外刊阅读拓展 Unit 3　Welcome to our school！ 一、 阅读理解。 穿透雾霾 “Papa， please，” Akeisha said. “I just want to see the stars one time， to get above the haze（雾霾）.” She knew her father wouldn’t agree with her. If her mother had been still alive， many things might have been different， but that was like wishing for clean air. Some things were just never going to happen. 一 二 Papa closed the lid（盖子） of the sanitizer（消毒杀菌剂） harder than he should. “I’ve already told you no. Your nana（外婆） should never have suggested it. She knows how I feel about the rooftops（屋顶）. I’m afraid to stay high.” He looked over Akeisha’s head to where Nana stood. “She’s twelve，” Papa went on. “She is just a kid. She should think about her  　▲　， not stars.” 一 二 “It’s the age to do schoolwork，” Nana replied， hanging her jacket on an empty hook（挂钩） by the door. “Not everything is important， but the key card-well， that’s really important.” And she made sure that the door was closed. Four hours later， Akeisha closed her Maths textbook. Maths knowledge had stayed in her mind. If she wasn’t ready for the test， more studying wasn’t going to help. 一 二 Finally， the whole family were on the rooftop. They all looked tired， looking up at the green-yellow haze. Akeisha never saw a different sky. But she was sure she could see the sky with stars that night. （素材来源： Cricket） 一 二 （　B　）1. What did Akeisha just want to do one time？ A. To see her mother. B.

I painted my room. 4. ⁠ “Can I paint the outside？” I asked her. “I don’t want you up on a ladder（梯子）. I’ll ask Mr Dudley to paint it.” E　 D　 一 二 Our landlord（房东）， Mr Dudley， said yes， but month after month， he made excuses. He would always find a reason（理由） to put off（推迟） painting the outside.

Called PlantPetz， it has sensors that are inserted into the soil. They detect moisture levels and make the plant sensitive to the human touch and sounds. When PlantPetz determines that the soil is too dry， it makes a bubbling sound that tells its owner to water it. When a person touches the leaves or rotates the pot， the plant moves and makes chirping or cooing sounds. The battery-powered device also has Bluetooth to play music， which makes the plant “dance”. 探索发现 1 2 3 4 5 $$
