阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和 D)中,选出最佳逢项。

                                      A

                                ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆

            After a young woman texted DoSomething.org with a heartbreaking cry for help,the non-profit volunteer group's CEO, Nancy Lublin,knew she needed to do something. She decided to create a way for people struggling with crises (危机) in their lives to release their strong feelings. She quickly founded a separate organization called Crisis Text Line,a free 24-hour nationwide mental health service that gives people access to crisis coimse/ors (辅导顾问) right at their fingertips.

             “Since it was started in 2013,the service has exchanged nearly 10 million texts from people experiencing mental health issues,bullying and more ,” Lublin said. “About 30 percent of messages the program receives refer to suicide and depression.”

              The beautiful thing about Crisis Text Line is that these are strangers counseling other strangers on the most private issues,and getting them from ‘hot moments,to 'cold moments',” Lublin explained in a TED Talk about the service.

              While all crisis lines are important and save lives,Crisis Text Line stands out because it can also provide important information to help prevent these events from happening in the first place. Since it was started,the program has been studying messages,the timing of messages and their locations to get usefiil data. For example,analyses show that texts about issues with eating disorders seem to increase on Mondays. Analyses also show that Montana is the state with the greatest number of texts that mention suicide.

             Lublin hopes that the information that Crisis Text Line can glean will help inform new policies in schools,governments and homes across the country. “Data evidence makes policy,research, journalism,policing,school boards(教育委员会),and almost everything better,” she said. “I don't think of myself as a mental health activist. I think of myself as a national health activist.”

   A. start a profit volunteer organization

   B. become a professional crisis counselor

         You can tell a lot about people by looking at their hair 一 not just whether they brush,spray,or blow-dry. Scientists have found a way to use hair to figure out where a person is from and where that person has been. The fTnding could help solve crimes among other useful applications.

          Water is central to the new technique. The liquid makes up more than half an adult human's body weight. Our bodies break water down into hydrogen (氢) and oxygen. Atoms of these two elements end up in our tissues,fingernails,and hair.

           But not all Water is the same. Hydrogen and oxygen atoms can vary in how much they weigh. In the case of hydrogen,for example,there are three types according to their weights. Each type is called a hydrogen isotope (同位素) .And depending on where you live,tap water contains different isotopes.

            Can hair record this information? That's what James R. Ehleringer,an environmental chemist at the University of Utah,wondered. To find it out,he and his colleagues collected hair from hair stylists in 65 cities in 18  states across the United States. Even though people drink a lot of bottled water these days,the researchers have found that people's hair has the same isotopes as found in the local tap water. That's  probably because- people usually prepare their food with the local water.

            Authorities can now use the information to analyze hair samples from criminals,or crime victims and to narrow their search for clues. For example,one hair sample used in Ehleringer's study came from a.man who had moved from San Francisco to Salt Lake City. As his hair grew,it reflected his change in location.

5. What do we know about the hydrogen isotopes,according to Paragraph 3 ?

   A. They are classified by^?ize.

   B. Each type of them differs in weight.

   C. They can improve the quality of tap water.

   D. Some of them cannot combine with oxygen.

6. Why is it possible to know where people are from by analyzing their Hkir?

   A. People use the same bottled water.

   B. People wash their hair in different ways.

   C. People's hair is affected by the weather of the places they stay.

   D. People's hair indicates the type of water in the places they stay.

7. The last paragraph is mainly to show .

   A. how to recognize criminals

   B. how to collect hair samples

   C. the usefulness of hair analysis

   D. the process of Ehleringer's study

8. Where does this text probably come from?

   A. A lesson plan.       B. A news report.

   C. A physics textbook.  D. A tourist guidebook.

            There were rumors (传闻) on the Internet on Thursday that Teen Voguey started in 2003,would be stopped. Vogue, however, announced on Thursday afternoon in a statement that it would absorb Teen Vogue only from the business side,with the editorial side of Teen Vogue remaining complete as of now.

            The younger magazine has become the most read magazine for both teenage and adult fashion lovers alike over its 13-year run. It has recently received high praise for featuring three models of color on its August 2015 cover.

            Teen Vogue has long been considered a survivor in the teen magazine landscape. As The New York Times noted in 2013,the year the magazine celebrated its 10th anniversary, “It has outlasted(比…持续时间长) YM, Elle Girl,Teen People,Cosmo Girl!and Teen.”

           However,like many other print magazines,The New York Times also reported that the magazine had seen a drop in sale of “half of what they were when,the magazine began”. Only time can tell what will come next for the magazine,but for now,it lives to see another day.
