—Oh, he didn't mean to, but why is he always so careless?
"Oh, my God," said Mrs. Kim. "I don't think we will be able to do our lesson today." Children loved Mrs. Kim's science lessons. Josh asked, "Why not?" "Well," began Mrs. Kim, "I had planned to do some measuring today. But I forgot to bring any ruler. We can't measure anything without a ruler, can we?"
"What are we going to measure?" asked Mathew. "I want you to measure the distance from one side of the classroom to the other side." answered Mrs. Kim. "We could measure it as my dad sometimes does，" said C. J. "He sometimes just puts one foot in front of the other. I guess that's how we find out how long something is. "
"Let's see whether that will work，"said Mrs. Kim. "Why don't you see how many feet it takes to cross the room, C. J. ？"C. J. began walking from one side of the classroom to the other side. He put one foot down and then put the heel of the other foot at the toe of his first foot. He continued doing this until he crossed the room. "I counted thirty of my feet from one side to the other side, " C. J. said.
"So you think the room is thirty feet across？"asked Mrs. Jim. "I think someone else should try "said Maddie "just to make sure. ""All right，Maddie "said Mrs. Kim "why don't you try？"

If you have no special plans for your holidays, ⑶why not spend your time helping others?
Don't listen to people who say that young people today often think only of themselves. It's not true at all. More and more young people in the USA volunteer to spend their school holidays working for others. And they don't do it for money. Here are some of their stories.

I'm going to help the Forest Center build new hiking paths(小道)in the mountains. It's going to be fantastic-I will spend the whole summer living in a tent(帐篷)and breathing the clean mountain air. I'm going to sleep under the stars. It will be a nice experience, and I will be able to do something good at the same time!

This summer, I'll join in the Special House program. They build good, low-cost houses and sell them to families that are not very rich. They'll teach me what to do, so I am going to help people and also have a chance to learn how to build houses.
