In modern society, living without money sounds almost impossible. However, that’s exactly what an Australian couple from a big city has been doing for nearly a whole year.
Rachel Newby, 25, and Liam Culbertson, 27, have come up with creative ways of making it through the year without spending any money. They built themselves a new house. The house was made of used wood and recycled materials. They grew their own food, and at times they didn’t hesitate to look for food in the dustbins (垃圾箱).
But this year has been quite difficult. The soil in their garden was too poor to grow vegetables. The climate (氣候) there was terrible as well. They kept moving their home till they finally lived in a 2.5-square-meter house. They collected cold rainwater to take a shower. What’s worse, they had to share a toilet with the rest of the community.
Even though they had no jobs, they didn’t have a lot of free time to waste. They spent most of the day working for local farmers planting vegetables and picking fruit so that they could earn their next meal. They had five ducks that could provide them with fresh eggs. But when there wasn’t enough food for them, they had to go to look for food in the dustbins.
Not everyone is brave enough to do this. But they really made it work and they felt happy.

In order to show that showering isn’t a big deal, an American hasn’t taken a shower for 12 years. Instead, he sprays (噴灑) himself w ith something special that is said to have kept him clean over the years.
Dave Whitlock, a chemical engineer, thinks no fact can show that bathing is a healthy practice. “I haven’t taken a shower for 12 years, ” he says. “In fact, the chemical (化學物) in our soap have killed all the friendly bacteria (細菌) that live on our skin when we use it. ”
For a long time, many people haven’t realized skin bacteria are important and helpful to the body. Although Whitlock isn’t a biologist (生物學家), he has tried his best to invent a kind of spray called “Mother Dirt” with friendly bacteria. According to Whitlock, the bacteria in the spray can take in something dirty on our skin and produce a kind of chemical which is good for our body.
Now the spray is being produced in a company which Whitlock has helped to set up. The spray has no smell and feels just like water. It can be sprayed all over the skin twice a day to avoid showering. And for those who really enjoy showering, the company is planning to develop a kind of special shower gel (沐浴露) with friendly bacteria.

A. It can help to keep the skin clean and healthy.
B. It can help the skin produce more friendly bacteria.
C. It smells better than shower gel we use.
D. There are not any chemicals in it.
73. What can we know about Dave Whitlock?
A. He is an American biologist.
B. He thinks showering is important.
C. He always uses some soap to wash himself.
D. He’s trying to make people learn a lot about showering.

A few years ago, my husband and I were on an island for a weekend with our 3- and 4-year-old daughters. As we went back and thought about what to do next, our girls jumped in and told us exactly what they wanted to do. “We want to go to the butterfly museum, ” said Ariela and Eliana.
As soon as we walked into the main area of the museum, we saw thousands of beautiful butterflies, all flapping (拍打) their colourful wings.
My girls were jumping up and down and I knew we had made the right decision to come to the museum. They were having so much fun. I turned to our museum tour guide because I was curious and asked, “How long do butterflies live? ” She said, “About ten days. ” “What can butterflies do in ten days? ” I asked. The guide stopped, looked at me and said, “They make the world a more beautiful place. ” “Wow, ” I said, “I never thought about butterflies like that. Thank you. ”
After we said goodbye, I couldn’t stop thinking about what the guide had said. She was right. We all have something to offer the world with the time we have. When we focus our gifts on taking care of each other every day, we can make a difference.

Many people think they have a bad memory. They always spend so much time reciting(背誦) lessons. What can we do to improve our memory? Here are some suggestions.
Vivian, 15, from Beijing
I have some tricks to help remember lessons. First, you need to understand the meaning of each sentence. The better you understand, t he easier it is to remember. Second, you can do research to get some background on it, like its writer and how he or she wrote it. It can help you understand the story better. Finally, read it aloud and imagine things in the story. You may find a lot of pictures come to mind. Then try to describe them.
Zhao Yujie, 14, from Jiangsu
Finding the best way to learn and r emember can be hard sometimes. But don’t worry. It’s all about finding what works for you. One thing that always helps me is taking good notes while I read my lessons. But instead of copying it word for word, I put it into my own words. This will help you think through things better. Also, you can use the notes to go back and review later. Try this on your next lesson and see if it helps!
91 on how to improve yo ur memory
Vivian You should understand the meaning of each sentence at 92 . It is 93 for you to remember if you understand better.
Then, you can do some research on the background, 94 as the writer and how he or she wrote it.
At 95 , read it aloud and try to imagine things in the story. There will be lots of pictures in your 96 . Then try to describe them.
Zhao Yujie It is sometimes 97 to find the best way to learn and remember. But don’t be 98 about it. It’s all about finding what works for you.
You can take good notes while 99 your lessons, especially in your own words. It’s good for you to go back and review with the 100 .

九、書面表達
John, a Grade 9 student, is my best friend. He is well-organized and pays attention to details. Besides, he has a heart full of love.John is crazy about drawing and he is good at expressing his own thoughts by using colors. His favourite color is yellow as it is the color of the sun and it represents success.
However, he has some problems at present. First, his parents are strict with him and they care too much about marks after each exam. Then, he often stays up so late to finish his homework that he even doubts whether it is worth spending so much time on it.
My suggestions are as follows. I think he’d better communicate more with his parents. It’s also a good idea for him to plan his time carefully so that he can finish his homework on time. In addition, maybe he should make a list of all the homework that he needs to do and work out how much time he needs.
I really hope my advice can be valuable to him.
