Dear students,
Most of us get some exercise walking or riding our bikes to school, but that just isn?t enough. Why not get into shape by playing the most popular sport in the world — soccer?
Two weeks ago, Mr. Goldstein, the physical education teacher, posted a notice about an exciting new soccer club (for Grades 3-5). To join, all you have to do is sign your name and be at school for the fun of it on Saturday mornings. You?ll make new friends and share information about famous teams and players
Mr. Goldstein will teach, so you?ll learn basic skills and new techniques(技巧)to improve your game. That?s good news because soccer is a game you can love three seasons a year. The only time you can?t play is when there is snow.
However, it is hard to believe that only nineteen people signed up for the new club. Maybe kids don?t want to give up their Saturday mornings. But if you think about how we spend Saturday mornings now, soccer looks good. Doing housework and watching TV are not as much fun as playing soccer with friends. If you didn?t sign up because you?ve never played soccer before, don?t worry. Beginners are welcome and Ms. Goldstein will give you more help.
Just act now! The equipment is cheap. All you have to bring is your feet.

In August 2001, they had a lovey son, whom they named Eja. After September 11, Shania decided to spend more time on her family and stayed at home until the fall of 2002. Her reappearance in the music world put her face on magazine covers and country music publications. She also began to promote(宣传) her new CD, Up, on TV shows. 24. According to the text, Shania

Clover, a three-year-old spirit bear, lives at the B.C. Wildlife Park near Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada. He lost his parents two years ago and was raised at a wildlife center. When he was set free into the wild, he broke into human camps looking for food. Wildlife experts tried to get him used to living on his own, but he continued to look for places where there were people. Finally the experts decided that he could not live in the wild. Since then, a total of $750,000 has been collected to create a habitat for Clover.
The habitat covers about three acres (英亩) of land and includes natural forest, two ponds connected by a small river and something else. It will add a platform and a walkway later this year so that people can see Clover and his habitat more closely. There will also be a center where people can learn more about spirit bears. Besides, a black bear will be moved into the habitat so Clover will not feel lonely.
Spirit bears are also called Kermode bears after Francis Kermode, who first studied them. Kermode discovered that a small number of black bears carry a gene(基因)for white fur. If a baby bear receives one of these genes from each parent, its fur will be a creamy white color.

There are about 1,200 bears who carry the gene for white fur, but only about 200 white Kermode bears in the world. Kermode bears are found only in British Columbia.

more than 500,000 websites, pictures and videos. The idea for KidZui came about when one of the founders, Vidar Vignisson, saw how difficult it was for his children to enjoy the power and promise of the Internet in a safe way. Together with Cliff Boro and Thomas Broadhead, they decided to do something.
KidZui was first tested by 8,000 kids and their parents. Lisa Rebena, a parent whose child tested KidZui, said, “My 4-year-old gets into KidZui, reads news and watches videos all by herself, generally doing what she pleases. I?m much more relaxed now when my daughter is on the computer.
Content (内容)in KidZui has been reviewed by a team of more than 200 trained teachers and parents. They make sure that kids see content that is proper for their age in terms of developmental level and reading ability. New websites, pictures and videos are added to
