A 12-year old boy who donated bone marrow (骨髓) to his dying sister and has raised more than£10,000 for charity has been named the UK’s Family Hero of the Year.
Adam Kerr, 12, from Armagh, Northern Ireland, also helps his mother care for his younger brother Brian, 9, who suffers from the genetic disease Fanconi’s anaemia (贫血症). But it is not the first hardship that has affected young Adam. When he was just six, he donated his own bone marrow to his younger sister Helen who suffered from a rare blood disorder. Sadly she developed complications and died a few months after the operation in 2005.

The Awards were sponsored by the charity 4Children and Take a Break Magazine. Anne Longfield OBE, Chief Executive of 4Children said:“It’s an honour to recognise Adam’s devotion and self-sacrifice, and his bravery shows there is always reason for hope and optimism. There is so much unrecognized goodwill out there of people who do so much for others, and the inspiring winners of the Family Heroes Awards remind us how important it is for us all to do our best to make a difference in the lives of others.”

An Israeli law banning too skinny models went into effect with the start of 2013. The law, approved last March in Israel, requires models to prove they have maintained a Body Mass Index (BMI) of at least 18.5 for three months before a fashion show. That means a woman who is 5'8''tall can weigh no less than 119 pounds.
“This law is another step in the war against eating disorders,” said physician Adatto. “Underweight models,” he explained, “can no longer serve as role models for innocent young people who copy their false image of being skinny.”
But some critics in this country say it is misguided, focusing on weight instead of health. They also say the Israeli ban is bound to fail because of the strong power of the fashion industry. “I think it’s an approach that isn’t going to work.” Said eating disorder expert Susan Ice, who worked with an organization which creates a healthy working environment for models.
But Adatto told the reporter that he began to concern the issue after meeting an ambitious model who looked like she needed to be hospitalized. He said. “I realized that only legislation can change the situation. There was no time to waste, so many girls were dieting to death.”
However, the efforts to regulate models’ weight in Spain and Italy have not resulted in significant changes in part because of difficulties in determining reliable methods of measuring weight and health.
Still, folks including Ice say there’s no denying that images from Hollywood and the fashion industry can be difficult for young women to deal with. “Certainly I don't believe the modeling industry has caused the rise in eating disorders, but it makes it harder,” she says. “It’s a difficult recovery environment, worshiping thinness as the beauty ideal.”
What does BMI in the first paragraph refer to?

A.A measure of body health based on height and weight.
B.A worldwide prize for the healthiest model.
C.A new show held by those skinny models.
D.A kind of medicine to cure eating disorders.

One benefit the new Israeli law may bring is ________.

A.to change the working conditions of models
B.to lower the chance of skinny models’ death
C.to prevent models from suffering from eating disorders
D.to provide guidance for women worshiping thinness

In the opinion of the critics, the law won’t succeed because         .

A.it misleads young women to form a bad eating habit
B.the fashion industry is much too influential
C.it doesn’t provide a proper approach that can work well
D.it doesn’t create a healthy working environment for models

What caused Adatto to think that a law was needed to change the situation?

A.Establishing his fashion model agent.
B.Meeting an ambitious but too skinny model.
C.Being interviewed by a reporter.
D.Seeing a model die from eating disorders.

According to the passage, the new Israeli law banning skinny models is         .

A.practical B.acceptable
C.reasonable D.Controversial

Being a senior high school student, my future is always on my mind. To be exact, thoughts of the future have kept me up countless nights and made me worry enough to do poorly on more than one test. Because of this, words of wisdom are a source of comfort. Steve Jobs gave a speech to Stanford’s graduating class in 2005 and his words resound repeatedly in my mind whenever I think about my future.
It started when I became a junior, when college came into view. It’s the first big step to making your life your own. So when Jobs discussed his life as a student, some fears were eased. He also felt the need to attend college to make something of himself. He faced what many are extremely afraid of: uncertainty. His lack of understanding caused him to stop attending college and focus on what he felt was important. His story had a happy ending, of course, since he certainly turned out well.
This doesn’t mean that students shouldn’t attend college, but rather that they shouldn’t worry so much. You'll get where you need to go, even if your path is a bit more winding than you'd like.
Jobs talked about the hardships in his work. His love of his work helped him carry on and he got where he was meant to be, which restates the point: don’t panic. One particular part of his speech stayed with me. Steve Jobs quoted the saying “Stay hungry, stay foolish” and it has become my motto. Staying foolish is realizing that you are still a fool, no matter how much you've learned or experienced. There is always more to explore. Staying hungry is wanting to find those things about which you are still uneducated.
Steve Jobs’ level of success is possible to achieve, and I aim to prove that. With the will power to go into the world living every day like it’s my last and allowing the future to take care of itself, I will do great things. In the last moments of my life, I’ll be proud of what I have done and hope to have all the wisdom a person could wish for.
The author felt worried when_______.

