　　“Can I see my baby?” asked the happy new mother．The bundle(婴儿包)was placed in her arms and when she moved the fold of cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped － the baby had been born without ears．Time, however, proved that the baby’s hearing was perfect except his appearance．

　　One day when he rushed home from school and threw himself into his mother’s arms，he cried out bitterly, “A boy, a big boy…called me－a f－…freak．” She sighed, knowing that his life was to be endless of heartbreaks．

　　He grew up，handsome for his misfortune．A favorite with his fellow students, he might have been class president, but for that．He developed a gift for literature and music．

　　The boy’s father had a talk with the family doctor．Could nothing be done? “I believe we could graft(移植)on a pair of outer ears，if they could be donated,” the doctor decided．So the search began for a person who would make such a sacrifice for a young man．Two years went by．Then, “You’re going to the hospital，son．Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need．But it’s a secret．” said the father．

　　The operation was a brilliant success．His talents blossomed into genius．School and college became a series of successes．Later he married and entered the diplomatic(外交)service．“But I must know!” he urged his father．“Who gave so much for me? I could never do enough for him．” “I do not believe you could,” said the father， “but the agreement was that you are not to know…not yet．” The years kept the secret, but the day did come …one of the darkest days that ever passed through a son．He stood with his father over his mother’s casket(棺材)．Slowly and tenderly，the father stretched forth a hand and raised the thick，reddish-brown hair to let out the secret．

　　Whether the hair is long or short,it must be regularly brushed and washed.For greasy（油腻）hair,especially if the owner lives in a town,it may be necessary to wash the head every four to five days.Those with a dry hair can usually go a little longer,but this is a matter for the individual to decide.

　　If a woman is not able to go to hairdressers very often,it is important that she chooses a style she can easily manage for herself,and this nearly always means that the first cut must be very standard（标准的）。

　　One thing should be remembered though,that is ,whatever you apply to（用于）the head can have some effect upon the skin and therefore anything strong should be used with care.Or you may use milder products.As for style,this must be studied according to what is the latest fashion and also to suit the individual at different times of the life.

　　Young people who have spots of skin troubles on their faces,should take particular care to make sure that the hair is both clean and does not touch the affected piece of skin.Hair is very difficult to keep completely clean and therefore anyone running their hands through their hair and afterwards touching their face ,or letting their hair fall over their faces,might spread infection（感染）from one place to another.Good hair does a lot to the effect of a face,so if you want to look nice,please start with your hair.

　　From：raymondyuen@ canda．net

　　Subject：Complaint

　　Dear Mr．Price,

　　I have eaten in your restaurant many times and have always been happy with the food and service．This makes what happened last Saturday even more disappointing．It was my son’s birthday so we booked a no-smoking table at your restaurant for 7∶30 p. m．We arrived on time but were told that our table was not yet ready．At 8∶00 p. m., we were given a table in the smoking section．I asked to move but I was told that there were no other tables．A lot of people were smoking so it was uncomfortable and unhealthy．

　　Our first waitress, Janet, was very polite and helpful．She gave us free drinks for waiting so long．Our food also came quickly and looked fresh and tasty．When my wife had eaten most of her meal, she found a dead cockroach(蟑螂)in her vegetables．She was shocked and wanted to leave．At first, the waitress told us it was a piece of garlic．When we told her that garlic does not have legs, she apologized and took the food away．

　　We asked for the bill, expecting not to pay for my wife’s meal．Nobody came．After 15 minutes, I asked to see the manager．The head waiter told us that you were on holiday．I complained again about the horrible cockroach．He told me Janet had finished work．He didn’t believe my story and gave me a bill for three meals．I argued with him but was force to pay．

　　The waitress, Janet, was always friendly, but I would like an apology from your impolite head waiter and a full refund(退款)for our meal．It cost ＄68．Until then, I will not be eating at your restaurant or recommending it to anyone．You can contact me at 742-3254 or through e-mail if you want more information．

　　Thank you for your attention．

Yours sincerely,

Raymond Yuen

　　People in Mutsuhito, Japan, lived through one hundreds, and sometimes thousands, a day．But they couldn’t get used to it．

　　What was it? It was a string of earthquakes that made the small town shake all the time．This went on for more than a year．Sometimes the quakes were very small．Only certain instruments could pick them up．At other times, the quakes damaged houses and land．The people were always afraid．They wished they knew how to stop the ground from shaking．

　　People all over the world would like to know when an earthquake is coming．But an earthquake is almost always a surprise．Under the surface of the Earth, huge blocks of rock drift apart or slide against each other．The ground above splits apart or rumbles and shakes．

　　Some scientists hope to predict quakes by keeping a close watch on animals．It seems that some animals can sense an earthquake coming．In 1969, animals in a Chinese zoo began to act funny one day．Swans flew out of their pond．A panda sat down, covered its eyes with its paws, and groaned．The animals seemed to know that something was about to happen．And it did．An earthquake struck．What was it that the animals sensed? Scientists are trying to find out．

　　Keeping close track of the Earth’s magnetic force in earthquake areas may also help．A few years ago, in Hollister, CA, scientists kept a record of the area’s magnetic pull．For one week, the force grew stronger．Then it weakened suddenly．A day later, an earthquake struck．

　　It may become possible to know when and where an earthquake will happen．But it will be much harder to stop one from happening．

　　Many scientists think that the Earth’s covering is not smooth．They say the earth’s “skin” is made up of huge puzzle pieces called plates．Land and ocean floors make up these huge plates．Under the Earth’s crust(外壳), or plates, is hot rock．The plates float on top of this rock．Sometimes the rock forces its way through the crust．What happens then? A volcano is born! More often, the rock moves and forces the plates to pull away from each other, causing earthquakes to happen．(Volcanoes and earthquakes often go together．)

　　Sometimes, the plates end up on top of each other．When this happens, the land above may look strange．Seen from the air, there seems to be a long scar in the Earth．This is called a fault(断层)．The areas along faults have more earthquakes than other parts of the Earth．

　　For now, we’ll just have to shake along with the Earth．It goes through millions of small earthquakes every year．With luck, you won’t feel a thing!

(1)

In order to predict earthquakes, scientists can _______． Which is wrong according to this passage?
[　　]
A．	keep a close watch on animals
B．	keep close track of the Earth’s magnetic force in earthquake areas
C．	keep inventing instruments to pick up every earthquake
D．	keep a record of earthquake area’s magnetic pull of force

(2)

When the rock forces its way through the Earth’s crust, _______．
[　　]
A．	a volcano is born
B．	an earthquake happens
C．	a fault forms
D．	the Earth’s covering becomes smooth

(3)

How does a fault form?
[　　]
A．	When California rests on two separate plates．
B．	When the plates end up on top of each other．
C．	Before an earthquake happens．
D．	After volcano comes．
