“Look, it’s Baldy (禿子)!” A boy shouted in my direction across the playground. Even though I was used to this kind of insults (侮辱) because of the scars (傷疤) on my head, it was still horrible to hear. I felt so sad as I headed back to the class.

As a child, I cared much about my scars, so I usually wore a ________________ to cover them up when I left home. If I didn't, people would call me horrible names like Baldy. ________________ my friends were always comforting me, they never really understood how it felt.

Then through the hospital, I was introduced to a children’s burns camp, where children like me can get any help. There, I __________________ 14-year-old Stephanie, whose burns are a lot more serious than mine. But she is _________________ strong that she never lets anyone put her down. “You shouldn’t listen to what people say about what you look like because we’re not different from ________________ else, Holly,” she encouraged me. “And you don’t need to wear a scarf because you look great without it!” __________________ the first time in my life I could speak to someone who’d been through something similar. So weeks later, at my 13th birthday party, encouraged by her bravery, I _______________ up my scarf and showed off my scars. It felt amazing not having to hide away behind my scarf.

Now, I am _________________ of what I look like and much happier, because I have realized it is your personality that decides who you truly are.

My 11-year-old daughter has been offered an academic scholarship (獎學(xué)金) to a private school. It's only a small discount (折扣), but the scholarship means she is accepted by the school which my husband and I need to pay $ 20,000 a year for. Should we pay the private school cost, or choose free education instead?

It was really a hard decision for us to make. For me, I always wanted my children to go to a private school, like I did. Not because my family is rich, but because I believe that the best education is private. It took years for me to make peace with the fact that my two children attended our local public primary school. “They'll go to a private high school.” I told myself.

But the fact is that my eldest is now in her last year of primary school, and my husband and I will find our way to afford the private school. If so, I could increase my work hours. My law degree was supposed to be my ticket to a good job and a good pay, but that was just our wishes, not the fact.

During many sleepless nights, I felt troubled by the decision. Although I want the best for my daughter, I have my own dreams too. I can't give up everything for my baby girl. I explain that I want to be a positive (積極的) role model for my daughter, and an unhappy parent is a terrible strain on a family. I point out that even the best private school won’t protect my children from disappointment or hard work. And finally, it's decided.

Because I understand it's my family that shaped me instead of my great private school education. I can no longer remember the maths problems and what Shakespeare said which I once knew so perfectly. The lessons from my family, however, have turned out to be impossible to forget.

1.The scholarship her daughter has won means that ________.

A.she is good at sports B.the family is full of love

C.she is accepted by that private school D.they don’t have to pay for the school

2.The underlined word strain in Paragraph 3 means ________.

A.憤怒 B.安慰 C.負擔(dān) D.解脫

3.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A.The writer had a good job with a good pay.

B.It took a long time for her to make the final decision.

C.Her two children attended their local private primary school.

D.The scholarship her daughter won could cover all of her school cost.

4.We can infer from the passage that ________.

A.the daughter will go to a public high school

B.private schools provide better education than public schools

C.the writer wanted her daughter to receive the best education

D.her daughter’s talent was wasted at the public primary school

Imagine having an ear made out of an apple. It seems like a crazy idea. But it could happen in the near future.

Canadian biophysicist Andrew Pelling used an apple to grow a human ear. He thinks fruit and vegetables can be used to cheaply repair human body parts in the future.

Scientists have been trying to grow organs in labs to replace our old ones. But it‘s a hard job. In the past, scientists have used man-made materials, animal parts and even dead people as scaffolds（支架）. But that has proved to be difficult and expensive.

Pelling and his team, however, found the apple to be a cheap and easy-to-use scaffolds.They first cut an apple into the shape of an ear. Then they used a special way to take out the apple‘s cells（細胞）and make it a scaffold. The team then added human cells to the apple, and watched it grow. “You can implant（移植）these scaffold into the body, and the body will send in cells and a blood supply and actually keep these things alive, ” Pelling said during a Ted Talk speech.

The team put the apple scaffold inside a living mouse and the mouse’s cells slowly take over the pieces of the apple.

Now Pelling is thinking of the other fruit, plants or vegetables to use.

A.body and organs B.biology and organ
