Her owners, who were supposed to her most, did absolutely nothing about it. They had never sought any kind of for poor Jazzy. Nobody knew how it and it was believed that she was hit by a car, or that someone had done this to her.

Jazzy’s cruel owners didn’t take her to the veterinarian, her condition went from bad to worse. Over time her front right leg loosely, and her left leg was permanently bent at a sharp angle. The pain must have been astonishing. She moved around like a baby seal. She needed .

In a Los Angeles animal shelter, things got even . The shelter could not provide the costly operations that could be to restore Jazzy’s ability to and lead a normal life, and it was impossible to find a family who would be able to a dog in this condition. The difficult was made to euthanize(使安樂死)sweet Jazzy.

All was lost. Then a miracle happened. A volunteer from Dogs Without Borders saw Jazzy. Jazzy was pulled out of the and rescuers got busy working on a plan to ensure that Jazzy would get treatment. For months, Dogs Without Borders cared for Jazzy, while enough money for her operations. Donations came in. Finally in December 2013 the money was enough and it was time to get her operations !

Every day, Daisy wakes up next to a man, who has to convince her they are married. When she expresses doubt, he takes out a photo album and shows her pictures of their wedding 13 years ago.

Only then does amnesiac Daisy accept that she has been married, and that everything he has told her is true. The lady's condition was caused by brain injuries suffered in two road accidents, a motorbike crash in 1985 and a car accident in 1990. Daisy can recall everything up to 1994, but since then everything that happens on one day is forgotten the next day.

She has no day-to?day memory after the car crash. And it is not just loved ones Daisy struggles with. She uses hundreds of notes and reminders on her mobile phone's calendar to keep her informed of appointments and everyday duties. Anything she has done or anyone she has met must be logged for future reference. And on the rare occasions when she takes the risk of going out of her home alone, she has to be armed with navigation (導(dǎo)航) programmed with her address.

There are some benefits, however. There is no such thing as a repeat on TV and every joke is funny, because it seemed she has heard it the first time.“It’s like I am living the same day, day after day, said Daisy, who does voluntary work at a charity for people with disabilities three days a week.

Dr Peter Nestor said Daisy was suffering from anterograde(【醫(yī)】 前進(jìn)的, 順行的) amnesia. He added, “It is reasonably rare, but it does exist. You are able to carry out day?to?day things, and don't forget how to do certain things like speaking. But if someone was to ask you what you did yesterday, you wouldn't have a clue.”

1.What caused Daisy’s condition?

A. Her disability since birth.

B. Brain injuries in accidents.

C. Her declining health

D. Overloaded working.

2.How did Daisy’s family help remind her?

A. By taking her to the hospital

B. By telling her jokes.

C. By showing her old photos and pictures.

D. By persuading her to recall the car crash.

3.The underlined word “amnesiac” in Paragraph 2 probably means“________”.

A. strong B. optimistic

C. warm?hearted D. forgetful

4.What does the 3rd paragraph mainly tell us?

A. Benefits of Daisy condition.

B. Great troubles Daisy has in life.

C. How Daisy helps herself.

D. The reason why Daisy forgets things.

5.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Daisy could still enjoy a lot in spite of her illness.

B. The only thing Daisy kept in mind was her home.

C. Daisy couldn't do anything but stay at home.

D. Daisy didn't want to trust anyone else.

Can people change their skin colour without suffering like pop king Michael Jackson? Perhaps yes. Scientists have found the gene that determines skin colour.

The gene comes in two versions, one of which is found in 99 per cent of Europeans. The other is found in 93 to 100 per cent of Africans, researchers at Pennsylvania State University report in the latest issue of Science.

Scientists have changed the colour of a dark-striped zebrafish to uniform gold by inserting a version of the pigment(色素) gene into a young fish. As with humans, zebrafish skin colour is determined by pigment cells, which contain melanosomes(黑色素). The number, size and darkness of melanosomes per pigment cell determines skin colour.

