Ricochet, a 19-month-old golden retriever(金毛尋回犬), was bred(飼養(yǎng)) to be a service dog but never made it. Now, she has found her role in the ocean, surfing with a disabled teen.

Patrick Ivison, 15, suffered a severe injury in a car accident when he was 14 months old. He has been disabled since, but the Californian boy never gave up on the goal of walking. He recently took his first steps. When Ivison first met Ricochet, the two immediately hit it off. To raise money for Ivison’s physical therapy(治療), which is not covered by insurance, it was suggested that the pair take up surfing. Ivison said that when he first heard the idea he thought, “We are completely out of our minds.”

But from the start, the two took to surfing naturally. With the help of his mom, Jennifer Kayler, and friends, who carry Patrick to the ocean and guide the extra-large surfboard into the waters, Ivison rides the waves with his pal standing on the back. “It’s kind of like a grand performance out there,” Ivison said of the group of people who help him out. The dog helps to balance out the board The teen remembered one pass when “we were about to flip over and then she stepped on that side of the board and helped us out.”

The two participated Sunday in the Surf City Surf Dog contest as a fund-raiser(募集資金者). They wowed the cheering crowd during their exhibition. The event raised $8,200. About $2,000 will go toward a service dog for Ivison, and the rest will go toward his “Help Patrick Walk” therapy fund.

Pop music is the name for different forms of popular, commercial(商業(yè)) music. It had its beginning in the USA and spread throughout the whole world during the 1950s and 1960s. It is widely liked by the young people. The best known early form of pop music was “rock’ n’ roll”; another was “blues”. A more recent development is “folk-rock”. Pop music has taken the place of native music in many parts of the world; it has caused the number of people for jazz to become much smaller than it was in the 1950s and earlier, and it has now begun to rule musical stage productions. It’s a big industry. Much pop music is without artistic value, but the work of some pop singers, e.g. the Beatles, Bob Dylan, the groups like Floyd and Crosby, Stills and Nash, is on a higher musical level. And there is still a great interest in it today. Pop music concerts and festivals are held all over the world.

閱讀理解。
                                                              History has arrived
      Nine-year-old Barack Obama was looking through magazine. But the African-America boy was shocked by
a series of photos. The pictures were of a black man who destroyed his skin with chemicals that promised to
make him white.
     For the first time, the boy began to doubt who he was. "I stood in front of the mirror and wondered if
something was wrong with me," Obama said.
     However, now the boy who used to struggle with his identity doesn't see it as a problem any more, but an
advantage for his career. Last week, Obama made history by being elected as the first black president of the
US. He defeated John MaCain in a landslide (壓倒性的) victory.
     Obama's story starts in opposite corners of the world. His white mother was born in the heartland of the
US. His black father grew up in a tiny village in Kenya. They met during in Hawaii, but his father left the family when Obama was just two years old and his mother moved to Indonesia.
     At 10, Obama moved back to live with his white grandparents in Hawaii where his sense that he didn't
belong grew. At his class a white boy asked Obama if his father ate people. Out of embarrassment, Obama lied
to his classmates that his father was prince, "I kept asking who I am and I ended up trying drugs and
drinking," Obama recalled.
     Things came to change after the young man made friends with those with a similar background at college.
Their experiences back in Africa helped Obama to finally face up to his African origin. He worked hard to
become a star at Harvard Law School and the third black senator (參議院) in US history.
     At the beginning of his campaign for the White House, few people viewed Obama favorably (贊同地).
Many doubted his unusual background, which left him neither "black" enough nor white enough.
     But Obama turned his pain of growing up into a tool to make Americans believe: "There is not a black
America, an Asian America. There's the United States of America."
     Barack Obama's victory is "a historic victory that promised change and overcame centuries of prejudice
(偏見). His success fulfilled Martin Luther King's dream that a man he judged not by the color of his skin, but
by the content of his character," wrote ABC news.
1. From the above passage we can know that Barack Obama was born in ______.
