【題目】 A father who spent his life admiring Superman had his own superhero moment recently, although it came just after his death, when he saved two lives by giving away his kidneys ().

Chris Kmetz, a 41-year-old Washington father of two, fell into a pond on Feb. 23 while he was driving home. When doctors told his wife, Jackie Kmetz, that her husband wouldn't make it, she changed him into a "Superdad" shirt and put their two kids, 2-year-old Madelyn and 4-year-old Dexter, in their own Superman clothes to say goodbye. Chris Kmetz died on Feb. 28, 2015.

"During his childhood, Chris was introduced to picture books, and Superman became his first love," Jackie says. Chris kept over 1,000 such picture books in his bedroom and dressed as Superman every Halloween, and even sent videos telling superhero stories to his kids when he couldn't be home to put them to bed.

Before his death, Chris cared a lot about organ(器官) donation , Jackie says. In fact, one of their usual conversations was the fact that they were both ready to be donors. "It was very clear in the first few hours after Chris's accident that the damage to his brain was deadly, so I talked to the doctors about that because it was something very important to Chris," Jackie says.

Not all donors are able to save lives. Only one percent of hospital deaths meet the standards of organ donation, but Chris was one of them. Jackie said their children didn't yet know about their father's last act of kindness, but she will share his great stories with them later. "I'll make copies of the videos and news stories so we can see how heroic he was," she says.

Many people seem to know well about the rain forests. Some people even go to the rain forests to spend some of their time trying to make friends with the plants and animals there. The scientists are actually hard at work studying the plants that grow in the very top level of a rain forest. Rain forests are one of the richest environments on Earth. They are home to millions of species of plants and animals. The red research raft provides scientists with a platform from which to study life in the treetops. Scientists can even sleep on the raft, so they can stay up in the treetops for days at a time.

Rain forests cover only about 6 percent of Earth's land surface. However, they contain more than half of the plant species on Earth. Many of these plants provide useful medicines to use against human diseases. In fact, about 25 percent of prescription medicines in the United States are based on chemicals from rain forest plants. Scientists think that many new medicines might be developed from plants that are yet to be discovered.

Unluckily, rain forests are disappearing. Rain forest trees are being cut down for wood. Huge chunks of the forests are cleared to provide land for farm animals and crops. Scientists haven't identified all the plants in these forests yet. Some scientists think thousands of kinds of plants that we'll never even know about are being destroyed each year.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,完成下列小題。

1Is it difficult for scientists to study the rain forest plants?

2Where probably is the red research raft?

3How much of Earth's land surface do rain forests cover?

4What do many of the rain forest plants mainly provide?

5Do you think that scientists will be able to know all about the rain forest plants? Why or why not?

Jamie got a new camera(照相機(jī)) for her birthday. She liked taking pictures, but this time, she wanted to do something special. She was going on a trip with her family to Washington D.C. Along the way, she wanted to take pictures to remember her trip.

The first place they stopped along the way was a beach in North Carolina. The sky was blue and the water was clear. She took great pictures of the sky and the sea. She really enjoyed swimming in the salty sea water, too.

Next, they moved along to Washington D.C. There were lots of things to see. There were museums and all kinds of buildings. She took many pictures of the buildings.

With only a few quick stops in museums and at a few parks on the way home, Jamie filled her camera completely. Finally, it was time to go home. It was hard to go, but she knew there would be more trips to wonderful places like Washington D.C.

Next year she hopes to go to the West. She wants to see the Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon. Maybe she could see some of the Rocky Mountains. With a camera, there will be no end to what she wants to see, because each trip and each place is a new set of pictures!
