6.Are you facing a situation that looks impossible to fix?
In 1969,the pollution was terrible along the Cuyahoga River near Cleveland,Ohio.It(61)was(be)unimaginable that it could ever be cleaned up.The river was so polluted that it(62)actually(actual)caught fire and burned.Now,years later,this river is one of(63)themost outstanding examples of environmental cleanup.
But the river wasn't changed in a few days(64)oreven a few months.It took years of work(65)to reduce(reduce)the industrial pollution and clean the water.Finally,that hard work paid off and now the water in the river is(66)cleaner(clean)than ever.
Maybe you are facing an impossible situation.Maybe you have a habit(67)that/whichis driving your family crazy.Possibly you drink too much or don't know how to control your credit card use.When you face such an impossible situation,don't you want a quick fix and something to change immediately?
While there are(68)amazing(amaze)stories of instant transformation,for most of us the(69)changes(change)are gradual and require a lot of effort and work,like cleaning up a polluted river.Just be(70)patient(patience).

4.It was a secret Eli kept until he was 8years old.
"He would scream,like we were hurting him when we tried to put a skirt on him."recalled Grace,his mother.That was when Eli was an 18-month-old baby girl already rejecting anything female.
Now,Eli's mother and Eli are sharing their story with CBS New York.Eli still remembers being a baby,and rejecting putting on a dress."Oh,I remember that,"he said."It was like torture."Now Eli is 11years old.He is,by all accounts,a happy,active boy who never doubted he was born the wrong sex.Eli said to CBS New York.It was hard to keep that secret for 8years though,"It was kind of hard because I hadn't really told anyone ever,"he said.
"He said,‘I have a secret,and the secret is I don't want to be a girl.I think I'm a boy,'"Grace recalled."…I thought,‘I don't know what we're going to do,but we're going to figure it out.'"
CBS New York reports that it was a less clear path for Ryan,now a 21-year-old man.He,too,was born female,but never felt like one.
He didn't understand his feelings at the time.Then he learned about what it meant to be transgender on the Internet,and it began to make sense."It was a relief to know what exactly I was or am,"he said.
Ryan's mother said at first it was hard to accept."It's a scary thing to think about,"she said.But she came around."I was glad my son is able to become the person he needed to be,"she said.
Experts say the kind of family support both Ryan and Eli are getting is of great significance.Without it,many transgender kids suffer from anxiety,depression and high rates of suicide.
"We see a lot of kids with a lot of mental health concerns,and we also see that those mental health concerns really reduced when the family is on board,"said Jean Malpas of Ackerman Institute for the Family,a non-profit research organization to CBS New York.
Grace said for her it went from a situation that felt really confusing and difficult to one that she now celebrates."We feel so lucky to have him."she said.

29.According to the passage,Eli would scream becauseB.
A.Eli rejected care and love from parents
B.Eli didn't want to be dresses as a girl
C.Eli didn't want to wear anything at all
D.Eli's parents were torturing their baby
30.Which word can best describe Ryan's feelings before he turned to the Internet?A
A.Confused.     B.Angry.
C.Relieved.     D.Confident.
31.This passage is probably taken fromA.
A.a news report
B.a scientific journal
C.a survey report
D.an academic essay
32.What can we learn from this passage?C
A.Many people feel difficult to accept who themselves really are.
B.Knowledge about transgender should be made known to more people.
C.Support from family is important to special groups like the transgender.
D.Many non-profit organizations are trying to help people like Eli and Ryan.