It appears that, like the golden zebrafish, light-skinned Europeans also have a mutation(變異) in the gene for melanosome production. This results in less pigmented skin.

However, Keith Cheng, leader of the research team, points out that the mutation is different in human and zebrafish genes.

Humans acquired dark skin in Africa about 1.5 million years ago to protect bodies from ultra-violet rays(紫外線) of the sun, which can cause skin cancer.

But when modern humans leave Africa to live in northern latitudes, they need more sunlight on their skin to produce vitamin D. So the related gene changes, according to Cheng.

Asians have the same version of the gene as Africans, so they probably acquired their light skin through the action of some other gene that affects skin colour, said Cheng.

The new discovery could lead to medical treatments for skin cancer. It also could lead to research into ways to change skin colour without damaging it like chemical treatment did on Michael Jackson.

1.What is the main idea of the passage?

A. People can’t change their skin colour without any pain.

B. The new discovery helped find ways to change skin colour safely.

C. Pop king Michael Jackson often changed his skin colour as he liked.

D. Scientists have found out that people’s skin colour is determined by the gene.

2.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.

A. nowadays changing the skin colour with the chemical treatment has bad effect

B. Europeans and Africans have the same genes

C. the new discovery could help to find medical treatments for skin cancer

D. there are two kinds of skin genes

3.Scientists have done an experiment on a dark-striped zebra fish in order to ________.

A. find the different genes of humans

B. prove the humans’ skin colour is determined by the pigment gene

C. find out the reason why the Africans’ skin colour is dark

D. find out the ways of changing people’s skin colour

4.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Michael Jackson died of skin damage caused by chemical treatment.

B. American blacks produce more vitamin D with their skin than others.

C. The gene determining skin colour exists widely in whites, blacks and Asians.

D. The melanosomes in the skin of blacks usually cause skin cancer more often.

Both of Jessica’s parents were lawyers and expected her to follow suit. So she went to law school, got a job at a great firm in Washington, DC, and worked as a lawyer for a decade. But her heart was never in it. “I had a big salary but no personal satisfaction,” she says.

Jessica found pleasure in the same thing that had brought her joy since joining the church choir at the age of 12. “Singing always felt like communicating something real at a spiritual and emotional level,” says Jessica. Yet she never considered it a career option. “That seemed like something people did in fairy tales, and I would never let my parents down,” she says.

It was her mom’s diagnosis of brain cancer in 2009 that made Jessica realize she had to write her own happy-ever-after. “Work was busy and my mother was ailing. So I was flying back and forth from Washington, DC to Houston to see her,” Jessica says. “I finally said, ‘Enough!’ and quit.” While caring for her mom, Jessica made a plan. She would spend her savings and study music for a year, and then open a part-time law practice so she could pursue her passion. Before her mother passed away two years later, she encouraged Jessica to follow her dream. Her song Live This Life was inspired by her mom, and her dad came to watch her perform at clubs.

In 2012, Jessica moved to Nashville to try singing and songwriting. A decade of presenting cases in court gave her the confidence to sing for a crowd. “At 20, I would have been too shy to perform,” says Jessica.

“Doing music is so free,” Jessica says. “There’s no pressure to be a star. Success, to me, isn’t a dollar amount or a record deal; it’s doing what I love.”

1.Which of the following is TRUE?

A. Jessica didn’t really like working as a lawyer.

B. Jessica didn’t know what she truly loved for ten years.

C. Jessica wasn’t satisfied with the pay she got as a lawyer.

D. Jessica was grateful for her parents’ arrangement for her.

2.What does the underlined word “ailing” in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Sick. B. Crazy.

C. Worried. D. Unhappy.

3.What was Jessica’s mother’s attitude toward her singing?

A. Unknown. B. Doubtful.

C. Supportive. D. Negative.

4.By telling Jessica’s story, the writer most probably wants to _______.

