Janet Fein, aged 84, received her bachelor's degree from the University last week, having waited a long time for her chance to reach that goal.
Growing up in the Bronx area of New York City, Fein worked at a dress manufacturer after graduating early at the age of 16. After getting married, she spent 18 years staying home with her children. She held several jobs through her life, including 20 years as a secretary at a hospital until her retirement at age 77.
Fein has had a full life. But even then, she was not ready to take it easy and rest during a well-earned retirement. She decided to major in sociology because she felt it was “substantial.”
Fein took part in a state program that lets people who are 65 and older take free classes at public universities in Texasand kept going to class even as her health conditions worsened. During her studies, it became necessary for her to use a walker to get around and she required oxygen. She also developed knee problems. So, Fein took online classes to finish the last part of her degree requirements.
Sheila Rollerson, Fein' scollege advisor, and Carol, the professor told the media that Fein never showed signs of giving up even with all of her difficulties. She would speak up a lot in class and it just made for a more interesting class.
Fein has also inspired Renee Brown, one of Fein's caregivers. At 53, Renee plans to begin nursing school to further her career. “Renee, you can do it. If I can do it you can do it, and you will feel so good about it,” Brown remembers what Fein told her.

Dogs are often called as “man's best friend”, MacKenzie, a four-pound Chihuahua （吉娃娃）, was named winner of the 2020 American Hero Dog Competition on October 19, 2020.
In its tenth year in 2020 the annual contest is the brainchild of American Humane, the country's first national charitable organization founded for the safety and well-being of animals. Often called the “Oscars for dogs”, the award recognizes dogs who make extremely great contributions to society.
The competition of 2020 attracted over 400 entries（参赛者）from across the country. These heroic dogs have gone above the call of duty, saving lives, comforting the ill and aged and reminding us of the powerful, age-old ties between animals and people. While all were impressive, it was tiny MacKenzie who won the judges' hearts.
MacKenzie's growth was not easy. Born with a mouth disability, she had to be fed through a tube（管子）for the first year of her life. Despite her own struggles, she always seemed to think more of other animals in need. “Never have I seen such a will to live. Though sick, she carefully looked after the baby animals at the rescue（救助）center,” said her caretaker.
A life-saving operation performed in 2014 gave MacKenzie the ability to eat independently. The seven-year-old chihuahua is now working for the Mia Foundation, an organization that rescues and nurses animals with inborn disabilities. The chihuahua does an excellent job and has raised various animals. She plays nurse, cleans, comforts and hugs them, acting as their mother and teaching them how to socialize, play and have good manners.
In addition to her role as an animal caretaker, MacKenzie also visits schools to educate kids about the importance of accepting physical differences in both animals and people. Her heartwarming and inspiring story makes MacKenzie a worthy receiver of America's top dog honor.
8. What can we infer about the American Hero Dog Competition
A. It was first held in 2010 B. It was held to honor caretakers of dogs.
C. It takes place every ten years. D. It was started by a charitable organization.
9. With what quality did MacKenzie win the award
A. Talent and bravery B. Friendliness and care.
C. Courage and selflessness. D. Confidence and independence.
10. In which aspect can students benefit from MacKenzie's visits
A. Learning from failures. B. Understanding the disabled.
C. Valuing physical health. D. Developing practical ability.
11. What's the best title for the text
A. Dogs Are Man's Best Friends. B. Treat Dogs the Way We Want to Be Treated.
C. Touching Stories between MacKenzie and People D. 2020 American Hero Dog: A Tiny Chihuahua.
D
Depression（抑郁症）in young adult males, ages 18 or 19, is linked to a 20% greater risk of having a heart attack in middle age, according to a new Swedish study.
The link can be partly explained by poorer stress resilience（抗压能力）and lower physical fitness among teens with mental disorders.
The research included 238,013 men born between 1958 and 1962 who were given examinations in adolescence（青春期）and were then followed into middle age（up to the age of 58 years）. A total of 34,503 men were diagnosed（诊断）with a mental disorder.
The study found that a mental disorder in young adulthond was linked to a higher risk of having heart attack by middle pared to men without a mental illness in young adulthood，the risk of heart attack was 20%higher among men with a diagnosis.
“We already knew that men who were physically fit in adolescence seem less likely to keep fitness in later years if they have low stress resilience,” said study author Dr. Bergh, “Our research has also shown that low stress resilience is also connected with a greater tendency towards bad behavior, such as higher risks of smoking, drinking and other drug use.”
“Better fitness in adolescence is likely to help protect against later heart disease, particularly if people stay fit as they age. Physical activities may also reduce some of the bad effects of stress. Those in poor health could benefit from additional support to encourage exercise and develop plans to deal with stress,” said Bergh.
12 How does the author develop paragraph 3
A. By giving examples. B. By listing figures.
C. By making a comparison. D. By drawing a conclusion.
13. What are men with low stress resilience likely to do
A. Smoke more. B. Eat more. C. Sleep less. D. Do less exercise.
14. What will Bergh agree with according to the last paragraph
A. Physical activities add to stress. B. Stress may cause heart disease.
C. Taking exercise is unnecessary. D. Staying fit is of great importance.
15 In which section of a newspaper may this text appear
A. Entertainment. B. Health. C. Education. D. Fashion.

