I shouted, “Come on, Matt, let’s fight.” He said he didn’t want to. But peer pressure（同伴的压力） 7 him into the fight whether he liked it or not. He came toward me with his fists（拳头） in the air. With one 8 , I bloodied（弄出血） his nose and the classroom became 9 . No one dared to say a word.

Most of us have many pencils. But do you know how these common writing tools came into being?

■It started in Rome

The first example of a pencil-type instrument probably came from ancient Rome. There, a thin piece of metal was used to draw onto an early form of paper. It was also used to write down numbers on the page.

■England’s find

Around 1564, graphite（石墨） was discovered near Cumbria, England. It was regarded as a perfect way to record their sheep. But the graphite was very soft. So people provided it with a covering.

■Italian changes

A couple from Italy thought of a better idea. They hollowed（掏空） out a wooden stick and then placed a graphite stick inside it. This created a wooden holder for the graphite.

■German improvements

In 1839, Germany’s Lothar von Faber invented a way to make graphite sticks all the same. He also invented a machine to cut the pencil wood.

■American production

By the late 1860s in America, pencils were in great need. American companies began designing machines to produce them. It helped meet the need and cut the cost of pencils by 50%.

■Japanese ideas

In 1915, Japan’s Tokuji Hayakawa created a mechanical pencil（自动笔） which was similar to one used now.

Today both kinds of pencils are very popular with the wooden pencil being number one. More than 6 billion wooden pencils are produced in 40 different countries each year.

Actress Mei Ting has been named as the ambassador（大使） for inclusive education（全纳教育） in China

by Save the Children, one of the world’s most important charities, just before Children’s Day comes on June 1.

Inclusive education means all students, including those who are physically（身体上） or mentally（心理上） disadvantaged, should have the same chance to learn in usual school.

However, China began thinking about it only recently, according to Xu Jiacheng, a speical education expert at Beijing Union University.

China has about 370,000 physically or mentally disadvantaged students, and more than half of them are in special education schools. But in the United States, only 7 percent of its 5.79 million mentally and physically challenged students are in such schools—the rest are all in usual schools with other students, Xu added.

Besides, by the end of 2012, China had about 80,000 school-aged young children having physical or mental problems, but about 30 percent of them were not able to attend any school, according to Wang Le, who works for Save the Children’s China programs.

D（2017·杭州市下城区模拟）

Have your parents ever told you any strange or scary things about protecting your eyes? For example, they might have said that you’d go blind from reading in the dark, but you could make up for it by eating a lot of carrots.

This is just one of the wrong ideas you may have heard of. Below teens has picked out scientific explanations for three mistakes people often make about eyes. Let’s take a look.

Can eating carrots improve your eyesight?

Carrots are rich in Vitamin A, which is essential for our eyes’ general health. Vitamin A helps the eyes to make light into signals, allowing people to see in low light conditions. However, eating more carrots doesn’t help you see better. A certain minimum amount will help, but a large number of carrots will not give you superhuman vision or allow you to get rid of your glasses.

If your parents have bad eyesight, will you have bad eyesight, too?

Myopia（近视） can be passed from parents to children. A study by the American Optometric Association found that if both parents are myopia, there’s a 33 to 60 percent chance that the child is. For children who have one parent with myopia, the chance is 23 to 40 percent, and it’s down to 6 to 15 percent for kids with non-myopia parents. So no matter how bad your parents’ eyesight is, you still have a chance having good eyesight.

Is it true that people who are color-blind can’t see colors?

Color-blindness doesn’t mean that someone can’t see colors at all, like a black and white movie. Most commonly, it means that someone has difficulty telling certain colors apart, usually green and red or blue and yellow. Color-blindness is usually a condition caused by not having color cone cells or the cells not working. If the cells don’t respond in the right way to differences in wavelengths of light, color-blindness happens.

There are different levels of color-blindness. Some people cannot tell the difference between colors in dim light, while others have difficulty in any light. In the most serious form of color-blindness, everything is seen in shades of gray.

（ ）27. According to the passage, which is the RIGHT idea about eating carrots?
