Passage 1

"Atoms are all around us. They are the bricks of which everything is made. Many millions of atoms are contained in just one grain of salt，but despite their small size they are very important. The way an everyday object behaves depends on what kinds of atoms are in it and how they act.

For instance，you know that most solid objects melt if they get hot enough. Why is this? It is the effect of the heat on the object's atoms. All atoms move constantly. When they are hot，they move faster.

Usually the atoms in an object hold together and give the object its shape. But if the object grows hot，its atoms move so fast that they break the force that usually holds them together. They move out of their usual places so that the object loses its shape. Then we say that the object is melting.

46. One grain of salt contains a few thousand atoms. (   )

47. The way an object behaves depends on the kinds of atoms in it and the way its atoms behave. (   )

48. Heating an object will affect the shape of the atom. (   )

Passage 2

"Billy is 14 years old and in the ninth grade. He has a part-time job which gets him up every morning at 5 o'clock. He is a newspaper boy. Each morning，Billy leaves the house at 5:15 to go to the corner，where the newspapers are. The newspapers are delivered to the corner by truck at midnight. He always takes a wagon to carry them.

In the winter, it is still dark when he gets up，but during the rest of the year it is light. Billy must deliver the newspapers to the houses of people on his route in all kinds of weather. He tries to put each paper on the porch (门廊) where it will be protected from wind and rain or snow. His customers think he does a good job. Sometimes they give him tips (小费).

Billy earns about $ 70 per month，and he is saving some of the money to go to college. He spends the rest on records and clothes. Once a month，he has to collect money from his customers. Since many of them work during the day，Billy has to collect the money at night. Sometimes，when Billy is sick，his brother has to deliver the newspapers. Once，Billy's father had to help. Billy has seventy customers now，but he hopes to get more soon. Someday，if he gets more customers，Billy might win a prize for being an outstanding (突出的) newspaper boy.
