Cody was an outgoing black dog with a big tail. Our dog Tasha was a similar spirit. she shared the yard with Cody, they soon became fast friends.
We often saw a ball of black and white fur as they neck and neck toward some unlucky bird that had just landed in the yard. The only time I saw any between them was when we fed Tasha. Cody would jump up, to share. However, Tasha would bare her teeth and shout . Finally, Cody would slip away with his tail between her legs.
One day my husband came home quite . He had just found Cody by the side of the road, killed by a speeding truck. Tasha cleaned Cody’s smooth fur with her nose and mouth and whined(哀鸣). Over the next few weeks, Tasha was in low with her tail between her legs. She missed her old friend.
At the same time, Tasha’s food dish disappeared. We replaced it with another, to have that one disappear as well. There bowls, plates, even an old coffee can. They all disappeared. Finally, the was solved when our neighbor knocked on our door, her arms loaded with the missing dishes, some still half-full of dog .
“Are these yours?” she asked. “I saw Tasha headed toward the , so I followed her. Then I noticed all these dishes in a pile.”
, I asked, “Where were they?”
“It was right by the place where Cody .”
Could Tasha have been begging her old friend back by offering him the one thing she to give him when he was alive?

I ran into a local store today to pick up a few things. With an important meeting to attend, I was in a hurry , so I didn’t take a cart (手推车) on my way inside. As I walked between the shelves in the store, I passed by a young couple and their baby. I continued going through the store, picked up a few items I needed and ended up standing behind this couple in the checkout line.
While waiting, I noticed that the young father was holding his money tightly and nervously. The young mother was carrying a baby in her arms and asked the cashier (收银员) for a job application.
When the total was rung up, they had to pick items out of their cart because they didn’t have enough money. But all their items were basic necessities(必需品) that they needed most. It just broke my heart to watch the couple try to think about what they could do without. However, they were able to whittle down their items and paid the bill with the money that they had.
After they left, I quietly asked the cashier to add those items to mine. The cashier rang everything up, and then got me a shopping cart. We put in their items and I hurried over to their car. “This is for you,” I told them.
The young father just looked at me with such appreciation and thanked me. I will never forget the expression in his eyes. As I was getting into my car, they drove over. The young mother said, “Miss, thank you so much.”
Tears welled up in my eyes---as they are again now, while I write this. “You are so welcome. Pay it forward some day,” I replied.

Scottish pupils recently were part of a new scheme that allowed them to take their exams online. Those examinations provided a glimpse of the future in May when 120 candidates in 10 centers in Scotland sat in front of computers to take a multiple-choice online exam. Although candidates were using a computer mouse instead of a pen, in all other ways the exam was the same as normal.
Exam rooms were set out to ensure that only the candidates and the teachers were able to see the individual screens. The online answers were sent directly to a safe area. According to the students at St Ninian’s in East Renfrewshire who took an online French exam, it was definitely the most motivated they had ever felt when taking an exam.
“I could go as fast as I wanted to, rather than as slow as everyone else wanted to,” said one. “It was better than looking back and forth between the questions,” said another. One pupil even described it as fun.
Their head teacher, Dorothy Graham, was not so surprised, “They are so used to doing things on computers that it seems natural for them. The boys liked it because they didn’t have to worry about how neat their work was.” The only things that worried her were power cuts and systems’ crashing.
It’s thought that online exams could be the norm (常态) in about five years. However, last year there were warnings about computerizing exams in England and Wales. It’s thought that it could be unfair to some students if they come from homes without access to a computer.
1. In the first paragraph the underlined word “candidates” probably means _________.
A. teachers who are supposed to prepare the test
B. people who grade the students’ papers
C. teachers who oversee the students in the exam rooms
D. pupils who take the online exam
2.Pupils who take this kind of exam _________.
A. do not need to write the answers down
B. must write the answers clearly with a mouse
C. have to answer the questions very quickly
D. can answer the questions for as long as they like
3. Why do people think it is unfair to some students without computers at home?
A. Because they are not able to take the exam at home.
B. Because they can’t be allowed to take the exams if they don’t have computers at home.
C. Because they can’t operate computers as well as those who have computers at home.
D. Because they are worried about how neat their work is.
4.According to the head teacher, pupils won’t be able to take the exam if _________.
A. they don’t have a computer at home
B. the computer system breaks down
C. the teacher sees individual screen
D. they take pens into the exam rooms
5.We can learn from the passage that it is mainly about ________.
A. computers in modern schools
B. taking exams online
C. testing computers in classroom
D. taking a multiple-choice exam