A.he had to take tests at school
B.he had lots of sleepless nights
C.he thought about his future
D.he searched for words of wisdom

It is suggested in Paragraphs l and 2 that________.

A.the author is a college student
B.the author cares much about his future
C.Steve Jobs failed because of his decision
D.Steve Jobs' words had no effect on the author

What did the author gain from Jobs’ speech?

A.Courage to drop out of school
B.Confidence in defeating Jobs.
C.Interest in computer industry.
D.Bravery to face uncertainties.

Which of the following suggestions was NOT mentioned in Job’s speech ?

A.Being content with what they know.
B.Having the desire to learn more.
C.Staying calm in the face of hardships
D.Being modest so as to learn more.

The passage is mainly about_______.

A.an experience of a speech

American teenager Thomas Cheatham had planned to study Latin during his sophomore year at Hebron High School in Texas. But when he learned that the school district was going to offer a Mandarin class, he quickly changed his mind. “I thought it (Mandarin) would be more beneficial than Latin,” said Cheatham, who is now in his second year of studying the language.
He speaks Mandarin to order food at Chinese restaurants and can read Face book posts from his Chinese-speaking friends.
While it’a difficult language to master, the high school junior, who plans to study computer engineering, thinks it will be a valuable thing in his career.
“Chinese is a good language to know, especially with China becoming a growing power,” he said.
Many experts agree that proficiency in a language spoken by a billion people worldwide will give American students an edge in the global economy.
“People are looking at China as our next economic competitor, and interest in Mandarin is growing,'' said Marty Abbott, executive director of the American Council on the Teaching of  Foreign Languages. ''We're seeing it in all parts of the country.”
The number of students studying Mandarin in public schools nationwide in grades 7 through 12 grew from 20,000 in 2004-2005 to 60,000 three years later, according to the council’s most recent survey.
Abbott estimates that as many as 100,000 students are now studying Mandarin, in public and private schools, throughout the nation.
She said the US government has considered Mandarin to be an “important needs” language and provides professional development programs for teachers.
“Our government wants to increase our language ability for national security and economic competitiveness,” Abbott said.
At the same time, the Chinese government is spreading knowledge of the Chinese language and culture through Confucius Institutes established in many states.
The Confucius Institute at the University of Texas in Dallas, founded in 2007, opens Confucius Classrooms at 11 local public and private schools where more than 700 students are learning Mandarin.
Why does the writer mention Thomas in the passage?

A.To tell us how changeable he is.
B.To introduce the topic of the passage.
C.To introduce his college life.
D.To tell us Latin is less popular now.

Many experts in America agree that _______.

A.Mandarin is becoming more beneficial than Latin
B.Mandarin is very difficult to learn for most American students
C.Mandarin will be of some help to American students in the global economy
D.China is a competitor of America in culture

Why does Mandarin become so popular in America?

A.Because Mandarin is more interesting than Latin.
B.Because there are many good teachers in the Confucius Institutes.
C.Because Mandarin is very helpful in the global economy.
D.Because the Chinese government has tried his best.

From the passage we know that the Confucius Institutes _______.

A.have trained 100,000 students to learn Mandarin in America
B.provide professional development programs for teachers
C.have been established in many states in America
D.were founded in 2007

What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.An increasing number of students in America are learning Mandarin.
B.Confucius Institutes have been established in many states in America.
C.Latin is less popular in America now.
D.China now is becoming a growing power.

Nuclear power’s danger to health, safety, and even life itself can be summed up in one word: radiation.
Nuclear radiation has a certain mystery about it, partly because it cannot be detected by human senses. It can’t be seen or heard, or touched or tasted, even though it may be all around us. There are other things like that. For example, radio waves are all around us but we can’t detect them, sense them, without a radio receiver. Similarly, we can’t sense radioactivity without a radiation detector. But unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other living things.
At very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being immediately by killing masses of cells in vital organs. But even the lowest levels can do serious damage. There is no levels of radiation that is completely safe. If the radiation does not hit anything important, the damage may not be serious. This is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are killed immediately. Your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. But if the few cells are only damaged, and if they reproduce themselves, you may be in trouble. They can grow into cancer. Sometimes this does not show up for many years.
This is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation. Serious damage can be done without the victim being aware at the time that damage has occurred. A person can be irradiated(辐射)and feel fine, then die for cancer five, ten, or twenty years later as a result. Or a child can be born weak as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents.
Radiation can hurt us. We must know the truth.
What is the most dangerous factor of nuclear power?

