21、A heartless thief is believed to have crashed a fund-raiser and made off with a bag of cash meant to help a New York City firefighter pay for life-changing surgery for his 9-year-old son. But little Aidan Sullivan -- who was born with a facial defect and no right ear -- yesterday put up a brave front, with a message for the crook(thief): “I'm going to kick your butt!”
“I want to look normal,”said Aidan, whose father, Tim, is a firefighter in the Bronx. The third-grader has hemi facial micro soma, in which one half of the face doesn't develop correctly.
Last weekend, family friend Peter Drake, a Ridgefield, Conn., firefighter, hosted a fund-raiser, collecting between $8,000 and $9,000. But when the party at a Danbury, Conn., Irish cultural center was over, the money had disappeared.
“At the end of the night, all the money that was donated was put in a zippered bag,” said Tim Sullivan. “A bartender gave the bag to Pete... He had it in his hands. He put it down to go do something, and when he came back, he saw that it was missing.”
Sullivan said his longtime friend -- who has had fund-raisers to pay for Aidan's 10 previous surgeries -- is “devastated.”
“Pete was so upset. He kept saying, I let Aidan down, I let Aidan down,” Colleen Sullivan, 40, recalled.
“We even went Dumpster diving, in case it was thrown out.”
The Sullivans plan to go ahead with the March 1 surgery led by specialists at NYU's Langone Medical Center in Manhattan. The money would have offset the $10,000 to $15,000 that insurance doesn't cover. Yesterday, Aidan said he's not a fan of hospitals and doesn't like to be away from his sister, Kaylee, 4. But he's willing to do it. “I'm excited,” he said. “Finally, an ear.”
【1】Where do you probably read this text from?

D．An advertisement.
【2】How did little Aidan Sullivan feel when he knew the money was missing.

【3】What is the money used for according to this text?
A．To help Aidan Sullivan to have another operation.
B．To help pay for Aidan Sullivan’s life insurance.
C．To return the money the Sullivans owed to the hospital.
D．To help a firefighter who got hurt in the ear.
【4】What is true of little Aidan Sullivan?
A．He hates going to hospital.
B．He will go to New York for the surgery.
C．He didn’t care too much about the lost money.
D．He has received 10 surgeries before.
【5】What can we infer about Pete from the text?

B．He was kind.
C．He was caress.
D．He was a firefighter.
22、 Looking through a magazine in a waiting room recently, I came across an article with the title “My top five most precious possessions”. It was just a few lines of text with pictures, but it caught my imagination.
It’s interesting how inanimate (无生命的) objects can take on such significance and become woven (编织) into a person’s, and sometimes a whole family’s, life history.
Anyway, the article had me considering what my most precious possessions are. It was difficult to choose only five, but here are mine:
An old cardboard box filled with my children’s baby photos.
A yellow pocketsized birthday book of special things (poems, pictures of flowers and trees, etc) given to me by my dad when I was probably about seven or eight years old.
A 21st birthday card from my mum. In it she’s written her congratulations, her love, and her hopes for my future. She died not long after, when I was in my early twenties.
A few ancient but very beautiful botany books that were once my great grandmother’s. She was a botanist in a time when it was relatively unusual for women to be qualified in this field and I think she was probably a remarkable and very interesting woman. I’d like to have known her.
A brooch (胸针) left to me by my muchloved grandmother. It was given to my great grandmother by my great grandfather on his return from World War Ⅰ. It is not worth anything in terms of money. However, it not only stands for a link between four generations of women, but it is also a reminder of one young man’s return from World War Ⅰ.
How about you? I’d love to hear what you feel are your most precious possessions.
【1】What made the writer have the idea of writing the passage?
A.Her love for her relatives.
B.Her rich imagination about the objects.
C.An article in a magazine.
D.Some pictures in an article.
【2】According to the passage, the writer _______.
A.lost her mother at the age of 26
B.was a mother of several children
C.got the yellow birthday book at 8
D.studied botany well when she was young
【3】The writer considered her great grandmother remarkable and interesting because she_______.
A.wrote a large number of botany books
B.left the writer some ancient but beautiful botany books
C.was unusually famous for her achievements
D.could become a botanist in the special time
【4】In the writer’s opinion, something that is thought to be the most precious should be able to ________.
A.change a person’s and even the whole family’s life history
B.have a great effect on one person’s life
C.remind somebody of his or her close relatives
D.show a person’s love and respect for his or her relatives
23、Lead has proved to be a useful metal. 【1】 It goes into car batteries and also helps make bright pigments, used to paint walls, metal work and toys.
【2】 In the worst cases it causes comas（昏迷）and death. More often its effects are slow but harmful. Research shows that lead is a threat to little babies, who are most likely to take in dust and paint chips that contain lead. Their brains can be easily harmed. 【3】
The dangers of lead have long been known. American banned it from paint 40 years ago, and by the late 1990s leaded petrol had been stopped gradually in almost all rich countries. But the effects continue to exist. 【4】 The situation is more alarming in the poor world, where the use of lead-based paints is spreading. As people in Asia and Africa become richer, they start to decorate their homes, but the paint they use, even from pots labeled "lead-free" often contains it.
It is neither difficult nor expensive to stop using lead. 【5】 And industrial use is no exception, because the contamination （污染物）spreads and industrial paint inevitably finds its way into the consumer market. Yet only four sub-Saharan African countries have formally placed bans and local factories are often unaware of the harm that lead causes.
A．Yet lead is also a poison.
B．It turns up everywhere.
C．All countries should ban lead in paint.
D．Half a million American children are diagnosed with lead poisoning.
E．There is no excuse for poor countries to repeat the mistake of rich ones.
F．Taking some simple precautions can help protect you and your family from lead exposure.
G．But only years after exposure are the results apparent in lower IQ and learning disabilities.
