James’s New Bicycle
James shook his money box again. Nothing! He carefully  26  the coins that lay on the bed. $24.52 was all that he had. The bicycle he wanted was at least $90!  27   on earth was he going to get the  28  of the money?
He knew that his friends all had bicycles. It was  29  to hang around with people when you were the only one without wheels. He thought about what he could do. There was no  30  asking his parents, for he knew they had no money to  31  .
There was only one way to get money, and that was to  32  it. He would have to find a job.  33   who would hire him and what could he do? He decided to ask Mr. Clay for advice, who usually had  34  on most things.
“Well, you can start right here,” said Mr. Clay. “My windows need cleaning and my car needs washing.”
That was the  35  of James’s odd-job(零工) business. For three months he worked every day after finishing his homework. He was amazed by the   36   of jobs that people found for him to do. He took dogs and babies for walks, cleared out cupboards, and mended books. He lost count of the  37  of cars he washed and windows he cleaned, but the   38  increased and he knew that he would soon have   39   for the bicycle he longed for.

He rode   42  home, hoping to show his new bicycle to his friends. It had been hard   43   for the money, but James knew that he valued his bicycle far more   44   he had bought it with his own money. He had   45  what he thought was impossible, and that was worth even more than the bicycle.

Quality after-school programs are designed to improve academic performance, decrease youth crimes and other high -risk behaviors, and help young people grow into healthy, successful adults.
The effect of quality after-school programs on academic performance is clear. Studies show that students who take part in such programs show better work habits, higher rates of homework completion, improved grades, and higher scores on achievement tests. They also have fewer absences and are less likely to blame. After-school programs also influence high-risk teen behavior. Various studies show decreased rates of crime, drug use, and teen sex among youth who join in well-run after-school programs when compared to similar youth who do not. Finally, after-school programs play an important role in supporting the following fields of development: physical development, mental development and social development. Thus, one can safely say that after-school programming is an effective method to help young people become contributing members of society.
Although there is enough proof from both small and large assessments that after-school programs can make a positive difference, it is important to note that not all programs are equal. First, dosage(时量)matters —young people who attend the most hours over the most years benefit more than members who attend less often or over a shorter period of time. Next, after-school programs make a bigger difference for those students who need help most and have the fewest choices. Finally, program qualities matter. After-school programs work best when they create unique opportunities for youth. They should provide opportunities, skill building meaningful involvement, expression suggestion, service, and work. Staff characteristics make an important difference in the quality of a program. The adults should treat youth as partners, create safe and fair environment, encourage personalized involvement, and actively create learning opportunities. In short, although after-school programs have promising future, how they are  designed and run matters.
1. Quality after-school programs can not help the students       .
A. have fewer attendances            B. improve academic performance
C. have high scores on tests           D. decrease high-risk teen behavior
2. According to the passage, a good after-school program is usually determined by       .
a. its unique opportunities            b. safe and fair environments
c. work staff characteristics           d. students’ willingness and family backgrounds
A. a, b, c, d          B. a, b, c       C. a, c, d         D. b, c, d
3. The main intention of the writer is to       .
A. present the problems with quality after -school programs
B. warn school leaders of quality after-school programs
C. compare quality after-school programs with bad ones
D. give an introduction of quality after -school programs
4. Which of the following structures suits the passage best?
   A. Quality Aims      
     After-school   Effects
      Program      Analysis   Conclusion
   B. Quality Aims      
     After-school   Causes    Effects

Apply to an American College
Earlier, we explained how to begin a search for schools by going to one of the American educational advising centers around the world. We also discussed the rules for entering the United States. And we talked about programs that can be completed online.
But if your goal is to come to the United States to study, then it is time to make a list of colleges or universities that interest you. Be sure to choose more than one. Directors of foreign student admissions say students should apply to at least three schools.
Some students want to attend a small college. Others want to go to a big university. If a really big university appeals to you, then there are ones like Ohio State. That university in Columbus, Ohio, in the Midwest, has almost fifty-two thousand students. There are students this year from around one hundred fifty countries.
Ohio State provides international students with an application on its Website. You can pay the application charge online with a credit card. Or you can print the forms and mail them with the payment.
Many colleges and universities have their applications and also their catalogs online. You should start on your applications at least two years before you want to begin studies.
Completing a college application can take some time. But answering all the questions is not enough. Another important step is taking admissions tests. The SAT is the college entry test that American high school students most commonly take.
Colleges and universities also require international students to take the TOEFL — the Test of English as a Foreign Language.
If you have a general question for our Foreign Student Series, write to special @ voanews. com.

Ms Lo could hardly bear her sorrow when she received the call that her husband had died in a car accident. Her pain quickly turn to shock---- the car involved in the accident was driven by a friend. That friend, Henry Lee, had chosen to remain silent on the accident details in court. Her shock soon turned to extreme anger when Lee decided not to let out what had happened.

I wanted to forgive him, but now I have no chance to tell him.” she said.
