Life was difficult for these people. Most factory workers had to work long hours and lived in small rooms. They weren’t very happy with city life and missed their farms in the countryside. Richard Vaughan Yates was a factory owner. He worried about his workers. So he decided to provide his workers with a green space near his factory in Toxteth in south Liverpool. There his workers could enjoy plants, just like they did in the countryside. He paid the famous gardener Joseph Paxton to build Britain’s first town park, Princes Park. And Princes Park opened in 1842. Then, the next year, Birkenhead, a town near Liverpool, paid Paxton to build another park, Birkenhead Park, and it opened in 1847. Finally, factory workers in Liverpool had places near their homes to relax after a hard day at work. Soon other towns and cities in Britain learnt about Liverpool’s parks. By 1900, many big towns and cities in Britain had one park. The famous architect (建筑师) Richard Rogers said “parks are one of Britain’s great creations”. It’s hard to disagree with him. With parks, we can have a break from the stress (压力) of our lives. And that’s very important. 51. In the early 19th century, most factory workers worked ________ and lived in small rooms. 52.

She had to look after the younger children. “I wish we had a water well in the village,” Miremba said as she left her house. On the way to the river, there were animals like tigers and bears. So Miremba usually walked to the river with her friend Akiki. That day while they were walking to the river, they met a snake. Their hearts beat like drums. Luckily, the snake didn’t hurt them and went away. On their way home, Miremba asked, “Do you remember Miss Miller from England? She visited us last year.” “Yes.

Miss Miller had raised enough money and came to help them build a well here. “Miss Miller does remember us!” said Miremba happily. “We’re going to have a well!

One day, she and her third-grade class read about the Great American Smokeout in Weekly Reader. The Smokeout is an event to help people give up smoking. The American Cancer Society runs it. “We read that about 1 million people give up smoking each year,” said Ms Evans. Then her students asked her, “What does 1 million look like?” Ms Evans told her class the best way to see 1 million was to collect 1 million things. “I was thinking about collecting 1 million small things like erasers,” said the teacher. But her students had a better idea: to collect 1 million pennies (分) and give them to the American Cancer Society. Soon the class started their big job. Many people in the neighbourhood joined the students. Ms Evans said that the bank in their neighbourhood had to keep more pennies because so many people were collecting them. That June, the class went to the office of the American Cancer Society with 1,177,500 pennies, or $11,775. They hoped that the money could help more people keep healthy. 36.

Life was difficult for these people. Most factory workers had to work long hours and lived in small rooms. They weren’t very happy with city life and missed their farms in the countryside. Richard Vaughan Yates was a factory owner. He worried about his workers. So he decided to provide his workers with a green space near his factory in Toxteth in south Liverpool. There his workers could enjoy plants, just like they did in the countryside. He paid the famous gardener Joseph Paxton to build Britain’s first town park, Princes Park. And Princes Park opened in 1842. Then, the next year, Birkenhead, a town near Liverpool, paid Paxton to build another park, Birkenhead Park, and it opened in 1847. Finally, factory workers in Liverpool had places near their homes to relax after a hard day at work. Soon other towns and cities in Britain learnt about Liverpool’s parks. By 1900, many big towns and cities in Britain had one park. The famous architect (建筑师) Richard Rogers said “parks are one of Britain’s great creations”. It’s hard to disagree with him. With parks, we can have a break from the stress (压力) of our lives. And that’s very important. 51. In the early 19th century, most factory workers worked ________ and lived in small rooms. 52.
