On a hot summer day, ice-cold watermelons serve up a delicious treat. Sure, the rosy flesh (果肉) quenches your thirst (解渴). But now there are more reasons than ever for people to reach for a slice of watermelon.

Meet Dr Alison Edwards. She is a scientist at the Agricultural Research Service. Scientists are people who come up with new ideas called theories (理論). They usually do scientific research to test their new theories. That’s how they find out if a new idea is a good one, or if the new idea will bring an even better idea.

At her lab, Dr Edwards recently learned more about the secrets of why watermelons are good for you!

Dr Edwards has known for a long time that watermelons have vitamin C. But recently she learned that watermelons also have lycopene (番茄紅素). It is something that gives tomatoes and watermelons their rosy red colour.

Dr Edwards says that watermelons and tomatoes both have lots of lycopene. It seems that your body can use the lycopene from watermelons more easily than the lycopene from raw (生的) tomatoes. In fact, the lycopene from tomatoes is more easily absorbed (吸收) inside your body once they have been cooked.

Do you know Roma people?They were called Gypsies (吉普賽人) by Europeans. Because they thought they came from Egypt (a country in Africa).About a thousand years ago, the Roma people left their homeland. They are known as nomads because for hundreds of years many of them have lived in large groups that travel from place to place. They have no real homeland.

Today, the Roma are now living all over the world._______________(他們保留了他們的語言和風(fēng)俗) For example, it’s important for Roma to marry other Roma. It's also a custom for parents to choose the person their children will marry. Roma people get married when they are young, sometimes even as young as 14.

Romany is the language of the Roma people, which was written down only recently. Because the Roma are nomadic and have moved all over the world, their language has developed in many different ways. It is sometimes hard for Roma in one part of the world to understand Roma from another part.

Roma music is famous all over the world, because many Roma throughout history have been musicians. Their music has influenced many other kinds of music, like classical and jazz.

Roma don't usually assimilate (同化) into host countries. Over many centuries, governments have forbidden them to marry each other, travel or wear their traditional bright clothes. They have their gold taken away from them—treasures (財(cái)富) from their parents and grandparents. They have been taken as slaves (奴隸),and have been forced to change their names.

But today, the Roma are finding ways to live in peace with others while keeping the treasures of their culture.“There's a will within us to continue to live as a people,”says George Kaslov,whose family arrived in New York from Russia a hundred years ago.“All the other ethnic (種族) groups who came to America assimilate gradually with time going;they lose their customs and language. But not the Roma. We hold out.”

1.Why were Roma people called Gypsies (吉普賽人) by Europeans?

2.把文中括號(hào)部分翻譯成英語。_______________________________________________.

3.把文中劃線部分翻譯成漢語.________________________________________________.

4.Do Roma people have no real homeland?________________________

A.Brave Roma Travelers

B.Famous Roma Music
