Do you know any 9﹣year﹣olds who have started their own museums？When Theodore Roosevelt（罗斯福） was only nine，he and two of his cousins opened the "Roosevelt Museum of Natural History．"The museum was in Theodore's bedroom．It had a total of 12 specimens（标本）．On display were a few seashells，some dead insects and some birds' nests．Young Roosevelt took great pride in his small museum．
Born in New York in 1858，Theodore Roosevelt was not always healthy．"I was a sickly，delicate boy．"he once wrote．Roosevelt had a health condition called asthma（哮喘）．He often found it hard to breathe．Instead of playing，he observed（观察） nature and then read and wrote about it．
Roosevelt's interest in nature sometimes got him into trouble．Once，his mother found several dead mice in the icebox．She ordered him to throw them out．This was indeed "a loss to science，"Roosevelt said later．

In 1900，at the age of 41，Roosevelt was elected Vice President．A year later．President McKinley，was shot and killed．Roosevelt became the 26th President of the USA．At 42，he was the youngest leader the country had ever had．

Don't Worry! Be Happy!
If I were a bird．I'd fly up high，
Above the clouds，up in the sky．
I'd float and sing and soar and play，
Without any worries to ruin my day．
If I were a dolphin，I'd splash in the sea，
And dive and flip﹣great fun for me!
I'd play with friends under the sea so blue．
There'd be no chores or homework to do．
If I were a bear，I'd sleep all day，
And then wake up at night to play．
I'd fish and run and jump and climb，
With no one around to ruin my good time．
If I were a dog，daring the day I'd rest．
So when Master came home，I'd be at my best﹣
Ready to run or play balls or catch，
Ready to jump，roll over or fetch．
But I'm not a dog or a bird or a bear，
I'm not dolphin who can swim everywhere．
I'm just a kid who wants to have fun，
But I know I can't till my work's all
Word bank：
float v．漂浮 soar v．高飞
ruin v．毁灭 splash v．飞溅

My best friend Jenny and I got to the mall for shopping．She held up a white sweater and matching skirt．"Do you like this？"she asked．
"It's great，''I said．Jenny nodded and continued looking whiIe I moved about，touching the beautiful clothes．"I'll try this on．"Jenny walked towards the dressing room．After a while，she came out in the outfit（一套衣服）．She looked beautiful．
I sighed．Part of me wanted to say how good she looked．but another part stopped the words coming out．Jenny was in such good shape that she'd look good in the outfit．Sometimes，I regretted choosing a best friend who was so pretty．God，why can't I be the one with the rich parents and the great look？More and more，I was envious（妒忌的）of her．
"Well，Teresa，what do you think？"Jenny asked more than once．"Do you like it？''
The outfit looked great on her，but I lied，"Not really．I think you need something with more colors．''
"You think so？"Jenny said doubtfully．
"Just believe me．We'll find something better，"I told her，pushing her back into the dressing room．"You just can't buy the first thing you see．"I did my best to get Jenny out of the store，away from that outfit．As we left，Jenny gave the sweater one last look．
Just down the mall，we passed a yogurt place．"My treat，''Jenny said，pulling out her wallet．
I could never say no to chocolate，so we got some and sat down at a table．As Jenny talked without stopping about a million things，I thought about my feelings toward her．Those feelings weren't kind．
Sitting there， Jenny was attractive（吸引人的）not just because of her good luck，but more because of her kindness．Treating me to chocolate was far from her only show of generosity．She also let me drive her car and borrow her clothes．
Finishing our chocolate，we headed for the next clothing store．"Look at that red sweater．''Jenny said as we passed the window．"It would be perfect for you．Soon maybe you'll have enough by saving your babysitting money to buy something like that．"
A few minutes earlier，all I had heard was about saving my babysitting money．I had hated the fact that Jenny could ask her parents for anything，and they'd buy it for her．This time，though，I heard more．I heard the voice of someone who loved and cared me for who I was．I needed to express the same to her．

Think of a simple object﹣a piece of chalk，for example．Are you remembering its name，its shape，its color or its size？Are you remembering what it is used for，or the sound it makes when the teacher writes on the blackboard？Scientists say that memory includes different parts of the brain，such as language and the ability of sense．They believe that you begin to create a memory when you notice something with your senses．Then，messages are sent to different brain cells，which join together to form connections．A new connection goes into your short﹣term memory．It is stored there for about 30 seconds，and then it is either
lost or stored in your long﹣term memory．
Having a good memory means making lots of connections and storing them in your long﹣term memory．To do this，you need to keep your brain in good shape．Eat plenty of brain food such as fish oil，fruit and vegetables．Laughter also makes your brain more active．Also，don't forget to exercise．So do some sports or just move around a lot in the house．Finally，get plenty of sleep．This will make your memories grow stronger．
When you want to remember new information，you must pay special attention．Use your senses﹣﹣sight，smell，hearing and touch﹣and keep repeating the information．To do well in your exams this year，turn off the TV，silence your mobile，and review your work regularly．To remember something special，use your imagination to create visual（视觉的）connections．For example，you need to take a pencil，an eraser，your ID card and chips to your next exam． Imagine the ID card as the body of an animal，the pencil its long neck，and the eraser its head．Your animal is hungry，so now imagine it eating a bag of chips．It may sound crazy，but it's fun and it works．Another way is to do something different to your room．Turn a picture upside﹣down，or tie a sock around the door handle to remind（提醒）yourself of something to remember!
