I work as a volunteer for a group that helps the poor in Haiti. I decided to take my son Brain there for a week， hoping to educate(教育) him.
Before getting out， I told Brain this trip would be tiring and hard. For the first two days， he said almost nothing. Then on the third day， when we were climbing over high rocky mountains(高山)， he turned to me and smiled， “Really hard.”
After that， a five-year-old girl， wearing a too large dress and broken shoes， followed Brain around. Later he said， “I wish I could speak French.” I was surprised that this was from a boy who always hated French classes.
However， the moment that really reached my heart occurred in a village in the mountains. I was interviewing(采访) a woman villager for an article. By working hard， she learned to read and write and became one of the leaders of the village.
Learning her story， Brain was greatly touched. His eyes were wet and there was love and respect(尊重) on his face. He finally understood the importance of my work. When leaving for home， Brain even offered to stay in as a volunteer. This trip was very meaningful.

How could we tell time if there were no watches or clocks anywhere in the world?
The sun was probably the world’s first “clock”， except in the far north， where the Eskimos (爱斯基摩人) live. There， it’s dark most of the winter， and light most of the summer. But in most of the world， people have used the sun for a clock. Even today， if you don’t have a clock， you still know that when the sun shines， it’s day， and when it’s dark， it’s night. The sun can also tell you if it’s morning， noon， or afternoon.
People near the sea can tell time from the tides(潮汐). In the daytime， for about six hours， the water rises higher and higher on the beach. And then it goes down and down for about six hours. The same thing happens again at night. There are two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours.
Seamen on a ship learn how to tell time by looking at the moon and the stars. The whole sky is their clock. In some places in the world the wind comes up at about the same time every day or changes direction or stops blowing. In these places the wind can be the clock.
A sand(沙) clock is an even better clock. If you had fine dry sand in a glass shaped like the one in the picture， you would have what is called an hourglass. The sand in the hourglass goes from the top part to the bottom(底部) part in exactly one hour. When people turn over the hourglass， the sand will take another hour to go back again.

A. there are no more than two tides in a day
B. a sand clock is a better clock than the tide
C. only the moon is a good “clock” for seamen
D. the wind can be a clock all over the world
4.In which column(栏目) of a newspaper can you most probably read this passage?

Dear Basketball And so I ran.
I ran up and down every playground
From the right moment I gave you my heart
I fell in love with you. Because it came with so much more.
A love so deep I gave you my all —
From my mind & body I played through the sweat(汗水) and hurt
To my spirit & soul(灵魂). Not because challenge(挑战) called me
But because YOU called me.
As a six-year-old boy I did everything for YOU.
Deeply in love with you

I only saw myself And I’ll always love you for it.
Running out of one. Love you always.
