out of bed awake!

　　Hiroyuki's bed is not in stores．There is only one bed——the bed Hiroyuki made for a contest(比賽)．Maybe someday a company will make Hiroyuki's bed and sell it in stores．Maybe people will buy millions of beds．Then Hiroyuki will be rich．If the bed makes Hiroyuki rich, he won't need to work, and he won't need to get up early!

　　Zheng He, the Columbus of the East, was an amazing man．

　　He was born in 1371 and, 11 years later, was caught by the army of a rich young man called Zhu Di and made to work for him．Over time the rich man saw that Zheng He was very clever and strong and they became close friends．In 1403 Zhu Di was made the King of China and he asked Zheng He to join his new government．

　　The King wanted to learn more about the world and show other countries his power．He ordered many new ships to be built and made Zheng He their leader．Between 1405 and 1433, Zheng He led seven sea trips to different parts of the world．He certainly travelled to India, Africa and the Middle East．A few people think his ships may have even reached South America and Australia．

　　Each trip lasted between two and four years and it is believed he sailed more than 50 000 kms during the years of his travels．With 28 000 men and over 300 ships, such as boats for food, water and even soldiers' horses, Zheng He led a fleet(艦隊)whose size would not be equalled by Europeans for over 500 years I

　　On these trips he brought with him many Chinese goods like silk and medicine to give to foreign kings or to sell for local goods．He returned from each trip with boats filled with expensive things such as gold and jewellery, foreign guests and strange animals like a giraffe．

　　It is a pity that we may never learn everything about Zheng He s travels．After he died in 1433, the new king, who believed these trips were unlucky and too expensive, had them stopped and he burned almost all the books about Zheng He’s travels．It is only in the last 50 years that historians have begun to carefully study the adventures of the great Zheng He．

(1)

[　　]

A．

To bring new countries under the control of China．

B．

To show the world how strong the King was．

C．

To receive gifts from the kings of other countries．

D．

To discover unusual animals．

(2)

What do we know about Zheng He from the passage?

[　　]

A．

He sailed to all seven continents．

B．

Each of his trips lasted one year．

C．

He died at the age of 62．

D．

He was a successful businessman．

(3)

Which of the following did Zheng He NOT bring with him from China?

[　　]

A．

Medicine．

B．

Gold．

C．

Animals．

D．

Silk．

What happened after Zheng He died?

A．

He was forgotten for ever．

B．

His ships were all burned．

The new king wrote a book about him．

Sea trips to other countries were stopped．

Spinach Power

It’s the spinach (菠菜)! The sailor opens the can and eats it. Then things change very quickly!

He grows very tall and strong. His muscles (肌肉) come out. No one can beat him now. This is Popeye the sailor. Now the cartoons of the sailor and his spinach are on show in the Museum of Television and Radio in New York. It’s for Popeye’s seventy?fifth birthday.

“There are few characters (角色) that are so old and still loved by people,” said Barry Monush, from the show. Popeye loves a very thin and tall girl, Olive Oyl. She often gets into trouble. But Popeye is the one to save her!

Most kids have watched this cartoon on TV. Mum says spinach is good, but kids only begin to like it because of the sailor! Who can forget his face with its large chin (下巴) and almost closed right eye? Popeye always wins. He’s simple, but he knows how to stop the strong Bluto’s bad plans. In 1929, Popeye was first in the comic strip (連環(huán)畫) “Thimble Theatre” (《頂針劇院》) by E.C. Segar in the US. He only had a small part. But two years later he had his own comic strip. Americans ate 33 percent more spinach in the 1930s! “He shows anybody can be great,” said Wang Di, 14, from Beijing. “He gets angry, but I still love him and his spinach.”
