many things with them. They had planned either to live in a furnished apartment (家具齐全的公寓) or to buy

and so on) has become one of America"s fastest growing business.
What kinds of people rent their home furnishings instead of buying them? Many kinds of people:
international businessmen,government officers, airline workers, young married couples--the people whose jobs

cost of moving their furniture each time. They simply rent new furniture when they reach their new home.

prefer to wait until they have enough money to buy furniture they really like. Meanwhile (另一方面), they

TEPETITAN, EL SALVADOR- Evinor Mira is only sixteen years old, but he is working as hard as an
adult man to help his family get a good house. Evinor lives with his mother and his little brother and sister in
Tepetitan, EL Salvador. His father is dead, and the family is very poor. Their house is a small one of mud
(泥土) and sticks, so Evinor is working with an organization called Habitat for Humanity to build a new home.
Habitat for Humanity helps people who need houses but do not have much money. Each family buys the
house through monthly payments (每月付款). Their payments help build more houses because banks can then
lend money to other families. Habitat for Humanity volunteers help to build the house, but the families must do
a lot of the work themselves.
Every morning, Evinor begins at 7:00. He and the volunteer workers from Habitat carry boards (木板),
pound nails (敲钉子), and pour concrete (混凝土) all day, six days a week. The other workers can go home
and rest at 4:00 p.m., but Evinor"s day isn"t over. He rides on a bus for forty minutes to go to school in another
town. He is in high school and attends classes for four hours every evening. At 9:00 p.m. he has to walk two
and a half hours to get home because there aren"t any buses so late at night. Around 11:30 p.m. he arrives
home and does his homework. On Sundays, Evinor works with the Habitat organization to help other families
get houses, too.
Evinor does not have the easy life of many teenagers, but he doesn"t mind working so hard. He is proud
that he can help his own family and others in his community (社区) to have better lives.

3. People who need houses can _______ banks.
4. Evinor has to go to school in the evening because _______.

attract 1 tourists to the island.
Hawaii has been a magical name to people who like to travel 2 many years. People on 3 side of the
Pacific Ocean (太平洋), in Japan and in America, dream of 4 these beautiful islands in the middle of the
ocean. In the tropical (热带的) lands, the sun drops like a ball of golden fire into the sea, and it drops so 5
that you can almost see it move.The sun leaves behind a glow (落日余辉) that lights the sky in the quiet
water.
People often have a quiet, enjoyable time walking along the water. This scenery is not very different from
the exciting beauty that greeted the first tourists to these islands centuries ago. They came in canoes not much
6 than small boats.
They found the beautiful white sand beaches and the waving palm trees (棕榈树), but there were no grand
hotels like 7 we see today. The first people came to Hawaii nearly 8 years ago, but skyscraper (摩天大楼)
hotels were only built in the last 25 years. Now aeroplanes make it possible to fly to Hawaii for a weekend from
Tokyo 9 San Francisco.
10 people come from, they really want to see the earliest beauty of Hawaii. They want to see the lovely
beaches and the mountains which are almost hidden by the tall hotels.

| Do people in your country hug and kiss on the street? In some countries, it is common for people to show affection (喜爱) in public places. In the United States, for example, we often see couples hold hands, hug or kiss on the street, in the park, in restaurants, and even on trains and buses! However, in some other countries, people never show affection in public places because their customs don"t allow this. For example, in China and Korea, custom doesn"t allow people to do so in public. So, when Chinese and Korean people visit the United States, they often feel very surprised and shocked when they see Americans hug and kiss on the street.

In Italy and Russia, male friends often kiss each other on both cheeks when they greet. In most countries, men don"t kiss or hug when they greet another.
