Ammie Reddick from East Kilbride, Lanarkshire, was only 18 months old when she had the accident that had scarred(留下創(chuàng)傷) her for life. The curious child reached up to grab the wire of a hot kettle in the family kitchen and poured boiling water over her tiny infant frame(身軀).

Her mother Ruby turned round and, seeing Ammie horribly burnt, called an ambulance which rushed her daughter to a nearby hospital. Twenty percent of Ammie’s body had been burned and all of her burns were third-degree. There, using tissue(組織) taken from unburned areas of Ammie’s body, doctors performed complex skin transplants(移植) to close her wounds and control her injuries, an operation that took about six hours. Over the next 16 years, Ammie underwent 12 more operations to repair her body.

When she started school at Maxwelton Primary at age 4, other pupils made cruel comments or simply wouldn’t play with her. “I was the only burned child in the street, the class and the school,” she recalled, “some children refused to become friends because of that.”

Today, aged 17, Ammie can only ever remember being a burned person with scars; pain is a permanent part of her body. She still has to have two further skin transplants. Yet she is a confident, outgoing teenager who offers inspiration and hope to other young burns victims.

She is a member of the Scottish Burned Children’s Club, a charity set up last year. This month, Ammie will be joining the younger children at the Graffham Water Center in Cambridge shire for the charity’s first summer camp. “I’ll show them how to get rid of unkind stares from others,” she says. Ammie loves wearing fashionable sleeveless tops, and she plans to show the youngsters at the summer camp that they can too. “I do not go to great lengths to hide my burnt scars,” she says, “I gave up wondering how other people would react years ago.”

1.What did other children do when Ammie first went to school?

A.They were friendly to her.

B.They showed sympathy to her.

C.They were afraid of her.

D.They looked down upon her.

2.Ammie will teach the younger children at the Graffham Water Center to___________.

A.face others’ unkindness bravely

B.hide their scars by proper dressing

C.live a normal life

D.recover quickly

3.What does the underlined word “permanent” in the 4th paragraph mean?

A. necessary B. life-long

C. difficult D. important

4.What can be the best title of the passage?

A. A Seriously Burned Girl Survives

B. Ways to Get Rid of Unkind Stares

C.Permanent Scars And Pain For a Girl

D. A Seriously Burned Angel of Hope

I travel a lot, and I find out different “styles”(風(fēng)格)of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?”

Foreign tourists are often confused(困惑)in Japan because most streets there don’t have names; in Japan, people use landmarks(地標(biāo))in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”

In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat;in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example , people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”

People in Los Angeles , California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’ is about five minutes from here.” You say , “Yes , but how many miles away is it ?”They don’t know .

It’s true that a person doesn’t know the answer to your question sometimes . What happens in such a situation ? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry ,I have no idea .” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” People in Yucatan believe that “I don’t know” is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one .A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan !

1.When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place, they usually ____________.

A. describe the place carefully

B. show him a map of the place

C. tell him the names of the streets

D. refer to recognizable buildings and places

2.What is the place where people measure distance in time ?

A. New York. B. Los Angeles.

C. Kansas. D. Iowa

3.People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer _____________.

A. order to save time B. to cheat him

C. so as to be polite D. for fun

4. What can we infer from the text ?

A. It’s important for travelers to understand cultural differences .

B. It’s useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly .

C. People have similar understandings of politeness .

D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors .
