My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games. Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around. One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up (咬破) one of Dads shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl!” She looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes. Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet. She went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course shed let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when wed be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. She never barked (吠) or tried to get away. Funny thing is she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she loved everyone. Now many years have passed since Brownie died of old age. I still miss the days when she was with us. 51. What would Brownie do when someone was ill in the family?A. Look at them sadly. B. Keep them company. C. Play games with them. D. Touch them gently. 52. We can infer from Paragraph 2 that Brownie _. A. would eat anything when hungry B. felt sorry for her mistakeC. loved playing hide-and-seek D. disliked the authors dad53. Why does the author say that Brownie was more than just a family pet?A. She was treated as a member of the family.B. She played games with anyone she liked. C. She was loved by everybody she met.D. She went everywhere with the family. 54. Which of the following best describes Brownie?A. Shy. B. Polite. C. Brave. D. Caring. BWhen Cathleen Gardiners twins were born 17 years ago, doctors told her that they were a pair in a million. One had Down syndrome (低能综合症), while the other did not. Here, Cathleen tells their touching story. Since Sean was born 17 years ago, I have always thought that he is just as wonderful as his brother and sister. Though he had a disability (残疾), we have never viewed him as a burden. He has always been a blessing. The doctors explained that though they were twins, they came from two different eggs. Lisa could walk at 11 months old, while Sean didnt take his first steps till he was three. By two, Lisa was talking a lot, but Sean wasnt able to speak until he was nearly four. For the first five years of his life, Sean needed a great deal of care. Looking after him was my full-time job, though I also worked as a technical adviser in a computing company. We never treated them differently. We gave them the same toys and spoke to them in the same way. We encouraged Sean to keep up with Lisa, even though he never could, and we would help him develop his abilities. We sent them to the same primary school even after doctors advised us that Sean should go to a school for the disabled. We had to explain to Lisa that he wouldnt learn as quickly as she would. She told us that shed help him with his school work. Having a non-disabled twin has really helped Sean develop. The love they share has given him a great deal of support. Now Sean and Lisa are both about to finish high school. I dont think he would have done nearly as well today without Lisas help.55. At least how many children does Mrs. Gardiner have? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. One.56. The third paragraph mainly tells us that _. A. the couple treated the twins equally B. Cathleen did all she could to look after Sean C. the couple didnt follow the doctors advice D. the couple encouraged Sean to grow up57. All of the following statements are true except_.A. Sean couldnt develop so well without his parents great effort.B. As a twin sister, Lisa gave Sean a lot of help.C. As a mother of a disabled child, Cathleen must have suffered a lot.D. Cathleen loved Sean more than Lisa because of his disability. 58. This passage tells us that _. A. love can do wonders B. nobody is foolish or clever C. being stupid doesnt matter D. all men are born equal CDear Readers,Think about an 11-year-old child spending her days washing clothes, looking after a baby brother, and doing hard work on the farm.Think about the poor little girlshe knows there will not be enough food for dinner, and has no water to drink because it is not clean.

Through Save the Children, you can help Marias mother get better crops from their farm, and earn the money to support the family.To help Maria most, your money is to be put together with other helpers, so hardworking people can help themselves.
