The first great invention was one that is still very important today- the wheel. This made it easier to carry heavy things and to travel long distances.For hundreds of years after that there were few inventions that had as much effect as the wheel. Then in the early 1800s the world started to change. There was little unknown land left in the world. People didn't have to explore(探测)much any more. They began to work instead to make life better.In the second half of the 19th century many great inventions were made. Among them were the camera, the light and the radio. These all became a big part of our life today.The first part of the 20th century saw more great inventions. The helicopter in 1909. Movies with sound in 1926. The computer in 1928. And jet planes in 1930. This was also a time when a new material was first made. Nylon came in 1935. It changed the kind of clothes people wear.By this time most people had a very good life, Man has a desire to explore again, The world was known to man but the stars were not. Man began looking for ways to go into space. Russia made the first step. Then the United States took a step. Since then other countries, including China and Japan , have made their steps into space.In 1969 man took his biggest step from the earth. Americans first walked on the moon.

But his income for 2008 was far more than that, according to the White House.The White House recently published the tax returns of Obama and vice-president Joe Biden. Tax returns are reports of tax a person has to pay. They often include income information used to calculate （计算）the tax. In the US, people whose incomes are over a certain amount have to file （申请）tax returns every year. The tax returns of government officials are open to the public. This transparency （透明）helps to prevent corruption （腐败）.From Obama's tax returns, we can see that the president and first lady Michelle made about $2.66 million in 2008.Most of the money came from the sales of the president's two books Dreams From My Father, and The Audacity of Hope （无畏的梦想）.The two books, published in 1995 and 2006, are very popular and have been on the bestseller （畅销书） list for a long time.The Obamas' income（收入）is down from 2007, when they made $4.2 million. However, that is still far more than former US president George W. Bush earned, who reported a total of $719,274 for his final year. The Obamas* income also greatly exceeded （超过）that of Biden, who reported a family income of $269,256. That's about a tenth of what the Obamas earned. As vice-president, Biden earns a salary of $220,000. US families earn an average income of about $50,000.The Obamas1 tax returns also show that together, the president and his wife paid about $933,000 in taxes. They gave $172,050 - nearly 6.5 percent of their earnings 一 to different charity groups. In the US, if a person gives his money to churches and non-profit （非盈利的）organizations, the law reduces his or her taxes. This is one reason rich people in the US like to give to charity.（）1.had the highest family income in 2008.A. Obama B. Biden C. Bush D. Michelle（）2. What are tax returns?A.

Every morning, she leaves home at half past five to get clean water for her family in a village far away. It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily cooking and drinking. She has no time to go to school or to play with her friends. Millions of people in the world are like Napoga. They can't get enough clean water to keep healthy.Earth Day is April 22. But on all other days, we must also remember it. The water we use is the most important natural resource (自然资源)on the earth.Water covers 70% of the earth's surface. But most of that is sea water. We can't use it for very many things. Fresh water covers only 1% of the earth's surface.You probably feel lucky that your life isn't as hard as Napoga's. But that doesn't mean you don't have to worry about water. We all face serious water problems. One of them is water pollution. All kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers， lakes, and oceans dirty. Polluted water is very bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish, too. Now, 34% of all kinds of fish are dying out.How do cars and factories make our water dirty? First, they pollute the air. Then, when it rains, the rain water comes down and makes our drinking water dirty. Dirty rain, called acid rain (酸雨)，is also bad for plants, animals and buildings.Scientists say that in 30 years, more than half of the people in the world won't have enough clean water. We have to learn how to save more water for ourselves and our children. Here is some advice for saving water：Turn off the water while you brush your teeth. You can save as much as 450 liters (升)each month.Leaky taps (漏水的龙头)waste a lot of water. Fix them right away!You can easily cut your 10-minute showers (沐浴)in half-and you'll be just as clean.When you wash dishes, don't let the water run.Only wash clothes when you have a lot to wash.

There was a fleet parade （舰艇检阅）in Qingdao. Twenty-one naval ships from 14 countries took part in the celebration.The Chinese naval ships and weapons are all the work of Chinese engineers. Some of them are new. Others have already served for some time. Most of them were from the Beihai Fleet, with a few from the Donghai Fleet and Nanhai Fleet.China also displayed its nuclear powered submarines （核动力潜艇）for the first time. A nuclear submarine can carry enough fuel （燃料）for it to operate （运彳亍）for up to 30 years. It carries advanced weapons （武器）and can stay underwater for 60 to 90 days. These abilities make the nuclear submarine one of the most useful of warships.The People's Liberation Army Navy was founded on April 23, 1949. However, for a long time, the navy has remained low-key （低调的）.They have been involved in few international naval affairs （海事事件）.This clearly does not match China's growing power. China has a long coastline （海岸线），many islands and large territorial waters （领海）,so it is important to develop a strong naval force. The naval parade showed China's confidence about the future of its navy.“The ocean is home to the navies of the world. It is the responsibility of every navy to protect it," Chinese navy commander Wu Shengli said at the opening ceremony （开幕式）.（）11.
