  To celebrities, what question is frequently asked besides their loving affairs? It's plastic surgery.And many perfect-looking pop stars keep denying they have changed their facial appearance.Some even get angry at any claims that they've been under the knife

  So it was a bit shocking when Chinese singer Heng Yue boldly announced last month she would have plastic surgery, becoming the first celebrity to do so in the mainland.

  Heng, with a broad range and penetrating(有穿透力的)voice, had been invited to sing the theme song for Chen Kaige's film The Promise and TV drama such as Ma Dashuai and Liu Laogen.But the popularity of the songs shaded her.Her look just wasn't very charming.

  On March 24, Heng, who declined to reveal her age, endured2 18 operations on her face.It was a comprehensive 8-hour plastic surgery job including nose reshaping and eye operations, said to cost around 650,000 yuan.

  “I am so fond of singing,” said Heng, “I'm hoping to go further in my career as a singer.However, I've found my plain looks are making me less competitive.”

  Heng said that many TV shows were interested in her singing, but rejected her, saying that she looked just so so.So the chance went to someone who looked more attractive or charming on camera.

  Certainly, Heng's not the only star to go seeking perfection.Tian Yungcheng, a doctor specializing in plastic surgery, said that Heng was just one of about 200 stars he had operated on.

  “Whenever we turn on the TV, mose of the celebrity faces on stage, I believe, have had operation.” Tian said.

  “Pop stars are reluctant to tell anyone about their surgery since they're under the pressure from the public who find it hard to accept fake beauty.But I don't see it as wrong if a person just wants to be perfect or have a more pleasant look for others to appreciate.” Tian said.

The drug store was closing for the night and Alfred Higgins was about to go home when his new boss approached him.
“Empty your pockets please, Alfred,” Sam Carr demanded in a firm voice.
Alfred pretended to be shocked but he knew he had been caught. From his coat he withdrew a make-up kit, a lipstick and two tubes of toothpaste.
“I’m disappointed in you, Alfred!” said the little gray-haired man.
“Sorry, sir. Please forgive me. It’s the first time I’ve ever done such a thing,” Alfred lied, hoping to gain the old man’s sympathy.
Mr Carr’s brow furrowed as he reached for the telephone, “Do you take me for a fool? Let’s see what the police have to say. But first I’ll call your mother and let her know her son is heading to jail.”
“Do whatever you want,” Alfred shot back, trying to sound big. But deep down he felt like a child. He imagined his mother rushing in, eyes burning with anger, maybe in tears. Yet he wanted to come quickly before Mr. Carr called the police.
Mr. Carr was surprised when Mrs. Higgins finally arrived . She was very calm, quiet and friendly. “Is Alfred in trouble?” she asked.
“He’s been stealing from the store,” the old man coolly replied.
Mrs. Higgins pulled out her hand and touched Mr. Carr’s arm with great gentleness as if she knew just how he felt. She spoke as if she did not want to cause him any more trouble. “What do you want to do, Mr.Carr?”
The woman’s calm and gentle manner disarmed the once-angry store-owner, “I was going to get a cop. But I don’t want to be cruel. Tell your son not to come back here again and I will let it go.” Then he warmly shook Mrs. Higgins’ hand.
Mrs. Higgins thanked the old ma for his kindness, then mother and son left. They walked along the street in silence. When they arrived home his mother simply said, “Go to bed, you fool.”
In his bedroom, Alfred heard his mother in the kitchen. He felt no shame, only pride in his mother’s actions. “She was smooth!” he thought. He went to the kitchen to tell her how great she was, but was shocked by what he saw.
His mother’s face looked frightened, broken. Not the cool, bright face he saw earlier. Her lips moved nervously. She looked very old. There were tears in her eyes.
This picture of his mother made him want to cry. He felt his youth ending. He saw all the troubles he brought her and the deep lines of worry in her grey face. It seemed to him that this was the first time he had ever really seen his mother.
【小题1】Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A.It was the first time Alfred had stolen anything.
B.Mr. Carr set a trap to catch Alfred stealing.
C.Alfred tried to sound big to hide his fear.
D.Mr. Carr had planned to forgive Alfred from the beginning.
【小题2】What does the underlined word “disarmed” probably mean?
A.annoyedB.got overC.convincedD.made less angry
【小题3】What was the mother’s attitude towards Alfred?
A.She felt disappointed with him.B.She was strict with him.
C.She was supportive of him.D.She was afraid of him.
【小题4】What impressed Alfred most about his mother at the drugstore was_______.
A.how angry she wasB.how effective she handled Mr. Carr.
C.that she was able to save himD.that she didn’t cry
【小题5】From the last paragraph, we know Alfred________.
A.was no longer a youth.B.felt proud of his mother
C.wanted his mother to be happyD.felt guilty and regretful for his deed.

     Ever felt like destroying the car in front of you when you're
stuck in an endless traffic jam?
     Well ,the Spanish company StopStress is offering clients(客户 )
the possibility of doing just that-but in controlled ,safe conditions.
     Clients can also destroy computers, mobile phones and TV sets
in what the company calls" destructible therapy" ( therapy : treatment

     "We target the machines that cause the most stress in modern

deserted cars that still work. Heavy-metal music is used to excite
the clients. They are given protective suits and glasses, helmets and
huge hammers.
     Most people's rage only lasts for 5 to 10 minutes. But some go
on for hours : they beat cars on which they've put the names of people
or ideas they would like to get rid of.
     "Some even get together to turn the car over, "Arribas says. A
session costs 60 euros(US $80)per person.
     Arribas says the idea came to him when he was having trouble
parking his car.
     "Dozens of people have used the therapy, which helps people
become aware of their stress level and helps them to slow down,"
Arribas explained.
     "It's better to channel violence in a controlled way than to get
it out on one's husband and wife or in a traffic jam. "he added.

planning to extend its market beyond Spain's borders.
