Read the passage then answer the following questions:

"I will think of it."It is easy to say this; but do you know what great things have come from thinking? We can not see our thouhts, or hear, or taste, or feel them;and yet what mighty power they have! Sir Isac Newton was seated in his garden on a summer's evning, when he saw an appe fall from a tree. He began to think, and, in trying to find out why the apple fell, discoveed how the earth, sun, moon, and stars are kept in their places. A boy named James Watt sat quitly by the firside, watching the lid of the tea kette as it moved up and down. He began to think; he wanted to find out why the steam in the kettle moved the heavy lid. From that time he went on thinking and thinking; and when he became a man, he improved the steam engine so much that it could, with the greatest ease, do the work of many horses. When you see a steamboat, a steam mill, or alocomotive, remember that it would never have been built if it had not been for the hard thinking of someone. A man named Galileo was once standing in the cathedral of Pisa, when he saw a chandelier swaying to and fro. This set him thinking, and it led to the invention of thependulum. James Ferguson was a poor Scotch shepherd boy. Once, seeing the inside of a watch, he was filled with wonder. "Why should I not make a watch?" thought he. But how was he to get the materials out of which to make the wheels and the mainspring? He soon found how to get them: he made the mainspring out of a piece of whalebone. He then made a wooden clock which kept good time. He began, also, to copy pictures with a pen, and portraits with oil colors. In a few years, while still a small boy, he earned money enough to support his father. When he became a man, he went to London to live. Some of the wisest men in England, and the king himself, used to attend his lectures. His motto was, "I will think of it;" and he made his thoughts useful to himself and the world.When you have a difficult lesson to learn, don't feel discouraged, and ask someone to help you before helping yourselves.Think, and by thinking you will learn how to think to some purpose.

1. What is the main idea of this passage?

A/Great geniuses didn't have to think.

B/We should always think.

C/Isaac Newton was a thinker.

D/Galileo was a thinker.

2. What caused Galileo to invent the pendulum?

A/Seeing a cathedral.

B/Thinking about apples.

C/Seeing a chandelier swing and thinking.

D/Thinking about gravity.

3. Why did the king attend James Ferguson's lectures?

A/Because Ferguson taught about pendulums. B/Because Ferguson was a brilliant thinker. C/Because the king was jealous of Ferguson's intelligence. D/Because Ferguson was an entertaining speaker. 4.How is Galileo similar to Isaac Newton?

AThey were born at the same time. BThey have nothing in common. CThey are both great thinkers. DThey both discovered gravity. 5.Why did James Ferguson decide to make a watch?

A/Because he was curious after seeing the inside of a watch. B/Because the king asked him to. C/Because he needed to support his sick father and mother. D/Because he was poor and needed the money.

PROBLEMS WITH A FRIEND

Susie Williams has been my best friend ever since we were being at primary school together, and last week she told me some good news. She had decided not to marry with her boyfriend. They had been going out together for about two years, and got engaged last Christmas. I was never happy about their relationship, as I thought so that he was not the right partner for her. I always felt that if they had of got married, she would have completely lost her independence because he would have to made her give up her studies and stay at home all the day. Susie would have hated that, as I know that she is a very ambitious person, but when I was mentioned it to her she became quite angry, saying that I was jealous her, and wanted him for myself. Sometimes it isn't easy being a best friend.

Hi everyone, my name is An and i came from class 8c. Today I will talk about the

gadgets of the internet today

The Internet is growing and becoming a part of everyday life. No one can deny the benefits that the internet brings. I agree that the Internet is the most useful media today.

First, the Internet is a very useful tool

. We can get information on every aspect very quickly and conveniently. We can read e-books or check weather conditions. Through the internet, we can look at the prices of certain consumer goods.

Second, the Internet is a source of entertainment. We can watch a movie, listen to recent music albums, play games, read novels, ....

Finally, the Internet is an educational medium. We can learn foreign languages, look up information. We can attend online courses. Internet is almost an unlimited educational resource for you to get.

Today, the Internet is a highly effective tool for communication, information gathering and collaboration among remote locations. Millions of people around the world are using the Internet to communicate, share information, create new associations, and so on.

The downside is that the Internet can be addictive. Some people can not live without it. They have no real friends and when the Internet is down, they are angry.

Internet has some rivals but more and more people handle the Internet like phone, or radio. They use it to have fun and work, and I think living now without internet would be quite difficult.

But try to use the internet effectively.

I would like to end here, I hope everyone comments and comments to my rhetoric today is more perfect

I remember that when I was in 5th grade, my class was good at studying, reacted aggressively in all activities of the school so it was very popular with teachers and friends. In grade 5, the exam that we are most interested in is the excellent student exam. I have chosen to send gold to send the task of taking good students. I have to say I was proud and proud to do so. And I know that besides me, there is no one qualified to take this exam. At that time, I was a smug little girl, always thought I was good and despise the people around. Ms. Thu enthusiastically study for me, I also try my best to study under the guidance of her.

Two days before the exam I allowed myself to rest for the day with the most comfortable spirit. I am very confident in what I have learned. On the day of the competition everyone happy to wish me success, won high. I completed the excellent essay for Literature, but Mathematics was a terrible failure. The best thing I can do is not to do it, because I volunteered to ignore it because I thought it was too simple to put on a good student exam. I lost my spirits from that moment, suddenly all the knowledge in my head flew away, I can not remember anything anymore. Even if I try my best, I can not regain my composure. And then I knew that I would not get any awards in this competition. Every wish, expectation of everyone or myself, all the smoke.

I step out of the examination room with a somber face, I do not want to meet anyone, just want to hide all the most is Ms. Thu who dedicatedly told me. I still remember as she wrote: "Whatever form of paper, whether hard or easy you must also scrutinize, do not subject yourself to any offline," she repeats it over and over again. many times. However, just because of the subjectivity, just because of arrogance, self-thinking good giang has made every hope of her break. I know how to face her, tell her how disappointing results this time.

The next day I always tried to avoid her, I was afraid to face, to explain to her, I was afraid to look her sad eyes. But I could not avoid it, that day, when she finished school she called me back to class. It was a talk that I would never forget the words she said later, the words she taught:

- Yesterday, she received the results of the excellent student exam, the subject children do very well by 9 points, but Math is too bad. I know your exam this time is not good since you left the examination room. But can you tell me why, math is so bad? She knows how good she is, she believes she can do well. So that…

"Your child, your child did not review you part ... I ... I ... really sorry for you. I am very angry with myself. Angry because of subjective self, has made her and everyone disappointed, ...

I sobbed, sorry for you, to say that my heart felt so much lighter. Listening to my words, she patted her shoulders lightly, hugging me to say,

- Keep your daughter quiet. Every one of us has been wrong, everybody has stumbled. The most important thing is self-perception and modification. I hope this will be a lesson that you will remember forever, so that whatever you do, whether large or small, you need to be careful, careful not to be subjective. Because just a minute of subjective, the consequences will not be unexpected.

I listened attentively as I swallowed her words. That was the first time I realized that just because a minute of negligence, your subjectivity affects so many people. It has happened for a long time but it will be a lesson for me: in anything that is not subjective, careful, meticulous, effort, try not stop.
