An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me. I was told it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩症). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overing obstacles and going for my dreams.I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he plain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didnt mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weights with me. When we had finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I had won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overing obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”Last summer I received a letter from Matthews parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:Dear Dick,My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I dont have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.I told you someday that I would go to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know Im a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you.

Such groupings as “Help Wanted”, “Real Estate”,“Lost and Found” are made, the rate charged being less than for display advertising. Classified advertisements are a convenience to the reader and a saving to the advertiser. The reader who is interested in a particular kind of advertisement finds all advertisements of that type grouped for him.

It is evident that the reader approaches the classified advertisement in a different frame of mind from that in which he approaches the other advertisements in the paper.

CBlogging may have psychological（心理的）benefits for teens suffering from social anxiety, improving their self-esteem（自尊） and helping them relate better to their friends, according to new research published by the American Psychological Association. Research has shown that writing a personal diary and other forms of expressive writing are a great way to release emotional distress and just feel better, said the studys lead author, Meyran Boniel-Nissim, PhD, of the University of Haifa, Israel. Teens are online anyway, so blogging enables free expression and easy munication with others.Blogging has a stronger positive effect on troubled students well-being than merely expressing their social anxieties and concerns in a private diary, according to the article published online in the APA journal Psychological Services. Opening the blog up to ments（评论） from the online munity intensified （增强）those effects.The researchers randomly（随机地） surveyed high school students in Israel, who had agreed to fill out a questionnaire about their feelings on the quality of their social relationships. A total of 161 students - 124 girls and 37 boys, with an average age of 15 - were selected because their scores on the survey showed they all had some level of social anxiety or distress. All the teens reported difficulty making friends or relating to the friends they had. The researchers assessed the teens self-esteem, everyday social activities and behaviors before, immediately after two months and after the 10-week experiment.Four groups of students were assigned（分配） to blog. Two of those groups were told to focus their posts on their social problems, with one group opening the posts to ments; the other two groups could write about whatever they wanted and, again, one group opened the blog up to ments. The number and content of ments were not evaluated for this experiment. The students could respond to ments but that was not required. Two more groups acted as controls - either writing a private diary about their social problems or doing nothing. Participants in the writing and blogging groups were told to post messages at least twice a week for 10 weeks.Self-esteem, social anxiety, emotional distress and the number of positive social behaviors improved significantly for the bloggers when pared to the teens who did nothing and those who wrote private diaries. Bloggers who were instructed to write specifically about their difficulties and whose blogs were open to ments improved the most. All of these results were consistent at the two month follow-up.64Whats the function of “controls” (Paragraph 4) in the experiment?ATo write down some social problems in a private diary.BTo post messages to the blog and respond to ments.CTo help evaluate the number and content of blog ments.DTo offer a parison for checking the experimental result.65From the experiment we can know that .A. writing private diaries makes no difference to the relief of ones emotional stressB. teenagers opening their blogs up to ments have more psychological benefitsC. the positive effects of expressing ones emotions by blogging dont last very longD. those describing bad relationships on blogs tend to develop more mental problems66What is the main idea of the passage? ABlogging can help reduce social stress and anxiety. BThe research into blogging attracts public attention. CBlogging provides a simple way for munication. DBlog ments have a positive effect on teenagers.DIn a world today of immense technology, population growth and economic flourish, planning for future residential（居住的）and mercial developments needs careful analysis with well thought through assumptions about effects on the environment and the people of the munity.One example of a growing city is Wooster, Ohio, my place of residency. Wooster in the last five years has grown considerably in population, leading to a growth in mercial business. Surrounded by farmland, Woosters planning mission chose to extend the munity into these farm areas in the form of residential and mercial areas.Picture thiscorn fields, old trees, clean air, country roads, and wildlife are all part of the area. Within four years, the people living on this farm step outside on their front porch to view an extensive shopping center containing Wal-Mart, McDonalds, Wendys ,TCBY, and a Cinemark movie theatre. The once quiet road is now a city street with traffic lights, busy with automobiles day and night. The air smells of car exhaust and fast food.Some destruction of farmland is unavoidable when a city expands. Instead of expanding outward ,planning missions should consider interior（内部的）remodeling of a city. Tearing down unusable buildings could remodel many areas inside the city. In addition, mercialized buildings could extend upwards to avoid unnecessary use of land.Environmentally, mercial expansion is detrimental to the land. Besides forms of pollution, wildlife, including both plants and animals, is put at risk. A planning mission could have realized the benefits of environmental protection .Why not preserve the beauty and naturalness of the land while at the same time allowing for growth?With a steady growth of population and the need for more homes and more work places, many problems arise when planning for the future. The hillsides, fields and animal habitats need to be preserved while expanding cities. In the future, a world covered with concrete and asphalt(沥青)could bee reality. Serious research and analysis are needed when planning for the future of our home munities and for the entire globe to avoid such a miserable result.67.It can be inferred from the passage that-. A. Wooster used to be a quiet and peaceful
