"Can you please mow the lawn?" Margaret asked him.

Chad saw his wife in the yard. He watched her for a while and then he went back inside the house. A few minutes later he came out again,with a comb. He gave the comb to Margaret.

I hid behind my mother and she hid behind her grandmother. Both dared not look at each other. But soon we were no longer shy,and started playing with each other.
In the 7th grade,I was no longer so friendly with her. She was going through family problems then,and I deserted her to make friends with some more interesting people.

Have you ever heard someone say he is going outside "to get a breath of fresh air"？
Have you ever tried to imagine what life would be like if the air was so dirty that people couldn't get a breath of fresh air?
Everyone wants to know why the air has become so bad. Well,millions of cars and factories often give out waste gas. A lot of garbage is burned every day. . . Sometimes you can smell the pollution and sometimes,when the air looks smoky,you can even see it. But more often,pollution is invisible.
Whether you can see it or not,air pollution can cause a lot of damage. Not only people,but also plants,animals or buildings would suffer from it. Sometimes polluted air flies into the sky,then falls to the earth with snow,rain or dust again,and they turn the water acidic (酸的) .And indoor air pollution comes from cigarette smoke,carpet (地氈) cleaners and other ordinary household products.
Scientists have been fighting against air pollution for many years. They ask factories control the waste gas,and they have found some new ways to make the air clean. Cars have been equipped (裝備) with something to give out little gas. . . As for indoor pollution,people can just open doors and windows for a while to let the fresh air in.
Thanks to different kinds of controls,the air in the United States is better than it used to be. For example,between 1975 and 1984,the amount of carbon monoxide (—氧化碳) and sulfur dioxide (二氧孑匕^ 1) in the air dropped an average of more than 30 percent. The amount of lead dropped 70 percent. Today you can go outside to "get a breath of fresh air" in more and more places in the U. S.

D. All the above.
( ) 7. What does the underlined word "invisible" mean?
A. Unseen. B. Not able to be smelt.
C. Not able to be heard. D. Not able to be tasted.

B. Acid rain is only dangerous to people or animals.
C. Acid rain also does harm to the buildings.
D. Both A and C.
( ) 9. How much did the amount of lead in the air drop from 1975 to 1984?

This spring,I started a wild flower garden in my yard. I could look out of the kitchen window and saw the flowers while doing the dishes. I often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditch would look great in my garden. Every day,I drove past the flowers,thinking, "I'll stop on my way home and dig them,but I don't want to get my good clothes dirty. " Whatever the reason,I never stopped to dig them.

After 21 years of marriage,my wife wanted me to take another woman out to dinner and see a movie. She said, "I love you,but I know this other woman loves you too,and she would love to spend some time with you."
The other woman that my wife wanted me to visit was my mother,who has been a widow (寡婦) for 19 years. But my busy work and my three children had made it impossible to visit her often.
