In October 2013, Davion Only made an appeal on the Internet. He had learned that his biological mother had died not long before. ”My name is Davion and I've been in foster care (寄养照管) since I was born," he said, “but I'm not giving up hope. "
The heartbreaking appeal spread quickly, and Only's foster agency received calls from more than 10,000 people. Only ended up travelling to Ohio to live with a family. But after Only got into a physical fight with one of his elder would-be brothers, the family changed 3
their minds.
Back in Florida, Only passed through four different temporary homes over the following year, until he called Connie Going, his adoption case worker, to make a special request. Only had known Going for nearly ten years, and had asked every year if she would adopt him, but she always hesitated. “I always believed there was a better family than us out there," Going said in an interview. But last July, when Only called and asked again if she might adopt him, Going said something felt different. "When he asked me, my heart felt this ache and I just knew he was my son," she said.
So Going, 52, invited Only to start spending time with the rest of her family-her two daughters, Sydney, 21, and Carly 17, and a son Taylor, 14, who she also adopted out of
foster care. Eventually, after seeing how well the arrangement was working, Going, who had rented a bigger home, started adopting Only. Only moved in with her family last December. He officially joined Going's family on April 22, 2015 when the adoption papers went through. "Today, I feel blessed and honored to have been chosen to be the parent of all my children," Going said.
24. By making the appeal, Davion Only hoped that .
A. service in his foster agency would improve
B. his biological mother would come to him
C. a foster agency would accept him
D. he would be adopted by a family
25. Davion Only didn't live with the family in Ohio because .
A. he hated living with them
B. they finally refused to accept him
C. he has received another invitation
D. he often fought with his would-be brothers
26. What do we know from Paragraph 3?
A. Davion Only had fun living in different homes.
B. Connie Going had cared about Davion Only for over ten years.
C. Davion Only had a strong desire to be adopted by Connie Going.
D. Connie Going believed she would give Davion Only what he wanted.
27. After Davion Only joined Connie Going's family, .
A. Connie Going bought a bigger house
B. the four kids often had physical fights
C. Connie Going didn't regret her decision
D. another three kids were later adopted as well
C
Do you drink water that's been left sitting out overnight or even for another day? Have you noticed it tastes different?
Tap water that has been left to sit out slowly begins to acquire an off taste. Many people think that this is because of microorganisms(微生物). But that's not what makes old water taste not fresh. For that we can thank carbon dioxide. After about 12 hours, tap water starts to go flat as carbon dioxide in the air starts to mix with the water in the glass, lowering its pH and giving it an off taste. But it's most likely safe to drink.
However, back to those microorganisms. If you use a dirty glass day after day, there is 4
more of a chance of bacteria making themselves known; a risk that increases if you share the glass with another mouth as well. But assuming you use a fresh glass every few days, you probably won't have a problem unless the glass has been touched by dirty fingers, and especially if those dirty fingers went unwashed after using the bathroom.
As for plastic water bottles that have been left out in the sun or in the car, step away from the bottle, warns Dr. Kellogg Schwab, director of the Johns Hopkins University Water Institute. "A chemical called bisphenol-A, or BPA, along with other things used to make plastic can leach(过滤) into your water if the bottle heats up or sits in the sun," he explains. BPA, as you probably know, has been linked to everything from heart disease to cancer.
Schwab also adds that plastic used for commercial bottled water isn't meant to be washed or refilled, so use only one time and recycle. Or don't buy them at all; use refillable water bottles instead.
28. Tap water begin to acquire an off taste because of .
A. BPA B. the glass
C. the microorganism D. carbon dioxide
29. According to Paragragh 2 , tap water that's been left sitting out for 12 hours____.
A. tastes better B. is still safe to drink
C. contains few microorganisms D. is most likely undrinkable
30. What should we do with plastic water bottles that have been left out in the sun or in the car?
A. Throw them away. B. Refill them with fresh water.
C. Use them after they cool down. D. Clean them and use them again.
31. Which of the following is true about BPA?
A. It is safe for people to use. B. It is a kind of new material.
C. It can cause great harm to people. D. It is the main material to make plastic. D
To pollute or not to pollute? That is the question. In order to survive, we all need to cause pollution. Factories that process the food we eat, clothes we wear, and cars we drive have to cause pollution. The environment has the ability to absorb our waste or the pollution, but its absorption ability has its limits. If the pollution level is higher than what the
environment can cope with, then that's the time when pollution is bad.
If the pollution level becomes too high, human health can be affected badly. Then, the productivity level of the sick people is low and the economy suffers. The economy suffers not only because of the lost productivity of the people, but also because the government must pay for the damage the pollution has done to its people.
This is the reason why the government prefers taxation policy. Imposing【征收）a tax on firms that pollute the environment can be considered a good strategy, as long as the tax covers all the external costs or the cost of the damage the firm has created during production.
Taxation, if enforced（执行）really well, can make firms create a technology that may reduce pollution, if they find out that it will be cheaper than continuously paying the tax. The
disadvantage of this policy, however, lies in the possibility that some big firms will find the tax cheap and then they will just produce more and pollute the environment more. If other small firms find the tax expensive, thus closing down, their production will be eaten up by those firms which can afford the tax.
Therefore, it is important that lawmakers in each country, when deciding to impose a tax 5
on pollutant emissions, first review and analyze very carefully the real cost of the damage.
32. We can infer from the first paragraph that
A. for human beings pollution is unavoidable
B. it's not easy to figure out how bad pollution is
C. humans should reduce the use of everyday products
D. we can survive without causing pollution.
33. The underlined word "absorb" here refers to”____”．
A. reduce B. fit in C. avoid D. deal with
34. What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. The effects of pollution on human health.
B. The relationship between people and their government.
C. The effects of pollution on economic development.
D. The relationship between human health and economic development.
35. Which of the following can be the result of imposing a higher tax according to Paragraph 3 7
A. Firms may reduce the prices of their products.
B. Firms may develop some environmental technology.
C.A big firm will be broken up into small firms.
D.A small firm will try to pass the tax on to consumers.

Learning another language is an exciting trip into a new world, and it can take some time and effort to get there. Luckily, there are a few easy ways to make your adventure go a lot more smoothly.
Learn a little every day.
One of the keys to learning another language is practicing a little bit every day. Studying for long periods can wear you out and limit your focus. Starting with small but regular sessions is the best way to keep your grammar and vocabulary fresh in your mind. Practice out loud.
Pronunciation is key to learning another language and to making yourself understood by
native speakers. Read sentences aloud from books or magazines in the language you' re studying, or just read over your grammar exercises while you're practicing. You'll start to get used to the way the new words sound and feel.
Close the books.
From films to international websites, there are dozens of ways to encounter（遇到）other languages in the real world. Listen to international radio stations-many of them are streaming over the Internet-or look up the websites of newspapers in the language you're studying. You can keep learning another language while surfing the web or having a movie night with your friends!
Learning another language takes determination and perseverance, so keep practicing! Remember to review the basics as well as new vocabulary and grammar, since everything you learn will build on the foundation you start with.

Good morning, everyone!
I'd like to share a quote with you, which go like this: “Time is said to be money, but it is more-it is life.” It is true that time is great value. After all, anything is more precious than time. In our daily life, we've often been told that lose time will never return. To be honest, I am used to spend plenty of time playing computer games, what made me fall far behind my classmates. Have realized how much time l wasted, I've made up my minds to work hard to catch up with them. Wasting time is just like wasting part of our lives. Such valuable is time that if you want your dreams to come true, you should make the more of it.
