When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother,“Only a miracle can save him now,” the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully. She hurried to a drugstore(药店)with the money in her hand.
“And what do you want ” asked the salesman. “It’s for my little brother,” the girl answered. “ He’s really, really sick and I want to buy a miracle.” “Pardon?” said the salesman.
“My brother Andrew has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?” “We don’t sell a miracle here, child. I’m sorry,” the salesman said with a smile.
“Listen, if it isn’t enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.”
A well-dressed man heard it and asked,“What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”
“I don’t know,” she answered with her eyes full of tears. “He’s really sick and mum says he needs an operation. But my daddy can’t pay for it,so I have brought all my money.”
“How much do you have?” asked the man. “$ 1.11, but I can try and get some more,” she answered, “Well,what luck,” smiled the man. “$ 1.11,the price of a miracle for little brothers.”

The Internet plays a big part in human life. We use it for work and pleasure. We use it to learn a new language. We find advice on it. We use it to connect with family and friends. We use it to stay in touch with events we care about. The list goes on and on.
As far as the Internet being a part of our lives---well, that train has left the station. There is no going back to an Internet-free life. But can using the Internet too much be bad for our health It might be, say researchers. A new study finds that heavy Internet use may be connected to high blood pressure in a young group: teenagers.
The study results show that teens who spend at least 14 hours a week only online may cause high blood pressure , which makes your heart and blood vessels work too hard. Over time, this extra pressure increases your risk of a heart attack. High blood pressure can also cause heart and other diseases.
The Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Michigan did the study. 335 young people, from 14 to 17 years old, took part in it. 134 of the teens were described as “heavy Internet users”. And researchers found that out of these134 teens, 26 had high blood pressure. The researchers say the study is the first to connect heavy web use with high blood pressure.
The lead researcher is Andrea Cassidy -Bushrow. She said, “Using the Internet is part of our daily life, but it shouldn't ruin us. ” Ms Cassidy- Bushrow adds that it is important for teens to stop to have a rest regularly from their computers or smartphones and do some kind of physical activity. She also suggests that parents shouldn' t let their children use the Internet for more than two hours a day, five days a week.
32. What does the underlined part " that train has left the station" mean in Paragraph 2
A. The train has stopped at the wrong station.
B. Life without the Internet is nowhere to be found.
C. The train has changed its course.
D. There is something wrong with the station.
33. What is Para. 3 mainly about
A. The advantages of Internet use.
B. The harm of high blood pressure.
C. The disadvantages of Internet use.
D. Ways to prevent high blood pressure.
34. Andrea Cssdy Bushrow would agree that___________.
A. teenagersshouldn't use the Internet
B. the Internet will ruin human life in the future
C. regular breaks are necessary when using the Internet
D.smartphones are more harmful than computers
35.What can be used as the best title of the passage
A.Heavy Internet Users Are Mostly Teenagers
B.How to Prevent Teenagers from the Internet
C.Every Coin Has Two Sides---So Does the Internet
D.Too Much Internet Use May Be Bad For Teenagers

One Sunday morning, George Thomas, a baker in a small New England town, was walking through town when he saw a young boy coming toward him, swinging a bird cage in the air. On the bottom of the cage, there were three little wild birds shaking with cold and fear.George Thomas stopped the boy and asked him what he got there.
The boy was happy and told him that there were just some old birds in the cage. When the baker asked him what he would do with the old birds. The boy said casually that he wanted to take the birds home and play with them. He would pull out their feathers to make them fight. He would have a really good time because he would enjoy watching these.
George Thomas was shocked by what the boy said. How could a boy be so rude to wild animals So he continued to ask the boy what he would do to the birds when he got tired of them, because he was such a naughty and cruel boy that he was sure to be tired of them sooner or later. The boy laughed and said that he had a cat, which liked birds, so he would give the birds to his cat. The baker got more worried and decided to help set free the poor birds. So he asked, “How much do you want forthose birds, son ”
The boy looked at him in surprise, wondering if the baker really wanted to buy them. He laughed and reminded the man that they were just plain old field birds. They didn't sing and they were not even pretty. But the baker insisted and continued to ask him how much money he wanted for the birds.
The boy stared at the baker as if he had been crazy and said, “ $ 10 ”

Dear Tom,
I’m sorry to hear that you’re in poor health, missing lots of classes. I am writing to tell you some advice on how to keep healthy.
First of all, you’d better do some jogging in your spare time. Try to spend more time in the stadium or the gym until you are sweating all over. In addition, keeping a balanced diet and cut out the foods with lots of fat. What’s more, it’s important to put yourself in a positive mood. Lastly, enough sleep can help you reduce stress.
I really hope that my advice will be helpful.
Yours,
LiLei

Paragraph 1:
The baker reached in his pocket and took out a tendollar bill. He placed it in the boy's hand. The boy couldn't believe his eyes! Surprised but happy, the boy held the money firmly as if he was afraid that the baker would change his mind. The excited boy ran away quickly, singing his favorite song. The baker looked at the boy walking away and shook his head.
Paragraph 2:
The baker picked up the cage. He said to the birds that he would give them freedom as soon as possible. And he gently carried it to a place near a big tree. Setting the cage down, he opened the door,and by softly tapping the bars persuaded the birds out, setting them free. The baker watched the birds flying in the sky, smiling. He took the empty bird cage home, satisfied with what he had done that day.
