As we drove across town, I prepared my two children for what they were about to see. A lady from our new church was dying of cancer, and I had volunteered to help her with the house-work. “Annie has a tumor(腫瘤) in her head, which has disfigured(損毀…的外形) her face,” I warned.

I struggled for the words to describe Annie’s appearance to my son and daughter. Then I remembered a movie I’d seen with my son. I wanted him to understand that disabled people are like anyone else—their feelings can be hurt, too.

“David, remember the movie Mask about the boy with the facial deformity(畸形)?”

“Yes, Mom. I think I know what to expect.” His tone(語氣) told me it was time to stop mothering him so much.

“What does a tumor look like?” Diane asked me.

I didn’t want to frighten the child, so I prepared her just enough but not too much.

“Her tumor looks like the skin on the inside of your mouth. It sticks out from under her tongue and makes it hard for her to talk. You’ll see it as soon as you meet her, but there’s nothing to be afraid of. Remember, don’t stare.” Diane nodded. I knew she was trying to picture a tumor in her mind.

We entered the living room, where Annie was sitting in her chair. At the sight of my children, Annie’s face brightened. “Oh, I’m so glad you came to visit,” she said toughly.

David walked across the room to Annie’s chair, put his arms around her shoulders and pressed his cheek to her face. Smiling, he looked into her eyes and said, “I’m happy to meet you.” Just when I didn’t think I could be more proud, Diane copied her big brother and gave Annie the precious, accepting hug of a child. My throat tightened with emotion as I saw Annie’s eyes well up with grateful tears.

1.From the mother’s description, we know that________ .

A. Annie was optimistic

B. Annie liked children

C. Annie suffered a lot

D. Annie wore a mask

2.What does the underlined word “picture” in paragraph 7 mean?

A. imagine B. draw C. create D. make

3.The mother prepared her children for what they would see because ________ .

A. she wanted to comfort Annie

B. Annie didn’t want to be offended

C. she didn’t want the children to be frightened

D. the children were much too excited

4.What’s the best title of this passage?

A new report says plastics are responsible for $13 billion in damage to the oceans and the undersea environment. The findings were announced recently at a United Nations conference． 1. .

Plastic thrown away carelessly makes its way into rivers and other waterways. 2. . After a while, it collects in the sea. And plastic never goes away. Plastic is not biodegradable—destroyed by bacteria or natural processes. Instead, it just breaks up into smaller pieces over time. The oceans contain a lot of chemicals and other pollutants(污染物). 3. .That means harmful material may get into our food supply.

4. . Human beings cause pollution and they can take steps to stop it. They can use fewer single use product containers and throw plastics away correctly. Plastic recycling programs also works—where old bottles and other plastics are collected, broken down and used to make new products. We could reuse bottles in our households many times if we wish to, rather than end it after the first use. We could, when we get rid of that plastic, recycle it and reuse it, which replaces the need for raw materials.

The report also calls on companies to improve methods for using plastics. 5. . And it calls for information about the way plastic is thrown out or removed from use. By putting a new value on plastic, industry has a special reason to clean up the environment.

But all of the companies must join to deal with the problem.

A. Then, fish may eat the plastics.

B. But people can make a big difference.

C. Plastics should be gathered together and reused.

D. It is convenient to use plastic bags in everyday life.

E. It asks for them to better measure and control plastic use.

F. The plastic eventually reaches coastal areas and ocean waters.

G. The report tells about harm to sea life and what might be done to improve the situation.

Walk down the drinks section at the supermarket.Look in the drink cooler in your local convenience store.A new drink is taking up more and more space on the shelves，and that drink is water.Bottled water sales in the US rose to 1.7 billion gallons in 2010 for plastic bottles alone，compared to total sales of only 700 million gallons in 1990. Whereas bottled water was once associated only with the rich and the privileged (特權(quán)階層)，it is now regularly drunk by people at all income levels despite the fact that the price of bottled water can be between 240 and 10,000 times higher per gallon than tap water.What accounts for this surprising increase in demand?

Traditionally，people have drunk bottled water for health reasons.The practice of “taking the waters” originated with the Romans，who believed that a person developed a healthy mind by building a healthy body.Across Europe，drinking or bathing in mineral water has been associated with the power to cure various diseases.Health spas at Evian in France and Pellegrino in Italy began bottling water so that their consumers could continue their treatments at home.The consumers in the 21st century are also concerned about health.However，in America，where the habit of drinking bottled water is relatively new，the concern is often more related to the purity or sterilization (消毒) of the water than to its mineral contents.Americans are often worried about the effects of the chemical pollution and other contaminants on the water supply.Many Americans view bottled water as a safe alternative to tap water.

Further reasons for drinking bottled water are its usefulness as an aid to digestion，as a complement to a good meal in a restaurant，and for taste.City tap water is often treated with chlorine (氯) to guard against harmful micro?organisms.Chlorine，as well as metals from pipes and tanks used to distribute and store tap water，can leave behind an unpleasant taste.

1.Which of the following statements is true?

A．Bottled water was once drunk both by the rich and the poor.

B．Bottled water sales have risen，for it’s cheaper than tap water.

C．Europeans believed in the power of treatment of mineral water.

D．Americans have had the habit of drinking bottled water for long.

2.People prefer bottled water because________.

A．it does good to their health

B．it has chlorine to make it taste good

C．it contains no mineral pollution at all

D．it’s a practice originated with the Romans

3.The underlined word “contaminants” most probably means________.

A．pollutants B．micro?organisms

C．chemicals D．minerals

4.Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?

A．How Bottled Water Originated

B．“Taking the Waters” Has Been Practiced for Long

C．What’s the Safe Alternative to Tap Water

D．Why Bottled Water Sales Increase

The common cold is the world’s most widespread illness,which is probably why there are more myths about it than any of the other illnesses.

The most widespread mistake of all is that colds are caused by cold. They are not. They are caused by viruses passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by coming into contact, directly or indirectly, with someone who already has one. If cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos to suffer from them forever. But they do not. And in distant and isolated Arctic regions explorers have reposed being free from colds until coming into contact again with infected(感染的) people from the outside world by way of packages and mail dropped from airplanes．

At the Common Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers took part in experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long periods of time．After taking hot baths，they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be doused(浸入) with cold water, and then stood about dripping wet in drafty(通風(fēng)的) room. Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to complete tiredness. Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose．

If,then,cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent in the winter? Despite the most pains—taking research, no one has yet found the answer. One explanation offered by scientists is that people are more likely to stay together indoors in cold weather than at other times, and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on．

No one has yet found a cure for the cold. There are drugs and pain suppressors(止痛片) such as aspirin,but all they do is to relieve the symptoms．

1.The fact that the Eskimos don’t suffer colds shows that ________.

A. colds are really full of myths

B. viruses are the factors causing colds

C. colds are more serious than other illnesses

D. the idea that cold leads to colds doesn’t stand up

2.The experiments mentioned in Paragraph 3 made it clear that ________.

A. it was viruses not wet and cold that made people have colds

B. taking hot baths made the volunteers easy to be tired

C. being doused with cold water did harm to one’s body

D. people who would like to exercise in the rain got colds more easily

3.According to the passage, colds are commonly seen in winter because ________.

A. staying together indoors makes it easier for viruses to pass on

B. viruses can go into people’s warm bodies more easily in winter

C. there is great difference between indoor and outdoor temperature

D. People are usually weak because of the extreme cold in winter

4.The passage mainly discusses ________.

A. the experiments on colds

B. the myths about colds

C. the reason and the way people catch colds

D. the continued spread of common colds
