Probably many of you know the idiom “an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth”. But do you believe a tooth for an eye? That’s something a little bit different.
This strange exchange is neither a form of retribution(報(bào)應(yīng)) nor an unexpected gift from the Tooth Fairy --- it’s actually a very generous gift from a young Irishman, Robert McNichol, 23, to his formerly blind father, 57-year-old Bob McNichol.
In 2005, Bob McNichol’s sight was destroyed in an accident when his eyes were doused(濺在……上面)with liquid aluminum(鋁). Doctors predicted that he would never be able to see again.
But McNichol never liked to take no for an answer: when he heard about a unique operation called Osteo-Odonto-Keratoprosthesis, he knew he had to give it a shot, even though the success rate was a mere 65 percent.
In the technique, the eye socket(眼窩) is rebuilt and implanted(植入) with a human tooth and part of the jawbone, to provide support for an artificial cornea(角膜). Luckily for McNichol, Robert was willing to sacrifice one of his teeth to help his father regain his sight.
The technique isn’t simple: McNichol’s first stint on the operating table lasted ten hours, with a five hour follow-up session at a later date. But thanks to his son’s gift, he’s already seeing astonishing results.
“Now I have enough sight for me to get around and I can watch television. I have come out from complete darkness.” he told his friends.
Bob McNichol lost his sight ____ .
A. after he had an operation on his eyes
B. because of an accident
C. because he met with a serious traffic accident
D. when he was 57 years old
The underlined phrase “give it a shot” (in Paragraph 4) probably means “____”.
A. give it a try B. make a remark C. fire a gun D. kick the ball
The tooth Bobert donated to his father is used to ____ .
A. make the eye socket look prettier B. cause his jawbone to function well
C. help his father take in more food D. support the implanted artificial cornea
What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Father and son B. A unique eye operation
C. A man defeating darkness D. Blind man sees with aid of son’s tooth

An 18-year-old high school student who had just learned to swim in the last summer vacation saved the life of a drowning Ohio boy on Friday afternoon.
Tom Erickson was credited with (因......而受贊揚(yáng))saving the life of Jason Pryor,10, in Mill Creek (小河) Park. Young Jason Pryor, from Chillicothe, was visiting relatives from Anchor Point when he fell into Mill Creek.
The Pryor boy had no business playing near the edge of the river, but he had no idea of the danger.
The creek, with much more water than usual for the recent spring rains, flowed fast and carried the boy around a bend and out of sight from his parents, who took Jason out there and said they had not even witnessed the incident.
Luckily for Jason, one of the most unselfish students from Brentwood’s Central High School was taking a walk alone through the park.
As soon as he found the boy struggling in the water, Erickson jumped into the creek and managed to pull the drowning boy out of the water. And it was reported that Erickson had never received any life-saving instruction before.
“I wasn’t sure I could do it,” Erickson said. “I didn’t know if I could swim through the river by myself, not to mention getting another person out with me.”
This incident should be a lesson to young children who do not know how to swim. Stay away from dangerous bodies of water.
【小題1】 Young Jason Pryor lives at _______.
A.Anchor Point | B.Chillicothe, Ohio | C.Mill Creek | D.Brentwood |
A.Life-saving instruction helped a lot in the incident. |
B.Jason’s parents saw him fall into the creek but couldn’t help. |
C.The creek flowed fast because it was very straight without any bends. |
D.Erickson was not sure if he could save the boy when jumping into the creek. |
A.The accident was none of the boy’s business. |
B.The boy had no friends to play with him. |
C.The boy shouldn’t have played near the creek. ks5*u |
D.The boy was very busy and had no time to play. |
A.Did You Know the Danger of Water | B.Be Responsible Parents |
C.The Fast Running Mill Creek | D.Beginning Swimmer Saved Drowning Boy |

Ball Management
Players should always keep a tennis ball in their hand or pocket during a match. Even the most patient tennis players despise waiting for their opponent to find a ball to serve(發(fā)球).
Behavior & Attitude
Even if you’re playing badly, you should not shout or look depressed in a friendly match. Undoubtedly, your attitude affects how you play, so try to have fun and stay positive.
Pace
Do not deliberately slow the game down. Play at the pace of the server and look ready. Servers also should not rush to start each point. You should re-do the point if you serve the ball before the receiver is ready. The receiver is out of luck, however, if he claims he was not ready after making an attempt at returning the serve.
For Spetators(觀眾)
Cheering
While it is seen as proper etiquette(禮儀)to remain silent during the live play, loud and spirited cheers are welcome after a hard-earned point. The players appreciate the recognition for their efforts and are encouraged to continue playing at a high level when the crowd is actively involved.
Leaving and returning to your seat
During live play it’s expected that all spectators will remain seated until the next break between games. Movements in the stands(看臺) can serve as a distraction(分心的事物) to the players and can also block the view of other audience.
Photography
The issue of camera shutter(快門) noise has earned a lot of attention in golf, but luckily for tennis fans it’s much less of a concern on the court. While the noise produced by the camera is not seen as a major issue, flash photography should be avoided during live play.
1.During warm-ups, tennis player ______________.
A. ought to hit a full pace
B. can place their shots anywhere
C. should not practice competitively
D. had better run around the whole court
2.According to the text, during tennis matches, _____________________.
A. players can slow the game down when tired
B. players don’t have to keep a ball in their hand
C. the receiver shouldn’t return the serve if not ready
D. loud cheers are not allowed even after hard-earned points
3.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ____________________.
A. flash photography is acceptable on the golf court
B. tennis fans can use flash photography during matches
C. the noise from cameras is not permitted in tennis matches
D. tennis matches require a less degree of quiet than golf ones
4.What’s the text mainly about?
A. Some tips for tennis players to win a match.
B. What to do while watching tennis matches.
C. How to behave properly in tennis matches.
D. Rules tennis players must obey in matches.
