New York is the biggest city of the USA. A long time ago, it was called Lenapehoking. In 1626, Dutch people bought the land for only ＄24! They called it New Amsterdam. Then in 1664, the British took it over and changed the name to New York.
New York had an excellent harbour(港口). Many people from all over the world came by sea and landed in New York. These people wanted a better life. New York seemed to give them that. By 1835, New York became the largest city in the United States. New York City used to have five smaller towns but now they are all part of the same city. They are Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island.
Today, New York is home to millions of people from all over the world. These different cultures make New York an exciting place to visit. There's much to do in New York. You can take a helicopter(直升飞机)riding through the city, ride horses in Central Park, see a movie in the afternoon and watch the sunset(日落)over the Brooklyn Bridge. Don't worry if you get hungry. Some restaurants are open 24 hours a day!

Do you have a mobile phone? Do you send text messages to your friends and family?
Text messaging or “texting” is becoming very popular. But, scientists have discovered that texting can give us problems with our hands. Be careful! Too much texting can cause swelling in our thumbs. Our thumbs were not made for pushing small buttons over and over again. Scientists call this problem RSI. We spoke to a doctor called Harriet Wilson, who treats many sick people
with RSI. She says we need to see how much time we are spending in typing text messages. If we are spending more than 10 - 15 minutes at once, we could have problems in the future.
As mobile phones develop, they are getting smaller with buttons closer together. Texting with a smaller phone is worse than using a larger phone with bigger buttons. Using a computer keyboard and playing video games can cause the same problem. So more and more people could find themselves with RSI. Among them, most are university students and teenagers, as they do not know the risks of spending so much time using computer and mobile phones or playing video games. If we don’t do something about this, too many young people could grow up in terrible pain.
1. What is becoming very popular now according to the passage? ___________________________________________________ 2. Does the word “once” mean “one time” in the second passage? ___________________________________________________ 3. What kind of people are easier to have the problem of RSI? ___________________________________________________ 4. What can also cause RSI except texting?

5. Which is easier to cause the problem of RSI, using smaller mobile phones or larger ones? ___________________________________________________

If you think you are too shy and want to be a little bit braver, just try the following things. Be open to others. Tell people you are shy. There is no need to hide it. When they get to know you are a shy kid, they will understand you better. This also helps you feel more comfortable in talks.
Try to smile more. When you smile , people think you are friendly and easy to talk with. Remember that other people have feelings, too; and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.
Learn to be a good talker. If you find it hard to start a conversation, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?
Get your attention elsewhere. Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t waste time worrying about your look or whether people like you or not. You will become relaxed and find it’s not so hard to talk with others.
Take one small step at a time. Each time when you say “Hi!” or smile at someone, say to yourself “You can make it.” Keep trying and one day you’ll never feel shy when you talk to others.
