Boys and girls, do you like your eyes? And do you know that there are many phrases(短语)in English about eyes? We all know people's eyes can be a window into their hearts. Today we'll enjoy the following eye phrases by a story. It's about a man and a woman who are both teachers at the same school.

Let's suppose that the man asked the woman out on a date. She was so happy because this man was the apple of her eye，a very special man. On their date，they might eat a meal. During their dinner, they might discuss many things. They might discover that they see eye to eye, or agree on many things. For example, they might agree that every crime(罪行)should be punished. That is to say they believed in the idea of an eye for an eye.

The next day, the woman asked the man to keep an eye on the young students in her class while she was out. This might be hard to do when the teacher was writing on the blackboard. To do so, a teacher would need to have eyes in the back of his head. In other words. he could know what the students were doing even when he was not watching them.

We live in a much better life than we used to. However, health is still a problem all over the world. Sometimes it seems quite serious.

People need more health care, especially in developing countries. Look at the following table made by World Health Organization (WHO).

Developed Countries Developing countries Total population 20% 80% Share(份额)of the health care 90% 10 The table shows that developed countries have 20 per cent of the world's population but take 90 per cent of the health care.

There is another health problem in developing countries.

根据短文内容回答问题，并将答案写在答题卡上标有题号的横线上。 There is not enough oil in the world now. As time goes by, it becomes less and less. So what are we going to do when oil runs out? Maybe we need the horses again.

In the Second World War, some people didn't use gas made from petroleum(石油)in their cars. They made gas from wood and plants instead. The car didn't go fast, but this was better than nothing. However, in the future, we can't cut down all our trees to make gas.

Besides different types of gas, we can also use electricity to run our cars, but first we must make electricity! Some countries have coal and make electricity with that, but we might not always have coal, either. Other countries have big, strong rivers, and they can use the power of water to turn turbines(涡轮机)and make electricity easily and cheaply.

We are also able to get power from the ocean tides(海潮).When the tide comes in, the water turns the turbines and when it goes out, it turns them again. 83. Is there enough oil in the world now? (1分)
