On February 3rd，1949，New York Harbor（港） was an exciting place．Many people were there to greet a ship from France．On the ship were 49 French railroad boxcars（火車車箱） filled with gifts from the people of France to the people of America．These boxcars were from the famous Merci Train（Merci：a French word meaning "thank you"）．

After World War II （二戰），a lot of factories，roads and farms in France had been destroyed．Many French people had no jobs or money and had little to wear and little to eat．In the winter of 1947，a train was sent across the United States，stopping in cities and towns along the way．At every stop，people gave whatever they could．Factories gave clothing and medicine．Farmers gave food．Families gave money．Even school children gave away their pocket money（零用錢）．All the things were then taken to France by ship．

By 1949，the French had begun to recover（恢復） from the war．The Merci Train was their way of saying "thank you" to America．French people had filled the boxcars with gifts．Most of them were personal，like hand-made toys，children's drawings，or postcards．But the boxcars  themselves were perhaps  the most meaningful of the gifts．On each car，the French people had painted the pictures of all their 40 provinces，with an American eagle on the front．The boxcars were taken to each state of America，where they were warmly greeted．

Now many of the states still keep their boxcars．Gifts sent by the French people can still be seen in some museums．The Merci Train came out of the war，but it now reminds the world that countries can also work together in peace（和平）．

On April 9，2010，a solar-powered plane successfully made its first flight．It flew at a speed of 70 km/h at a height of 1，200 meters in the sky above Switzerland for 87 minutes．It is the first solar-powered plane in the world．A group of engineers，led by Bertrand Piccard，a well-known pilot，made this plane．

The solar-powered plane is different from the planes that we usually see．The' plane has a thin body with two very big wings full of solar cells．It uses sunlight as its energy, but it was not easy to make such a plane．First of all，Bertrand Piccard and his group members had to find out how to get energy from the sun．They used 12，000 solar cells to catch the sunlight．Then they had to find a good way to store it．They used special batteries to store the energy．What's more，the plane should be light enough so that it would not use too much power．It should also be strong enough to hold its body to fly in the sky．They used the strongest and lightest materials" to build the plane．It weighed 1，600 kg and only needed the power of a small car．

After this successful flight，Bertrand Piccard said，"The airplane has landed but we have not yet landed．"Their next step is to have a non-stop flight around the world by 2013．Before they can do that，they will have to work out how the plane can store enough energy during the day and keep flying at night．Also，the team will have to watch the weather closely to make sure the plane can fly．

1．How long did the solar-powered plane fly in the sky on April 9，2010?

A．9 minutes．                                            B．70 minutes．

C．87 minutes．                                          D．1，200 minutes．

2．Where is the energy of the solar-powered plane from?

A．The sun．                  B．Air．              C．The moon．      D．Wind．

3．The first solar-powered plane weighed _______

A．1，200 kg                                            B．1，600 kg

C．12，000 kg                                                 D．16，000 kg

4．When can the solar-powered plane take a non-stop flight around the world?

A．When it is light enough to fly in the sky．

B．When it is strong enough to hold its body to fly in the sky．

C．When it looks different from the planes that we usually see．

D．When it can store enough energy during the day and keep flying at night．

I had been a happy girl until one day when I was fifteen months old．One of my eyes was badly hurt in an accident．I lost the sight of the eye，with an ugly scar l * around it．

Children refused to play games with me．It made me very sad．I always walked ，looking at the floor ，so that people would not see the ugly face．My mother encouraged me to be brave．She told me，"Alice ，hold your head up high and face the world．If you do ，it will be OK ，and people will see your beautiful soul *．"Mom's words meant different things to me over the years．

As a little child，I thought Morn meant，"Be careful or you will fall down．"When I grew up，I still wanted to look down to hide my shame．She repeated these words whenever I wanted to hide．Mom's words helped me realize that I should look at people in the eye and let them know me．When I tried，I found people were friendly to me．

In high school，I worked hard at my lessons and succeeded in my studies．Everybody began to like me and I had some friends．However，I still felt sorry about my scar，my ugly face．Sometimes when things got really bad，I would cry to my mom．She was always there for me．She would look at me and said，" Hold your head up high and face the world．Let them see the beauty that is inside．"I became confident" ．

At university，I took part in all kinds of activities．I joined a music club．We held concerts to raise money to help poor children．The club became so famous and I had more friends．Then John，a popular musician，came into my life．He didn't mind the scar．We soon fell in love with each other．Two years later，we got married．

My mother's words have been encouraging me to face my problems bravely and believe in myself．

World Book Day falls on April 23 every year．It was set up by the UNESCO* in 1995 to encourage people，especially teenagers，to discover the pleasure of reading．It is also the day to honor great writers，for example，William Shakespeare，born or dead on that day．

Many countries celebrate World Book Day．Take UK as an example．On that day，millions of schoolchildren can buy books of special price，a much lower price than usual，in any bookstore．It has been done every year since 1998．World Book Day is also celebrated in China．Wen Jiabao，Premier of China，is an avid reader．He does lots of reading every day though he is very busy．On World Book Day 2009，he called on people to do more reading．Wen suggested that young people should spend more time reading．"Books can not change the world，but people can change the world by changing themselves through reading，" he said．

Reading can benefit people in many ways．Reading helps us become more knowledge- able and more intelligent．Reading helps us to follow the latest developments of science and technology．Reading gives us information about other cultures and places of the world．When we read，we may find many things that are unfamiliar* to us．We would have to use our brain to think about them or do more reading to find out the answers．The more we read，the more we know．The more we know，the smarter we become．Reading is also one of the most important ways to learn a foreign language like English．We all know that it is difficult to learn everything in the classroom，for example，the ways English people are speaking and writing today．Reading helps us．
