We often overlook and completely forget how dangerous the game of baseball can be for the players on the field,and even for the fans,who gather very closely as baseballs and bats fly around at the park at terrifying speeds.

   Unfortunately,we were hit with a troubling reminder on Friday night at Fenway Park,Boston as one fan reportedly suffered life-threatening injuries after being struck in the face by the (擊球端) of a broken bat. The scary incident happened because a player hit the ball hard,causing his bat to break at the handle. The broken barrel flew into the stands to the left of home plate (the place that the player has to stand next to in order to hit the ball,and the last place they have to touch to score a point) where it reportedly struck the fan. According to Boston police,the fan was taken to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center,where she’s currently receiving treatment for her injuries.

   A security guard who witnessed the accident said the woman,who was sitting with her husband and son at the time,suffered serious injuries. Her son sitting near her was terribly frightened. A number of fans witnessed the accident,including Alex Merlas of Brookline. “Brett Lawrie hit the ball and the bat broke in half near the end of the bat,” Metlas said. “It hit the fan on the top of her forehead and there was a lot of bleeding. I don't think I’ve ever seen that much blood."

   That game was delayed temporarily so the fan could be transported to an ambulance waiting at one of the gates inside the ballpark. Fans were left shocked and shaken as the stadium crew cleaned up the scene. Players could be seen discussing it as well,as all who witnessed it were obviously affected. Those who were watching the accident wished the woman fan and her family the very best.

   There's a new kind of bullying on the block. Rumors(謠言) ，threats , exclusion(排斥) ，and the lot have recently been accompanied by an equally dangerous but less overt(明顯的) method of tearing other people down: body shame bullying.

   Body shaming can affect anyone — regardless of gender or weight — and it's been observed as a growing trend appearing in school cafeterias.

   So what does this mean exactly? Kids and teens are pressuring one another to skip lunch or eat much less food than they want. With judgmental looks and nasty comments,students intentionally make their schoolmates feel ashamed of how much they eat,leading some kids to go so far as to buy lunch and then throw it away.

   In a recent survey of over 5 ,000 Canadian middle and high school students,researchers found that teens who reported being bullied were more likely to skip meals. The bullying took place online or in-person. As scientists have previously linked bullying with depression,anxiety,and eating disorders,it's not safe to brush off an occasional meal pass as an isolated incident; it's likely to become a repeated self-destructive behavior.

   To help fight against this form of bullying,researchers suggest that schools prohibit students from hanging out in the cafeteria if they’ re not eating,requiring parent permission forms if a student wants to skip lunch,and simply asking students what they ate for lunch,which may encourage them to discuss the issue.

25. Body shame bullying .

   A. mainly hurts young girls

   B. not only affects fat people

   C. is less dangerous than threats

   D. is a traditional kind of bullying

26. Which of the following words can best replace the underlined word “nasty” in Paragraph 3 ?

   A. Unfair. B. Brief.

   C. Unkind. D. Helpful.

27. What can we' infer from Paragraph 4 about body shaming?

   A. It can be very harmful.

   B. It always takes place in-person.

   C. It can be good for people's health.

   D. It doesn’ t always cause missed meals.

28. What is the last paragraph mainly about?

   A. Different forms of bullying.

   B. A discussion about bullying.

   C. How to avoid body shame bullying.

   D. What parents should do to stop bullying.

   It is the first day of high school. And with it'so often,comes nervousness — especially for students making the leap to high school.

   But inside the Theodore Roosevelt High School gym for freshman orientation (迎新會) , at least some of those nerves had turned into excitement.

   Juniors and seniors were leading ninth-graders through team-building activities,then walking them through their class schedule. And before they left,students planned on exchanging phone numbers to text questions later on.

   The new initiative（行動） is part of a nationally known program called Link Crew,which started at Roosevelt and was adopted as a district-wide high school program this year.

   What's unique about this initiative is the yearlong focus on peer mentoring(同齡人指導(dǎo)) that goes far beyond the first few days of lockers that won’t open and classrooms that can't be found.

   The idea is to build up friendships and school spirit and encourage ninth-graders to meet new friends or join activities that interest them.

   Roosevelt Principal Kevin Biggs said ,“Our freshmen will be more comfortable around peers than they will be around adults."

   Groups are designed so students meet individuals with different backgrounds and cultures. And they'11 continue to meet during the school year,attending a football game or school dance together.

   The new program is expected to develop friendships and peer-to-peer support,from helping each other through a breakup to talking through concerns about fights with friends.

   “A lot of times,students can talk to students about things that they may not feel comfortable talking to an adult about,” said Ally son Vukovich,the district's community partnership coordinator (協(xié)調(diào)者) .

   “It really changes the culture within a building,” she added, “so upperclassmen find some ownership about what goes on in their school."

25. Which word can describe the feeling of the freshmen in Theodore Roosevelt High School?

   A. Nervous. B. Afraid.

   C. Proud. D. Excited.

26. What do we know about the new initiative?

   A. It lasts through a year.

   B. It is adopted throughout the US.

   C. It was put forward by Kevin Biggs.

   D. It paired adult mentors with freshmen.

27. What's the main purpose of the new program?

   A. To develop students’ sense of responsibility.

   B. To help freshmen adjust to life in high school.

   C. To help students learn about different cultures.

   D. To teach students how to get along with others.

28. What's Allyson Vukovich’ s attitude towards the new program?

   A. Worried. B. Doubtful.

   C. Uncaring. D. Supportive.
