My brother Sam called me from the airport. He came to Washington to spend holidays with me. Because I was very busy at that time, I had no time to meet him. So I told him where my new house was and asked him to go to my new house by himself. I told him that I had put my key in a box by the door and he could get the key from the box.

Two hours later, my brother called me from the house.

“Hi. Jill. I am in your house. I had some bread, chicken and apple juice. Now I am watching TV. Your new house is so big that I almost lost my way here!” Sam said excitedly.

“All right! Just make yourself at home. But did you have any trouble finding my house?” I asked.

“Well, there isn’t any box by the door, but the window by the apple tree is open. So I climbed in through the window, you know it’s easy for me.” Sam said.

I listened to this in surprise and said, “Sam, there isn’t any tree outside my house!”

Posted on 25 March by Selina

I used to shower with soap every day，but my skin（皮膚）always felt dry and itchy（發(fā)癢的）. Then two months ago, I heard of the no-soap movement. Since then, I’ve given up using soap in the shower. I still shower every day. I just don't use soap because it's filled with chemicals.

So, what's so bad about using soap? Well, the chemicals in soaps can be harmful to our health. So, if we use soap, our skin will take in the chemicals, which will then end up in our bodies. According to the scientists, some of the chemicals used in a soap are quite dangerous. During my research, I also learnt that soap removes moisture（水分）from the body. This is actually why my skin was so dry and itchy.

Getting used to washing my body without soap was a huge change. For the first week, I felt a bit dirty and I didn't smell great, either. However, during the second week, my skin felt clean without strange smell. Best of all, my skin problems disappeared, and now I have softer and healthier skin.

On the whole, going soap-free has not only saved me time and money, but has also improved my skin. What's more, this experience has made me take a look at some of the other products I use in the shower, such as shampoo. More about that in my next blog!

1.What do people do when they join the no-soap movement?

A.Have a shower only a week. B.Never use soap when having a shower.

C.Throw away all the soap they have. D.Make soap on their own instead of buying it.

2.Why does Selina’s skin always feel dry and itchy according to the reading?

A.Because she takes showers too often. B.Because she often showers at a high heat.

C.Because the soap she uses smells terrible D.Because soap takes away her moisture.

3.What happened to Selina during the second week?

A.She smelt bad but felt clean. B.She felt dirty but smelt great.

C.She smelt normal and felt clean. D.She felt dry and smelt strange.

4.What might Selina write in her next blog?

A.When and how the shampoo was invented. B.Where and when her shampoo was brought.

C.How she enjoys the shower with shampoo. D.What she thinks of shampoo in the shower.
