Popular breakfast foods in theUnited States,as in many other countries around the world,include coffee,milk,juice,eggs and bread. Some other breakfast items served in theUnited Statesare thought by many to be traditionally American. However,they actually come from other countries.
A very popular breakfast food inAmericais the pancake―a thin,flat cake made out of flour and often served with maple syrup. The idea of the pancake is very old. In fact,pancakes were made long ago in ancientChina.
Bagels,a round thick bread with a hole in the middle,are also popular for breakfast inAmerica. Polish people in the late 1600s came up with the idea for the first bagels and this new kind of bread soon took off across Eastern Europe.
In the late 1800s,thousands of Jews from Eastern Europe traveled to theUnited Statesand brought the recipe for bagels with them. Today,New York bagels are said to be the best in the world. Many people have them with cream cheese for breakfast.
Doughnuts (usually spelled "donut" in theUnited States) came fromFrance. They were served to American soldiers inFranceduring World War I(第一次世界大戰(zhàn)) .After the war,American soldiers asked cooks in theUnited Statesto make doughnuts for them.

During all this time I never stopped thinking about escape. When I traveled across to the other side of the island (島嶼) ，I could see the other islands,and I said to myself, "Perhaps I can get there with a boat. Perhaps I can get back to England one day."
So I decided to make myself a boat. I cut down a big tree,and then began to make a long hole (洞) in it. It was hard work,but about six months later,I had a very fine canoe (獨(dú)木舟) .Next,I had to get it down to the sea. How silly I was!Why didn't I think before I began work? Of course,the canoe was too heavy. I couldn't move it!I pulled and pushed and tried everything,but it didn't move. I was very unhappy for a long time after that.
That happened in my fourth year on the island. In my sixth year I did make myself a smaller canoe,but I did not try to escape in it. The boat was too small for a long journey,and I did not want to die at sea. The island was my home now,not my prison,and I was just happy to be alive. A year or two later,I made myself a second canoe on the other side of the island. I also built myself a second house there,and so I had two homes.
My life was still busy from morning to night. There were always things to do or to make. I learnt to make new clothes for myself from the skins of dead animals. They looked very strange,it is true,but they kept me dry in the rain.
I kept food and tools (工具) at both my houses,and also wild goats (山羊) .There were many goats on the island,and I made fields with high fences to keep them in. They learnt to take food from me,and soon I had goats' milk to drink every day. I also worked hard in my corn (玉米) fields. And so many years went by.

The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health. There are plenty of "energy drinks" on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great ！
But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine (咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people,students,busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.
Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this,the International Olympic Committee has limited (限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks.

Where in the world can you take an hour's train ride,and pass a forest,a London street,a scene from the Wild West,and a burning building that never burns down? There's only one place,and that's Hollywood,in California. The scenes you see from the tourist train are film sets (布景) in the Universal Studios,one of the oldest and largest movie companies (公司) in the USA.
A visit to Universal Studios brings back memories of great days of Hollywood,the films and the stars. But they are only memories. Hollywood isn't quite the same as it used to be. Costs have gone up and confidence has gone down. Moviemakers are afraid to spend their money on expensive new ideas. Instead,they repeat old ones.
The film industry is changing fast. Teenagers still go out to the movies. The theatre is a good place to meet friends away from home. But older people mostly stay at home to watch series like Dynasty. TV series have become as important to Hollywood as expensive movies. These " soap opera" ， as they are called,show rich,powerful families living in beautiful homes and wearing beautiful clothes. But the actors and actresses are nearly aJJ middleaged,like many of the people who watch them.
Though it is soap operas that are keeping the filmmakers of Hollywood in business,big films are still being made in America. But more and more of them are made outside Hollywood. New York is the most important new center,but there are many others as well. Moviemakers have realized that they don't need Hollywood any more. Modern cameras and real houses instead of expensively made copies in a studio. Other states,especially Florida and Texas,are working hard to take the film business away from California. They are offering better working conditions and lower cost.

A. young people don't go to movie theatres any more

( ) 13. Which of the following seems to be a threat (威脅) to Hollywood?
A. The use of modern cameras and other equipment
B. The interest of middleaged film stars
C. The making of TV series like Dynasty
D. The expensively made copies of scenes
( ) 14. What can we learn about "soap operas" from the passage?
A. They are teenagers' favorites.
B. They are much more expensive.
C. They are less attractive.
D. They are cheaper and easier to make.