A. encourage us to pursue our dreams

B. show that singing can be a practical career

C. tell us the importance of choosing a right job

D. show that family members’ support is important

When I was ten my dad helped me buy my first ten-speed bicycle from Allen. I put up $60 of my grass cutting and snow shoveling (鏟) money and my dad put up the other half I would pay him back over the next six months. Although it was not in the latest style, it was my ticket to the adult world.

I spent that summer and autumn riding happily. My sister Liz, a prisoner(囚犯,俘虜) of her five-speed bicycle, never had a chance to keep up. Just before the Christmas deadline to pay my dad back, we were hit with several snowstorms. This allowed me to shovel enough driveways (車道) to pay off my debt. I was now officially a bike owner; it was a feeling unlike any other.

On that Christmas morning, my dad gave me a used portable (便攜式的) record player. I was excited. However, my joy was short-lived after my dad called my sister to the kitchen. “We have one more gift for you. ” he said as he opened the door that led to the garage. There, on the steps, stood a new ten-speed bicycle.

“It’s not fair,” I complained. “I worked so hard for my bike. and it’s not even new. Then Liz gets a new bike. She didn’t have to do anything for it. ” My dad smiled. “She didn’t have to do anything for it because it’s not really for her,” he said. What did that mean? I didn’t want her bike.

By spring Liz and I were riding all over town together now that she could keep up. As we grew, Liz and I became true friends.

Still I wasn’t smart enough to figure out what my dad meant until years later. That new bike was not a gift for Liz — it was a gift for me. He’d given me the gift of my sister’s company, the ability to stay together rather than drift apart (逐漸疏遠(yuǎn)) in the face of my ability to travel. He gave me my best friend.

 

1.What do we know about the author’s bike?

A. It was worth $120. B. Allen bought it for him.

C. It was very fashionable. D. He didn’t like it actually.

2.Why did the author think he was officially a bike owner?

A. He had paid off his debt.

B. He had learned to ride a bike.

C. He could also own Liz’s bike.

D. He could sell his bike to Liz.

3.Why was the author’s Christmas joy short-lived?

A. His sister got a new record player.

B. His father didn’t care about him.

C. The record player wasn’t new.

D. His sister got a better gift.

4.Hearing his father say “it’s not really for her (Paragraph 4)”, the author probably felt ________.

A. moved B. satisfied C. puzzled D. disappointed

5.The author finally realized that ________.

A. the new bike actually belonged to him

B. the new bike wasn’t bought by his father

C. his father actually gave him a more valuable gift

D. his father loved his sister more as a matter of fact

As any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than food. Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more.

Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping(錄像) the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children. But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents’ efforts to control the loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. “In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the children’s IQ scores,” Lewis says. “And the more children there are, the less question-asking there is.”

The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings(兄弟姐妹). Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention. “Middle children are invisible,” says Lewis. “When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are it’s the middle child.” There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation and prevents anyone from having attention: “When the TV is on,” Lewis says, “dinner is a non-event.”

1..The writer’s purpose in writing the text is to _________.

A. report on the findings of a study

B. teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner table

C. show the relationship between parents and children

D. give information about family problems

2..Parents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner because ____________.

A. they are busy serving food to their children

B. they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family

C. they have to pay more attention to younger children

D. they are busy keeping order at the dinner table

3..By saying “Middle children are invisible” in paragraph 3, Lewis means that middle children ______.

A. have to help their parents to serve dinner

B. find it hard to keep up with other children

C. are often kept away from the dinner table

D. get the least attention from the family

4..Lewis’ research provides an answer to the question _________.

A. why TV is important in family life

B. why middle children seem to have more difficulties in life

C. why children in small families seem to be quieter

D. why parents should keep good order

5..Which of the following statements would the writer agree to?

A. Parents should talk to each of their children frequently.

B. It is a good idea to have the TV on during dinner.

C. It is important to have the right food for children.

D. Elder children should help the younger ones at dinner
