One midnight， a little girl woke up to go to the bathroom. She got up and down her bed， walked to the bedroom door and opened it. She looked outside and walked back， because it was so dark that she was scared.

Her mother said， “Don’t be afraid， honey. Take courage!”

“What’s courage?” she asked， running to her mother’s bed.

“Courage is the brave breath，” her mother answered.

“Mum， do you have courage?”

“Certainly!”

The girl held out her hands， saying， “Mum， please blow some of your courage breath to me.”

After her mother blew out two mouthfuls of breath into her little cold hands， the little girl held her hands nervously ， afraid that the “breath of courage” would run away. Then， she walked out of her bedroom towards the bathroom with nothing to fear.

No one knows exactly when Jazz was invented， or by whom. But it is said that it began in the early 19th. Jazz was a new kind of music， for America and the world， and New Orleans was its birthplace.

Who were the jazz pioneers? Most were blacks. This music was not written down， and at first just blacks played it. It was difficult for white musicians to learn the new style. But soon they， too， were playing jazz.

The popularity of this music spread. From New Orleans， it traveled up the Mississippi to Chicago， then to Kansas City and New York. By the 1920s， there were many jazz musicians， both black and white. Many of them were famous. One man was better than the rest. His name was Louis Armstrong.

Louis Armstrong was a born musician. He was not only talented but also hard-working. He also had a good sense of humor and a big， warm smile. These personal qualities were valuable in his rise to fame. After he became well-known， he went around the world. It seemed that everyone wanted to hear Louis play. But life was not always easy， especially at the beginning.

Louis Armstrong was born in 1900 in New Orleans. His father never went to school and his mother could hardly read. When Louis was still a little kid， his parents separated， and Louis lived with his mother. How hard their life was can be imagined. And yet Louis smiled through everything. He later wrote， “My whole life has been happiness. Life was there for me and I accepted it. Whatever happened has been beautiful to me. I love everybody.”

For many kids in Africa， the colorful PlayPump(踏水車）is the first playground thing they have ever seen. When the children give it a push and jump in for their first ride， smiles of wonder appears on their faces.

The fun of going round and round in a circle is just part of the wonder. The wonderful invention doesn’t only change the kids’ play time， but also makes a big difference to the people’s lives.

As the merry-go-round starts， it pumps(泵送）clean water up from deep underground and keeps it in a huge tank(桶）. People are welcomed to come and help themselves to get the water for free. They are very happy these days.

In the countryside of Africa， very few people could drink clean water. They don’t have machines that can get water in their homes. Instead， they often walk a long way to carry water back.

Patricia Molope， a fifteen-year-old girl， explains that before her village in South Africa got a PlayPump， people would pay a taxi driver to take them to a well far from their homes. “ Sometimes the taxi drivers were so busy that we would have to stop taking showers in order to save water. It was so far to walk there， but at present we have our own clean water in the village， and the life is better， too.”

The hard job of carrying water usually is done by women and girls. Carrying water for miles and hours each day is such a heavy job that it sometimes prevents girls from being able to go to school.

Thanks to the PlayPump， getting water is quicker and easier-----and even boys join in. The pumps have become a new activity. Kids and adults seem to love playing with them while collecting water.

A boy named Khumalo， twelve years old， says， “ I have seen many kinds of water pumps， but have never seen one that can keep water. When I grow up， I want to be an inventor so I can also invent clever things like the PlayPump that will help my country.”

So far， more than 800 PlayPumps are being operated in schools and neighborhoods in four African countries， providing water for almost two million people.

1.To get water from a PlayPump， people need to ______________.

A. walk for a long way B. push it first

C. make it in a circle D. use a big tank

2.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to____________

C. PlayPump D. underground

3.For Patricia Molope， getting water used to be hard because____________

A. She didn’t know how to use a PlayPump.

B. She had no money to pay a taxi driver.

C. The only place to get water was far away from home.

D. There was not enough water in the well.

4.Which of the following is NOT TRUE about PlayPump?

A. People need to pay for the clean water from PlayPump.

B. Both children and parents enjoy the ride on PlayPump.

Black Friday is a great time for shopping. However， there are problems. 3.________________. Each store has only a few， so the goods are in great need and people stand in long lines to get them.

This situation makes people worried. Some Black Friday events have been crazy. There have been fights over toys among shoppers. Some workers have been hurt by large crowd. 4.____________. Still， if you want to go， you will expect large crowds and a bit of pushing.

So where does the name “Black Friday” come from? It was first used in Philadelphia in the 1950s. The police called this day Black Friday because of the heavy traffic it caused. In the 1960s， stores tried to change the name into “Big Friday”. It didn’t stick. The name “ Black Friday” continued to spread across the country. It seems that it is here to stay. 5.____________.
