11、the most of on his eight hundred hectares (公頃) of land. In 1992, Mr Whisenant had some bad luck.It began to rain. And it rained some more. Nearly 50 centimeters of rain destroyed the tomato crops that year. Blake Whisenant wasnt a happy farmer.So he began looking to find a way to make sure this neve

12、r happened again. He wanted to develop a system that would provide water to the plants from below. He wanted the plants to be grown in a box that would take up little space.

13、nnsylvania that agreed to make the box. It would be made of thick plastic, and would be about one meter long and half a meter deep.

19、hat doesnt take much effort. If you ever tried to walk on a falling tree log, you may understand what the expression means. It is easier to fall off the log than to stay on it.

20、og. One is “Easy as Pie”.

27、ey bought a house through the Federal Housing Program, and moved west to Hawaii. It was there, at the University of Hawaii, where Barack's parents met. His mother was a student there, and his father had won a scholarship that allowed him to leave Kenya and follow his dreams in America. Barack

But Barack had come to realize that in order to truly improve the lives of people, it would take not just a change at the loca

30、l level, but a change in laws and in politics. He went on to earn his law degree from Harvard in 1991, Soon after, he returned to Chicago to practice as a civil rights lawyer and teach constitutional law.

34、ed, his writing didn't. "My handwriting just got worse," he says. "I get tired of trying to write neatly." Like Richie, many teenagers make resolutions(決心) at the beginning of each new year. More than half of Americans say they make a New Year's resolution - but only one-

35、third of them are successful, reports the University of North Carolina US. “One reason why people stop working on their resolutions is their demanding (asking for something strongly) total perfection（完美） , “says Chicago life coach Alison Miller. Resolutions sometimes can be unrealistic . Going for a

36、 goal that's too hard to achieve can leave a person feeling sad. Saying 'I'm going to look like a super-model or Britney Spears is going to make you unhappy. Sure it's a great idea to aim for improvement, but not all resolutions are helpful. The difference between good and bad resolu

37、tions is whether you expect too much from yourself, Miller says. For example, it's OK to say, "I'm going to eat fewer French fries ," but fighting for a perfect body isn't reasonable. Timing also can damage a resolution. Kevin M., 16, says he doesn't set resolutions because

38、 12 months is unrealistic. "It's too long and you start putting off keeping your resolution during summer," he says. Even though "New Year's resolutions don't work" for him, Kevin is planning to practise piano for at least an hour a day this year. He's considering

39、 a career in music, but says homework and school are his main concerns. Knowing his work, he says he'll "be lucky to get 30 minutes a day" of practice. A bit is better than nothing, and making reminders(暗示) can help you do a little at a time. Miller says teenagers should write down the