Worry problems are everywhere in our daily life. How to solve them? The answer is that we must equip ourselves to deal with different kinds of worries by learning the three basic steps of problem analysis. The three steps are:
Get the facts
Why is it so important to get the facts? Unless you have the facts, you can’t possibly attempt to solve your problem intelligently. Without the facts, all you can do is wondering around in confusion. It is not an easy job to get facts. When you are worried, your emotions are riding high. 1. .
When trying to get the facts, you can pretend that you are collecting this information not for yourself but for some other person. __2.. You can also pretend that you are a lawyer preparing to agree. Try to get all the facts both on your side and the other side of the case. You will generally find the truth lies somewhere in between.
3.
Whenever you are worried, write down the questions that make you worry. And write out all the various steps you could take and then the probable consequences of each step. For example, what am I worrying about? What can I do about it? Here is what I’m going to do about it. After carefully weighing all the facts, you can calmly come to a decision.
Act on that decision.
4. . How can you break the worry habit before it breaks you? Crowd worry out of your mind by keeping busy. Plenty of action is one of the best ways to cure worry 5. . If you know a situation is beyond your power, say to yourself: “ It is so; it can’t be otherwise.” Don’t permit little things to ruin your happiness. Try to cultivate a mental attitude that will bring you peace and happiness.
A. Analyze the facts.
B. Accept what can’t be avoided.
C. But here are two ideas that can help you see the facts in a clear and objective way.
D. There comes a time when you must decide and never look back.
E. Unless you take your action, all your face-finding and analysis is a sheer waste of energy.
F. Decide how much anxiety a thing may be worth.
G. This will help you to take a cold and fair view of the evidence

While some scientists overlook the existence of a sixth sense for danger, a new research from Washington University in St. Louis has discovered a brain area that clearly acts as an early warning system and helps us adjust our behavior to avoid dangerous situations.
"Our brains are better at picking up not obvious warning signs than we previously thought," said Joshua Brown, a PhD in psychology in the issue of the journal Science.
The findings offer exact scientific evidence for a new way to form a concept of the complex control processes taking place in and around the ACC, a brain area located near the top of the frontal lobes(耳垂) and along the walls that divide the left and right hemispheres(大脑半球).
"In the past, we found activity in the ACC when people had to make a difficult decision, or after they make a mistake," Brown said. "But now we find that this brain area can actually learn to recognize when you might make a mistake, even before a difficult decision has to be made. So the ACC appears to act as an early warning system—— it learns to warn us in advance when our behavior might lead to a negative outcome, so that we can be more careful and avoid making a mistake."
By providing a clearer picture by which we self monitor and control our behavior, the study is an important step in efforts to develop more effective treatments for mental illnesses. It also provides a new way of understanding inappropriate behaviors that often accompany mental illnesses.
"Our results suggest how injury of the ACC can lead to breakdowns in the early warning system, so that the brain fails to stop or control inappropriate behavior ahead of time," said Brown. "On the other hand, in those persons with mental disorder, the ACC might warn us of an upcoming problem even when no problem is in the existence."
Known to be an important part of the brain's control system, the ACC is believed to help adjust between cold, hard, fact-based reasoning and emotional responses, such as love, fear or expectation.
1.According to the passage, the ACC____________.
A. refers to the sixth sense for danger
B. deals with obvious warning situations
C. connects the left and right hemispheres
D. sends warning messages in advance
2.The new research is beneficial because it ________ .
A. provides a new way of avoiding mistakes
B. adjusts emotional responses in time of danger
C. helps find better treatments for mental illnesses
D. assists people in predicting and avoiding danger
3.The new research helps us understand _________.
A. why we are likely to make mistakes when the ACC is badly injured
B. why people with illnesses usually have so many strange behaviors
C. how the ACC works when something dangerous happens
D. how our brain warns us of failure in advance
