A Frenchman Niepce,needed pictures for his business.But he was not a good artist.So he invented a very simple camera in 1826.He put it in a window of his house and took a picture of his garden.That was the first photo.

    The next important date in the history of photography (摄影术) was in 1837.That year,Dagueme,another Frenchman,took a picture of his reading room.He used a new kind of camera in a different way.In his picture you could see everything very clearly,even the smallest thing.

   In 1840,photography was developed once more.Then photographers could take pictures of people and moving things.But the photographers had to carry many machines.

    With the development of science and technology,a Chinese young man Wang Mengqiu,invented Hover Camera (无人相机).It can record people and things more wonderfully.He once studied at Stanford University in the United States.He became famous overnight because of the invention.

Many people like to travel by plane, but I don’t like it because an airport (机场) is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off(起飞)and it is often late. You can’t open the windows. You can’t choose the food. Planes are fast, but it still takes you hours to go out of the airport and into the city.
I like taking the train. I think trains are safe (安全的). Train stations are usually in cities. When you are late for a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around in the train and open the windows. You can see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a lot of time.

Do you know the phrase “Weibo Addicts” (微博控)? Do you write a Weibo? If you don’t, you are “out”!
Weibo means microblog. People may spend much time writing a blog, but it takes a little time to write a microblog. Why? Because every message on a microblog is less than 140 words.
Microblog started in the USA. It came to China in 2009 and it grows very fast. In 2011, the number of Chinese micro-bloggers grew to 300 million. People write microblogs for many reasons. For many microblog users, it is a great way of learning the freshest news, talking with friends and sharing different kinds of information, including news, everyday life, pictures, music, videos and so on.
It is easy and fast to send a message on a microblog. However, this can also bring problems and even panic (恐慌). For example, when the big earthquake and tsunami (海啸) hit Japan in March, 2011, messages like “Salt can help people fight radiation (辐射)” were hot on microblogs. Then a crazy buying of salt followed. Later people knew it was just a rumor (谣言).
In a word, microblog plays a new part in the life of Chinese people.
What does Weibo Addicts in the first paragraph mean?

A.People who are crazy about Weibo.
B.People who seldom use Weibo.
C.People who first made Weibo.
D.People who need Weibo least.

Singing songs is fun, but is it also useful? For learning English pronunciation(发音), Mr. Joe thinks songs are the most useful way to learn. At the same time, you can learn some new words and phrases while singing songs. Mr. Joe has used songs to help himself learn French, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese. You should do the same.
Some words used in songs are not everyday English, so you have to be careful how you use song lyrics(歌词)when you speak. Most words and sentences are very useful. You don't have to sing songs aloud if you are shy, but after learning a song you should be able to follow the words without looking at the lyrics. When you can do that, you have learned something that you will never forget!
Some good songs to listen to are from the Beatles, John Denver and the Carpenters. Their songs are not too fast and the lyrics are close to normal spoken English. Just for fun, you can try Mr. Joe's favorite singer, B.B. King. His songs are not easy at all! If you can understand even 80% of "Why I Sing the Blues", you are a very advanced student.
If you become good at singing English songs, you can try to go to karaoke and sing with your friends. When you are able to sing a song in another language, even if you don't sing so beautifully, you will really impress(给......深刻印象) other people!
Which is Mr. Joe’s mother language?
