When you go to a grocery store,you expect to pay for your goods with money.But students at a high school in Texas,US，opened a store that runs on good deeds.
In November,students from Linda Tutt High School in the city of Sanger launched a grocery store that enables students to purchase necessities such as toilet paper,meat and basic food items using a point system.The store aims to support families in need.
"In our school district,there are roughly 2，750 students enrolled and throughout the district,43 perce
nt of these students are considered economically disadvantaged," Anthony Love,principal of Linda Tutt,told CNN. "About 3.6 percent of our students are considered homeless.We thought it was important to support them and their families and make sure they had food on the table."
Students earn points by contributing positively to the school.For those students from poor families,the point system has provided a way for them to shop for their families,according to Love. "They can earn points for doing chores（杂活）around the building or helping to clean," he said.
With the help of partners like Texas Health,Albertsons and First Refuge Ministries,the school
was able to stock the shelves.
The number of points for each item was actually assigned by the students. "So we walked through here and decided that a can of green beans was one point," said Paul Juarez,the executive director of First Refuge Ministries.
Juarez hopes the idea can get implemented（实施）in other areas. "It gives us a picture of what can be.So if we can do this inside other schools,it will do a whole lot to help other small towns." In addition to the financial benefits,students also learn about supply management and customer service,and such lessons could prepare them for future jobs.
The grocery store's student manager,Hunter Weertman,says he has already learned important life skills from his experience at the store,such as making good spending choices and budgeting （安排开支）.
The store practice was also welcomed by Thomas Muir,Sanger's mayor（市长）. "We all had our first jobs and it taught us how to work,and what you got from your work," he said. "I think this will do that for them too,and also meet an immediate need."

______
A. To learn to manage money.
B. To finish their research project.
C. To support students from poor families.

17.How could students earn points？______
A. By volunteering in the community.
B. By doing good deeds at school.
C. By selling goods to families.
D. By doing chores at home.
18.With the help of partners,the school was able to ______ .
A. provide shelves for students
B. buy the shelves to put goods
C. keep supplies of goods to sell
D. make good learning management

"Look how stupid he is!" A 7-year-old said to her dad Daniel Funke,pointing to a picture of a famous person on the Internet.The photo showed the man signing his name -with his pen turned upside down.
Of course,the photo was not the original one.It had been changed to look like him using the pen the wrong way.Funke quickly pointed out the mistake,and his daughter got an on-the -spot education in fake（假的）news.By then,however,many people had already shared it on social media.
"The pitfalls of sharing misinformation and fake news can be very serious," says Laeeq Khan,who heads the Social Media Analytics Lab at Ohio University in Athens.Sharing something that's not true can cost people their lives,he notes.Last year,people in India used a messaging app,WhatsApp,to spread fake stories about a kidnapping ring （团伙）.The lies caused violent attacks in which people died.
Fake news stories hurt people in other ways,too.For example,fake reports lead some parents to refuse（疫苗）for their children.Yet without vaccines,children can get deadly diseases. Fake news can even hurt people who aren't its target（目标）. "About seven in ten Americans were telling us that fake news has a big influence on the confidence in our government," says Jeffrey Gottfried.He's a journalism and media-research expert at Pew Research Center in Washington,D.C.Researchers there did a survey in the United States about the influence of made-up news.About half the people in the survey said they had shared misinformation online.Most of them said they didn't realize it at the time.
Besides causing serious results,sharing a fake story makes it harder for people to tell what's