The farmer nodded and let out a whistle(口哨).
Out from the doghouse and down the ramp(斜坡)ran the dog mother followed by four little balls of fur. The little boy pressed his face against the chain link fence. His eyes danced with delight.
The ONE that took the lead caught the boy's eyes. Clearly, it was the biggest and strongest of the all. It was pure white. The boy stared at the moving snowball as it raced closer and closer.

Dogs are often called as “man's best friend”, MacKenzie, a four-pound Chihuahua （吉娃娃）, was named winner of the 2020 American Hero Dog Competition on October 19, 2020.
In its tenth year in 2020 the annual contest is the brainchild of American Humane, the country's first national charitable organization founded for the safety and well-being of animals. Often called the “Oscars for dogs”, the award recognizes dogs who make extremely great contributions to society.
The competition of 2020 attracted over 400 entries（参赛者）from across the country. These heroic dogs have gone above the call of duty, saving lives, comforting the ill and aged and reminding us of the powerful, age-old ties between animals and people. While all were impressive, it was tiny MacKenzie who won the judges' hearts.
MacKenzie's growth was not easy. Born with a mouth disability, she had to be fed through a tube（管子）for the first year of her life. Despite her own struggles, she always seemed to think more of other animals in need. “Never have I seen such a will to live. Though sick, she carefully looked after the baby animals at the rescue（救助）center,” said her caretaker.
A life-saving operation performed in 2014 gave MacKenzie the ability to eat independently. The seven-year-old chihuahua is now working for the Mia Foundation, an organization that rescues and nurses animals with inborn disabilities. The chihuahua does an excellent job and has raised various animals. She plays nurse, cleans, comforts and hugs them, acting as their mother and teaching them how to socialize, play and have good manners.
In addition to her role as an animal caretaker, MacKenzie also visits schools to educate kids about the importance of accepting physical differences in both animals and people. Her heartwarming and inspiring story makes MacKenzie a worthy receiver of America's top dog honor.
8. What can we infer about the American Hero Dog Competition
A. It was first held in 2010 B. It was held to honor caretakers of dogs.
C. It takes place every ten years. D. It was started by a charitable organization.
9. With what quality did MacKenzie win the award

Depression（抑郁症）in young adult males, ages 18 or 19, is linked to a 20% greater risk of having a heart attack in middle age, according to a new Swedish study.
The link can be partly explained by poorer stress resilience（抗压能力）and lower physical fitness among teens with mental disorders.
The research included 238,013 men born between 1958 and 1962 who were given examinations in adolescence（青春期）and were then followed into middle age（up to the age of 58 years）. A total of 34,503 men were diagnosed（诊断）with a mental disorder.
The study found that a mental disorder in young adulthond was linked to a higher risk of having heart attack by middle age Compared to men without a mental illness in young adulthood，the risk of heart attack was 20%higher among men with a diagnosis.
“We already knew that men who were physically fit in adolescence seem less likely to keep fitness in later years if they have low stress resilience,” said study author Dr. Bergh, “Our research has also shown that low stress resilience is also connected with a greater tendency towards bad behavior, such as higher risks of smoking, drinking and other drug use.”
“Better fitness in adolescence is likely to help protect against later heart disease, particularly if people stay fit as they age. Physical activities may also reduce some of the bad effects of stress. Those in poor health could benefit from additional support to encourage exercise and develop plans to deal with stress,” said Bergh.
12. How does the author develop paragraph 3
A. By giving examples. B. By listing figures.
C. By making a comparison. D. By drawing a conclusion.
13. What are men with low stress resilience likely to do
A. Smoke more. B. Eat more. C. Sleep less. D. Do less exercise.
14. What will Bergh agree with according to the last paragraph
A. Physical activities add to stress. B. Stress may cause heart disease.
C. Taking exercise is unnecessary. D. Staying fit is of great importance.
15. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear
A. Entertainment. B. Health. C. Education. D. Fashion.

A farmer had some puppies(小狗崽)to sell. When He was putting up a sign advertising(做广告)the puppies, a little boy came up with shining eyes and said he wanted to buy a little dog.
The farmer patiently replied that these puppies cost a lot of money because they came from fine parents.
The boy dropped his head for a moment. Then reaching deep into his pocket, he pulled out a handful of change(零钱). “I’ve got thirty-nine cents. Is that enough to take a look ”
The farmer nodded and let out a whistle(口哨).
Out from the doghouse and down the ramp(斜坡)ran the dog mother followed by four little balls of fur. The little boy pressed his face against the chain link fence. His eyes danced with delight.
The ONE that took the lead caught the boy's eyes. Clearly, it was the biggest and strongest of the all. It was pure white. The boy stared at the moving snowball as it raced closer and closer. Amazingly, it stopped just at the foot of the boy. “It seems strong and clever, so it would be a good gift for Mary,” the boy decided.

The farmer said, “Son, it has got something wrong with its leg. It will never be able to run and play with you. ” Looking up at the farmer, the little boy said, “There is something wrong with my leg. I don't run too well myself, and it will need someone who understands. We can be good friends.”
