雨伞制造商的儿子
The Umbrella Maker's Son
By Katrina Leno
A It's almost always raining in the
town where Oscar lives. B However, his
dad's umbrella-making shop has got into some
trouble. C The shop sells lower-quality(质
量较低的) umbrellas at lower prices. D
Once Oscar finishes middle school in a few
weeks, his dad says that he'll have to help him
at the store. He doesn't have enough money,
so Oscar can't go to school anymore or have
time for his hobby of carving(雕刻) animals out
of wood. Oscar is also sad that his best friend
Saige is moving to another city for her dad's
job. Something is wrong with Saige's legs. She
uses a wheelchair(轮椅). Oscar and Saige plan
to meet at the Night Market. It is a festival that
takes place every two years. That's where
Oscar learns that Saige's dad has a secret(秘密)
that he's keeping from the whole family.
Saige and Oscar go on a great adventure(冒
险) through flooded tunnels(隧道) to find out
why it's often ▲ in town and find out what
her dad's job has to do with it.
This story is partly told in flashback(倒
叙). It has a happy ending. There are fun
footnotes(脚注) at the bottom of many pages
that are interesting to read.

Volcano access closed after eruption
Authorities in Iceland closed access to
Mount Fagradalsfjall, a popular tourist
attraction, after the volcano began erupting
on July 10, following earthquakes in the
area. The volcano has spewed high levels of
toxic gases. Lava (hot liquid rock) also
flowed down the mountain, which was
within 20 miles of Iceland's capital city,
Reykjavik. Tourists have been encouraged to
steer clear of the area until conditions are
further evaluated.

2. 定位第二段第一句：“Once Oscar finishes middle school in a few weeks, his dad says that he'll have to help him at the store.”，提取关键信息，答案为Help his dad at the store。
