The coffee shop Starbucks will give people a discount if they bring their own cups. It wants to cut down on the number of paper cups that are put in the rubbish bins. It is part of a two-month experiment in cafes in England. Starbucks wants to reduce waste and recycle more, The president of Starbucks in the UK said, "We are very happy to increase recycling rates(比率)，and reusable cups are a key part of our waste reduction plan." Bosses will decide later if they will continue the discounts. People who bring their own cups will not get a discount on the cafe's cheaper filter coffee.
The problem of paper cups has been in the news a lot. Around seven million cups are thrown away every day. Reporters say that some cafes lie about how many paper cups they recycle. The reporters say the cafes do not recycle as many cups as they say. Customers wrongly believe that a coffee shop is environmentally friendly. Less than one in 400 paper cups at coffee shops are recycled. A coffee drinker said she would bring her own cup. She said, "I am so sad that cafes recycle so little. I thought they were more responsible."

Raising chickens seems a difficult task for teenagers. Gracie Goodpasture, from Virginia, US, not only raises them, but also tries to breed (喂養(yǎng)) the “perfect chicken”. And she even won an award for her love of science.
Gracie started breeding chickens in her third grade at Steward School. At first, she worked on some farms for her school project. But later, the 14-year-old started to have some ideas of her own.
“Some have thicker eggshells (蛋殼),and they’re hearty (健壯的) throughout the winter,” said Grade.
Since then, the young science lover started to try to find the healthiest free-range (散養(yǎng)) chickens. And she ended up breeding a type that now bears her name.
The National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) gave the 2015 Angela Award to Gracie Goodpasture. Her interests don’t end with chickens and eggs. She is also into building robots and testing preservatives (防腐劑) in fast foods. In her words, she wants to go to Virginia Tech for poultry (家禽) sciences in the future.
1.Where is Gracie from?
2.In which grade did Gracie start breeding chickens?
3.What did Gracie find about some chickens’ eggshells?
4.When did NSTA give the Angela Award to Gracie?
5.Why does Gracie want to go to Virginia Tech in the future?

Two men were sitting together in an airplane. They were on a long journey. One of the men was a teacher. The other was a cook.
They sat without talking for a while, then the cook said, “Let’s do something to pass the time.”
“What do you want to do?” the teacher asked. “We can ask each other riddles (謎語),” the cook said, “You start.”
“Let’s make the rules first,” the teacher said. “To make the game more interesting, we play it for money. If we don’t know the answer to a riddle, we have to pay a dollar.”
The cook thought about it and said, “That’s not fair (公平的). You are a teacher, an educated man. You know more things than I do. I am just a cook.”
“That’s true,” the teacher said, “What’s your suggestion?” “If you don’t know the answer to a riddle, you need to pay me $100. If I don’t know the answer to a riddle, I’ll pay you $50.” the cook said.
Thinking for a while, the teacher said, “OK. That’s fair. Who’ll go first?”
“I will,” the cook said. “Here is my riddle. What has three legs when it walks, but only two legs when it flies?”
The teacher repeated the riddle, “What has three legs when it walks, but only two legs when it flies? Mm, that’s a good one. I’m afraid I don’t know the answer.”
