George Stephenson was known as the Father of the Railway. He was the pioneer of locomotives (蒸汽机车), one of the most important inventions in the 19th century.
Stephenson was born in 1781 in Britain. His father made a little money as a fireman in a local coal mine (煤矿) . That meant he had no money for his children’s schooling. When he was George tried to help his parents by doing farm work. He also worked in the mine with his father when he was 14.
Stephenson knew the value of education. When he became an engineman (机师) at Water Row Pit at 17 years old, he paid to study at night. After a year, he knew how to read, write, and do some math. In 1811, Stephenson repaired a broken steam engine (蒸汽机) successfully and that was when he became a local expert on engines.
In 1814, Stephenson built Blucher, his first locomotive. Later, he improved it to give a greater pulling power. For the next five years, Stephenson built sixteen engines. His boss exalted him for his work and asked him to build an 8-mile-long railroad.
Working on this project made Stephenson realize that he could build railways. In 1821, Stephenson got a company to give him a project to build a railway which connected the coal mines in two different areas. He told them that his Blucher locomotive could take the place of fifty horses. On September 27, 1825, the first railway was built in Britain. Carrying 80 tons of goods, Blucher ran for nine miles in two hours at a speed of 15 miles (24 km) per hour.

Many people might, when they see something beautiful, simply say it is beautiful. But Ma Baoli, a pilot of Chinese Southern Airlines, who has won the name of “poetic captain” (诗意机长), recites (背诵) ancient Chinese poetry instead.
While flying over the Yellow River, he thinks of this poem: “Do you not see the Yellow River come from the sky, rushing into the sea, and never come back ” About the Yangtze River, he recites: “Wave after wave, the Yangtze River rushes east, sweeping away with it all our heroes.”
Ma likes reading poetry in his spare time. During the flights, he sometimes shares poems with passengers about the places they are flying over after broadcasting (播送) basic flight information. The perfect mix of poem and flying is deeply loved by the Chinese people and has won him many fans on Sina Weibo, “People like poetry very much, many Chinese people have a special feeling for it,” said Ma.
His father used to paint on the white walls of their house and write poems to go with the paintings. As a child, he enjoyed watching his father do these things and listening to him recite poems. It planted a love of ancient poetry in his early heart.
No wonder his love for poetry has now become a family tradition. Like the father, Ma’s daughters, aged 6 and 9, are also interested in Chinese poems and traditional Chinese culture.

Recently, I’ve read a research report which suggests that having a pet is good for children. It’s impossible for my children who wants to keep a pet at home to read this, because I didn’t let them do.
A study published in JAMA Pediatrics shows that children who had a dog in their first year of life can have less chance of developing asthma (哮喘) by the time they were six than those from dog-free families. It is believed that children are more likely to develop allergies (过敏) if they grow up in super-clean environments.
It is reported that 46%of families in the UK have pets, with dogs and then cats the most common animals. A study of 397 babies in 2012 found that, during their first year of life, those whose parents had dogs or cats had fewer colds than those from homes without pets. The researchers think this is because they brought in more dirt from outside to cause the babies’ immune systems (免疫系统) to work well.
The research shows that having a pet may make children feel more popular and be more understanding. Older studies found that pets increased the amount of time families spent together.
Pets can help children to learn to be responsible as well. Brush the fur, clean the place they sleep, feed them, take more exercise (if you get a dog)…
So keeping pets is really good for improving children’s health and their qualities. However, I still can’t ignore (忽视) the trouble pets may bring. After all, both dogs and cats poop (大便) at home, and they can carry worms or other parasites (寄生虫). Also, it seems that few children look after the animals. They repeatedly asked their parents for help.
( )11. According to the research, children can _____ when they have pets at home.
A.completely stay away from asthma B.live in a super-clean environment
C.be more responsible D.get better grades at school
( )12. What can we infer (推断) from the passage
A.Few families in the UK keep pets.
B.All families will choose to keep pets at home.
C.Children hardly ever share the care of pets with parents.
D.The writer won’t allow her children to keep a pet at home.
( )13. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “qualities” in the last paragraph
A.品德 B.特征 C.质量 D.标准
( )14. The structure of the passage may be ________.
(①=paragraph 1(第一段), ②=paragraph 2...)
B.
C. D.
( )15. The best title of the passage is ________.
A.Keep Pets, Good or Not B.Keep Pets, Clean or Not
C.More Pets, More Responsibility! D.No Pets, No Illness!