A.Radiation B.Quantity
C.Amount D.Place

Which of the following statements is true?

A.Nuclear radiation can do harm to human beings.
B.Nuclear radiation cannot do harm to human beings.
C.Nuclear radiation can be detected by human senses.
D.Nuclear radiation is just like common radio waves.

How can nuclear radiation kill an animal?

A.By damaging its heart.
B.By killing a few cells.
C.By killing many cells in important organs.
D.By hitting any place in its body.

Why does nuclear radiation have a certain mystery?

A.Because human beings learn its harmfulness.
B.Because it can do harm to a person while the victim isn't aware the damage has occurred.
C.Because nuclear radiation can kill a person very easily.
D.Because human beings have no effective machine in order to detect nuclear radiation.

If a human being is hit by nuclear radiation, he may _______.

A.die of cancer after many years
B.die immediately
C.have a child who may be born weak
D.all of the above

Nearly everyone agrees that money doesn’t buy as much as it used to, no matter when you want to spend it. This is certainly true of the paper money that passes so quickly through one’s hands. But what about coins that seem to do very little except stay in purses and pockets? Unlike notes, metal money becomes more valuable the longer it is held, especially if it is put away where it won’t get scratched or worn. Why is this? One reason is that coins, being more durable, fall more readily into a category for collectors. Naturally, the rarer gold pieces must become more valuable as the price of this metal goes up.
But, curiously, one of the rarest coins in the world is not made of gold, but of the relatively cheaper silver. In 1840, the United States mint (造币厂) struck 19570 silver dollars. That is what its records show. Today only six of this original number remain and these are unlikely ever to reach the auction (拍卖) market. So what happened to some 19564 large silver coins, not the easiest sort of things to lose? One of the more romantic theories is that they were part of the payment to Napoleon for the American land then known as Louisiana. But they never reached France. Somewhere in the Gulf of Mexico, the ship transporting them was sunk, either by a storm or by pirates. The probable answer to the mystery is that they were melted down — since the silver value was greater than the actual value of the coin. What really happened to the rest will probably always remain a mystery. What is known is that whoever can come up with one will find himself instantly rich.
We can learn from the passage that _______.

A.money buys as much as it did before
B.money does not buy as much as it did before
C.paper money buys more than metal money
D.metal money buys more than paper money

Which of the following is true of a coin?

A.The longer it is held, the less valuable it becomes.
B.The more it wears out, the more valuable it becomes.
C.The less it gets scratched, the less it values.
D.The longer it lasts, the more it values.

According to this passage, one of the rarest coins in the world is made of _______.

A.silver B.gold
C.copper D.paper

Coins become more valuable because _______.

A.they stay in purses and pockets
B.the price of metal goes up
C.they fall more readily into a category for collectors due to their duration
D.Both B and C

What really happened to some 19564 large silver coins?

A.They were melted down.
B.They were sunk in the Gulf of Mexico.
C.It is still a mystery.
D.They were stolen by pirates.

[1]Although known as an extraordinarily successful businessman, Warren Buffet comes off as a pretty ordinary person.
[2]Looking back on his childhood, one can see how serious he was about making money. Buffet used to go door-to-door and sell soda pop. Later, he also worked at his grandfather’s grocery store. At the ripe age of 11, Buffet bought his first stock(股票). When his family moved to Washington D.C., Buffet became a paperboy for The Washington Post. While still in school, he was making $175 a month, a full-time wage for many young men.
[3]From the beginning, Buffet made his fortune from investing. He started with all the money that he had made from selling pop, delivering papers and so on. Between 1950 and l956, he grew his $9, 800 to $14, 000.From there, he organized investment partnerships with his family and friends, and then gradually drew in more people through very attractive terms.
[4]Buffet applied to Harvard Business School but         , making it to be one of the worst admission decisions in Harvard history. The outcome ended up affecting Buffet’s life deeply, for he ended up attending Columbia Business School, where he studied under Benjamin Graham, the father of securities analysis who provided the foundation for Buffet’s grand success.
[5]Buffet is a person of habit—same house, same office, same city. He doesn’t collect houses or cars or works of art, and he hates companies that waste money on such goods. Instead, he has established the Buffet Foundation, with a detailed plan on how to invest his money more wisely to society.
