Diamond
Everyone knows how beautiful diamonds can be. But do you
know that a diamond is the hardest substance found in nature? Dia-
monds are crystals made of carbon. Scientists believe that diamonds
were formed long ago when parts of the Earth were under great
pressure and heat. Diamonds are so hard that they are used to cut
many other hard materials. But a diamond can only be cut by an-
other diamond, or by a man-made material called borazon. Dia-
monds are found in just a few places in the world. Miners must dig
into the earth to remove the diamonds. Sometimes tons of earth
must be removed and crushed to find just one small diamond. Some
of the diamonds are used in industry to cut hard materials. Other di-
amonds are polished and cut to become jewels. There have been
many famous diamonds in history. The largest, found in 1905,
weighed one and one'third pounds!

lucy in the sky with diamonds
歌手：Beatles
Picture yourself in a boat on a river,
with tangerine trees and marmalade skies.
Somebody calls you,you answer quite slowly,
a girl with caleidoscope eyes.
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green,
towering over your head.
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes
and she's gone.
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,ah,ah.
Follow her downto a bridge by the fountain,
where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies.
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers,
that grow so incredibly high.
Newspaper taxis appear on the shore,
waiting to take you away.
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds
and you're gone.
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,ah,ah.
Picture yourself on a train in a station,
with plasticine porters with looking glass ties.
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile,
the girl with caleidoscope eyes.
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,ah,ah.

Pebbles and diamonds
“Who do we have to learn about these useless things?”
This is one of the most common complaints teachers hear from their students.In such cases,we may tell the students.such a story:
One evening,while a group of a herdsmen was preparing to make camp after a day of tiring travel,all of a sudden,they found them surrounded by a bunch of bright light.They realized that God would be there,so they became excited,looking forward to what great expectation.
Soon God was there and said to them：“Before dawn breaks tomorrpw,you have to collect along the way a number of pebbles to fill your saddlebags.Tomrrow night,maybe you will be very happy,but you may also have a deep regrey.”
The herdsmen were much disappointed,because they had expected God to bring them untold wealth and health,but God should have told tohem to do all there meaningless things.However,after all,it was God's will,so unwilling as they were ,they decided to do as they were told by God--picking over some pebbles and put them into the saddlebags outside the camp.
The next bay,they broke camp and traveled on.When night fell,they began to make camp .Then they went to examine the saddlebags.To their surprise,they found that every pebble they put in their saddlebags had turned into a diamond.They were much delighted and at the asame time they were very sorry,regretting not having collected more pebbles.
So remember:Now we feel that knowledge is useless,like pebbles; in the future it may become endless wealth.

Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend. But some women show great interest in colorful beads（珠子）from Uganda made of recycled paper. The beads are sold by a nonprofit organization called BeadforLife. BeadforLife began as a chance meeting between three American women on a trip to Uganda and a local jewelry maker. Millie Grace Akena was rolling paper beads near her home. She made paper beads as a hobby. But there was no real market in her country. Torkin Wakefield says she and her daughters Devin and Ginny brought some of the beads back home. Immediately people started admiring the beads. The three Americans started BeadforLife in 2004. Nearly 700 women have taken part. The group says its beaders earn an average of more than 2,000 dollars a year in the program. This is five times what they earned before. The beads are sold across Uganda and in Boulder, Colorado. They are also sold online and at jewelry shows called bead parties. “Because they have meaning, because these are gifts that help people, when folks in America and beyond buy our beads, they feel a sense of generosity. They feel a direct connection, like they can really take part in getting rid of poverty.” Torkin said. The jewelry costs between five and thirty dollars. BeadforLife reported sales in its last budget year of more that 3.5 million dollars. It says for every ten-dollar necklace sold, the beader gets two dollars and forty-three cents in money or materials. It says more than 90% of earnings are reinvested in community development projects in Uganda. Torkin Wakefield estimates that BeadforLi fe has helped more than 8,000 people this way.

Diamonds may be forever. But what’s a girl to do when she gets dumped (失恋) or divorced (离婚) and those rings, necklace and love gifts lose their emotional (情感) sense? Help is just a click away on new Web sites that provide an outlet for selling jewelry(珠宝) from past relationships, sharing break-up stories and helping broken hearts heal (愈合). “You go through a divorce. What do you do with that ring? Maybe you have a child you can pass it on to. Maybe you don’t. It just sits there, ” said Megahn Perry, who with her stepmother (继母) Marie Perry runs www.***.com. Three months after its start with the slogan(口号) “You Don’t Want It. He Can’t Have It Back,” the web site has 3,000 registered users and more than 600 postings of rings, bracelets and earrings for sale—all with a personal tale attached. As one woman posting a diamond ring for $3,500 wrote: “Beautiful ring came with a wrong man. Decided to sell to regain the money that I spent finishing payments on the ring that my ex didn’t.” The idea was born when Megahn Perry, a Los Angeles actress and writer, was looking for a safe place to sell a wedding set after a divorce and realized others might have former boyfriends’ jewelry with memories(记忆) that make them too painful to wear. The local pawn shop(当铺) proved an unattractive choice. So she teamed up with her stepmother Marie, researched the market and found a gap in it. 小题1: The passage is mainly about _____. A．how a web site is set up B．how sad the love stories are C．How much a website can make D．How many people like the web site 小题2:How long is it since the start of this website? A．Less than three months. B．At least three months. C．Less than one month. D．Not known. 小题3:How many people have registered on this website within three months? A．About 600. B．About 3,000. C．About 3,500. D．Not know. 小题4:Who set up this website? A．Megahn herself alone. B．Megahn and her best friend. C．Megahn and her stepmother. D．Megahn and her exboyfriend. 小题5:What’s the meaning of the underlined word “gap” in the last sentence? A．Gulf between two people. B．Misunderstandings among each other. C．Differences from a pawn shop. D．A market worth developing.

牛脚尖.
diamonds,as they are found,do not look very impressive.
其中的they are found,它是个插入短语,如果硬给它分结构的话,怎么分?
they是主语,are是谓语,found?
they find.
they found
they been found
我脑子里突然跳出这些来，
被动用过去式，found，are是谓词，但found应该也是动词？
are found也不是什么短语？

They had got away with thousands of pounds worth of diamonds.They had got away with diamonds worth thousands of pounds.这两句中,worth的用法有什麽区别?还能提供worth的用法最好.
